Answer:

T = 480.2N

Explanation:

In order to find the required force, you take into account that the sum of forces must be equal to zero if the object has a constant speed.

The forces on the boxes are:

T-Mg=0      (1)

T: tension of the rope

M: mass of the boxes 0= 49kg

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

The pulley is frictionless, then, you can assume that the tension of the rope T, is equal to the force that the woman makes.

By using the equation (1) you obtain:

T=Mg=(49kg)(9.8m/s^2)=480.2N

The woman needs to pull the rope at 480.2N

A person's prescription for bifocals is -0.25 diopter for distant vision and +2.50 diopters for near vision, the near vision bei
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

net power is + 2.25 D

Explanation:

Given data

distance vision = -0.25 D

near vision = + 2.50 D

to find out

net power

solution

we have given a person lens power for near is - 0.25 diopter and lens power for near power is  +2.50 diopter so

net power is sum of both the power vision

so

net power = distance + near power

put both value we get net power

net power = ( -0.25 D) + ( + 2.50 D)

net power = + 2.25 D

so net power is + 2.25 D

How does the balloon react to the cloth item?
almond37 [142]

Answer: When rubbing a balloon with a wool cloth, it puts negative charges on the balloon. Negative charges attract to positive charges. If a balloon is not rubbed with the wool cloth, it has an equal amount of negative to positive charges, so it will attract to a rubbed balloon.

Define neuron and nerve<br>cell​
san4es73 [151]

Answer: Hi!

A neuron is a basic working unit of the brain. Neurons are special cells designed to transfer information to other nerve, muscle, or gland cells. They are pretty cool - looking too! (A slightly irregular circular shape with branches reaching out from all sides.) A neuron is a nerve cell. Nerve cells are the way of communication in the nervous system.

Hope this helps!

What do we mean by the event horizon of a black hole?
TEA [102]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The event horizon is the surface of a black hole, it is the border of space-time in which the events on one side of it can not affect an observer on the other side.  

That is, at this border also called "point of no return", nothing can escape (not even light) and no event that occurs within it can be seen from outside.
