Three forces act on an object. a 3 n force acts due east and a 8 n force acts due north. if the net force on the object is zero,

what is the magnitude of the third force?"

The third force C is in the opposite direction of the sum of the first two forces, A+B, but the magnitude is the same as A+B  

Since A & B are at right angles we can just use Pythagoras and trig:  

A+B magnitude = sqrt(6^2 + 3^2) = 6.71  

A+B angle = arctan(6/3) deg north of east = 63.4 deg (first quadrant)

So C magnitude = 6.71 (same as A+B)  

[C angle = 63.4 deg south of west (third quadrant) = -180+63.4 deg polar = -116.6 deg

Use the circuit diagram to decide if the lightbulb will light. Justify your answer.
podryga [215]

Answer:

The lightbulb will NOT light.

Explanation:

You put me in a difficult position.  I can't help it, but the "sample answer" is by far the best way to explain this, briefly and correctly.  There's no other choice but to copy it.

This is a short circuit. The branch without the bulb has almost no resistance, so all the current will flow through that branch instead of flowing through the bulb.

<em>If</em> the lower switch were <u>opened</u>, THEN we would have a series circuit.  Current would no longer have any other choice but to flow through the bulb, and the bulb would light.

Which of these objects are malleable? Check all that apply.
g100num [7]

Answer:

The tin fork and knife, the copper coin, and the steel fence pole.

Explanation:

Those are both what people would call soft metals so they are malleable to the extent of probably not needing heavy duty equipment. It depends on you description of malleable because the steel fence pole could be malleable with the correct equipment and not snap in half if bent slowly enough.

The definition of malleable: (of a metal or other material) able to be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking.

But the glass table, marble sculpture and antique ceramic vase are nowhere near malleable because if you tried bending them they wouldn't bend but would shatter and break into pieces.

Determine the mass of Ar in 1.00 liter of a gas mixture at 25oC which contains 0.300 atm of Ne and has a total pressure of 4.00
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The mass of Ar is 36.91g

Explanation:

The gas mixture consist of Neon(Ne) and Argon(Ar)

Partial pressure of Ar = total pressure of mixture - partial pressure = 4 - 0.3 = 3.7 atm

Mole fraction of Ar = partial pressure of Ar ÷ total pressure of mixture = 3.7/4 = 0.925

Mass of Ar = 0.925 × molecular weight of Ar = 0.925 × 39.9 = 36.91g
