Explanation:

The table is level and there are no other forces on the book, so the normal force is equal to the weight.

N = mg

N = (2.3 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

N = 22.5 N

Answer:

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 58.2

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be: 14.90 deg North of east

Explanation:

ASSUME Vector is R and makes angle A with +x-axis,

therefore component of vector R is

$R_x = Rcos A$

$R_y = Rsin A$

From above relation

Assuming base camp as the origin, location of 1st team is

$R_1 = 37 km$ away at 21 deg North of west (North of west is in 2nd quadrant, So x is -ve and y is positive)

$R_{1x} = -R_1*cos A_1 = -37*cos 21 deg = -34.54 km$

$R_{1y} = R_1*sin A_1 = 37*sin 21 deg = 13.25 km$

location of 2nd team is at

$R_2 = 32 km$ , at 38 deg East of North = 32 km, at 58 deg North of east (North of east is in 1st quadrant, So x and y both are +ve)

$R_{2x} = R_2*cos A_2 = 32*cos 58 deg = 16.95 km$

$R_{2y} = R_2*sin A_2 = 32*sin 58 deg = 27.13 km$

Now position of 2nd team with respect to 1st team will be given by:

$R_3 = R_2 - R_1$

$R_3 = (R_{2x} - R_{1x}) i + (R_{2y} - R_{1y}) j$

Using above values:

$R_3 = (16.95 - (-34.54)) i + (27.13 - 13.42) j$

$R_3 = 51.49 i + 13.71 j$

distance of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$\left | R_3 \right | = \sqrt (51.49^2 +13.71^2)$

$\left | R_3 \right | = 53.28 km = 58.2 km$

Direction of 2nd team from 1st team will be:

$Direction = tan^{-1} \frac{R_{3y}}{R_{3x}} = tan^{-1}[ \frac{13.71}{51.49}]$

Direction = 14.90 deg North of east

Use Hooke's Law to determine the work done by the variable force in the spring problem. Nine joules of work is required to stret

natima [27]

Answer:

29.16 J

Explanation:

From Hook's law,

W = 1/2(ke²)..................... Equation 1

Where W = work done, k = Spring constant, e = extension.

Given: W = 9 J, e = 0.5 m.

Substitute into equation 1

9 = 1/2(k×0.5²)

Solve for k

k = 18/0.5²

k = 72 N/m.

The work done required to stretch the spring by additional 0.4 m is

W = 1/2(72)(0.4+0.5)²

W = 36(0.9²)

W = 29.16 J.
