Answer:

His weight on Earth is 1097.6N

Explanation:

You have to apply Newton's Second Law, F = m×a where F is force, m is mass and a is accerleration. Then, you have to substitute the following values into the equation :

f = m \times a

Let m = 112kg,

Let a = 9.8m/s²,

f = 112 \times 9.8

f = 1097.6

Vlada [557]

For rotational equilibrium of the door we can say that torque due to weight of the door must be counter balanced by the torque of external force

F\times L = mg \times \frac{L}{2}

here weight will act at mid point of door so its distance is half of the total distance where force is applied

here we know that

mg = 145 N

now we will have

F = \frac{mg}{2}

F = \frac{145}{2} = 72.5 N

so our applied force is 72.5 N

Vector sum of 15 m, East and 9 m, West is 24 m, East. True False
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Because when you go through east

( +x axis ) then you go to west ( -x axis )

You will subtract -9 from +15

it's become +6

( I talk about the displacement not distance) ( West = - East )

I hope that it's a clear ") .

Scrat [10]

Answer:

a)   S = 2.35 10³   J/m²2 ,  

b)and the tape recorder must be in the positive Z-axis direction.

the answer is 5

c) the direction of the positive x axis

Explanation:

a) The Poynting vector or intensity of an electromagnetic wave is

          S = 1 /μ₀ E x B

if we use that the fields are in phase

          B = E / c

we substitute

         S = E² /μ₀ c

let's calculate

        s = 941 2 / (4π 10⁻⁷  3 10⁸)

        S = 2.35 10³   J/m²2

 

b) the two fields are perpendicular to each other and in the direction of propagation of the radiation

In this case, the electro field is in the y direction and the wave propagates in the ax direction, so the magnetic cap must be in the y-axis direction, and the tape recorder must be in the positive Z-axis direction.

the answer is 5

C) The poynting electrode has the direction of the electric field, by which or which should be in the direction of the positive x axis

Which symbol represents a type of electromagnetic radiation released during radioactive decay?
Lena [83]
The correct option is (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma )

Explanation:
Now this question is a tricky one because all of these options are somehow involved in radioactive decay; however, in this case the SYMBOL is required NOT the elements. There are three symbols involved in radioactive decay, which are:
1. α for alpha decay
2. β for beta decay
3. γ for gamma decay 

In the options only one symbol is present which is gamma. Hence option (D) Gamma ( _0^0\gamma ) is the correct answer.
