The radiations detected by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson
were the original heat from the Big Bang.

Today, we call those waves the "Cosmic Microwave Background".

I'm not sure, but I think those guys were awarded a Nobel Prize in Physics
for that discovery.

A 1300 kg steel beam is supported by two ropes. (Figure
Dmitriy789 [7]

Relative to the positive horizontal axis, rope 1 makes an angle of 90 + 20 = 110 degrees, while rope 2 makes an angle of 90 - 30 = 60 degrees.

By Newton's second law,

  • the net horizontal force acting on the beam is

R_1 \cos(110^\circ) + R_2 \cos(60^\circ) = 0

where R_1,R_2 are the magnitudes of the tensions in ropes 1 and 2, respectively;

  • the net vertical force acting on the beam is

R_1 \sin(110^\circ) + R_2 \sin(60^\circ) - mg = 0

where m=1300\,\rm kg and g=9.8\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}.

Eliminating R_2, we have

\sin(60^\circ) \bigg(R_1 \cos(110^\circ) + R_2 \cos(60^\circ)\bigg) - \cos(60^\circ) \bigg(R_1 \sin(110^\circ) + R_2 \sin(60^\circ)\bigg) = 0\sin(60^\circ) - mg\cos(60^\circ)

R_1 \bigg(\sin(60^\circ) \cos(110^\circ) - \cos(60^\circ) \sin(110^\circ)\bigg) = -\dfrac{mg}2

R_1 \sin(60^\circ - 110^\circ) = -\dfrac{mg}2

-R_1 \sin(50^\circ) = -\dfrac{mg}2

R_1 = \dfrac{mg}{2\sin(50^\circ)} \approx \boxed{8300\,\rm N}

Solve for R_2.

\dfrac{mg\cos(110^\circ)}{2\sin(50^\circ)} + R_2 \cos(60^\circ) = 0

\dfrac{R_2}2 = -mg\cot(110^\circ)

R_2 = -2mg\cot(110^\circ) \approx \boxed{9300\,\rm N}

A truck traveling at a constant speed of 28 m/s passes a more slowly moving car. The instant the truck passes the car, the car b
choli [55]

Answer:

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

Explanation:

given,

constant speed of truck  = 28 m/s

acceleration of car = 1.2 m/s²

passes the truck in 545 m

speed of the car when it just pass the truck = ?

time taken by the truck to travel 545 m

              time =\dfrac{distance}{speed}

              time =\dfrac{545}{28}

              time =19.46 s

velocity of the car when it crosses the truck

S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

545= u\times 19.46 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 19.46^2

u = 16.33 m/s

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 294 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 121 GPa. (a) What
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

a) load in Newton is 96,138 b) 129.314mm

Explanation:

Stress = force/ area (cross sectional area of the bronze)

Force(load) = 294*10^6*327*10^-6 = 96138N

b) modulus e = stress/ strain

Strain = stress/ e = (294*10^6)/ (121*10^ 9) = 2.34* 10^ -3

Strain = change in length/ original length = DL/ 129

Change in length DL = 129 * 2.34*10^ -3 = 0.31347

Maximum length = change in length + original length = 129.314mm

The forces in (Figure 1) are acting on a 1.0 kg object.What is ax , the x -component of the object's acceleration
a_sh-v [17]

The x -component of the object's acceleration is 2 m/s².

<h3>What's the resultant force along x- direction?</h3>
  • Forces along x axis direction are as follows
  1. 4N along +x axis, so it's taken as +4 N
  2. 2N along -x axis , so it's taken as -2N.
  • Resultant force along x direction = 4N - 2N = 2 N which is along + ve x direction.

<h3>What's the acceleration along x axis direction?</h3>
  • As per Newton's second law, Force = mass × acceleration of the object
  • Force along x axis= mass × acceleration along x axis= 2N
  • Acceleration = 2/ mass = 2/1 = 2 m/s²

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration along x axis is 2 m/s².
