Answer:

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

Explanation:

To answer this question, let's write Newton's second law of the two axes

Y Axis  

        Fy + N - W = 0

        Fy + N = W

X axis

       Fx - fr = 0

      Fx = fr

The force F is created by the reaction of the Earth to the thrust of the rods, whereby the thrust is created by a force of action and reaction.

   The direction of this force is along the length of the rods that are in an Angle, where the x and y components of the force come from

In general this force is small because the rubbing of the skis is small

DochEvi [55]
In Rutherford's gold foil experiment, some of the positive particles would pass through the foil and some would bounce off. This led to a new theory that all of the positive subatomic particles were in the center of the atom instead of evenly spread throughout.

A forklift raises a crate weighing 8.35 × 102 newtons to a height of 6.0 meters. What amount of work does the forklift do?
Vinil7 [7]
Answer:

<span>5010J</span>

Explanation:

Work is force times distance, or

<span>W=F⋅d</span>.

Substitute in values from the question to get

<span>W=8.35⋅<span>102</span>N⋅6m=50.1⋅<span>102</span>Nm=5010<span>J</span></span>

A butterfly flies from the top of a tree in the center of a garden to rest on top of a red flower at the garden's edge. The tree
Zielflug [23.3K]

The butterfly takes a vertical perpendicular path equivalent to 9m and travels a horizontal distance of 17m. The net path between the two is equivalent to that of the hypotenuse, so we will apply the Pythagorean theorem.

x=\sqrt{(9)^2+(0.17)^2}

x = 9.0061 \approx 9.0 m

Therefore the magnitude of the butterfly's displacement is 9m
