If an electric train is moving north at 100mph and the wind is blowing to the west at 10mph, which way does the smoke blow?

---------------------------

combining the velocity vectors

angle whose tangent is 10/100 = 0.1

angle whose tan is 0.1 north west

Heidi (39 kg) is walking her tiny chihuahua, Chaxi (5.60 kg), on the sidewalk. To encourage Chaxi along, Heidi pulls forward wit

Ivan

Answer:

The correct reaction force in response to Heidi's action force is:

c. The friction is equal to 660 N since the beam is not accelerating.

Explanation:

Heidi's action force does not affect the beam. Since friction resists the sliding or rolling of one solid object over another, there is no friction acting on the beam, in this respect. The reaction force is what makes the dog to move because it acts on it. According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, forces always come in action-reaction pairs. This Third Law states that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force. This means that the dog exerts some force on Heidi, as he pulls it "forward with a force of 9.55 N."

light inside the thin glass tube of a laparoscopic surgical device strikes the edge of the glass tube and is entirely reflected

vovangra [49]

Light striking the walls of the glass cylinder and reflecting in inside tube itself is a phenomenon known as total internal reflection.

<h3>What word best describes reflection, in your opinion?</h3>

Reflection is often synonymous with the verbs cogitate, contemplate, reason, hypothesize, and think. All of these expressions mean "using one's intellect, judgment, or inference faculties," but the word "reflect" means carefully considering a recollection.

<h3>What does it mean to give reflection some thought?</h3>

constant verb When you ruminate, you seriously consider something. Alternatives include thinking, analyzing, planning, and thinking. More phrases containing "reflect" Reflecting feelings is the act of observing a person's verbal and nonverbal signs for their emotions and feelings, then immediately communicating (or reflecting) those attitudes to the user or customer.

Answer:

1) the unit of power is A.Watt

2)100J=50W

100=50s

divide both sides by 50s

S=2s(A)

Two teams of nine members each engage in tug-of-war. Each of the first team's members has an average mass of 68 kg and exerts an

diamong [38]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration = 0.1063 m/s^2 (Second team wins)

(b) Tension in rope = 65.106 N

Explanation:

Total mass of first team = 68 * 9 = 612 kg

Total force of first team = 1350 * 9 = 12150 N

Total mass of second team = 73 * 9 = 657 kg

Total force of seconds team = 1365 * 9 = 12285 N

Difference in force = 12285 - 12150 = 135 N (towards the second team as it has more force)

(a) For acceleration we get:

F = m * a

135 = (mass of both teams) * a

a = 135 / (612 + 657)

acceleration = 0.1063 m/s^2 (Second team wins)

(b) Since we know the acceleration of the first team (pulling being pulled towards the second team at an acceleration of 0.1063 m/s^2) , we can find out the force required to move them:

Force required for first team = mass of first team * acceleration

Force required = 612 * 0.1063

Force required = 65.106 N

This is the force exerted on the first team through the rope, so the tension in the rope will also be 65.106 N.
