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

A laser produces light at 5.32x10-7 m.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

speed = frequency x wavelength

speed of light in vacuum is 3.0 x 10^8

wavelength = 5.32 x10 ^-7

3.0 x 10 ^ 8 = 5.32 x 10^-7 x frequency

frequency = 5.63909 x 10^14

round it off = 5.64 x 10^14 Hz

thus the answer is D

hope this helps please mark it

An observer stands 24.7 m behind a marksman practicing at a rifle range. The marksman fires the rifle horizontally, the speed of
GaryK [48]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     Velocity of bullet, c_{p} = 814.8 m/s

    Observer distance from marksman, d = 24.7 m

Let us assume that time necessary for report of rifle to reach the observer is t and will be calculated as follows.

               t = \frac{24.7}{343}      (velocity in air = 343 m/s)

                 = 0.072 sec

Now, before the observer hears the report the distance traveled by the bullet is as follows.

               d_{b} = c_{b} \times t

                          = 814.8 \times 0.072

                          = 58.66

                          = 59 (approx)

Thus, we can conclude that each bullet will travel a distance of 59 m.

A block with mass m 2.00 kg is placed against a spring on a frictionless incline with angle 30 degrees (Fig. B-43). (The block i
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

The stored elastic energy of compressed spring

= 1 / 2 k X²

= .5 x 19.6 x (.20)²

= .392 J

b ) The stored potential energy will be converted into gravitational potential energy of the block earth system when the block will ascend along the incline . So change in the gravitational potential energy will be same as stored elastic potential energy of the spring that is .392 J .

c ) Let h be the distance along the incline which the block ascends.

vertical height attained ( H ) =h sin30

= .5 h

elastic potential energy = gravitational energy

.392 = mg H

.392 = 2 x 9.8 x .5 h

h = .04 m

4 cm .

A simple dipole consists of two charges with the same magnitude, q, but opposite sign separated by a distance d. The EDM (electr
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

a. dW = ∫pEsinθdθ  b. W = p.E

Explanation:

a. We know torque τ = p × E = pEsinθ where θ is the angle between p and E

Let the torque τ rotate the dipole by an amount dθ. So, the workdone dW = ∫τdθ = ∫pEsinθdθ

b. So, the total work done is gotten by integrating from 90 to θ. So,

W = ∫₉₀⁰dW

= ∫₉₀⁰pEsinθdθ

= pE∫₉₀⁰sinθdθ

= pE(cosθ - cos90)

=pEcosθ

= p.E

Lelechka [254]

The answer is food irradiation. This involves the brief exposure of food to gamma rays or X-rays to kill pathogens that may contribute to food spoilage. This increases the shelf-life of the food. Gamma rays and X-rays emanate from nuclear decay of radioactive materials such as uranium..
