A monkey weighs 6.00 x 102 N and swings from vine to vine. As the monkey grabs a new vine, both vines make an angle of 35.0° wit
natka813 [3]

To solve this problem we will apply the considerations of equilibrium on a body, we will decompose the tensions into their respective components and apply the sum of forces and solving equations for the given system.

According to the graph, the sum of the horizontal components would be

\sum T_x = 0

TSin35\° -TSin35\° = 0

0 = 0

The sum of the vertical components is

\sum T_y = 0

2TCos35\° - mg = 0

2TCos35\° = 600N

T = \frac{600N}{2Cos35\°}

T = 366.2N

Therefore the net force on the new vine is 366.2N

Nuclear winter story. A crazy president is trying to solve the global warming problem and has successfully built a powerful H-bo
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

A nuclear winter is a climatic phenomenon that would follow the detonation of several atomic bombs in the event that a nuclear war broke out. These bombs would cause firestorms that would raise smoke, dust and particles into the atmosphere that would end up in the stratosphere and eventually spread throughout the globe.

Explanation:

That idea is far fetched, because even though those same particles would absorb sunlight, it would raise the temperature in the stratosphere and cause a decrease in temperature in the Earth's layer. Unable to seep the sun's rays, many plant species would die and this would affect the entire food chain.

In addition, that temperature rise in the stratosphere would destroy part of the ozone layer, causing greater exposure to ultraviolet rays. This would end up affecting health and further damaging plant species.

Why are the parts of an atom that electrons occupy called electron clouds?
Anna [14]

Because it's literally impossible to tell exactly where something that size is
located at any particular time.

And that's NOT because it's so small that we can't see it.  It's because any
material object behaves as if it's made of waves, and the smaller the object is,
the more the size of its waves get to be like the same size as the object. 
When you get down to things the size of subatomic particles, it doesn't make
sense any more to try and talk about where the particle actually "is", and we only
talk about the waves that define it, and how the waves all combine to become a
cloud of <em><u>probability</u></em> of where the particle is.

I know it sounds weird.  But that's the way it is.  Sorry.
