Answer: 4,32 10^10 m

Explanation: The relationshiop between the light speed, distance and time is given by:

speed of light = distance/time

distance= speed of ligth * time

distance= 3*10^8 m/s * 2.4*60 s= 4,32*10^10 m

Where coastal rock is softer, waves erode the land faster ​
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Headlands and bays are created where there are bands of hard and soft rock which meet the coastline at right angles. Softer rock is eroded more quickly and erodes backwards to form bays (which may have beaches). The harder rocks are more resistant to erosion and jut out into the sea to form exposed headlands

The sensor in the torso of a crash test dummy records the magnitude and direction of the net force acting on the dummy.If the du
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Here in crash test the two forces are acting on the dummy in two different directions

As we know that force is a vector quantity so we need to use vector addition laws in order to find the resultant force on it.

So here two forces are given in perpendicular direction with each other so as per vector addition law we need to use Pythagoras theorem to find the resultant of two vectors

so we can say

F_{net} = \sqrt{F_1^2 + F_2^2}

here given that

F_1 = 130.0 N

F_2 = 4500.0 N

now we will plug in all data in the above equation

F_{net} = \sqrt{4500^2 + 130^}

F_{net} = 4501.9 N

so it will have net force 4501.9 N which will be reported by sensor

A traffic light is weighing 200N hangs from a vertical cable tied to two other cables that are fastened to a support. The upper
Levart [38]

Answer:

T₁ = 93.6 N , T₂ = 155.6 N , T₃ = 200 N

Explanation:

This is a balance exercise where we must apply the expressions for translational balance in the two axes

     ∑  F = 0

Suppose that cable t1 goes to the left and the angles are 41º with respect to the horizontal and cable t2 goes to the right with angles of 63º

decompose the tension of the two upper cables

          cos 41 = T₁ₓ / T1

          sin 41 = T₁y / T1

          T₁ₓ = T₁  cos 41

          T₁y= T₁  sin 41

for cable gold

           cos 63 = T₂ / T₂

           sin 63 = T_{2y} / T₂

We apply the two-point equilibrium equation: The junction point of the three cables and the point where the traffic light joins the vertical cable.

Let's start by analyzing the point where the traffic light meets the vertical cable

              T₃ - W = 0

              T₃ = W

              T₃ = 200 N

now let's write the equations for the single point of the three wires

X axis

   - T₁ₓ + T₂ₓ = 0

  T₁ₓ = T₂ₓ

   T1 cos 41 = T2 cos 63

   T1 = T2 cos 63 / cos 41                (1)

y Axis

      T_{1y} + T_{2y} - T3 = 0

       T₁ sin 41 + T₂ sin 63 = T₃          (2)

to solve the system we substitute equation 1 in 2

        T₂ cos 63 / cos 41 sin 41 + T₂ sin 63 = W

         T₂ (cos 63 tan 41 + sin 63) = W

         T₂ = W / (cos 63 tan 41 + sin 63)

We calculate

          T₂ = 200 / (cos 63 tan 41 + sin 63)

          T₂ = 200 / 1,2856

           T₂ = 155.6 N

we substitute in 1

            T₁ = T₂ cos 63 / cos 41

             T₁ = 155.6 cos63 / cos 41

             T₁ = 93.6 N

therefore the tension in each cable is

            T₁ = 93.6 N

             T₂ = 155.6 N

             T₃ = 200 N
