While a roofer is working on a roof that slants at 39.0 degrees above the horizontal, he accidentally nudges his 88.0 N toolbox,

causing it to start sliding downward, starting from rest.
If it starts 4.90 m from the lower edge of the roof, how fast will the toolbox be moving just as it reaches the edge of the roof if the kinetic friction force on it is 18.0 N ?

Answer:

V= 6.974 m/s

Explanation:

Component( box) weight acting parallel and down roof 88(sin39.0°)=55.4 N

Force of kinetic friction acting parallel and up roof = 18.0 N

Fnet force acting on tool box acting parallel and down roof

Fnet= 55.4 - 18.0

Fnet=37.4 N

acceleration of tool box down roof

a = 37.4(9.81)/88.0

a= 4.169 m/s²

d = 4.90 m

t = √2d/a

t= √2(4.90)/4.169

t= 1.662 s

V = at

V= 4.169(1.662)

V= 6.974 m/s

Determine the index of refraction of glass that is struck by unpolarized light at 53.8 degrees and resulting in a fully polarize
nignag [31]

Answer:

The refractive index of glass, \mu_{g} = 1.367

Solution:

Brewster angle is the special case of incident angle that causes the reflected and refracted rays to be perpendicular to each other or that angle of incident which causes the complete polarization of the reflected ray.

To determine the refractive index of glass:

tan\theta_{P} = \frac{\mu_{g}}{\mu_{a}}                 (1)

where

\mu_{a} = refractive index of glass

\mu_{g} = refractive index of glass

Now, using eqn (1)

tan{53.8^{\circ}} = \frac{\mu_{g}}{1}

\mu_{g} = tan53.8^{\circ}

\mu_{g} = 1.367

PLEASE HELP!!!
Harman [31]

The wind direction changed from morning to night because  land and water absorbing solar energy unequally.

<h3>Convection current</h3>

Convection is said to occur when there is heat transfer by an actual movement of participles from place to place. The movement of air mass (wind) is affected by the relative amounts of solar energy absorbed by the land and sea.

Hence, the wind direction changed from morning to night because  land and water absorbing solar energy unequally.

Compared to a plane gravitational pull on the ground to 7 miles in sky is what
Citrus2011 [14]
When you're in an airplane that's 7 miles up off the ground, the strength of gravity plunges to only 99.6 percent of its strength all the way down on the ground. A big heavy person, who weighs 200 pounds down at the airport, weighs only 199 pounds 4.7 ounces in a plane at the altitude of 7 miles.

How will a current change if the resistance of a circuit remains constant while the voltage across the circuit decreases to half
beks73 [17]

Answer:

1. The current will drop to half of its original value.

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using Ohm's law:

V=RI

where

V is the voltage across the circuit

R is the resistance of the circuit

I is the current

We can rewrite it as

I=\frac{V}{R}

In this problem, we have:

- the resistance of the circuit remains the same: R' = R

- the voltage is decreased to half of its original value: V'=\frac{V}{2}

So, the new current will be

I'=\frac{V'}{R'}=\frac{V/2}{R}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{V}{R}=\frac{I}{2}

so, the current will drop to half of its original value.
