Answer:

141.147 km

Explanation:

$sin45=\frac{BD}{BC}\\\Rightarrow BD=BCsin45\\\Rightarrow BD=40\times sin45\\\Rightarrow BD=28.28\ km$

Now, AE=BD also CD=BD as the angle B and C are equal

So, from Pythagoras theorem

AC² = AE²+(CD+DE)²

$AC=\sqrt{AE^2+(CD+DE)^2}\\\Rightarrow AC=\sqrt{(40\times sin45)^2+(110+40\times sin45)^2}\\\Rightarrow AC=141.147\ km$

Displacement of the car is 141.147 km

A sled of mass 50 kg is pulled along a snow-covered, flat ground. The static friction coefficient is 0.3 and the kinetic frictio

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

a) We kindly invite you to see below the Free Body Diagram of the forces acting on the sled.

b) The weight of the sled is 490.35 newtons.

c) A force of 147.105 newtons is needed to start the sled moving.

d) A force of 49.035 newtons is needed to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity.

Explanation:

a) We kindly invite you to see below the Free Body Diagram of the forces acting on the sled. All forces are listed:

$F$ - External force exerted on the sled, measured in newtons.

$f$ - Friction force, measured in newtons.

$N$ - Normal force from the ground on the mass, measured in newtons.

$W$ - Weight, measured in newtons.

b) The weight of the sled is determined by the following formula:

$W = m\cdot g$ (1)

Where:

$m$ - Mass, measured in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

If we know that $m = 50\,kg$ and $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , the weight of the sled is:

$W = (50\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$W = 490.35\,N$

The weight of the sled is 490.35 newtons.

c) The minimum force needed to start the sled moving on the horizontal ground is:

$F_{min,s} = \mu_{s}\cdot W$ (2)

Where:

$\mu_{s}$ - Static coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

$W$ - Weight of the sled, measured in newtons.

If we know that $\mu_{s} = 0.3$ and $W = 490.35\,N$ , then the force needed to start the sled moving is:

$F_{min,s} = 0.3\cdot (490.35\,N)$

$F_{min,s} = 147.105\,N$

A force of 147.105 newtons is needed to start the sled moving.

d) The minimum force needed to keep the sled moving at constant velocity is:

$F_{min,k} = \mu_{k}\cdot W$ (3)

Where $\mu_{k}$ is the kinetic coefficient of friction, dimensionless.

If we know that $\mu_{k} = 0.1$ and $W = 490.35\,N$ , then the force needed to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity is:

$F_{min,k} = 0.1\cdot (490.35\,N)$

$F_{min,k} = 49.035\,N$

A force of 49.035 newtons is needed to keep the sled moving at a constant velocity.

Answer:

1. well the value may vary because of different reactions to the technology because its new to a lot of people but to younger ones its something normal and something we cant live without but with older ones its something that they have lived without for most of there life.

What is the magnitude of the electric field strength between them, if the potential 7.95 cm from the zero volt plate (and 2.05 c

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

ΔVab = Ed

ΔVab = Va-Vb = Va-V0 = Va

E = Va/ d

= 413V / 0.0795 m

= 5194.97 V/M

Explanation:

the potential difference between two uniform plates is calculated by the formula of electric field.

What are all the principles of Cell Theory. Group of answer choices Cell only form from living cells All cells have chromosomes

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Cell theory is the scientific theory that states that all living things are composed of cells and that cells are the basic unit of life. The three principles of cell theory are the cell is the smallest unit of life, all cells come from preexisting cells, and cells are the basic unit of function in living things.
