Answer:

734.215N

Explanation:

First we calculate the angle that corresponds to a 5% slope using the Tan-1 function

\beta = tan-1(5%)=2.86

then we use the component that corresponds to the direction parallel to the road, additionally we must multiply by the gravity value to find the weight(g=9.81m/s^2)

Wx=M*g*sen(2.86)=1500kg*9.81*sen(2.86)=734.215N

Answer:

733.47 N

Explanation:

For 5% grade, the elevation of the road is

tanθ = 5/100

θ = tan⁻¹0.05 = 2.86°. Which is the angle of elevation of the road.

The component of the weight parallel to the road is thus mgsinθ = 1500 kg × 9.8 m/s²sin2.86° = 733.47 N

Naily [24]

Answer:

1.) A - 1,2,1,2

2.) Both forces can act without objects touching.

3.) C

Both can be modeled as waves having amplitude, frequency and wave lengths.

4.) A, B and C

Explanation:

1.) SO2 + ___ H2 ----------> _____ S + _______H2O

Looking at above equation, we have one molecule of surfur at the right hand side (RHS), and one molecule of surfur at the left hand side (LHS).

Two atoms of hydrogen and both RHS and LHS

But oxygen is not balanced. We have two atoms of oxygen at the RHS while having one at the LHS.

So let's make oxygen 2 atoms at LHS by adding 2 to water molecules and hydrogen molecules at the RHS.

SO2 + ___ 2H2 ----------> _____ S + _______2H2O

The correct answer is A - 1,2,1,2

2.) Both magnetic force and gravitational force obey inverse square law with distance. They are not directly proportional but inversely proportional to the square distance. B is the correct answer because Both forces can act without objects touching.

3.) Light waves are transverse waves which can travel through a vacuum without a medium while sound waves are longitudinal waves which cannot travel through vacuum without a medium. But both can be modeled as waves having amplitude, frequency and wave lengths.

4.) If an object is slowing down, due to conservation of energy,

The potential energy could be increasing, like a ball thrown into the air.

The kinetic energy could be lost to friction or air resistance.

The ball could be returning to its natural resting state.

Glare appears on a computer screen when light from the surroundings reflects off of the screen’s surface. Some computer screens
hoa [83]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

D:The surface of the coating allows light from the room to pass through but blocks the light from the screen.

Explanation:

Glare is produced on a computer screen when light from some external source reflects on the screen.

Anti-glare coating do not absorb light to reduce glare but they actually reduce glare by encouraging the light from the room to pass through the screen so that less light is reflected. Polarized lenses absorbs light to reduce glare, not anti-glare coating.
