An ice rescue team pulls a stranded hiker off a frozen lake by throwing him a rope and pulling him horizontally across the essen

tially frictionless ice with a constant force. The hiker weighs 1040 N, and accelerates across the ice at 1.10 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the tension in the rope? (Ignore the mass of the rope.)

Answer:T=116.84 N

Explanation:

Given

Weight of hiker =1040 N

acceleration a=1.1 m/s^2

Force exerted by Rope is equal to Tension in the rope

F_{net}=T=ma_{net}

T=\frac{1040}{g}\times 1.1

T=116.84 N

Imagine a negative test charge sitting at the coordinate origin (0,0). Two bunches of positive charges are located on the x-axis
Oxana [17]

Answer:

the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

Explanation:

Given the data in the question, as illustrated in the image below;

from the Image, OA = 1, OB = AC = 1

so using Pythagoras theorem

a² = b² + c²

a = √( b² + c² )

so

OC = √( OB² + AC² )

we substitute

OC = √( OA² + AC² )

OC = √( 1² + 1² )

OC = √( 1 + 1 )

OC = √2

Coordinate of C( 1, 1 )

Hence, the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

If the atomic number of an atom is 4 and the mass number is 9, then how many electrons does it have
miskamm [114]
The atomic number of an atom says how many protons it has. This number cant change, since the atomic number is what gives elements their identities (in the periodic table, at least).
The mass number, on the other hand, says how many protons AND neutrons the atom has (so, the sum of P+ and N0). So, electrons have nothing to do with this number.
Atoms are neutrally charged, which means there has to be an equal number of positive and negative particles. The negative particles of an atom are its electrons, and since our atom has 4 protons, it must also have 4 electrons.

A car’s bumper is designed to withstand a 4.0-km/h (1.1-m/s) collision with an immovable object without damage to the body of th
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

 avriage force F = 2722.5 N

Explanation:

For this problem we can use Newton's second law, to calculate the average force and acceleration we can find it by kinematics.

      vf² = v₀² - 2 ax

The final carriage speed is zero (vf = 0)

      0 = v₀² - 2ax

      a = v₀² / 2x

      a = 1.1²/(2 0.200)

      a = 3.025 m / s²

      a = 3.0 m/s²

We calculate the average force

      F = ma

      F = 900 3,025

      F = 2722.5 N
