Answer:32.7

Explanation:

You must first make a right triangle with the two legs being 17 m west and 26.5 m north. To find the degree measurement west of north you must find the angle between the north leg and the hypotenuse. then just use inverse tangent of (17/26.5) which is 32 .7 degrees

Electric fields are vector quantities whose magnitudes are measured in units of volts/meter (V/m). Find the resultant electric f
musickatia [10]

Answer:

Er = 231.76 V/m, 27.23° to the left of E1

Explanation:

To find the resultant electric field, you can use the component method. Where you add the respective x-component and y-component of each vector:

E1:

E_1_x = 0V/m\\E_1_y=100V/m

E2:

Keep in mind that the x component of electric field E2 is directed to the left.

E_2_x= 150V/m*-sin(45) = 106.07 V/m\\E_2_y=150V/m*cos(45) = 106.07V/m

∑x: E_1_x+E_2_x = 0V/m - 106.07V/m = -106.07V/m

∑y: E_1_y + E_2_y = 100V/m + 106.07V/m = 206.07V/m

The magnitud of the resulting electric field can be found using pythagorean theorem. For the direction, we will use trigonometry.

||E_r||= \sqrt{(-106.07V/m)^2+(206.07V/m)^2} = 231.76 V/m\\\\\alpha = arctan(\frac{206.7 V/m}{-106.07 V/m}) = 117.24degrees

or 27.23° to the left of E1.

Answer:

B1. Pascal's law is a principal in fluid mechanics given by Blaise Pascal that states that a pressure change at any point in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid that the same change occur everywhere. 2 applications of Pascal's law are hydraulic lifts, hydraulic jacks, hydraulic hydraulic brakes ,hydraulic pumps. mark me as a braintalist list plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Consider two less-than-desirable options.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The force would be the same in both cases - option C.

Explanation:

The change in momentum is known as an impulse. In the two cases under consideration, the change in momentum is the same, thus impulse for both cases is the same.

Impulse is the average force multiplied by time interval.

I = F(average)*ΔT. Where F(average) is the average force and ΔT is the time interval.

The average force in both cases is the same since the collision time is the same.

Thus option C is the correct answer.

A gas is compressed at constant temperature from a volume of 5.68 L to a volume of 2.35 L by an external pressure of 732 torr. C
Vlada [557]

Answer: The work done in J is 324

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of work done for an isothermal process is given by the equation:

W=-P\Delta V=-P(V_2-V_1)

W = amount of work done = ?

P = pressure = 732 torr = 0.96 atm    (760torr =1atm)

V_1 = initial volume = 5.68 L

V_2 = final volume = 2.35  L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

W=-0.96atm\times (2.35-5.68)L=3.20L.atm

To convert this into joules, we use the conversion factor:

1L.atm=101.33J

So, 3.20L.atm=3.20\times 101.3=324J

The positive sign indicates the work is done on the system

Hence, the work done for the given process is 324 J
