? A body is suspended from the ceiling with two wires that make an angle of 40° with the ceiling. The weight of the body is 150N

. What is the tension in each wire?

So, the weight is supported by the tension in the two wires, but only part of the tension goes in holding the body: the vertical component.

If the angle between the ceiling and the wire is 40 deg, then the vertical component is

T_y = T * sin(40),

There are two wires, so together they do

2*T*sin(40)

And all this holds the weight of the body, so:

2*T*sin(40)=150 ----> T = 75/sin(40)~116.68 N,

Notice how it is larger than 150N (both wires is ~ 233 N), as the angle becomes smaller, there is less tension that is vertical, so one needs more tension to make the vertical component as large as (half) the weight of the body

Hope it helps!

What are limits that would be age appropriate for teens vs toddlers? give me some examples of limits that you may have for a tee
Pavlova-9 [17]

The limits which would be age appropriate for toddlers include being flexible and realistic while that of a teen should be more rigid.

<h3>Who are Toddlers?</h3>

This refers to a child whose age ranges from 1 year to 4 years and limits set for them should be flexible due to it helping them feel more secure and decreases anxiety.

Example of limits that you may have for a teen is reducing their screen time while an example of limits for toddlers is correcting their junk eating habits. Teens should have a rigid limit so as to enable them do the right things at all times due to their strong emotions.

Tunicates resemble a _____ on the sea floor. rod square sac hole
zubka84 [21]

Answer: sac

Tunicates are sea squirts that are found in the marine water. These animals remains attached to the rocks and the sea beds. They exhibit a body shape which looks like a barrel. The barrel has two openings called as siphons. These siphon helps in the intake of the food particles and oxygen. These animals look like sac on the sea floor.

Richard is driving home to visit his parents. 135 mi of the trip are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph .
Elis [28]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

He saves 13.2 minutes

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hey! The question is incomplete, but it can be found on the internet. The question is:

How many minutes did he save?

Let's call:

t_{1}:Time \ at \ speed \ 65mph \\ \\ t_{2}:Time \ at \ speed \ 73mph \\ \\ v_{1}=65mph \\ \\ v_{2}=73mph

We know that the 135 miles are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph. From this, we can calculate the time it takes to drive on this highway. Assuming Richard maintains constant the speed:

v=\frac{d}{t} \\ \\ d:distance \\ \\ t:time \\ \\ v:velocity \\ \\ t_{1}=\frac{d}{v_{1}} \\ \\ t=\frac{135}{65} \\ \\ t_{1}=2.07 \ hours

Today he is running late and decides to take his chances by driving at 73 mph, so the new time it takes to take the trip is:

t_{2}=\frac{135}{73} \\ \\ t_{2}=1.85 \ hours

So he saves the time t_{s}:

t_{s}=t_{1}-t_{2}=2.07-1.85=0.22 \ hours

In minutes:

t_{s}=0.22h\left(\frac{60min}{1h}\right) \\ \\ \boxed{t_{s}=13.2min}
