QUESTION 3 ( MARKS]

Physics

Answer:

392 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the rod.  There are four forces acting on the rod:

At the wall, you have horizontal and vertical reaction forces, Rx and Ry.

At the other end of the rod (point X), you have the weight of the sign pointing down, mg.

Also at point X, you have the tension in the wire, T, pulling at an angle θ from the -x axis.

Sum of the moments at the wall:

∑τ = Iα

(T sin θ) L − (mg) L = 0

T sin θ − mg = 0

T = mg / sin θ

Given m = 20 kg and θ = 30.0°:

T = (20 kg) (9.8 m/s²) / (sin 30.0°)

T = 392 N

Remote controls enable users to adjust the volume and channel of televisions without having to touch the television. Which of th
Grace [21]

Answer:

When you use your control remote, you can see that there is not a "material" thing that comes out of the control remote and goes to the TV, but there is actually energy that comes from the control remote (and this is why your control remote needs battery)

This energy is called an "electromagnetic wave" usually in the infrared range, this means that the energy that comes from the control remote has less energy than the visible red light (and this is why we can not see the light that comes out of the control remote), and this "signal" is read by the TV, in order to change of channel or change the volume.

You even can see that there is a sort of light (electromagnetic wave) coming out from it if you point with a camera to the small bulb that is in the front of the control remote.

Pand S waves are both
leva [86]

Answer:

3.body

Explanation:

Both P and S waves are both body waves. Body waves are waves that travels through the earth.

P and S waves are elastic seismic waves that moves within the earth. Love and Rayleigh waves are surface waves that travels through the surface.

  • P waves is also known as primary waves
  • S waves are known secondary waves.

These waves are the first set of waves to arrive a seismic station before the surface waves are picked up.

The force required to drag several objects across a floor was measured. Calculate the µK for these objects.
olganol [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

Case-A

Block weight W=150\ lb

Friction Force f=30\ lb

and friction force is

f=\mu _kN

where N=normal reaction (Usually equals to weight)

\mu _k=\frac{30}{150}

\mu _K=\frac{1}{5}=0.2

Case-B

Block weight W=20\ N

Friction Force f=5\ N

\mu _k=\frac{f}{N}

\mu _k=\frac{5}{20}=\frac{1}{4}

\mu _k=0.25

Case-C

Block weight W=1500\ lb

Friction Force f=60\ lb

\mu _k=\frac{f}{N}

\mu _k=\frac{60}{1500}

\mu _k=0.04

A sealed pressure cooker allows steam to escape only through an opening in the lid. a separate metal object, called a petcock, s
daser333 [38]

The mass of the petcock of the pressure cooker is  0.257 kg.

The total pressure inside the cooker is= atmospheric pressure+Gauge pressure

=100 kPa+101 kPa=201*10^3 Pa

The area of the petcock is= (π/4)d^2=0.785*0.004^2=12.56*10^(-6) m^2

Now the mass of the petcock is calculated as

P=(F/A)=(mg/A)

201*10^3=(m*9.81/(12.56*10^(-6)

m=0.257 kg

Therefore the mass of the petcock is 0.257 kg
