32. Only a small percentage of the energy

Physics

Only a small Percentage of the energy emitted by the sun strikes earth because, since the earth is going in circles round and round, the sun only hits part of the earth and not fully. So for example if the earth is going around and the sun hits Africa then in a couple minutes it will go to the next country and that country will have sunlight. Let me know if you need anything else or if this isn't partially correct. GLAD TO HELP! :)

Haley is trying to pull an object upward. The below forces are acting on the object.

ra1l [238]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a reference system.

Suppose that the positive direction of the reference system is upward.

We have that the sum of forces in the vertical axis is given by:

Fy = Fp - Fg

Substituting values:

Fy = 5500 - 6000

Fy = - 500

The negative sign means that the direction of the force with respect to the defined coordinate system is downward.

Answer:

The net force is:

↓ 500N

The traffic on the freeway is moving at a constant speed of 24 m/sm/s. What distance does the traffic travel while the car is mo

ExtremeBDS [4]

Incomplete question as there is so much information is missing.The complete question is here

A car sits on an entrance ramp to a freeway, waiting for a break in the traffic. Then the driver accelerates with constant acceleration along the ramp and onto the freeway. The car starts from rest, moves in a straight line, and has a speed of 24 m/s (54 mi/h) when it reaches the end of the 120-m-long ramp. The traffic on the freeway is moving at a constant speed of 24 m/s. What distance does the traffic travel while the car is moving the length of the ramp?

Answer:

Distance traveled=240 m

Explanation:

Given data

Initial velocity of car v₀=0 m/s

Final velocity of car vf=24 m/s

Distance traveled by car S=120 m

To find

Distance does the traffic travel

Solution

To find the distance first we need to find time, for time first we need acceleration

$(V_{f})^{2}=(V_{o})^{2}+2aS\\ So\\a=\frac{(V_{f})^{2}-(V_{o})^{2} }{2S}\\ a=\frac{(24m/s)^{2}-(0m/s)^{2} }{2(120)}\\a=2.4 m/s^{2}$

As we find acceleration.Now we need to find time

$V_{f}=V_{i}+at\\t=\frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{a}\\t=\frac{(24m/s)-(0m/s)}{(2.4m/s^{2} )}\\t=10s$

Now for distance

$Distance=velocity*time\\Distance=(24m/s)*(10s)\\Distance=240m$

How should the flight controls be held while taxiing a tricycle-gear equipped airplane with a left quartering tailwind?

AlexFokin [52]

<span>The flight controls must be held with left aileron up and elevator neutral while taxiing a tricycle-gear equipped airplane with a left quartering tailwind. In aircraft, ailerons are placed on the trailing edge of each wing near the wingtips and can be moved up and down. So when the left aileron is up, the movement of the airplane moves to the left and turns the wheel in a counterclockwise direction while at the same time, the right aileron is down.
