Answer:

<em>The net force that acts on the sailboat has a magnitude of 217 N and is applied at an angle of 64° north of east.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Mechanical Force</u>

The second Newton's law states the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

\vec F = m.\vec a

Where \vec a is the acceleration of the object. Note both the force and the acceleration are vectors. The relationship between them is the mass, a scalar.

This means the net force and the acceleration have the same direction.

The sailboat has a mass m= 350 Kg and moves at a=0.62 m/s^2. The magnitude of the net force acting on the boat is:

F=0.62 * 350=217\ N

As stated above its direction is the same as the acceleration, thus:

The net force that acts on the sailboat has a magnitude of 217 N and is applied at an angle of 64° north of east.

Is there any induced current in the pickup coil when the polarity of the bar magnet is flipped?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Faraday's law , he direction of the magnetic field changes by 180º, in the polarity inversion processes, induces a voltage.  

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Faraday's law

          E = - dФ / dt

          Ф = B.A = B A cos θ

where B is the magnetic field, A is the area and θ is the angle between the field line and the normal to the area.

We can see that an electromotive force (voltage) is indexed when there is a variation of the field B, a variation of the area and change of the angle or when there is a combinational of them.

In this case, the magnitude of the field is constant, as the wire is rigid metal, the area is constant, but the direction of the magnetic field changes by 180º, in the polarity inversion processes, for which reason each change induces a voltage.

If a voltage is created in the ring, which has a resistance, a current is also generated in it.

Therefore the answer is If a current is created in the hoop

A massless rod of length L has a small mass m fastened at its center and another mass m fastened at one end. On the opposite end
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

onservation of energy

U top = K bottom

(m + m)*g*L = 1/2*I*?^2 where I = m*(L/2)^2 + m*L^2 = 1.25*m*L^2

So 2m*g*L = 1/2*1.25*m*L^2*?^2

So ? = sqrt(3*g*/(1.25*L) ) = sqrt(12g/5L)

Which would BEST describes what occurs when a ball is thrown against a wall? A) The ball will not bounce off the wall. B) The ba
oee [108]

Answer:

D) The ball exerts a force on the wall and the wall exerts a force back.

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on another object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A"

In this problem, we can identify (for instance) object A with tha ball and object B with the wall. Therefore, if we apply Newton's third law, we get:

The ball (object A) exerts a force on the wall (object B), therefore the wall (object B) exerts an equal and opposite force on the ball (object A). So, option D is the correct one.
