Complete question is;

Jason works for a moving company. A 75 kg wooden crate is sitting on the wooden ramp of his truck; the ramp is angled at 11°.

What is the magnitude of the force, directed parallel to the ramp, that he needs to exert on the crate to get it to start moving UP the ramp?

Answer:

F = 501.5 N

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of wooden crate; m = 75 kg

Angle of ramp; θ = 11°

Now, for the wooden crate to slide upwards, it means that the force of friction would be acting in an opposite to the slide along the inclined plane. Thus, the force will be given by;

F = mgsin θ + μmg cos θ

From online values, coefficient of friction between wooden surfaces is μ = 0.5

Thus;

F = (75 × 9.81 × sin 11) + (0.5 × 75 × 9.81 × cos 11)

F = 501.5 N

In a Young's double-slit experiment, a set of parallel slits with a separation of 0.142 mm is illuminated by light having a wave
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

1.152\ \mu m

1.44\ \mu m

Explanation:

d = Gap between slits = 0.142 mm

\lambda = Wavelength of light = 576 nm

L = Distance between light and screen = 3.5 m

m = Order = 2

Difference in path length is given by

\delta=dsin\theta=m\lambda\\\Rightarrow \delta=2\times 576\times 10^{-9}\\\Rightarrow \delta=0.000001152\ m\\\Rightarrow \delta=1.152\times 10^{-6}\ m=1.152\ \mu m

The difference in path lengths is 1.152\ \mu m

For dark fringe the difference in path length is given by

\delta=(m+\dfrac{1}{2})\lambda\\\Rightarrow \delta=(2+\dfrac{1}{2})\times 576\times 10^{-9}\\\Rightarrow \delta=0.00000144\ m=1.44\ \mu m

The difference in path length is 1.44\ \mu m

Pressure can affect the density of<br><br> Solids<br> Liquids<br> Gases<br> Metals
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer;

-Gases

Explanation;

-Pressure can affect the density of gases.

-Density of gases changes with pressure and temperature because gases are compressible fluid and because they are compressible, when pressure increases molecules come closer to each other which means increase in density and when pressure drops molecules of gases become free to expand and get away from each other which density decrease.

What is the answer to this question number 2?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

1⁺ ion

Explanation:

Metals in the first group on the periodic table will prefer to form 1⁺ ion. This is because the 1 valence electron in their orbital.

Most metals are electropositive and would prefer to lose electrons than to gain it.

Like all metals, the group 1 elements called the alkali metals would prefer to lose and electron.

On losing an electron the number of protons is then greater than the number of electrons. This leaves a net positive charge.
