  <span>The smaller pull is "F" and the larger pull is "2F". 
The east-west components of F and 2F cancel. 
The north components add to 460 N. 
2Fcos25 + FcosΘ = 460 
2Fsin25 - FsinΘ = 0 
where Θ is measured cw from +y axis (east of north) 
In the second equation, F cancels, leaving 
2sin25 = sinΘ = 0.845 → Θ = 58º East of North 
Using the first equation, then, 
2Fcos25 + Fcos58 = 1.813F + 0.534F = 2.347F = 460 
F = 196 N 
2F = 392 N</span>

Answer:&=32.3°

Small pull=251.38N

Large pull=502.76N

Small pull is 32.3° north east

&=-32.3°

Small pull=416.58N

Large pull=923.17N

Small pull is 32.3°south east

Explanation: Let the small pull have a magnitude of F

Let the larger pull have a magnitude of 2F

On x-component:

Fcos&-2Fsin25=0

F(cos&-2sin25=0

F=0, we have,

Cos&-2sin25=0

&=Cos-1(2sin25)

&=Cos-1 0.8452

&=32.3° or-32.3°

X-component using &=32.3°

Fy+2Fy=Fsin32.3+2Fcos25=590N

F=590/(sin32.3+2cos25)

F=590/(0.5344+1.8126)

F=590/2.3470=251.38N

2F=2×251.38×2=502.76N

For&=-32.3°

Fsin(32.3)+2cos25=590N

F=590/(sin(-32.3) +2cos25)

F=590/(-0.5345+1.8126)

F=590/1.2782 = 461.59N

2F=923.17N

Answer:

Let's begin by explaining that the <u>electromagnetic spectrum</u> is the set of electromagnetic radiations distributed in their different frequencies or wavelengths. So, if we go from the smallest wavelengths known up to now (because according to physics the electromagnetic spectrum is infinite and continuous) to the longest, the electromagnetic spectrum covers the following radiations:  

Gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible light, infrared, radio waves and microwaves:

-Gamma rays: With a wavelength in the order of 10^{-12}m, is a type of ionizing radiation capable of penetrating matter quite deeply and is able to cause serious damage to the nucleus of the cells.

-X rays: With a wavelength between 1m and 10km. It is invisible to the human eye, capable of crossing opaque bodies and is also an ionizing radiation.

-Ultraviolet light (UV): Whose wavelength is approximately between 100 nm and 380 nm; is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye.  

-Visible light: This part of the spectrum is located between ultraviolet light and infrared light (400 nm - 800 nm). It should be noted, the fact the only part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum is visible to humans is because the receptors in our eyes are only sensitive to these wavelengths.

-Infrared: This type of radiation is not visible to the human eye, since its wavelengths are outside the visible spectrum (between 700 nm and 1 mm).  

These waves can be divided into:  

- Near infrared or long wave infrared: it is the least sensitive to color and is easily absorbed by water.  

- Medium or medium wave infrared: it is also insensitive to color and easily absorbed by water and many types of plastics and paints.  

- Far infrared or short wave infrared: it is more penetrating than the long wave and is good for heating metals, these waves also can pass through clear materials.  

This light has many uses, including heating lamps in physiotherapy and medical treatments, heat sensing devices, among others.

-Radio waves: This is a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 10 m to 10,000 m. This type of electromagnetic waves is very well reflected in the ionosphere, the layer of the atmosphere through which they travel directly or using repeaters. In addition, this radiation is important in telecommunications.

Winds are named based on different factors. How are winds usually named?
eduard
Winds are named based on which compass direction the wind is blowing. For example some common ones are NE or N or SE or SW. NE stands for Northeast, N for North, SE for South East and SW for Southwest.

Which of the following statements is most closely associated with Einstein's general theory of relativity?
Fudgin [204]
The answer is the first one. That's because the general theory of relativity is the thing experiencing whatever is experiencing relative to something else. The second answer is just plain wrong. The third answer is just a constant, and doesn't relate to experiencing anything. And the fourth answer is a force between two objects, and it has no second comparison. The first answer is how a subject experiences two different things.
