A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "42.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

(a) 42 N

(b)36.7 N

Explanation:

Nomenclature

F= force test line (N)

W : fish weight  (N)

Problem development

(a) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in at constant speed

We apply Newton's first law of equlibrio because the system moves at constant speed:

∑Fy =0

F-W= 0

42N -W =0  

W = 42N

(b) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s²

We apply Newton's second law because the system moves at constant acceleration:

 m= W/g , m= W/9.8 ,  m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

∑Fy =m*a

m= W/g , m= W/9.8 ,  m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

F-W= ( W/9.8 )*a

42-W=  ( W/9.8 )*1.41

42= W+0.1439W

42=1.1439W

W= 42/1.1439

W= 36.7  N

When a current flows through a metal wire, the moving charges are When a current flows through a metal wire, the moving charges
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Only electrons

Explanation:

When a current flows through a metal wire, the moving charges are electrons since electric current is the flow of electric charge in an electric circuit. This electric charge are therefore electrons.

On the way to school, Jed traveled 100m north, 300m east, 100 north, 100m east, and 100m north. A.) Find the total distance trav
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Total distance = 700 m

Displacement = 500 m

Explanation:

Notice that Jed travelled a total of 3 x 100 m = 300 m in the North direction, and 300 m + 100 m = 400 m in the East direction. Therefore the total distance he travelled is:  300 + 400 = 700 m.

But the actual displacement is given by the Pythagorean theorem as the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle of legs 300 m and 400 m:

displacement = \sqrt{300^2+400^2} =\sqrt{250000} =500\,m

what is the wavelength of radio waves transmitted by an FM station at 90MHz where 1M=10^6, and speed of radiowave is 3*10^8m/s
Igoryamba

Answer:

λ = 3.33 m

Explanation:

<u><em>Given:</em></u>

Frequency = f = 9 × 10⁷ Hz

Speed = v = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

<u><em>Required:</em></u>

Wavelength = λ = ?

<u><em>Formula:</em></u>

v = fλ

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

<em>Putting the givens in the formula</em>

v = fλ

λ = \frac{v}{f}

λ = \frac{3*10^8}{9*10^7}

λ = 0.33 × 10¹

λ = 3.33 m
