Answer:

Fa=774 N

Fb=346 N

Explanation:

We will solve this problem by equating forces on each axis.

  1. On x-axis let forces in positive x-direction be positive and forces in negative x-direction be negative
  2. On y-axis let forces in positive y-direction be positive and forces in negative y-direction be negative

While towing we know that car is mot moving in y-direction so net force in y-axis must be zero

⇒∑Fy=0

⇒Fa*sin(50)-Fb*sin(20)=0

⇒Fa*sin(50)=Fb*sin(20)

⇒Fa=2.24Fb

Given that resultant force on car is 950N in positive x-direction

⇒∑Fx=950  

⇒Fa*cos(20)+Fb*cos(50)=950

⇒2.24*Fb*cos(20)+Fb(50)=950

⇒Fb*(2.24*cos(20)+cos(50))=950

⇒Fb=\frac{950}{2.24*cos(20)+cos(50)}

⇒Fb=\frac{950}{2.24*0.94+0.64}

⇒ Fb=\frac{950}{2.75}=345.5

⇒Fa=2.24*Fb

      =2.24*345.5

      =773.93

Therefore approximately, Fa=774 N and Fb=346 N

What are the wavelengths of electromagnetic wave in free space that have the following frequencies?.
irina [24]

The wavelengths of the light are 4.3 * 10^-12 m and 0.2 m respectively.

<h3>What is wavelength?</h3>

The term wavelength has to do with the horizontal distance that is covered by a wave. We know that a long wavelength implies that the wave is able to travel a long distance from one point to another.

Given that;

c = λf

c = speed of light

λ = wavelength of ight

f = frequency of light

Thus;

λ = 3 * 10^8/ 7.00 x 10^19

λ = 4.3 * 10^-12 m

λ = 3 * 10^8/1.50 x 10^9

λ = 2 * 10^-1 or 0.2 m
