Answer: FR=2.330kN

Explanation:

Write down x and y components.

Fx= FSin30°

Fy= FCos30°

Choose the forces acting up and right as positive.

∑(FR) =∑(Fx )

(FR) x= 5-Fsin30°= 5-0.5F

(FR) y= Fcos30°-4= 0.8660-F

Use Pythagoras theorem

F2R= √F2-11.93F+41

Differentiate both sides

2FRdFR/dF= 2F- 11.93

Set dFR/dF to 0

2F= 11.93

F= 5.964kN

Substitute value back into FR

FR= √F2(F square) - 11.93F + 41

FR=√(5.964)(5.964)-11.93(5.964)+41

FR= 2.330kN

The minimum force is 2.330kN

A dock worker loading crates on a ship finds that a 27 kg crate, initially at rest on a horizontal surface, requires a 80 N hori
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:0.302

Explanation:

Given

mass of crate m=27 kg

Force required to set crate in motion is 80 N

Once the crate is set  in motion 56 N is require to move it with constant velocity

i.e. 80 N is the amount of force needed to just overcome static friction and 56 is the kinetic friction force

thus  

f_s(static\ friction)=\mu \cdot N

where \muis the coefficient of static friction and N is Normal reaction

N=mg

f_s=\mu mg

\mu mg=80

\mu =\frac{80}{27\times 9.8}

\mu =0.302

Spiderman, whose mass is 74.0 kg, is dangling on the free end of a 11.0-m-long rope, the other end of which is fixed to a tree l
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

W = -1844.513 J

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

mass of spider man is m  74 kg

vertical displacement if spider is 11 m

final displacement  =  11 cos 60.6 =  - 6.753 m

change in displacement is  = -6.753 - (-11) = 4.25 m

gravity force act on spiderman is f = mg = 74 × 9.8 = 725.2 N

work done by gravity is W = F \delta r cos\theta

W = 725.2 \times 4.25 \times cos 180

where 180 is the angle between spiderman weight and displacement

W = -1844.513 J

Photovoltaic cells: a) have become more economical to produce and use over the past 25 years. b) are the most efficient means of
Yanka [14]

Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity. Option b is correct.

<h3>What is a cell?</h3>

A cell is a voltage and current-producing device that consists of a single anode and cathode separated by an electrolyte.

One or more cells can make up a battery. One cell, for example, is one AA battery.

Light intensity on a solar cell is often measured in "suns," with one sun roughly equivalent to 1 kW/m².

Concentrated sunlight improves the ratio of current generated while the device is lighted vs when it is dark, hence enhancing output voltage and efficiency.

Photovoltaic cells are the most efficient means of converting solar energy to electricity.

Hence, option b is correct.

To learn more about the cell refer to:
