Answer:

The tension on the string is  T  =  43.302 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the rock is m_r = 5.00 \ kg =  5000 \ g

       The density of the rock is \rho  =  4300 \ kg/m^3 =  4.3 g/dm^3

       

Generally the volume of the rock is mathematically evaluated as

          V    =  \frac{m_r}{\rho}

substituting values

        V    =  \frac{5000}{4.3}

       V    =  1162.7 \  dm^3

The volume of the rock immersed in water is

      V_w = \frac{V}{2}  

substituting values

     V_w = \frac{1162.7 }{2}

     V_w = 581.4 \ dm^3

mass of water been displaced by the this volume is

     m_w  = V_w     According to Archimedes principle

=>   m_w =  581.4 \ g

     m_w =  0.5814 \ kg

The weight of the water displace is  

      W _w =  m_w  * g

      W _w =  0.5814  * 9.8

      W _w = 5.698 \ N

The actual weight of the rock is  

      W_r  =  m_r * g

     W_r  =  5.0 *  9.8

     W_r  =  49.0 \ N

The tension on the string is

       T  = W_r - W_w

substituting values

       T  = 49.0 -  5.698

       T  =  43.302 \ N

vector u has a magnitude of 20 and direction of 0°.vector v has amagnitude of 40and a direction of 60°.find the magnitude and di
pantera1 [17]

Addition of vectors:

vector u

has a magnitude of 20 and a direction of 0º with respect to the horizontal, vector v has a magnitude of 40 and a direction of 60º with respect to the horizontal.

a) Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant to the nearest whole

number.

Vector Sum:

The resultant of two vectors is simply the vector sum of the vectors. There are a handful of ways to present the resultant factor; the notation that shows the vector magnitude and direction is called the polar vector notation. An example of a vector presented in polar vector notation is

a∠θ where a is the magnitude and θis the angle that the vector makes with the horizontal axis.

Answer and Explanation:

Let's first present the vectors in rectangular vector notation.

For the vector →u of magnitude 20 and direction 0∘ to the horizontal axis, the vector is →u=^i20.

For the vector →v

of magnitude 40 and direction 60∘ to the horizontal axis, the vector is →v=^i40cos60∘+^j40sin60∘.

The resultant vector →w is the vector sum of the vectors, i.e.

→w=→u+→v

=^i20+^i40cos60∘+^j40sin60∘

=^i(20+40cos60∘)+^j(40sin60∘)

=^i40+^j20√3

For a vector ^ix+^jy, the magnitude of the vector is √x2+y2 and the direction above the horizontal axis is θ=tan−1(yx).

Let's use the formulas:

|→w|∠θ=√(40)2+(20√3)2∠tan−1(20√340)≈52.9∠40.9∘

The magnitude of the vector is about 53 units in the direction 41-degrees above the horizontal axis.

Which component of a loudspeaker produces sound waves? a solenoid coil a thin membrane a permanent magnet
zimovet [89]

Answer: A thin membrane.

Explanation:

When a sound signal is allowed to pass through the voice coil suspended between permanent magnet, magnetic field will be induced which will cause vibration in the diaphragm - a thin membrane causing disturbance of air in the surrounding of membranes which eventually produce sound waves.

Therefore, we can conclude that a thin membrane of the loud speaker produces sound waves
