A mountain climber, in the process of crossing between two cliffs by a rope, pauses to rest. She weighs 555 N. As the drawing sh

ows, she is closer to the left cliff than to the right cliff, with the result that the tensions in the left and right sides of the rope are not the same. Find the tension in the rope to the left of the mountain climber.

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The tension in the rope on the left of the mountain climber is T_a = 1106 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the mountain climber is m = 555 N

Generally from the diagram , the total amount of force acting on the rope along the vertical axis at equilibrium is mathematically represented as  

       T_a*  cos 65 -555 + T_b * cos(85) =  0

Here  T_a, T_b are the tension of the rope on the left and on the right hand side

 So

    0.423T_a   + 0.0871T_b  =  555

=>   0.0871T_b  =  555 - 0.423T_a

=>   T_b  =  \frac{555 - 0.423T_a}{0.0871}

Generally from the diagram , the total amount of force acting on the rope along the horizontal  axis at equilibrium is mathematically represented as

      T_a*  sin 65 - T_b * sin(85) =  0

=>     0.9063T_a - 0.9962T_b =  0

=>     0.9063T_a =   0.9962T_b

=>     0.9063T_a =   0.9962[\frac{555 - 0.423T_a}{0.0871}]

=>     0.9063T_a =   [\frac{552.891 - 0.421T_a}{0.0871}]

=>    0.0789T_a =   [552.891 - 0.421T_a

=>    0.4999T_a =   552.891

=>      T_a = 1106 \ N

Evgen [1.6K]

Complete Question

A flat loop of wire consisting of a single turn of cross-sectional area 8.00 cm2 is perpendicular to a magnetic field that increases uniformly in magnitude from 0.500 T to 1.60 T in 0.99 s. What is the resulting induced current if the loop has a resistance of 1.20  \ \Omega

Answer:

The current is   I =  0.0007 41 \ A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  area is  A = 8.00 \ cm^2  = 8.0 *10^{-4} \  m^2

   The initial magnetic field at t_o = 0 \ seconds  is B_i = 0.500 \ T

   The magnetic field at t_1 = 0.99 \ seconds is  B_f  = 1.60 \ T

     The resistance is  R = 1.20  \ \Omega

Generally the induced emf is mathematically represented as

      \epsilon  =  A * \frac{B_f - B_i }{ t_f - t_o }

=>   \epsilon  =  8.0 *10^{-4} * \frac{1.60  - 0.500 }{ 0.99- 0  }

=>   \epsilon  = 0.000889 \ V

Generally the current induced is mathematically represented as

     I = \frac{\epsilon}{R }

=>  I = \frac{0.000889}{ 1.20 }  

=>  I =  0.0007 41 \ A

Explain how atomic interactions determine a material to be transparent and opaque?
motikmotik

Answer:

Explanation below.

Explanation:

It should be understood that transparency is caused through or by the transmission of light waves. This means that, If or when the energy known as the vibrational energy of a light wave is passed through the object, then the object appears clear, or transparent. And when or If the energy only causes vibrations in the surface before reflecting off the object, then the object will appear opaque, that is nontransparent.
