Two men decide to use their cars to pull a truck stuck in mud. They attach ropes and one pulls with a force of 598 N at an angle

of 29◦ with respect to the direction in which the truck is headed, while the other car pulls with a force of 941 N at an angle of 23◦ with respect to the same direction. 598 N 29 ◦ 941 N 23 ◦ What is the net forward force exerted on the truck in the direction it is headed? Answer in units of N

Answer:

magnitude of the force is

F = 1537 N

direction of the force is given as

\theta = 25.3 degree

Explanation:

As we know that the first force is 598 N at 29 degree

so we have

F_1 = 598(cos29 \hat i + sin29 \hat j)

F_1 = 523 \hat i + 290 \hat j

Now another force is 941 N at 23 degree

F_2 = 941(cos23\hat i + sin23\hat j)

F_2 = 866.2 \hat i + 367.7 \hat j

so we will have

F = F_1 + F_2

F = (523 + 866.2)\hat i + (290 + 367.7)\hat j

F = 1389.2\hat i + 657.7 \hat j

magnitude of the force is

F = \sqrt{1389.2^2 + 657.7^2}

F = 1537 N

direction of the force is given as

tan\theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}

tan\theta = \frac{657.7}{1389.2}

\theta = 25.3 degree

Given a block of glass that is semi-circular, a laser pointer, protractor/ruler, and index card, design your own experiment to o
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

Explanation:

To design the experiment of measuring the critical angle, we describe the phenomenon, when the light passes from a medium with a higher refractive index to one with a lower index, it separates from the normal one and the Critical Angle is defined as the Angle for which the refraction occurs at 90º

            n₂ sin θ₂ = n₁ sin 90

           n₁ / n₂ = sin θ₂

As we can see, we have to measure the angle with which the laser touches the exit surface of the glass block.

Design of the experiment:

    We place the glass block on the ramp and at the top we hit the conveyor for half the angle, we climb the block on the ramp and see that the angle of incidence of lightning on the exit face changes, part of the beam comes out of the glass , we see it by dispersion in the particles of dirty in the air; Maybe the conveyor or the laser should be moved slightly so that the beam touches the point of origin on the conveyor.

   

   When we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.
