Answer:

C. Both A and B

Explanation:

Fuses are rated by the amperage they can carry before heat melts the element. The fuse is ideal for protection against short circuits. Short circuits produce enough amperage to vaporize a fuse element and break connection in one cycle of a 60-cycle system.

Specifically, the voltage rating determines the ability of the fuse to suppress the internal arcing that occurs after a fuse link melts and an arc is produced.

6.  Since we are not sure if the person in the question is actively lifting the crate, we have to determine the downwards force of the crate due to gravity and compare it to the normal force.  

F = ma

F = (15.3)(-9.8)

F = -150N

Since the downwards force of the crate is equivalent to the normal force, it means the person is applying no force in picking up the object.  So to pick up a 150N object from scratch, you would have to exert more force than the weight of the object, so the answer is 294N.


7.  Same idea as question 2.  

First determine the weight of the object:

F = ma

F = (30)(-9.8)

F = -294N

The crate in question is not moving, so the magnitudes of the forces in the upwards and downwards direction has to equal to 0.

-294 + 150N + x = 0

x = 144N  

So the person is exerting 144 N.


10.  First find the force of block B to the right due to its acceleration:

F = ma

F = (24)(0.5)

F = 12N

So block B is moving 12N to the right relative to block A due to block A's movement to the left.  However, block A is being applied a much greater force and is moving quicker to the left than block B is moving to the right of bock A.  The force that is causing block B to experience the lower relative force to the right is because of the friction.  To find the friction:

The sum of the forces in the leftward and rightward direction for block B must equal 12N.

75 - x = 12

x = 63N

So the force of friction of block A on block B is 63N to the left.

What line of code will call force with a value of 10 for mass and a value of 9.81 for acceleration?
Kaylis [27]

Line of code will call force with a value of 10 for mass and a value of 9.81 for acceleration is force(10, 9.81).

<h3 /><h3>Line of code for force and acceleration</h3>
  • In mechanics, acceleration refers to the rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time varies.
  • Acceleration is a vector quantity (in that they have magnitude and direction).
  • The direction of an object's acceleration is determined by the direction of the net force acting on it.
  • Newton's Second Law states that the combined effect of two factors determines how much an item accelerates.
  • The size of the net balance of all external forces acting on the object is, in accordance with the materials used to create it.
  • It inversely proportional to its mass, whereas the magnitude of the net resultant force is directly proportional to the net force.

def force(mass, acceleration):

force_val = mass*acceleration

return force_val

10 is assigned to mass and 9.81 is assigned to acceleration

def force(10, 9.81)

So, Line of code will call force with a value of 10 for mass and a value of 9.81 for acceleration is force(10, 9.81).

A spotlight on a boat is y = 2.2 m above the water, and the light strikes the water at a point that is x = 8.5 m horizontally di
slava [35]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The distance d, which locates the point where the light strikes the bottom is   29.345 m from the spotlight.

Explanation:

To solve the question we note that Snell's law states that

The product of the incident index and the sine of the angle of incident is equal to the product of the refractive index and the sine of the angle of refraction

n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂

y = 2.2 m and strikes at x = 8.5 m, therefore tanθ₁ = 2.2/8.5 = 0.259 and

θ₁ =  14.511 °

n₁ = 1.0003 = refractive index of air

n₂ = 1.33 = refractive index of water

Therefore sinθ₂ =  \frac{n_1sin\theta_1}{n_2}  = \frac{1.003*0.251}{1.33} = 0.1885 and θ₂ = 10.86 °

Since the water depth is 4.0 m we have tanθ₂ = \frac{4}{x_2} or x₂ = \frac{4}{tan\theta_2 } =\frac{4}{tan(10.86)} = 20.845 m

d = x₂ + 8.5 = 20.845 m + 8.5 m = 29.345 m.
