23. While sliding a couch across a floor, Andrea and Jennifer exert forces F → A and F → J on the couch. Andrea’s force is due n

orth with a magnitude of 130.0 N and Jennifer’s force is 32° east of north with a magnitude of 180.0 N. (a) Find the net force in component form. (b) Find the magnitude and direction of the net force. (c) If Andrea and Jennifer’s housemates, David and Stephanie, disagree with the move and want to prevent its relocation, with what combined force F → DS should they push so that the couch does not move?

Answer:

a) (95.4 i^ + 282.6 j^) N , b) 298.27 N 71.3º and c) F' = 298.27 N θ = 251.4º

Explanation:

a) Let's use trigonometry to break down Jennifer's strength

sin θ = Fjy / Fj

cos θ = Fjx / Fj

Analyze the angle is 32º east of the north measuring from the positive side of the x-axis would be

T = 90 -32 = 58º

Fjy = Fj sin 58

Fjx = FJ cos 58

Fjx = 180 cos 58 = 95.4 N

Fjy = 180 sin 58 = 152.6 N

Andrea's force is

Fa = 130.0 j ^

We perform the summary of force on each axis

X axis

Fx = Fjx

Fx = 95.4 N

Axis y

Fy = Fjy + Fa

Fy = 152.6 + 130

Fy = 282.6 N

F = (95.4 i ^ + 282.6 j ^) N

b) Let's use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry

F² = Fx² + Fy²

F = √ (95.4² + 282.6²)

F = √ (88963)

F = 298.27 N

tan θ = Fy / Fx

θ = tan-1 (282.6 / 95.4)

θ = tan-1 (2,962)

θ = 71.3º

c) To avoid the movement they must apply a force of equal magnitude, but opposite direction

F' = 298.27 N

θ' = 180 + 71.3

θ = 251.4º

State the 3 laws of motion

Georgia [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion:

An object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest, until acted upon by an unbalanced force.

Newton's second law:

The net force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.

Newton's third law:

For every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction.

A nova occurs when

C. hydrogen accreted onto a white dwarf from a close companion rapidly fuses to helium, releasing a large amount of energy.

The accreted material, composed mainly of hydrogen, is compacted on the surface of the white dwarf due to the intense gravitational force on that place. As material accumulates, The white dwarf becomes increasingly hot, until it reaches the critical temperature for ignition of nuclear fusion.

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that

Answer:

The permittivity of rubber is $\epsilon = 8.703 *10^{-11}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of the point charge is $q_1 = 70 \ nC = 70 *10^{-9} \ C$

The diameter of the rubber shell is $d = 32 \ cm = 0.32 \ m$

The Electric field inside the rubber shell is $E = 2500 \ N/ C$

The radius of the rubber is mathematically evaluated as

$r = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{0.32}{2} = 0.16 \ m$

Generally the electric field for a point is in an insulator(rubber) is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{Q}{ \epsilon } * \frac{1}{4 * \pi r^2}$

Where $\epsilon$ is the permittivity of rubber

=> $E * \epsilon * 4 * \pi * r^2 = Q$

=> $\epsilon = \frac{Q}{E * 4 * \pi * r^2}$

substituting values

$\epsilon = \frac{70 *10^{-9}}{2500 * 4 * 3.142 * (0.16)^2}$

$\epsilon = 8.703 *10^{-11}$

he Hobbits are building a watchtower so they can prepare to battle in case trolls decide to attack them. One Hobbit will always

joja [24]

Answer:

5m/8

Explanation:

Function T gives the time the Hobbits have to prepare for the attack, T(k), in minutes, as a function of troll's distance, k, in meters.

Function V gives visibility from the watchtower, V(m), in meters, as a function of the height of the watchtower, m, in meters.

Therefore, T(V(m)) will give the time the Hobbits have to prepare for the troll attack as a function of the height, m, of the watchtower.

We can input m into function V to obtain the visibility from watchtower, V(m), in meters. Since visibility indicates the distance you can see, this also gives the distance of the trolls. This can then be input into function T to obtain the time that the Hobbits have to prepare for a troll attack.

Let's find T(V(m)) by substituting the formula for V(m) into function T as shown below.

T(V(M))=T(50m)

=50m/80

We can simplify this as follows:

=50m/80

=5m/8
