Answer: The x-component of the total force 97N

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass (M) of skier = 73.9 kg

Pull force on the skier = 105N

Angle of pull = 22.5°

The direct backward force directly pulling the skier = 74.8N

the x-component of the total force on the skier

The horizontal component of the force = Magnitude of the pulling force × cosine of the angle of pull (FCosΘ)

FCosΘ = 105cos22.5°

105cos22.5 = 105 × 0.9238795

= 97.007350

= 97N

The backward force acting directly backward = 74.8N

Therefore, net x - component of the total force equals ;

97N - 74.8N = 22.2N

the average power of the Sun is 3.79x1026 Watts, answer the following questions: 13. What is the average intensity of light at E
Lemur [1.5K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Average power of sun P=3.79\times10^{26}\ Watt

We need to calculate the intensity of light at Earth's position

Using formula of intensity

I=\dfrac{P_{avg}}{4\pi r^2}

Where, I = intensity

P = power

Put the value into the formula

I=\dfrac{3.79\times10^{26}}{4\pi\times(1.496\times10^{11})^2}

I=1347.616\ W/m^2

So, The intensity is 1347.616 W/m².

(A). We need to calculate the pressure on a solar sail due to the light of the sun if it's fully reflective

Using formula for fully reflective

P = \dfrac{2I}{c}

Put the value into the formula

P=\dfrac{2\times1347.616}{3\times10^{8}}

P=8.984\times10^{-6}\ N/m

(B).  We need to calculate the pressure on a solar sail due to the light of the sun if it's fully reflective

Using formula for fully absorptive

P=\dfrac{I}{c}

P=\dfrac{1347.616}{3\times10^{8}}

P=4.492\times10^{-6}\ N/m

Hence, This is the required solution.

What is the average speed for the entire graph?
Maru [420]

Answer:

Explanation:

Divide the total distance traveled by the total time spent traveling. This will give you your average speed. . So if Ben traveled 150 miles in 3 hours, 120 miles in 2 hours, and 70 miles in 1 hour, his average speed was about 57 mph.

Irina rode her bike to work at an average speed of 16 miles per hour. It started to rain, so she got a ride home along the same
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

0.7 hours

Explanation:

From the way back, we can calculate the distance between Irina's work and Irina's home. In fact, we know that the car takes 0.4 hourse traveling at 27 mph, so the distance covered should be

d=vt=(27 mph)(0.4 h)=10.8 mi

When Irina rides to work with her bike, she travels at a speed of 16 mph. So we can find the time she takes by dividing the total distance (10.8 miles) by her speed:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{10.8 mi}{16 mph}=0.7 h

The element Ne, neon, has ____ (number) complete shells having its ____ electrons in second _____.
KatRina [158]

Answer:

2, 8 and shell

Explanation:

Neon as atomic number 10. Since for each shell, electrons equal 2n².

When n = 1, 2n² = 2(1)² = 2

When n = 2, 2n² = 2(2)² = 8

So it fills both the first and second shell with 2 and 8 electrons respectively to achieve its stable atomic state. The rest of the 8 electrons go into the second shell because the first shell has achieved its stable dual configuration of two electrons. The next shell requires a maximum of 8 electrons to achieve stability so, the remaining electrons fill it up to achieve the stable octet configuration.
