Answer:

Q = 40.1 degrees

Explanation:

Given:

- The weight of the timber W = 670 N

- Water surface level from pivot y = 2.1 m

- The specific density of water Y = 9810 N / m^3

- Dimension of timber = (0.15 x 0.15 x 0.0036) m

Find:

- The angle of inclination Q that the timber makes with the horizontal.

Solution:

- Calculate the Flamboyant Force F_b acting upwards at a distance x along the timber, which is unknown:

                                   F_b = Y * V_timber

                                   F_b = 9810*0.15*0.15*x

                                   F_b = 226.7*x N

- Take static equilibrium conditions for the timber, and take moments about the pivot:

                                   (M)_p = 0

                                   W*0.5*3.6*cos(Q) - x/2 * F_b*cos(Q) = 0

- Plug values in:

                                   670*0.5*3.6 - x^2 * 0.5*226.7 = 0

                                   x^2 = 1206 / 113.35

                                   x = 3.26 m

- Now use the value of x and vertical height y to compute the angle of inclination to be:

                                   sin(Q) = y / x

                                   sin(Q) = 2.1 / 3.26

                                   Q = sin^-1 (0.6441718)

                                   Q = 40.1 degrees

son4ous [18]

The force exerted by the magnetic in terms of the magnetic field is,

F\propto B

Where B is the magnetic fied strength and F is the force.

Thus, if the magnetic A has twice magnetic field strength than the magnet B,

Then,

B_A=2B_B

Thus, the force exerted by the magnet B is,

\begin{gathered} F_B\propto B_B \\ F_B\propto\frac{B_A}{2} \\ F_B=\frac{F_A}{2} \\ F_B=\frac{100}{2} \\ F_B=50\text{ N} \end{gathered}

Thus, the force exerted by the magnet B on magnet A is 50 N.

The force exerted by the magnet A exerts on the magnet B is exactly 100 N as given.

Hence, the option B is the correct answer.

Given a particle that has the velocity v(t) = 3 cos(mt) = 3 cos (0.5t) meters, a. Find the acceleration at 3 seconds. b. Find th
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )  V = 3 cos(0.5t)

differentiating with respect to t

dv /dt = -3 x .5 sin0.5t

= -1.5 sin0.5t.

acceleration = - 1.5 sin 0.5t

when t = 3 s

acceleration = - 1.5 sin 1.5

= - 1.496 ms⁻²

v = 3 cos.5t

b )  dx/dt = 3 cos 0.5 t

dx = 3 cos 0.5 t dt

integrating on both sides

x = 3 sin .5t / .5

x = 6 sin0.5t

At t = 2 s

x = 6 sin 1

x = 5.05 m

Why is a shadow formed
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. The size and shape of a shadow depend on the position and size of the light source compared to the object.

A 1000-kilogram car traveling due east at 15 meters per second hit from behind and receives a forward impulse of 6000 newton-sec
strojnjashka [21]

The change in momentum of the car is 6000 kg m/s

Explanation:

According to the impulse theorem, the change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse exerted on the object, therefore:

\Delta p = I

where

\Delta p is the change in momentum

I is the impulse exerted

For the car in this problem, the impulse received is

I = 6000 kg m/s (in the forward direction)

Therefore, the change in momentum of the car is equal to this value:

\Delta p = I = 6000 kg m/s (in the forward direction)

We can also calculate what is the new momentum of the car. In fact, the initial momentum is

p_i = mu = (1000 kg)(15 m/s)=15,000 kg m/s

And  so, the new momentum is

p_f = p_i + \Delta p = 15,000 + 6,000 = 21,000 kg m/s
