If the 30 N on the rope were pulled straight up, it would offset the force of gravity ( m g = 10 kg * 9.8 N/kg = 98 N) , leaving a net force up from the ground on the sled of 98-30 = 68 N. Since the rope is pulled at the angle of 25o, only part of the force is in the upward direction, (30N)(sin(25) = (30)(.423) = 12.7. So the net force becomes 98 N down offset by 12.7 up or 98-12.7 = 85.3 N. Ah, there it is: C.

Answer: The normal force acting on the sled 131.4048 Newtons.

Explanation:

On breaking up force of 70 N into vertical and horizontal components:

Vertical components:f\cos\theta

Horizontal components:f\sin\theta

The normal force is force acting perpendicular on an object.It is a balanced force.

mg=N+f\sin\theta

N=mg-f\sin\theta=18 kg\times 9.8 m/s^2-70 N\times 0.6427=131.4048 N

The normal force acting on the sled 131.4048 Newtons.

Which of ONE of the following four elements has the most metallic properties?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

12 (Magnesium- Mg)

Explanation:

Looking at the four numbers, we have:

Magnesium, Silicon, Sulfur, and Chlorine.

We can eliminate two of the answers immediately just by looking at the periodic table.

Sulfur and Chlorine are on the nonmetal side of the periodic table. So that's <em>definitely</em> not it. That leaves Magnesium and Silicon.

Silicon is a Metalloid. Magnesium is an Alkaline earth Metal.

Metaloids are elements that have a mix of both<em> metal</em> and<em> nonmetal </em>properties (luster, how it feels, etc.). Since it's a MIX and Magnesium is just straight METAL-

We can say Magnesium has the most metallic properties.

hope this helps!!

Singly charged uranium-238 ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 2.90 kV and enter a uniform magnetic field of
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: 0.091 m

Explanation:

r = 1/B * √(2mV/e), where

r = radius of their circular path

B = magnitude of magnetic field = 1.29 T

m = mass of Uranium -238 ion = 238 * amu = 238 * 1.6*10^-27 kg

V = potential difference = 2.9 kV

e = charge of the Uranium -238 ion = 1.6*10^-19 C

r = 1/1.29 * √[(2 * 238 * 1.6*10^-27 * 2900) / 1.6*10^-19]

r = 1/1.29 * √(2.21*10^-21 / 1.6*10^-19)

r = 1/1.29 * √0.0138

r = 1/1.29 * 0.117

r = 0.091 m

Therefore, the radius of their circular path is 0.091 m

The acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring, was written by this woman in 1962.
olga_2 [115]
Rachel Carson was the author of the acclaimed environmental book, Silent Spring. The book was published in 1962.
It documented the negative effect that synthetic pesticides have on the environment, specifically on birds.
This book laid bare to the American public what chemical companies indirectly contributed to the environment. 
The public furor this book caused led to the reversal of the national pesticide policy, a nationwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses, and inspired the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
