Answer:

169.74 N

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the girl = 30 Kg

angle of the rope with vertical, θ = 30°

equating the vertical component of the tension

vertical component of the tension is equal to the weight of the girl.

 T cos θ = m g

 T cos 30° = 30 x 9.8

 T = 339.48 N

Tension on the two ropes is equal to 339.48 N

Tension in each of the rope = T/2

                                           = 339.48/2 = 169.74 N

Hence, the tension in each of the rope is equal to 169.74 N

Mercury has a mass of 3.3 e 23 kg and a radius of 2.44 e 6 m. Find Mercury's
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

11.) g = 3.695 m/s^2

12.) g = 8.879 m/s^2

13.) E = 8127 N/C

Explanation:

11.) Given that the

Mercury mass M = 3.3 × 10^23kg

Radius r = 2.44 ×10^6 m

Gravitational constant G = 6.67408 × 10^-11 m3kg-1 s^-2

Gravitational field strength g can be calculated by using the formula below

g = GM/r^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

g = (6.67408 × 10^-11 × 3.3 × 10^23)/(2.44×10^6)^2

g = 2.2×10^13/5.954×10^12

g = 3.695 m/s^2

12.) Given that the

Venus mass M = 4.87×10^24kg

Radius r = 6.05 × 10^6 m

Using the same formula for gravitational field strength g

g = GM/R2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

g = (6.67408 × 10^-11 × 4.87×10^24)/(6.05×10^6)^2

g = 3.25×10^14/3.66×10^13

g = 8.879 m/s^2

13.) Given that the

Charge = 2.26 nC = 2.26×10^-9

Distance d = 0.05m

Electric field strength E can be calculated by using the formula below

E = Kq/d^2

Where

K = electrostatic constant 8.99 × 10^9 Nm2/C2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

E = (8.99 × 10^9 × 2.26×10^-9)/0.05^2

E = 20.3174/2.5×10^-3

E = 8126.96 N/C

A bicyclist starts at point P and travels around a triangular path that takes her through points Q and R before returning to the
REY [17]

Answer:

Displacement by cyclist is zero.

Explanation:

In the given question bicyclist is travelling in a rectangular track having P , Q and R edges.

The bicyclist starts from P and travel through Q and R and returned to P again.

We need to find its displacement.

We know displacement  of a body is its difference between its initial position to final position.

Here in the given question the bicyclist returns to P again.

Therefore, total displacement by bicyclist is zero.

Hence, this is the required solution.

What causes fusion to stop within all stars?
puteri [66]
Hello!

When hydrogen runs out in a star, it can no longer perform nuclear fusion where hydrogen nuclei combine to create helium. This will stop fusion.

Hope this helps!

Why is thermal energy from the Sun transferred to Earth through electromagnetic waves instead of any other type of thermal energ
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are defined as the waves that are created due to the vibrations between a magnetic field and an electric field.

Earth atmosphere is made up of several gases and spaces between them. Thermal energy from the sun require to pass through space by electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space and that is why other type of waves are unable to transfer thermal energy.

Hence, the correct answer is "Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space".
