Answer:

T = 190 N

Explanation:

When child is sitting on the swing then the weight of the child is vertically downwards

So it is

F_g = 160 N

now a force of 100 N is acting on the swing in horizontal direction

so it is given as

F_x = 100 N

now the net force is resultant force due to gravity and horizontal force

so it is given as

T = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_g^2}

T = \sqrt{100^2 + 160^2}

T = 190 N

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km. What is his displacement from the
Readme [11.4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

A person walks 9.0 km directly east and then turns left and heads directly north for 12.0 km.

We need to find his displacement from the starting position.

We know that,

Displacement = shortest path covered

D=\sqrt{9^2+12^2} \\\\D=15\ km

For direction,

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{d_y}{d_x})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{12}{9})\\\\= $$53.13^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.

Several light bulbs, each of resistance 1.5 Ω, are connected in a series across a 120 V source of emf. If the current through th
Leni [432]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

40 light bulbs

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

The total resistance of components or bulbs in series is given as the sum of resistance of all the components.

Thus; if there are bulbs in series each with a resistance of 1.5 Ω, the the total resistance will be; 1.5nΩ

From the ohms law;

V = IR , where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistor.

Thus; R = V/i

         R = 120/2

            = 60 Ω

But, there are n bulbs each with 1.5 Ω; thus there are;

n = 60/1.5

<u>  = 40 Bulbs </u>

The change in momentum experienced by a object is equivalent to the...
Papessa [141]

Answer: C (impulse acting on the object)

The momentum is defined as it is the impulse acting on the force . Change in momentum is known as Impulse. Impulse is used to increase or decrease the momentum of object.                                    

From Newtons II law

              F = m. a

                = m. v/t               <em>since a = rate of change of velocity.</em>

<em>              </em>F . t = m . v

F . t is known as impulse momentum

Please help homework due tomorrow,,,
Ad libitum [116K]
Cody ...

Everything on this page is solved with the SAME formula !

             Distance = (speed) x (time) .


Before I get into how to solve each problem, we need to notice that
this whole sheet deals with speed, NOT velocity.

'Velocity' is speed AND THE DIRECTION OF THE  MOTION.
Nothing on this page ever mentions direction, so there's no velocity
anywhere on the page.

Your teacher may not be happy if you talk about this on your homework,
but that's too bad.  Just don't say "velocity" in any of your answers.
Say "speed", and if the teacher complains about that, then it's time to
let the teacher have it with both barrels.
 

1).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

2).  Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

3).  Distance  =  (average speed of travel) x (time traveling at that speed)

4).  Time to cover the distance = (distance) / (speed)

5).  Car's     speed = (distance the car covered)        / (time the car took)
      Sprinter speed = (distance the sprinter covered) / (time the sprinter took)

      Calculate the car's speed.
      Calculate the sprinter's speed.
     
      ... Look at the two speeds.
          Decide which one is faster.
     
      ... Subtract the slower one from the faster one. 
          The difference is the answer to "by how much?" .

6).  Distance  =  (speed) x (time spent moving at that speed)

7).  Average speed  =  (TOTAL distance covered)
                                      divided by
                                    (time to cover the TOTAL distance).
