a 20N mass is supported by two ropes. what is the tension in each rope? how woould i work this problem if i know the two angles

and thats the only info i know.

Before we could discuss this in any specific detail, I think we would have to
know the angles.  A generic discussion without actual numbers for the angles
would be just plain too confusing.

The general approach is that the vertical components of both tensions
add up to 20N, and the horizontal components are equal but in opposite
directions.  That's the only way that the mass is hanging motionless.

You have to find the horizontal and vertical components of the tensions
by using the angles and maybe the lengths of the ropes.

During a supernova, the outer layers of a star are blown off and the star's core shrinks down by a factor of 10,000 or more to f
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

a. the core will spin faster.

Explanation:

By law of conservation of angular momentum

(mvR)i= (mvR)f

m= mass of star

v= speed of star

R= radius of star

i= initial

f= final

since, size(R) of the star is reduced by factor of 10,000 and mass remains the same, the velocity must increase by the same factor to keep the angular momentum conserved.

Hence, a. the core will spin faster.

If a receiver is overly selective:
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C) only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results.

Explanation:

Selectivity is the ability of a receiver to respond only to a specific signal on a wanted frequency and reject other signals nearby in frequency.

If a receiver is overly selective, only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results. Whereas, if a receiver is underselective, the receiver can pick different signals on different frequencies at the same time.

Squids propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracting the cavity
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

v_squid = - 2,286 m / s

Explanation:

This exercise can be solved using conservation of the moment, the system is made up of the squid plus the water inside, therefore the force to expel the water is an internal force and the moment is conserved.

Initial moment. Before expelling the water

          p₀ = 0

the squid is at rest

Final moment. After expelling the water

         p_{f} = M V_squid + m v_water

         p₀ = p_{f}

          0 = M V_squid + m v_water

           c_squid = -m v_water / M

The mass of the squid without water is

            M = 9 -2 = 7 kg

let's calculate

           v_squid = 2 8/7

           v_squid = - 2,286 m / s

The negative sign indicates that the squid is moving in the opposite direction of the water
