Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 2.20×106 N , one at an angle 19.0 ∘ west of north,

and the other at an angle 19.0 ∘ east of north, as they pull the tanker a distance 0.720 km toward the north.What is the total work done by the two tugboats on the supertanker?Express your answer in joules, to three significant figures.

Answer:

=2.99\times10^9J

Explanation:

According to the question

net force F = 2.20×10^6 N

displacement S = 0.72\times10^3m

from figure , the horizontal forces are same in magnitude and opposite direction.

so , neglect these two forces.

we can take only vertical components of the force.

total force F' = F cos 19° + F cos 19°

= 2×F×cos 19°   ................. (1

therefore , total work is

W = F'S

= (2F cos19)×S

= (2)(2.20\times10^6 N)cos19° (0.720\times10^3 m)

=2.99\times10^9J

True or false: When your ear detects sound, there is an actual collision of particles from the sound wave that hit your ear drum
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

True: For a sound wave to propagate, air particles must be displaced in the direction of propagation - it is the displacement of these particles that causes the eardrum to vibrate and recognize the sound.

A wooden ring whose mean diameter is 15.0 cm is wound with a closely spaced toroidal winding of 555 turns. Compute the magnitude
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

9.916\times 10^{-4}T

Explanation:

Diameter of toroid is 15 cm =0.15 m

So length of the toroid is l=\pi d=3.14\times 0.15=0.471\ m

Number of turns of the toriod is given as 555

Current through the toroid is 0.670 A

Magnetic field B=\mu _0ni=\mu _0\frac{N}{L}i=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times \frac{555}{0.471}\times 0.670=9.916\times 10^{-4}T

If a vector A has components A. 0, and Ay -0, then the magnitude of the vector is negative. Select one: True False
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The magnitude of any vector is given by,

||A||=\sqrt{A_x^2+A_y^2}

The magnitude of anything is never negative. It can be even seen from the formula that the components are squared. A squared value can never be negative. Even if the component is negative the square will be always positive.

So, magnitude of the vector is <u>not</u> negative.
