Answer:

Horizontal force is 16.97 N.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the block, m = 2 kg

It is on an incline at a 60 degree angle is held in equilibrium by a horizontal force. We need to find the magnitude of horizontal force. The force acting on the block is its weight mg.

The horizontal component of force is, F_x=mg\ sin\theta

The vertical component of force is, F_y=mg\ cos\theta  

So, the horizontal component of force is,F_x=2\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\ sin(60)

F_x=16.97\ N

So, the horizontal component of force is 16.97 N.

PART ONE
stira [4]

Answer:

3.64×10⁸ m

3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

Explanation:

Let's define some variables:

M₁ = mass of the Earth

r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center

M₂ = mass of the moon

r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center

d = distance between the Earth and the moon

When the gravitational fields become equal:

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)

M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0

d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0

Solving with quadratic formula:

r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

When we plug in the values, we get:

r = 3.64×10⁸ m

If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:

g = GM / r²

g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²

g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

The rubber band contains .......potential energy as it is stretched.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

elastic potential energy

You input potential (stored) energy into the rubber band system when you stretched the rubber band back. Because it is an elastic system, this kind of potential energy is specifically called elastic potential energy.

Why does your heart not get tired of constantly beating throughout your body
Ipatiy [6.2K]

cardiac muscle is striated. Uniquely, the cells of this kind of muscle are joined strongly together at adherens junctions that “enable the heart to contract forcefully without ripping the fibers apart.”

A 0.500 kg rock is whirled in a vertical circle of a radius 0.60 m . the velocity of the rock at the bottom of the swing is 4.0
OLEGan [10]

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration is:

a = v² / r

a = (4.0 m/s)² / 0.60 m

a = 26.6 m/s²
