A piling for a high-rise building is pushed by two bulldozers at exactly the same time. One bulldozer exerts a force of 1250 pou

nds in a westerly direction. The other bulldozer pushes the piling with a force of 2650 pounds in a northerly direction. What is the magnitude of the resultant force upon the piling, to the nearest ten pounds? a. 2340 lbs. c. 3900 lbs. b. 2670 lbs. d. 2930 lbs.

Answer:

Option d is correct.

The magnitude of the resultant force upon the piling = 2930 lbs.

Explanation:

Resultant of a group of forces = vector sum of the forces.

Force 1 = (-1250î) lbs

Force 2 = (2650j) lbs

Resultant = (-1250î + 2650j) lbs

The magnitude of the resultant = √[(-1250)² + (2650)²] = 2930 lbs.

Or in visualization method, the two forces presented form a right angled triangle with the resultant of the two forces.

Hence, using Pythagoras theorem,

F₁² + F₂² = R²

(1250)² + (2650)² = R²

R = √[(1250)² + (2650)²] = 2930 lbs.

what is the major cause of the earth’s magnetic field? the earth’s liquid outer core the earth’s liquid outer core the earth’s m
GaryK [48]

The earth's liquid outer core is the major cause of the earth’s magnetic field.

<h3>What is magnetic field?</h3>

The magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials is described by a magnetic field, a vector field. A force acting on a charge while it travels through a magnetic field is perpendicular to both the charge's motion and the magnetic field. The magnetic field of a permanent magnet attracts or repels other magnets as well as ferromagnetic elements like iron. A magnetic field that varies with location will also exert a force on a variety of non-magnetic materials by changing the velocity of those particles' outer electrons. Electric currents, like those utilised in electromagnets, and electric fields that change over time produce magnetic fields that surround magnetised things.

A bulb converts 9J of energy in each second from an input of 100J of energy. Calculate efficiency of this light bulb
77julia77 [94]
Efficiency is calculated through dividing the actual mechanical advantage by the hypothetical mechanical advantage:

- the actual mechanical advantage is 9J because that's how much work the light bulb doing

- the hypo. mechanical advantage is 100J. Ideally, in a perfect world, the light bulb can convert 100J input into 100J output, but do to resistance and other factors it is not possible.

\frac{9}{100}  = .09
change the decimal to a percentage:

.09 = 9\%
the light bulb had 9% efficiency

The mass needed at peg 1 is a 5g mass.

The 15g should hang at peg 5.

The reason is force x distance clockwise is equal to force x distance anti-clockwise
