We are given with a force in the middle of a rope measuring 10 m and an angle of sagging of 10 degrees from the horizontal. The tension of the rope is equal to the hypotenuse of the right triangle. 

sin 10 = 50 kg * 9.8 m/s2 / T
Tension = 2821. 80 N

Answer:

T = 1412.3 N

Explanation:

As we know that weight of the Arlene is counterbalanced by the tension in the string

So here it is given that string makes 10 degree angle at mid point

So we will have

T sin\theta + T sin\theta = mg

so we have

T = \frac{mg}{2sin\theta}

here we know that

m = 50 kg

\theta = 10 degree

now we have

T = \frac{50 \times 9.81}{2sin10}

T = 1412.3 N

If it requires 3.0 J of work to stretch a particular spring by 2.1 cm from its equilibrium length, how much more work will be re
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Work done = 13605.44

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

For elongation of 2.1 cm (0.021 m) work done by the spring is 3.0 J

The relation between Energy (U) and the elongation (s) is given as:

U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2   ................(1)

where,

k is the spring constant

on substituting the valeus in the above equation, we get

3.0 = \frac{1}{2}k\times0.021^2

or

k = 13605.44 N/m

now

for the elongation x = 2.1 + 4.1 = 6.2 cm = 0.062 m

using the equation 1, we have

U = \frac{1}{2}\times13605.44\times (0.062)^2

or

U = 26.149 J

Also,

Work done = change in energy

or

W = 26.149 - 3.0 = 23.149 J

Modify how could you charge the electric circuit shown below to allow lightbulb a to stay lit even if lightbulb b is removed fro
shepuryov [24]
When a circuit is complete, or closed, electrons can flow from one end of a battery all the way around, through the wires, to the other end of the battery. Along its way, it will carry electrons to electrical objects that are connected to it – like the light bulb – and make them work!

A shot is fired at an angle of 60 degree horizontal with Kinetic energy E. If air resistance is ignored, the K.E at the top of t
Lapatulllka [165]
I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith. 

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is    S cos(60)  =  0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is   S sin(60) = S√3/2  =  0.866 S .  (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change. 

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally. 

That's  E/4 .

In a uranium fission reaction, uranium splits into two smaller atoms and energy. Where did the energy come from?
postnew [5]

Answer: C. Some of uranium's mass is converted into energy, so the smaller atoms have less mass.

Explanation:

From Einstein's mass-energy relation:

E = mc²

Mass and energy are equivalent. Mass can be converted into energy and energy into mass.

When Uranium atoms under go nuclear fission, smaller atoms are formed and huge amount of energy is released. This energy comes from the mass difference of the uranium nuclei and new nuclei formed. This mass converted into energy according to Einstein's equation.
