Two horses on opposite sides of a narrow stream are pulling a barge up the stream. Each hors pulls with a force of 720N. The rop

es from the horses meet at a common point on the front of he barge. What is the resultant force exerted by the two horses if the angle between the rope is 60 degrees?

For the answer to the question above, each horse's force forms a right angle triangle with the barge and subtends an angle of 60/2 = 30°. The resultant in the direction of the barge's motion is:
Fx = Fcos(∅)
We can multiply this by 2 to find the resultant of both horses.
Fx = 2Fcos(∅)
Fx = 2 x 720cos(30)
Fx = 1247 N

Contact [7]

Answer:

d = 3.5*10^4 m

Explanation:

In order to calculate the displacement of the airplane you need only the information about the initial position and final position of the airplane. THe initial position is at the origin (0,0,0) and the final position is given by the following vector:

\vec{r}=(1.21*10^3\hat{i}+3.45*10^4\hat{j})m

The displacement of the airplane is obtained by using the general form of the Pythagoras theorem:

d=\sqrt{(x-x_o)^2+(y-y_o)^2}   (1)

where x any are the coordinates of the final position of the airplane and xo and yo the coordinates of the initial position. You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

d=\sqrt{(1.12*10^3-0)^2+(3.45*10^4-0)^2}=3.45*10^4m

hence, the displacement of the airplane is 3.45*10^4 m

WARRIOR [948]

Physical fitness is related to our ability to carry out daily tasks without being too tired or sore. This statement is TRUE.  

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Good physical fitness means that you can perform daily activities, occupations, and sports. This condition will be achieved through good nutrition, regular exercise, and have enough rest.  

The benefit of physical activity and exercise can be immediate as well as long-term. Most importantly, regular activity can improve your quality of life.There are four types of physical fitness:

  1. Cardiovascular exercise: exercises that increase the work of the heart and lungs, such as walking, jogging, step aerobics, swimming, and biking. Cardio activity improves your heart/lung function and muscle mass.
  2. Muscular strength exercise: this exercise is to build overall strength and muscle mass.
  3. Joint flexibility exercise:  this exercise to help the ability of the muscle group can be stretched or joint can be moved, for example: bending, lifting and driving. Stretching can reduce the risk of injury.  
  4. Muscular endurance exercise:  this exercise to find out how many repetitions of exercises a person can perform, such as push-ups and sit-ups.

kkurt [141]

Answer:attract each other

Explanation:

When two-sphere, one with a negative charge and another neutral is brought close together but do not touch then they try to attract each other.

This because of the polarization of the neutral sphere as it is placed in the vicinity of a negatively charged sphere. The negatively charged sphere will induce the positive charge in the neutral sphere and they will attract each other according to Columb law.
