Answer: 1.88 N

Explanation:

Data:

Force = 4.00N
angle = 62°
horizontal force = ?

Solution:

The trigonometric ratio that relates horizontal - leg to hypotenuse is the cosine.

That ratio is:

                        horizontal - leg
cos(angle) = -------------------------
                          hypotenuse

So, applied to the force, that is:

                             horizontal force
cos (angle) = -----------------------------------
                                 total force

So, clearing the horizontal component you get:
                                         
horizontal force = force * cos (angle)

Substitute the data given:

horizontal force = 4.00N * cos(62°) = 4.00N * 0.4695 = 1.88 N

Answer: 1.88N

The horizontal force will be equivalent to the total force multiplied by the cosine of the angle between them, that is, since the angle is 62.0 degrees from the ground, we multiply the force by cos 62.
So the total force will be 4cos62 = 1.88 Newtons of force.

An 8.5 kg crate is pulled 5.1 m up a 30 degree incline by a rope angled 17 degrees above the incline. The tension in the rope is
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1. a W_t=746.63 J

  b E_p=212.415 J

  c W_n=183.96J

2. T_e=99.71J

Explanation:

a). The work done by the tension is:

W_t=T*dt

dt=\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=140N*\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=746.63 J

b). The work done potential of gravity

E_p=m*g*h

h=5.1*sin(17)

E_p=8.5kh*9.8*5.1*sin(30)

E_p=212.415 J

c). The work done by the normal force

W_n=N*d_n

d_n=5.1*sin(30)=2.55

W_n=8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)*2.55

W_n=183.96J

2. The increase in thermal energy is:

T_e=F*d

F_k=u_k*m*g=0.271*8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)

F_k=19.5N

T_e=19.55*5.1m

T_e=99.71J

Which of the following improves your range of motion and helps prevent
erma4kov [3.2K]
A. A healthy body composition will improve range of motion and prevent injuries. Staying in a healthy weight range (BMI) prevents overexerting joints. It also helps increase range of motion which in turn reduces injury.

Explanation:

"In 1911, he was the first to discover that atoms have a small charged nucleus surrounded by largely empty space, and are circled by tiny electrons, which became known as the Rutherford model (or planetary model) of the atom."
