Answer:

T_{vertical} = 50 N

Explanation:

given,

traffic light weight = 100 N

angle at which the rope is supported = 30°

vertical component of force = ?

2 T sin \theta= W

2 T sin 30^0= 100

T = \dfrac{100}{2 sin 30^0}

T = 100\ N

T_{vertical} = T sin 30^0

T_{vertical} = 100\times \dfrac{1}{2}

T_{vertical} = 50 N

A particular star cluster contains stars all with the same apparent magnitude of +4. Near the cluster (and at the same distance
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

3,000 stars.

Explanation:

Subtract the magnitude of the single star from the magnitude of the star cluster.

(+4) - (+1) = +3

Then multiply your answer by 1000

= 3,000 is a stars.

A single slit 1.4 mmmm wide is illuminated by 460-nmnm light. Part A What is the width of the central maximum (in cmcm ) in the
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

<h2> 1.643*10⁻⁴cm</h2>

Explanation:

In a single slit experiment, the distance on a screen from the centre point is expressed as y = \frac{\delta m \lambda d}{a} where;

\delta m is the first two diffraction minima = 1

\lambda is light wavelength

d is the distance of diffraction pattern from the screen

a is the width of the slit

Given \lambda = 460-nm = 460*10⁻⁹m

d = 5.0mm = 5*10⁻³m

a = 1.4mm = 1.4*10⁻³m

Substituting this values into the formula above to get width of the central maximum y;

y = 1*460*10⁻⁹ * 5*10⁻³/1.4*10⁻³

y = 2300*10⁻¹²/1.4*10⁻³

y = 1642.86*10⁻⁹

y = 1.643*10⁻⁶m

Converting the final value to cm,

since 100cm = 1m

x = 1.643*10⁻⁶m

x = 1.643*10⁻⁶ * 100

x = 1.643*10⁻⁴cm

Hence, the width of the central maximum in the diffraction pattern on a screen 5.0 mm away is  1.643*10⁻⁴cm

Define what is physics​
Lisa [10]

In my own words, I would say that physics is an area of science that seeks to explain and understand the fundamental nature of the dynamics of objects, essentially defining how objects can interact, in space and in time.

1. A boy walk 140 m due north, 85 m due east, 35 m due southeast, 38 m due west and then 19 m due northwest. Calculate the displ
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

141 m at 65.6° N of E

Explanation:

Let E be along the positive x axis of a unit circle

N = 90°

E = 0°

SE = -45°

W = 180°

NW = 135°

east displacement

x = 140cos90 + 85cos0 + 35cos-45 + 38cos180 + 19cos135 = 58.313708... m

north displacement

y = 140sin90 + 85sin0 + 35sin-45 + 38sin180 + 19sin135 = 128.6862915... m

d = √(128.6862915² + 58.313708²) = 141.28216525... m

tanθ = 128.6862915 / 58.313708

θ = 65.622521...
