The net force on the barge is 8000 N

Explanation:

In order to find the net force on the badge, we have to use the rules of vector addition, since force is a vector quantity.

In this problem, we have two forces:

  • The force of tugboat A, F_A = 3000 N, acting in a certain direction
  • The force of tugboat B, F_B = 5000 N, also acting in the same direction

Since the two forces act in the same direction, this means that we can simply add their magnitudes to find the net combined force on the barge. Therefore, we get

F=F_A+F_B = 3000 + 5000 = 8000 N

and the direction is the same as the direction of the two forces.

Answer:

The racetrack is 996.7 meters long

Explanation:

Convert 251km/h to km/s (kilometers per second)

3600 seconds in an hour, so:

251/3600 = 0.0697km/s

Convert km/s to m/s (meters per second)

1000 meters in a kilometer, so:

0.0697*1000 = 69.7m/s

Find length of racetrack:

69.7m/s*14.3s = 996.7m

If the racer travels 69.7 meters in one second and it takes 14.3 seconds to complete a lap, the racetrack is 996.7 meters long.

Microwave~Inside the strong metal box, there is a microwave generator called a magnetron. When you start cooking, the magnetron takes electricity from the power outlet and converts it into high-powered, 12cm (4.7 inch) radio waves. ... Thus the microwaves pass their energy onto the molecules in the food, rapidly heating it up

Radio~  The radio waves transmitted and received by wireless computer networks are at much higher frequencies than those used by other device
