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.

A ball is dropped from the top of the building.it initially moves at 4.0 m/s after 0.5 seconds it moves at 3.8m/s what force is
Ivahew [28]

The correct answer is

Air resistance

In fact, when a ball is in free fall, there are two forces acting on it:

- its weight (force of gravity), acting downward

- the air resistance, acting upward

The effect of the weight is to accelerate the ball, because its direction is the same as the direction of motion of the ball, while the effect of the air resistance is to slow down the ball, because its direction is opposite to that of the motion.

Paolo says that his bicycle is hard to pedal.Mia looks at the bicycle and tells him he needs to oil the chain.explain why oiling
laila [671]

Answer:

Less friction

Explanation:

Paolo's bike is too difficult to pedal because there is too much friction in the mechanisms of the bike. To reduce friction, Paolo must oil the chain. This will make the bike run much more smoothly and allow for easier pedalling.

The speed of a moving bullet can be deter-
Bad White [126]

Answer:

<em>v = 381 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Linear Speed</u>

The linear speed of the bullet is calculated by the formula:

\displaystyle v=\frac{x}{t}

Where:

x = Distance traveled

t = Time needed to travel x

We are given the distance the bullet travels x=61 cm = 0.61 m. We need to determine the time the bullet took to make the holes between the two disks.

The formula for the angular speed of a rotating object is:

\displaystyle \omega=\frac{\theta}{t}

Where θ is the angular displacement and t is the time. Solving for t:

\displaystyle t=\frac{\theta}{\omega}

The angular displacement is θ=14°. Converting to radians:

\theta=14*\pi/180=0.2443\ rad

The angular speed is w=1436 rev/min. Converting to rad/s:

\omega = 1436*2\pi/60=150.3776\ rad/s

Thus the time is:

\displaystyle t=\frac{0.2443\ rad}{150.3776\ rad/s}

t = 0.0016 s

Thus the speed of the bullet is:

\displaystyle v=\frac{0.61}{0.0016}

v = 381 m/s
