Answer: 20 newtons

Explanation:

Given that:

Force applied by Samantha = 10 newtons

Force applied by Emily = 10 newtons

Direction of both forces = same

Net force of their efforts = ?

Since net force of forces applied in the same direction is obtained by adding up the seperate forces applied, then

Net force = (10 newtons + 10 newtons)

Net force = 20 newtons

Thus, the net force of their efforts is 20 newtons.

A meteoroid is traveling east through the atmosphere at 18. 3 km/s while descending at a rate of 11.5 km/s. What is its speed, i
Annette [7]

Answer:

The speed of meteoroid is 21.61 km/s in south-east.

Explanation:

Given that,

A meteoroid is traveling through the atmosphere at 18.3 km/s. while descending at a rate of 11.5 km/s it means 11.5 km/s in south.

We need to draw a diagram

Using Pythagorean theorem

AC^2=AB^2+BC^2

AC^2=(18.3)^3+(11.5)^2

AC=\sqrt{(18.3)^2+(11.5)^2}

AC=21.61\ km/s

Hence, The speed of meteoroid is 21.61 km/s in south-east.

The distance between the objective and eyepiece lenses in a microscope is 19 cm . The objective lens has a focal length of 5.5 m
kramer

Answer:

The focal length of eyepiece is 3.68 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 19 cm

Focal length = 5.5 mm

Magnification = 200

Object distance = -25 cm

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of magnification

m=\dfrac{d}{f_{o}}+\dfrac{-25}{f_{0}f_{e}}

Put the value into the formula

f_{e}=\dfrac{19\times(-25)}{.55(-200-\dfrac{19}{.55})}

f_{e}=3.68\ cm

Hence, The focal length of eyepiece is 3.68 cm.

Which takes place as water cycles from the bottom of the pot toward the top?
Elenna [48]
The option that takes place as water cycles from the bottom of the pot toward the top is that A. thermal energy is transferred. 
As the pot gets warmer and warmer, the heat flows everywhere inside the pot, ultimately reaching the top, and heating the water at the top as well. There is no chemical energy here, and molecules don't gain thermal energy, it is just transferred to the top of the pot.

Based on Newton's law of motion, which combination of rocket bodies and engine will result in the acceleration of 40 m/s ^2 at t
ad-work [718]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

The Rocket Club is planning to launch a pair of model rockets. To build the rocket, the club needs a rocket body paired with an engine. The table lists the mass of three possible rocket bodies and the force generated by three possible engines.

A 4-column table with 3 rows. The first column labeled Body has entries 1, 2, 3. The second column labeled Mass (grams) has entries 500, 1500, 750. The third column labeled Engine has entries 1, 2, 3. The fourth column labeled Force (Newtons) has entries 25, 20, 30.

Based on Newton’s laws of motion, which combination of rocket bodies and engines will result in the acceleration of 40 m/s2 at the start of the launch?

Body 3 + Engine 1

Body 2 + Engine 2

Body 1 + Engine 2

Body 1 + Engine 1

Solution :

Given :

Body       Mass (gram)     Engine      Force (newtons)

1                   500                 1                     25

2                  1500                2                    20

3                  750                  3                    30

The body 1 has a mass of 500 gram which is equal to 0.5 kg

And engine 2 has a force of 20 newtons.

We know that according to Newton's laws of motion,

Force = mass x acceleration

 20    = 0.5 x acceleration

Acceleration $=\frac{20}{0.5}$

                      $=\frac{200}{5}$

                      $= 40 \ m/s^2$

Therefore, based on laws of motion of Newton, the Body 1 + Engine 2 combination of the rocket bodies and engines will result in an acceleration of $ 40 \ m/s^2$ at the start of the launch.

The activation of clotting factors will be blocked.
dedylja [7]

With the blocking of activation of clotting factors, the rate of conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin will decrease to a huge extent and this will prevent the clot formation.

Option A

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The process of stopping of flow of blood through any wound by formation of a clot is known as blood clotting. The clot in blood is formed by conversion of the fibrinogen protein into its polymer form fibrin which forms a meshwork.

The conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin requires a lot of enzymes and factors present which is required one by one, known as the Cascade theory. Total of 13 factors are required, where there are prothrombin, thromboplastin, and different other factors. Inactivation of any of the 13 factors will lead to less conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, thereby the rate of conversion will highly decrease.
