A ship is towed through a narrow channel by applying forces to three ropes attached to its bow. Determine the magnitude and orie

ntation θ of the force F→ so that the resultant force is in the direction of line a and the magnitude of F→ is as small as possible. Given: A = 5.5 kN.

This question is solved using an available similar problem as data provided for the forces was not given.

Repeat the same steps outlined for your problem.

Regards.

Answer:

F = 1.598 KN , Q = 90 degree (+ y-axis)

Explanation:

Sum of Forces in x-direction to the left (+)

2 cos (30) + 3cos (60) + F*cos (Q) = F_a   ..... 1

Sum of Forces in y-direction to the up (+)

2 sin (30) + F*sin (Q) - 3 sin (60)  ...... 2

Using Eq 2 and solve:

F*sin (Q) = 1.598 KN

F_min when sin (Q) is max, max possible value of sin(Q) = 1 @ Q = 90 degrees.

Hence,

F_min = 1.598 KN

Using Eq 1 @ Q = 90 degrees and F = 1.598 KN:

F_a = 2 cos (30) + 3cos (60)  = 3.2 KN

What is responsible for the production of x ray emission at the cutoff wavelength?
Katen [24]

Answer:

correct answer is option 5 (The emission by the incident electron when it loses its energy in a single emission)

Explanation:

The emission by the incident electron when it loses its energy in a single emission then X-rays of minimum wavelength which is also known as X-rays of cut-off wavelength are emitted.

If potential V is applied on coolidge tube then cut-off wavelength of the continuous X-ray spectrum is related to the accelerating potential  V   by following equation

\lambda_{cut-off} =\frac{hc}{eV} =\frac{12400}{V} Angstrom/V

What are the 3 lines drawn in finding the images with a lens?
Serga [27]
In the process of finding an image with a lens, three basic lines are usually drawn, the lines are as follows:
LINE ONE: This line represents the ray that leaves the object and travels towards the center of the lens. This line is usually undeflected and it travels through a straight line. 
LINE TWO: This line represents the ray which travels from the object parallel to the axis of the lens. The line is deflected in such a way that it passes through the focal point of the lens. 
LINE THREE: This line represents the ray that travels from the object and which passes through the focal point on the near side prior to getting to the lens. This line is deflected in such a way that it travels parallel to the axis. <span />
