Answer:

 T_ac = 6.586 KN

R = 10.51 KN

Explanation:

Given:

- Tension in cable T_ab = 9.1 KN

Find:

- Determine the required tension T in cable AC such that the net effect of the two cables is a downward force at point A

- Determine the magnitude R of this downward force.

Solution:

- Compute the three angles as shown in figure attached, a, B , y:

                                 a = arctan (40/50) = 38.36 degrees

                                 B = arctan (50/30) = 59.04 degrees

                                 y = 180 - 38.36 = 82.6 degrees

- Use cosine rule to calculate R and F_ac as follows:

                                 sin(a) / T_ac = sin(B) / T_ab = sin(y) / R

                                 sin(38.36) / T_ac = sin(59.04) / 9.1 = sin(82.06) / R

                                 T_ac = 9.1 * ( sin(38.36) / sin(59.04) )

                                T_ac = 6.586 KN

                                 R = 9.1 * ( sin(82.06) / sin(59.04) )

                                 R = 10.51 KN

A plastic rod of length d = 1.5 m lies along the x-axis with its midpoint at the origin. The rod carries a uniform linear charge
Serga [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the plastic rod extends from - L to + L .

consider a small length of dx on the rod on the positive x axis at distance x . charge on it =  λ dx where  λ is linear charge density .

It will create a field at point P on y -axis . Distance of point P

= √ x² + .15²

electric field at P due to small charged length

dE = k λ dx x  / (x² + .15² )

Its component along Y - axis

= dE cosθ where θ is angle between direction of field dE and y axis

= dE x .15 / √ x² + .15²

=  k λ dx  .15 / (x² + .15² )³/²

If we consider the same strip along the x axis at the same position  on negative x axis , same result will be found . It is to be noted that the component of field in perpendicular to y axis will cancel out each other . Now for electric field due to whole rod at point p , we shall have to integrate the above expression from - L to + L

E = ∫  k λ  .15  / (x² + .15² )³/² dx

=  k λ  x L / .15 √( L² / 4 + .15² )

What are the two types of electrical circuits
uysha [10]

Series Circuit
A series circuit there is only one path for the electrons to flow (see image of series circuit). The main disadvantage of a series circuit is that if there is a break in the circuit the entire circuit is open and no current will flow. An example of a series would the the lights on many inexpensive Christmas trees. If one light goes out all of them will.



Parallel Circuit
In a parallel circuit the different parts of the electric circuit are on several different branches. There are several different paths that electrons can flow. If there is a break in one branch of the circuit electrons can still flow in other branches (see image of parallel circuit). Your home is wired in a parallel circuit so if one light bulb goes out the other will stay on.
