I believe its B , (the direction the north end of a compass needle points, corresponding to the direction of the Earth's magnetic field lines)

Jenny was applying her makeup when she drove into the student parking lot last Friday morning . Unaware that Cheryl was stopped

Akimi4 [234]

Answer: F = 102141N

Explanation: Newton's 2nd Law states that a force can change the motion of a body. The relation is given by

F = m.a

whose units are:

[F] = N

[m] = kg

[a] = m/s²

Jenny's car, at the moment of the break, had acceleration:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

$a=\frac{11}{0.14}$

a = 78.57 m/s²

Then, Force is

F = 1300*78.57

F = 102141 N

Jenny's car experienced a force of magnitude 102141N.

One end of a 34-m unstretchable rope is tied to a tree; the other end is tied to a car stuck in the mud. The motorist pulls side

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Fc = 89.67N

Explanation:

Since the rope is unstretchable, the total length will always be 34m.

From the attached diagram, you can see that we can calculate the new separation distance from the tree and the stucked car H as follows:

L1+L2=34m

$L1^2=L2^2=L^2=2^2+(H/2)^2$ Replacing this value in the previous equation:

$\sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}+ \sqrt{2^2+H^2/4}=34$ Solving for H:

$H=\sqrt{52}$

We can now, calculate the angle between L1 and the 2m segment:

$\alpha = atan(\frac{H/2}{2})=60.98°$

If we make a sum of forces in the midpoint of the rope we get:

$-2*T*cos(\alpha ) + F = 0$ where T is the tension on the rope and F is the exerted force of 87N.

Solving for T, we get the tension on the rope which is equal to the force exerted on the car:

$T=Fc=\frac{F}{2*cos(\alpha) } = 89.67N$

What is dark energy?

olga2289 [7]

Explanation:

Dark Energy. Dark Energy is a hypothetical form of energy that exerts a negative, repulsive pressure, behaving like the opposite of gravity. It has been hypothesised to account for the observational properties of distant type Ia supernovae, which show the universe going through an accelerated period of expansion

A 9V battery produces a 1.5A current in a piece of wire. What is the resistance of the wire?

MAVERICK [17]

Explanation:

Using Ohm's Law and a bit of substitution, we can use voltage divided by current to solve for resistance. Doing that, we'll get 6 Ohm.

Which of the following best describes an action-reaction pair? A. The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon. B.

Papessa [141]

An action-reaction pair would be a pair in which one of the elements exerts a force on the other element (action), and then the other element would respond to this force by exerting another force in the opposite direction (reaction).

From the given choices, we will see that:
For choice A, the moon exerts a force on the earth by pulling it (action) and the earth responds to this force by pulling the moon (reaction in opposite direction of the action).

Therefore, the correct choice would be:
A. The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon.
