Answer:

16.7

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage is the ratio of the output force to the input force.

MA = Fout / Fin

MA = 2000 N / 120 N

MA ≈ 16.7

What is the best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in thomson's beams
hoa [83]

The best use of an atomic model to explain the charge of the particles in Thomson's beams is:

<u>An atom's smaller negative particles are at a distance from the central positive particles, so the negative particles are easier to remove.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In Thomson's model, an atom comprises of electrons that are surrounded by a group of positive particles to equal the electron's negative particles, like negatively charged “plums” that are surrounded by positively charged “pudding”.

Atoms are composed of a nucleus that consists of protons and neutrons . Electron was discovered by Sir J.J.Thomson. Atoms are neutral overall, therefore in Thomson’s ‘plum pudding model’:

  • atoms are spheres of positive charge
  • electrons are dotted around inside

Thomson's conclusions made him to propose the Rutherford model of the atom where the atom had a concentrated nucleus of positive charge and also large mass.

A chair of weight 100 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F = 4
otez555 [7]

Answer:

The normal force will be "122.8 N".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Weight,

W = 100 N

Force,

F = 40 N

Angle,

θ = 35.0°

As we know,

⇒  N=W+FSin \theta

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      = 100N+40N \ Sin \theta

⇒      =100N+22.8

⇒      =122.8 \ N

How is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave related to energy
aivan3 [116]

Answer: The energy carried by an electromagnetic wave is proportional to the frequency of the wave.  

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves that are of higher energy than visible light (higher frequency, shorter wavelength) include ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays.

If the archerfish spits its water 60. degrees from the horizontal aiming at an insect 2.0 m above the surface of the water, how
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
<span>Using the kinematic equations below, we can calculate the initial velocity required. Angle of projectile = 60 degrees Acceleration due to gravity (Ay) = -10 m/s^2 (negative because downward) Height of projectile (Dy) = 2m Vfy^2=Voy^2 +2*Ay*Dy Vfy = 0 m/s because the vertical velocity slows to zero at the height of its trajection. So... 0 = Voy^2 + 2(-10)(2) 0 = Voy^2 - 40 40 = Voy^2 Sqrt40 = Voy 6.32 m/s = Voy THIS IS NOT THE ANSWER. THIS IS JUST THE INITIAL VELOCITY IN THE Y DIRECTION. Using trigonometry, Tan 60 = Voy/Vox. Tan 60 = 6.32/Vox. Vox*Tan 60 = Vox Vox = 10.95 m/s. Now, using Vox = 10.95 and Voy = 6.32, we can use pythagorean theorem to find the total Vo. A^2 +B^2 = C^2 10.95^2 + 6.32^2 = C^2 Solving for C = 12.64 m/s This is the velocity required to hit the surface. You can also calculate a bunch of other stuff now using the other kinematic equations. V = 12.64 m/s</span>
