Which soul contributes the most nitrogen to plants?

If a resultant vector is 12 m/s and the horizontal component is 9 m/s, what is the value of the vertical component? A. 5.8 m/s B

horrorfan [7]

The vertical component is B) 7.9 m/s

Explanation:

A vector can be resolved into its horizontal and vertical components. The horizontal and the vertical components form the sides of a right triangle, in which the resultant corresponds to the hypothenuse, so we can use Pythagorean's theorem:

$R=\sqrt{R_x^2+R_y^2}$

where

R is the resultant vector

Rx is the horizontal component

Ry is the vertical component

In this problem, we have:

R = 12 m/s is the resultant vector

Rx = 9 m/s is the horizontal component

Solving the formula for Ry, we find the vertical component:

$R_y = \sqrt{R^2-R_x^2}=\sqrt{12^2-9^2}=7.9 m/s$

The critical angle for a substance is measured at 53.7 degrees. light enters from air at 45.0 degrees. at what angle it will con

faust18 [17]

When light travels from a medium with greater refractive index $n_1$ to a medium with smaller refractive index $n_2$ , there exists an angle (called critical angle) above which the light is totally reflected, and the value of this angle is given by
$\theta_c = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )$
In this problem, we know that the critical angle is $\theta_c = 53.7^{\circ}$ , so we can find the ratio between the refractive indices of the two mediums:
$\frac{n_2}{n_1} = \sin \theta_c = \sin 53.7^{\circ} =0.81$
and since the second medium is air (n=1.00), the refractive index of the first medium is
$n_1= \frac{n_2}{0.81}= \frac{1.00}{0.81}=1.23$

In the second part of the problem, we have light entering from air ( $n_i = 1.00$ ) at angle of incidence of $\theta_i = 45.0 ^{\circ}$ , into the second medium with $n_r = 1.23$ . By using Snell's law, we can find the angle of refraction of the light inside the medium:
$n_i \sin \theta_i = n_r \sin \theta_r$
$\sin \theta_r = \frac{n_i}{n_r} \sin \theta_i = \frac{1.00}{1.23} \sin 45^{\circ}=0.574$
$\theta_r = \arcsin(0.574)=35.1^{\circ}$

We don't know that at all. The 3rd law says that the REaction is opposite and EQUAL to the action. We don't know where that "twice as much" comes from.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Power is work divided by time:

P = W / t

Work is force times distance:

W = F d

Therefore:

P = F d / t

Given that F = 500 N, d = 60 m, and t = 240 s:

P = 500 N * 60 m / 240 s

P = 125 W

Answer is C.
