Answer:

F > W * sin(α)

Explanation:

The force needed for the box to start sliding up depends on the incline (α).

The external forces acting on the box would be the weight, the normal reaction and the lifting force that is applied to make it slide up.

These forces can be decomposed on their normal and tangential (to the slide plane) components.

The weight will be split into

Wn = W * cos(α) (in normal direction)

Wt = W * sin(α) (in tangential direction)

The normal reaction will be alligned with the normal axis, and will be equal to -Wn

N = -W* cos(α) (in normal direction)

To mke the box slide up, a force must be applied, that is opposite to the tangential component of the weight and at least a little larger

F > |-W * sin(α)| (in tangential direction)

Answer:

1) The speed of sound increases

2)  440 Hz

3)  29°C

4)  17°C

5) 434 Hz

6)  12 m/s

7)  17.3 m

Explanation:

1) The speed of sound increases

2) V = f×λ

f = V/λ = 343/0.78 = 439.744 ≈ 440 Hz

3) V = f×λ

512 × 0.68 = 348.16 m/s

348.16 - 331 = 17.16

T = 17.16/0.6 = 28.6 ≈ 29°C

4) Increase in speed = 350 - 340 = 10

Increase in temperature = 10/0.6 = 16.67° ≈ 17°C

5) f = V/λ = 343/0.79 = 434 Hz

6) 331 + 0.6×30 - (331 × 0.6 ×10) = 12 m/s

7) V = 331 + 0.6×25 = 346m/s

λ = 346/20 = 17.3 m

A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 21.4 m/s in the y direction when one of its onboard thruster turn
kumpel [21]

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 24.177 meters per second.

b) The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 62.266º.

Explanation:

Statement is incomplete. The complete description is now described below:

<em>A satellite in outer space is moving at a constant velocity of 21.4 m/s in the y direction when one of its onboard thruster turns on, causing an acceleration of 0.250 m/s2 in the x direction. The acceleration lasts for 45.0 s, at which point the thruster turns off. </em>

<em>(a) What is the magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off</em>

<em>(b) What is the direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off? Give your answer as an angle measured counterclockwise from the +x-axis. ° counterclockwise from the +x-axis</em>

Let be x and y-directions orthogonal to each other and the satellite is accelerated uniformly from rest in the +x direction and moves at constant velocity in the +y direction. The velocity vector of the satellite (\vec{v}_{S}), measured in meters per second, is:

\vec{v}_{S} = (v_{o,x}+a_{x}\cdot t)\,\hat{i}+v_{y}\,\hat{j}

Where:

v_{o,x} - Initial velocity in +x direction, measured in meters per second.

a_{x} - Acceleration in +x direction, measured in meter per square second.

t - Time, measured in seconds.

v_{y} - Velocity in +y direction, measured in meters per second.

If we know that v_{o,x} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, a_{x} = 0.250\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, t = 45\,s and v_{y} = 21.4\,\frac{m}{s}, the final velocity of the satellite is:

\vec{v}_{S} = \left[0\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(0.250\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (45\,s) \right]\,\hat{i}+\left(21.4\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\,\hat{j}

\vec{v_{S}} = 11.25\,\hat{i}+21.4\,\hat{j}\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]

a) The magnitud of the satellite's velocity can be found by the resource of the Pythagorean Theorem:

\|\vec {v}_{S}\| = \sqrt{\left(11.25\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(21.4\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}

\|\vec{v}_{S}\| \approx 24.177\,\frac{m}{s}

The magnitude of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 24.177 meters per second.

b) The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is determined with the help of trigonometric functions:

\tan \alpha = \frac{v_{y}}{v_{x}} = \frac{21.4\,\frac{m}{s} }{11.25\,\frac{m}{s} }

\tan \alpha = 1.902

\alpha = \tan^{-1}1.902

\alpha \approx 62.266^{\circ}

The direction of the satellite's velocity when the thruster turns off is approximately 62.266º.

A cannonball is fired horizontally at the same time a ball being dropped from the same height How do the times it takes them to
ipn [44]

Answer:

The cannonball and the ball will both take the same amount of time before they hit the ground.

Explanation:

For a ball fired horizontally from a given height, there is only a vertical acceleration on it towards the ground. This acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity (g = 9.81 m/s^2). A ball dropped from a height will also only experience the same vertical acceleration downwards which is also equal to g = 9.81 m/s^2.

Therefore both the cannonball and the ball will take the same amount of time to hit the ground if they are released/fired from the same height.

Which mystery primate is a biped? list the characteristics you choose to justify your answer
Vadim26 [7]

Primate B mystery primate is a biped.

The characteristics are:

  1. The vast majority of primates live in trees (Notable exceptions are humans and gorillas).
  2. The majority of primates have upright upper bodies and occasionally walk on two feet (Humans are erect and always exhibit bipedalism).
  3. All primates have smaller noses and matching olfactory brain regions (except Lemurs).
  4. Compared to other mammals, primates have enormous brains for their size. Stereoscopic vision, hand-eye coordination, and manual dexterity are all governed by the brain's enlarged regions.
  5. Considering the size of the animal, long gestations
  6. Primate sociality is rather high in general.
  7. The majority of primates are nocturnal.
  8. The highly enjoyable action of grooming is shared by all highly evolved primates, including humans.
<h3>Primate </h3>

Lemurs, lorises, tarsiers, monkeys, apes, and humans are all included in the biological order called primates. Class Mammalian of the phylum Vertebrate includes creatures with qualities that have evolved recently in the taxonomic classification of the animal kingdom. 19 subtaxa known as orders have been added to the Mammalia classification. Primates are one of such groups, which contains eutherian animals like monkeys and apes. As a result, during a period of 30 million years, new world and old world monkeys underwent different adaptive radiations and were reproductively isolated. The Oligocene epoch saw the evolution of prosimians. About 30 million years ago, all currently extant primates underwent evolution.

The product or products of a reaction are determined by the type of reaction taking place. true or false
Bess [88]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The products of a reaction are determined by the type of chemical reaction that are taking place. This is very true.

In chemical reactions, bonds are broken and atoms re-arranged to form new products.

  • By virtue of this, we can predict and know the kind of permissible combinations that can take place.
  • There are different kinds of chemical reaction.
  • They are synthesis, decomposition, single displacement, double displacement reactions e.t.c
  • Knowing these reactions gives insight into the likely products we can obtain.
