Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

According to the question:

Force exerted by the team towards south, F = 10 N

Force exerted by the opposite team towards North, F' = 17 N

Net Force, \vec{F_{net}} = \vec{F'} - \vec{F}

\vec{F_{net}} = \vec{F'} - \vec{F} = 17 - 10 = 7 N

Thus the force will be along the direction of force whose magnitude is higher

Therefore,

\vec{F_{net}} = 7 N towards North

A team of engineering students is testing their newly designed 200 kg raft in the pool where the diving team practices. The raft
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The water level rises more when the cube is located above the raft before submerging.

Explanation:

These kinds of problems are based on the principle of Archimedes, who says that by immersing a body in a volume of water, the initial water level will be increased, raising the water level. That is, the height in the container with water will rise in level. The difference between the new volume and the initial volume of the water will be the volume of the submerged body.

Now we have two moments when the steel cube is held by the raft and when it is at the bottom of the pool.

When the cube is at the bottom of the water we know that the volume will increase, and we can calculate this volume using the volume of the cube.

Vc = 0.45*0.45*0.45 = 0.0911 [m^3]

Now when a body floats it is because a balance is established in the densities, the density of the body and the density of the water.

Ro_{H2O}=R_{c+r}\\where:\\Ro_{H2O}= water density = 1000 [kg/m^3]\\Ro_{c+r}= combined density cube + raft [kg/m^3]

Density is given by:

Ro = m/V

where:

m= mass [kg]

V = volume [m^3]

The buoyancy force can be calculated using the following equation:

F_{B}=W=Ro_{H20}*g*Vs\\W = (200+730)*9.81\\W=9123.3[N]\\\\9123=1000*9.81*Vs\\Vs = 0.93 [m^3]

Vs > Vc, What it means is that the combined volume of the raft and the cube is greater than that of the cube at the bottom of the pool. Therefore the water level rises more when the cube is located above the raft before submerging.

The emissivity of an ideal reflector has which of the following values?
Wittaler [7]

Emissivityis a measure of how much thermal radiation a body emits to its environment. On the other hand we have that reflectivity is a measure of how much is reflected, and transmissivity  is a measure of how much passes through the object. If a body is required to be ideally reflective to its maximum efficiency, the body should NOT have the property of transmissivity or emissivity. Therefore it should be 0 its emittivity.

Correct answer would be A : ZERO.

A block is pulled across a flat surface at a constant speed using a force of 50 newtons at an angle of 60 degrees above the hori
vladimir2022 [97]

The magnitude of the friction force is 25 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we just have to analyze the forces acting on the block along the horizontal direction. We have:

  • The horizontal component of the pulling force, F cos \theta, where F = 50 N is the magnitude and \theta=60^{\circ} is the angle between the direction of the force and the horizontal; this force acts in the  forward direction
  • The force of friction, F_f, acting in the backward direction

According to Newton's second law, the net force acting on the block in the horizontal direction must be equal to the product between the mass of the block and its acceleration:

\sum F_x = ma_x

where

m is the mass of the block

a_x is the horizontal acceleration

However, the block is moving at constant speed, so the acceleration is zero:

a_x = 0

So the equation becomes

\sum F_x = 0 (1)

The net force here is given by

\sum F_x = F cos \theta - F_f (2)

And so, by combining (1) and (2), we find the magnitude of the friction force:

F cos \theta - F_f = 0\\F_f = F cos \theta = (50)(cos 60^{\circ})=25 N

__________ is when a person becomes less sensitive to a drug. A. Tolerance B. Craving C. Addiction D. Dependence
Luden [163]
A) Tolerance

Tolerance is developed after using a drug repeatedly, so the body adapts to it. Because of that, people who develop a tolerance would then need to use more of that drug to get the same effect.
