Two men decide to use their cars to pull a truck stuck in the mud. They attach ropes and one pulls with a force of 615 N at an a

ngle of 31◦with respect to the direction in which the truck is headed, while the other car pulls with a force of 961 N at an angle of 25◦with respect to the same direction. What is the net forward force exerted on the truck in the direction it is headed? Answer in units of N.

Answer:

1398.12 N

Explanation:

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the truck  on and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

x-components  of the ropes forces

T₁x = 615N*cos31°=527.1579 N  :Tension in direction x of the rope of the car 1

T₂x= 961 N*cos25°=870.96 N  :Tension in direction x of the rope of the car 2

Net forward force exerted on the truck in the direction it is headed (Fnx)

Fnx = T₁x  + T₂x

Fnx = 527.1579 N  + 870.96 N

Fnx = 1398.12 N

Why are viruses hard to fight
ki77a [65]

Answer:Compared to other pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses are minuscule. And because they have none of the hallmarks of living things — a metabolism or the ability to reproduce on their own, for example — they are harder to target with drugs.

A block is attached to a horizontal spring and oscillates back and forth on a frictionless horizontal surface at a frequency of
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Amplitude = 0.058m

Frequency = 6.25Hz

Explanation:

Given

Amplitude (A) = 8.26 x 10-2 m

Frequency (f) = 4.42Hz

Conversation of energy before split

½mv² = ½KA²

Make A the subject of formula

A = v\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

Conversation of energy after split

½(m/2)V'² = ½(m/2)V² = ½KA'²

½(m/2)V² = ½KA'²

Make A the subject of formula

First divide both sides by ½

(m/2)V² = KA'²

Divide both sides by K

\frac{m}{2K}V² = A'²

v\sqrt{\frac{m}{2k} } = A'

Substitute v\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } for A in the above equation

A' = A/√2

A' = 8.26 x 10^-2/√2

A' = 0.05840702012600882

Amplitude after split = 0.058 (Approximated)

Frequency (f') = f√2

f' = 4.42√2

f' = 6.25082394568908011

Frequency after split = 6.25Hz (approximated)

You and your friend live in different states and plant identical hydrangea bulbs in your garden. When they bloom, you send each
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

sample. rewrite in your own words if you'd like.

Explanation:

Since the hydrangeas are changing color depending on whether the soil is acidic or basic, they must have an indicator. This means that any hydrangea planted in acidic soil will have blue flowers and any hydrangea planted in basic soil will have pink. One common indicator present in many plants is anthocyanin, so maybe hydrangeas contain that chemical.

Which of these surface features are formed because of the heating of groundwater?
Tju [1.3M]
The correct option is C.
Hot springs and geysers are formed as a result of been heated up by heat from the interior of the earth. This type of heat is called geothermal heat. A hot spring refers to a spring that is produced as a result of geothermally heated water. Hot springs usually have very high temperature. Geysers is a form of hot spring and it refers to a pool of water that has seeped through a opening in the earth surface.
