The 8.1 N weight is in equilibrium under the influence of the three forces acting on it. The F force acts from above on the left

at an angle of with the horizontal. The 6.4 N force acts from above on the right at an angle of 46? with the horizontal. The force 8.1 N acts straight down What is the magnitude of the force F? Answer in units of N. *******NOTE******** I have already gotten this part, which is 5.66N, but I am having difficulties of answering the second portion of this problem, which is: What is the angle of the force F as shown in the figure? Answer in units of

Answer:

F=16.512\ N

\theta=74.38^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given:

Observe the schematic showing the angle direction and magnitude of the forces acting on the center of the mass.

Here we find that there are 3 forces acting on a point and we can build a relation among the forces and the angle between them using Lami's Theorem.

\frac{8.1}{sin\ (134-\theta)} =\frac{F}{sin\ (136)} =\frac{6.4}{sin\ (90+\theta)}

Now, from the extreme left and extreme right term:

\frac{8.1}{sin\ (134-\theta)} =\frac{6.4}{sin\ (90+\theta)}

\frac{8.1}{6.4} \times cos\ \theta=0.72\times cos\ \theta+0.7\times sin\ \theta

\theta=74.12^{\circ}

Now, for calculating force F:

\frac{F}{sin\ (136)} =\frac{6.4}{sin\ (74.12+\theta)}

F=16.25\ N

How does gravity affect the motions of Earth and the Moon?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The Sun's gravitational pull keeps our planet orbiting the Sun. The motion of the Moon is affected by the gravity of the Sun and Earth. Moon's gravity pulls on the Earth and makes the tides rise and fall.

From a hot air balloon that is at rest at a certain height, a projectile is launched horizontally at 30m / s, how fast will it h
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A. 50 m/s

Explanation:

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (10 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 40 m/s

In the x direction, the velocity is constant at 30 m/s.

The overall speed is:

v² = (30 m/s)² + (40 m/s)²

v = 50 m/s
