A block of mass 9.2kg rests on a slope an angle of 26.9∘ relative to the horizontal. What is the size of the contact force norma
Olegator [25]

Answer:

80.4 N

Explanation:

As the block is at rest on the slope, it means that all the forces acting on it are balanced.

We are only interested in the forces that act on the block along the direction perpendicular to the slope. Along this direction, we have two forces acting on the block:

- The normal reaction N (contact force), upward

- The component of the weight of the block, mg cos \theta, downward, where m is the mass of the block, g is the gravitational acceleration and \theta is the angle of the incline

Since the block is in equilibrium along this direction, the two forces must balance each other, so they must be equal in magnitude:

N=mg cos \theta

And by substituting the numbers into the equation, we find the size of the contact force normal to the slope:

N=(9.2 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(cos 26.9^{\circ})=80.4 N

A copper wire has a radius of 3.5 mm. When forces of a certain equal magnitude but opposite directions are applied to the ends o
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The tensile stress on the wire is 550 MPa.

Explanation:

Given;

Radius of copper wire, R = 3.5 mm

extension of the copper wire, e =  5.0×10⁻³ L

L is the original length of the copper wire,

Young's modulus for copper, Y =  11×10¹⁰Pa.

Young's modulus, Y is given as the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain, measured in the same unit as Young's modulus.

Y =\frac{Tensile \ stress}{Tensile \ strain} \\\\Tensile \ stress = Y*Tensile \ strain\\\\But, Tensile \ strain = \frac{extension}{original \ Length} = \frac{5.0*10^{-3} L}{L} = 5.0*10^{-3}\\\\Tensile \ stress = 11*10^{10} *5.0*10^{-3} \ = 550*10^6 \ Pa

Therefore, the tensile stress on the wire is 550 MPa.

What is the difference in the pitch when you are in front of the car compared to behind the car?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:The Doppler effect is a change in the frequency of sound waves that occurs when the source of the sound waves is moving relative to a stationary listener.

As the source of sound waves approaches a listener, the sound waves get closer together, increasing their frequency and the pitch of the sound. The opposite happens when the source of sound waves moves away from the listener.

The planet Jupiter moves in an elliptical orbit with the sun at one focus. Given that Jupiter's closest approach to the sun is a
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

814.62 million kilometers

Explanation:

eccentricity of elliptical orbit =0.048

Let semi major axis of elliptical path be a.

From center of the ellipse focus is at a distance = a*eccentricity

Now, closest approach from focus is = a(1-e)

After plugging values = a(1-0.048)=740.52

                                         a=777.31 million kilometers

Maximum distance from sun (apihalian) =a+a*e =a(1+e)

                                                 = 777.31(1+0.048)

                                                 =814.62 million kilometers
