Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

Force is a vector quantity so it has both magnitude and direction. The question shows 20N act as magnitude and Southeast act as direction.

Why is the density of iron higher than the density of oxygen?

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Density of iron is higher than the density of oxygen because iron is solid and the particles in it are very compact but oxygen is not dense as it is gas and particles in it are loosely packed.

Two identical copper blocks are connected by a weightless, unstretchable cord through a frictionless pulley at the top of a thin

likoan [24]

Answer:

13.6 N

Explanation:

Since one side of the wedge is vertical and the wedge makes and angle of 33 with the horizontal, the angle between the weight of the copper block on the incline and the incline is thus 90 - 33 = 57.

Let M be the mass of the block that hangs, m be the mass of the block on the incline and T be the tension in the weightless unstretchable cord.

We assume the motion is downwards in the direction of the hanging block, M.

We now write equations of motion for each block.

Mg - T = Ma (1) and T - mgcos57 - F = ma where F is the frictional force on the block on the incline and a is their acceleration.

Now, since both blocks do not move, a = 0.

So, Mg - T = M(0) = 0 and T - mgcos57 - F = m(0) = 0

Mg - T = 0 (3) and T - mgcos57 - F = 0 (4)

From (3), T = Mg

Substituting T into (4), we have

T - mgcos57 - F = 0

Mg - mgcos57 - F = 0

So, Mg - mgcos57 = F

F = Mg - mgcos57

F = (M - mcos57)g

Since g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², and M = 2.94 kg and m = 2.85 kg.

We find F, thus

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kgcos57)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 2.85 kg × 0.5446)9.8 m/s²

F = (2.94 kg - 1.552 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = (1.388 kg)9.8 m/s²

F = 13.6024 kgm/s²

F ≅ 13.6 N

A woman throws a javelin 35 mph at an angle 30 degrees from the ground. Neglecting wind resistance or the height the javelin thr

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

35 mph

Explanation:

The key of this problem lies in understanding the way that projectile motion works as we are told to neglect the height of the javelin thrower and wind resistance.

When the javelin is thown, its velocity will have two components: a x component and a y component. The only acceleration that will interact with the javelin after it was thown will be the gravety, which has a -y direction. This means that the x component of the velocity will remain constant, and only the y component will be affected, and can be described with the constant acceleration motion properties.

When an object that moves in constant acceleration motion, the time neccesary for it to desaccelerate from a velocity v to 0, will be the same to accelerate the object from 0 to v. And the distance that the object will travel in both desaceleration and acceleration will be exactly the same.

So, when the javelin its thrown, it willgo up until its velocity in the y component reaches 0. Then it will go down, and it will reach reach the ground in the same amount of time it took to go up and, therefore, with the same velocity.

Suppose that Hubble's constant were H0 = 51 km/s/Mly (which is not its actual value). What would the approximate age of the univ

bija089 [108]

Given the Hubble's constant, the approximate age of the universe is 5.88 × 10⁹ Years.

Given the data in the question;

Hubble's constant; $H_0 = 51km/s/Mly$

Age of the universe; $t = \ ?$

We know that, the reciprocal of the Hubble's constant ( $H_0$ ) gives an estimate of the age of the universe ( $t$ ). It is expressed as:

$Age\ of\ Universe; t = \frac{1}{H_0}$

Now,

Hubble's constant; $H_0 = 51km/s/Mly$

We know that;

$1\ light\ years = 9.46*10^{15}m$

$1\ Million\ light\ years = [9.46 * 10^{15}m] * 10^6 = 9.46 * 10^{21}m$

Therefore;

$H_0 = 51\frac{km}{\frac{s}{Mly} } = 51000\frac{m}{s\ *\ Mly} \\\\H_0 = 51000\frac{m}{s\ *\ (9.46*10^{21}m)} \\\\H_0 = 5.39 *10^{-18}s^{-1}\\$

Now, we input this Hubble's constant value into our equation;

$Age\ of\ Universe; t = \frac{1}{H_0}\\\\t = \frac{1}{ 5.39 *10^{-18}s^{-1}} \\\\t = 1.855 * 10^{17}s\\\\We\ convert\ to\ years\\\\t = \frac{ 1.855 * 10^{17}}{60*60*24*365}yrs \\\\t = \frac{ 1.855 * 10^{17}}{31536000}yrs\\\\t = 5.88 *10^9 years$

Therefore, given the Hubble's constant, the approximate age of the universe is 5.88 × 10⁹ Years.
