A dog pulls on a pillow with a force of 5 N at an angle of 37o to the horizontal. Find the x and y components of this force.​

Answer:

x- component = Fx= 4N

y - component= Fy= 3N

Explanation:

Fx=Fcos∅= 5cos 37= 3.99≅4N

Fy=F sin∅= 5 Sin37= 3.009≅3.01N

the dog pulls the pillow at an angle 37 degrees to the horizontal means it pulls it at an angle 37 degrees with the x- axis.if  the line of the force represents the vector F then its horizonatal and vertical components wil be along x-axis and y-axis ie Fx and Fy.

as sin∅= Perpendicular/ Hypotenuse

but we have force F and Fy

so sin∅= Fy/F

or Fy= Fsin∅---------eqA

similarly cos∅= base /hpotenuse

cos∅= Fx/F

Fx= Fcos∅----------eq B

eq A  and eq B can be used to determine the values of the rectangular components of the force making an angle with the horizontal

Find the change in kinetic energy of a 0.650 kg fish leaping to the right at 15.0 m/s that collides inelastically with a 0.950 k
yaroslaw [1]
The change in the kinetic energy refers to the work done in displacing a body, thus, the change in the kinetic energy of an object refers to the work done on the object.
The correct formula to use is:
W = Initial kinetic energy - Final kinetic energy;
Where, W = change in kinetic energy
Final kinetic energy and initial kinetic energy = 1/2 MV^2
Initial velocity = 15 m/s
Final velocity  = 13.5 m/s
Initial mass = 0.650 kg
Final mass = 0.950 kg
W = 1/2 [0.650* (15 *15)] - 1/2 [0.950 * (13.5 * 13.5)]
W = 146.25 - 173.13 = 26.88
Therefore, the change in kinetic energy is 26.88 J.
 The negative sign has to be ignored, because change in kinetic energy can not be negative.

The Old Faithful geyser found in Yellowstone Park is an example of _____.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

cone geyser

Explanation:

The Old Faithful geyser is the oldest discovered geyser in the Yellowstone national park. The eruptions of the geyser are particularly predictable. It is a cone type geyser.

Cone geysers generally have a spout through which the water ejects out. When super heated water in the tube then the water starts to boil and form bubbles of steam, after this process the eruption takes place.

What is horoscope? what is its uses
Lemur [1.5K]
What is horoscope?
A forecast of a person's future, typically including delineation of character and circumstances, based on the relative positions of the stars and planets at the time of that person's birth.

   *
A short forecast for people born under a particular sign, especially as published in a newspaper or magazine.
 
    *
A birth chart.
 

What is its uses?
It can also be calculated for an event, a question, and even a country. Symbols are used to represent planets, signs, and geometric connections called aspects. In most cases, the horoscope in Western astrology is drawn on a circular wheel.

A family car has a mass of 1400 kg. In an accident it hits a wall and goes from a speed of 27 m/s to a standstill in 1.5 seconds
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

The force has been reduced by 8018 N

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on the car during the crash is equal to the product of the force exerted and the duration of the collision, and it is also equal to the change in momentum of the car. So we can write:

F\Delta t = m\Delta v

where:

F is the force exerted on the car

\Delta t is the duration of the collision

m = 1400 kg is the mass of the car

\Delta  v=-27 m/s is the change in velocity of the car

We can re-write the equation as

F=\frac{m\Delta v}{\Delta t}

In the 1st collision, the time is 1.5 seconds, so the force is

F_1=\frac{(1400)(-27)}{1.5}=-25,200 N

In the 2nd collision, the time is increased to 2.2 seconds, so the force is

F_2=\frac{(1400)(-27)}{2.2}=-17,182 N

Therefore, the force has been reduced by:

F_2-F_1=-17,182-(-25,200)=8018 N
