What do astronomers mean by light pollution?

Light pollution is influence of the light on earth (for example, street lighting) which interrupt observations. For example, if you are in a street during the night and street lights are turned on you won't see stars, but if lighting is turned off or if you go out of town you will see stars above.

A 50-kg block is at rest on a 15o slope. A force of 250 N is acting on the block up the slope parallel to it. If the block does
Iteru [2.4K]

The minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the block and the slope is 0.53.

<h3>Minimum coefficient of static friction</h3>

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F - μFs = 0

μFs = F

where;

  • μ is coefficient of static friction
  • Fs is frictional force
  • F is applied force

μ = F/Fs

μ = F/(mgcosθ)

μ = (250)/(50 x 9.8 x cos15)

μ = 0.53

Thus, the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the block and the slope is 0.53.

Given two vectors, A 3i+4)-5k and B-2j+ 6k a) Find the magnitude of each vector. b) Find the angle of each vector to the +X axis
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the easiest ways to work with vectors is to use their components

a) To find the magnitude let's use the Pythagorean theorem

    A² = Ax² + Ay² + Az²

    A = √ 3² + 4² + (-5)² = √ 50

    A = 7.07

    B = √ Bx² + By² + Bz²

     B = √ (-2)² + 0 + 6² = √ 40

     B = 6.32

b) to find these angles the most practical use the concept of cosine directors with the formulas

Vector A

      cos α = X / A

       cos β = y / A

       cos γ = z / A

       cos α = 3 / 7.07

      α = cos⁻¹ 0.424

      α = 64.9º

      cos β = 4 / 7.07

      β = cos⁻¹ 0.5658

      β = 55.5º

      Cos γ = -5 / 7.07

      γ=Cos⁻¹ (-0.7079)

      γ= 135º

Vector B

    cos α = X / B

    cos β = y / B

    cos γ = z / B

    cos α = 0

    α = 90º

    cos β = -2 / 6.32

    β = 108.4º

    cos γ = 6 / 6.32

    γ = 18.3º

c) find A + B

     R = A + B = (3 + 0) i ^ + (4-2) j ^ + (-5 +6) k ^

     R = 3 i ^ + 2j ^ + 1 k ^

d) to find the angles we use the scalar product

     cos θ = A.B / | A | | B |

     A.B = 0 i ^ -8 j ^ -30 k ^

     Cos θ = [R (8 2 + 30 2)] / 7.07 6.32

     Cos θ = 31.05 / 44.68

     θ = 46º

e) find A-B

   R = A-B = (3-0) i ^ + (4- (2)) j ^ + (-5 - 6) k ^

   R = 3 i ^ + 6j ^ -11 k ^

Milwaukee is 121 in Miles Due West of Grand Rapids Maria drives 255 miles in 4.75 hours from Grand Rapids to Milwaukee find her
Katen [24]
Average speed = Distance traveled / time

                            =  255 miles / 4.75 hours

                             = 53.68 miles/hour

If we were solving for velocity the displacement of 121 miles would have been used.

The thermal energy in a hot iron flows into a shirt. what can possibly be said about this situation
Rainbow [258]
The correct answer for this question would be option A. When the thermal energy in a hot iron flows into a shirt, what we can possibly say about this situation is that, the iron is warmer than the shirt. The transfer of heat from the iron to the shirt is called heat conduction. Hope this answer helps.
