Answer:

Explanation:

Because vector Y is longer than vector X

so when you take a magnitude( without minus ) each other

you see that Y>X

Answer:

Vectors Y has greater magnitude than vector X

Explanation:

The attached figure shows two vectors. A vector have both magnitude and direction.

The length of vector X is less than vector Y. They both are pointing in opposite directions.

The magnitude of a vector is given by :

a = xi +yj

$|a|=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

From the figure, it is clear that the vector Y has greater magnitude than vector X. Hence, the correct option is (B).

A mountain climber, in the process of crossing between two cliffs by a rope, pauses to rest. She weighs 514 N. As the drawing sh

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

$T_L = 155.4 N$

Part b)

$T_R = 379 N$

Explanation:

As we know that mountain climber is at rest so net force on it must be zero

So we will have force balance in X direction

$T_L cos65 = T_R cos80$

$T_L = 0.41 T_R$

now we will have force balance in Y direction

$mg = T_L sin65 + T_Rsin80$

$514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985T_R$

Part a)

so from above equations we have

$514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985(\frac{T_L}{0.41})$

$514 = 3.3 T_L$

$T_L = 155.4 N$

Part b)

Now for tension in right string we will have

$T_R = \frac{T_L}{0.41}$

$T_R = 379 N$

Wilma can mow a lawn in 80 minutes. Rocky can mow the same lawn in 120 minutes. Construct an equation that would allow you to de

xeze [42]

Answer:

$t = 96 minutes$

Explanation:

Time to mow 1 lawn by Wilma is 80 minutes

so work done in 1 minute by Wilma is given as

$W_1 = \frac{1}{80}$

Similarly Rocky mow same lawn in 120 minute

so work done in 1 minute by Rocky is given as

$W_2 = \frac{1}{120}$

now we know that they both worked by "t" time

so total work performed by them

$W = \frac{t}{80} + \frac{t}{120}$

they both mow 2 lawns then it is given as

$2 = (\frac{1}{80} + \frac{1}{120})t$

$t = 96 minutes$

If a metal ball suspended by a rod is at rest, which force is responsible for balancing the force due to gravity?

Viktor [21]

There are different kinds of forces; applied force, force of gravity, friction force, normal force, tension force. We will focus on the common forces, applied force and force of gravity. An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by another object. The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the weight of the object.
