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

A submarine periscope uses two totally reflecting 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection on the sides adjacent to the 45
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer

Given,

Periscope uses 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection adjacent to 45°.

refractive index of water, n_a = 1.33

refractive index of glass, n_g = 1.52

When the light enters the water, water will act as a lens and when we see the object from the periscope the object shown is farther than the usual distance.

a car travels from station A to B at 30kmph during its return trip A it travels 30 km pH for the first half distance and it 70 k
8_murik_8 [283]

Explanation:

If you cannot visualize it, just assume that the distance from station A to B is 420km. Each half is 210km.

When the car travels from A to B, it takes 420/30 = 14 hours.

When the car travels from B to the halfway point, it takes 210/30 = 7 hours.

When the car travels from the halfway point to A, it takes 210/70 = 3 hours.

Total time taken = 14 + 7 + 3 = 24 hours.

Total distance = 420km * 2 = 840km.

Hence, the average speed of the car is 840/24 = 35km/h.

A silver wire with resistivity 1.59 × 10-8 Ω-m carries a current density of 4.0 A/mm2, What is the magnitude of the electric fie
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Electric field, E = 0.064 V/m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistivity of silver wire, \rho=1.59\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m

Current density of the wire, J=4\ A/mm^2=4\times 10^6\ A/m^2

We need to find the magnitude of the electric field inside the wire. The relationship between electric field and the current density is given by :

E=J\times \rho

E=4\times 10^6\times 1.59\times 10^{-8}

E = 0.0636 V/m

or

E = 0.064 V/m

So, the magnitude of electric field inside the wire is 0.064 V/m. Hence, this is the required solution.
