The answer to your question would be team C, because the lifted the most weight in the shortest time. Team A might have been the fastest team but the also lifted the least amount of weight. And team B lifted a good amount of weight but they also did it the slowest.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of forces. We will decompose the forces in the vertical and horizontal sense, and at the same time, we will perform summation of torques to eliminate some variables and obtain a system of equations that allow us to obtain the angle.

The forces in the vertical direction would be,

\sum F_x = 0

f-N_w = 0

N_w = f

The forces in the horizontal direction would be,

\sum F_y = 0

N_f -W =0

N_f = W

The sum of Torques at equilibrium,

\sum \tau = 0

Wdcos\theta - N_wLsin\theta = 0

WdCos\theta = fLSin\theta

f = \frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}

The maximum friction force would be equivalent to the coefficient of friction by the person, but at the same time to the expression previously found, therefore

f_{max} = \mu W=\frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{d}{\mu L})

Replacing,

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{0.9}{0.42*2})

\theta = 46.975\°

Therefore the minimum angle that the person can reach is 46.9°

12. A car is travelling at 30 m/s when the driver sees a red light in the distance and immediately applies the brakes. The car c
Triss [41]

Answer:

22.5 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 30 m/s

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Distance (s) =?

The distance to which the car move before stopping from the time the driver applied the brake can be obtained as follow:

s = (u + v)t/2

s = (30 + 0)1.5 / 2

s = (30 × 1.5) / 2

s = 45 / 2

s = 22.5 m

Thus, the car will move to a distance of 22.5 m before stopping from the time the driver applied the brake.

Please help ASAP will mark brainliest How do we find the amount of uncertainty we should expect in our measurement of the period
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The relative uncertainty gives the uncertainty as a percentage of the original value. Work this out with: Relative uncertainty = (absolute uncertainty ÷ best estimate) × 100%. So in the example above: Relative uncertainty = (0.2 cm ÷ 3.4 cm) × 100% = 5.9%. The value can therefore be quoted as 3.4 cm ± 5.9%.

Explanation:

hope it helps :)

Trigonometry allows finding the result for the decomposition of the displacement vector is:  

           x = 2.12 mi

           y = -2.12 mi

Displacement is a vector quantity, which has modulus and direction.

The cardinal points are a reference system with respect to which measurements are made, this system is related to the Cartesian system with the East in the positive direction of the x-axis and the North with the positive direction of the y-axis.

In the attached we can see a diagram of the vector and its components, the indicated direction of 45 S of the E, in the Cartesian system where the angles are measured from the positive side of the x-axis in a counterclockwise direction is:

             θ = 360 - 45

             θ = 315º  

Let's use trigonometry to decompose the vector d = 3 mi  

              cos 315 = \frac{x}{d}  

              sin 315 =  \frac{y}{d}  

               

              x = d cos 315

              y = d sin 315

Let's calculate

              x = 3 cos 315

              y = 3 sin 315

              x = 2.12 mi

              y = -2.12 mi

The negative sign indicates that the displacement is towards the negative side, that is, towards the South.

In conclusion using trigonometry we can find the result for the decomposition of the displacement vector are:  

           x = 2.12 mi

           y = -2.12 mi
