<span>If there isn't any force then the normal contact force will be 


N=m*g=7.5*9.81=73.58N 

which is 73.58-23=50.58N less 

so, there the person must pull at 23 degree upward 

break down the tension in two components, vertical and horizontal. 


vertical tension= 50.58=T*sin23 

T=50.58/sin23=129.45N</span>

Answer:

Total tension in the person's arm = 58.82 N

Explanation:

Normal Contact Force: Normal contact force is the vertical  component of the contact force that is perpendicular to the surface that an object makes contact with.

As shown in fig.1 in the diagram on the attached file below.

The Normal contact force (R) = Tsinθ = The vertical component of T

Where T = Total tension in the person's arm (N), θ = angle of inclination to the horizontal.

∴ R = Tsinθ

T = R/sinθ where R= 23N, θ =23°

T = 23/sin23° = 23/0.391

T = 58.82 N

∴ Total tension in the person's arm = 58.52 N

Difference between of echo and reverberation​
KiRa [710]

Answer:

A difference between of echo and reverberation​  is described below in details.

Explanation:

Here's a piece of immediate information: An echo is an individual consideration of a soundwave off a horizon exterior. Reverberation is the consideration of sound waves generated by the superposition of the before-mentioned echoes. ... A reverberation can happen when a sound wave is displayed off a nearby covering.

A battery charges a parallel-plate capacitor fully and then is removed. The plates are immediately pulled apart. (With the batte
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<em>There will be an increase in potential difference.</em>

Explanation:

As we know that the potential difference depends upon the capacitance.

ΔV = Q/C

When battery is disconnected the charge remains constant on the plates but the capacitance decreases. As the capacitance has an inverse relation with the potential difference, there will be an increase in it.

In addition to that the potential difference can also be defined as the product of field and distance between the plates. As the charge is constant so the field is constant. Upon increasing the separation between the plates the potential difference will also increased.

A car travels 2155.0m in 195.9s. What is the car's average speed?
inna [77]

Average speed of the car is 11 m/s

Explanation:

  • Speed is calculated by the rate of change of displacement.
  • It is given by the formula, Speed = Distance/Time
  • Here, distance = 2155 m and time = 195.9 s

Speed of the car = 2155/195.9 = 11 m/s
