1) -7.14 N

2) +2.70 N

3) 7.63 N

Explanation:

1)

In order to find the x-component of the resultant force, we have to resolve each force along the x-axis.

The first force is 8.00 N and is directed at an angle of 61.0° above the negative x axis in the second quadrant: this means that the angle with respect to the positive x axis is

180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}

so its x-component is

F_{1x}=(8.00)(cos (180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}))=-3.88 N

F₂ has a magnitude of 5.40 N and is directed at an angle of 52.8° below the negative x axis in the third quadrant: so, its angle with respect to the positive x-axis is

180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}

Therefore its x-component is

F_{2x}=(5.40)(cos (180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}))=-3.26 N

So, the x-component of the resultant force is

F_x=F_{1x}+F_{2x}=-3.88+(-3.26)=-7.14 N

2)

In order to find the y-component of the resultant force, we have to resolve each force along the y-axis.

The first force is 8.00 N and is directed at an angle of 61.0° above the negative x axis in the second quadrant: as we said previously, the angle with respect to the positive x axis is

180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}

so its y-component is

F_{1y}=(8.00)(sin (180^{\circ}-61^{\circ}))=7.00 N

F₂ has a magnitude of 5.40 N and is directed at an angle of 52.8° below the negative x axis in the third quadrant: as we said previously, its angle with respect to the positive x-axis is

180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}

Therefore its y-component is

F_{2y}=(5.40)(sin (180^{\circ}+52.8^{\circ}))=-4.30 N

So, the y-component of the resultant force is

F_y=F_{1y}+F_{2y}=7.00+(-4.30)=2.70 N

3)

The two components of the resultant force representent the sides of a right triangle, of which the resultant force corresponds tot he hypothenuse.

Therefore, we can find the magnitude of the resultant force by using Pythagorean's theorem:

F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

Where in this problem, we have:

F_x=-7.14 N is the x-component

F_y=2.70 N is the y-component

And substituting, we find:

F=\sqrt{(-7.14)^2+(2.70)^2}=7.63 N

Answer:

Explanation:

F1 = 8 N, along 61° from negative x axis in Second quadrant

f2 = 5.4 N, along 52.8° from negative x axis in third quadrant

Let R be the resultant force.

X component of resultant force,

Rx = - F1 x Cos 61° - F2 Cos 52.8°

Rx = - 8 x 0.485 - 5.4 x 0.605

Rx = - 3.88 - 3.27

Rx = - 7.15 N

Y component of resultant force,

Ry = F1 x Sin 61° - F2 Sin 52.8°

Ry = 8 x 0.875 - 5.4 x 0.8

Ry = 7 - 4.32  

Ry = 2.68 N

The magnitude of resultant force

R=\sqrt{R_{x}^{2}+R_{y}^{2}}

R=\sqrt{ 7.15^{2}+2.68^{2}}

R = 7.64 N

Answer:

finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Explanation:

This method is called  finding Cepheid variable and measuring their periods.

Cepheid variable is actually a type of star that has a radial pulsation having a varying brightness and diameter. This change in brightness is very well defined having a period and amplitude.

A potent clear link between the luminosity and pulsation period of a Cepheid variable developed Cepheids as an important determinants of cosmic criteria for scaling galactic and extra galactic distances. Henrietta Swan Leavitt revealed this robust feature of conventional Cepheid in 1908 after observing thousands of variable stars in the Magellanic Clouds. This in fact turn, by making comparisons its established luminosity to its measured brightness, allows one to evaluate the distance to the star.

If an exit sign is hanging from the ceiling by three chains each of which has a tension of 15N what is the weight of the sign
kvasek [131]
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.

Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)

What are the characteristics of a blackbody radiator? Give an example.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

A blackbody, or Planckian radiator, is a cavity within a heated material from which heat cannot escape. No matter what the material, the walls of the cavity exhibit a characteristic spectral emission, which is a function of its temperature.

Example:

Emission from a blackbody is temperature dependent and at high temperature, a blackbody will emit a spectrum of photon energies that span the visible range, and therefore it will appear white. The Sun is an example of a high-temperature blackbody.
