Answer: 3.36 N

Explanation:

The weight of the body acting downwards is balanced by the sine components of the tension acting in the upward direction. The cosine components balance each other.

We just have to find weight, so will calculate only sine component.

Fg = 2 T sin θ

T = 3.7 N

θ = 27°

⇒ Fg = 2 × 3.7 N × sin 27° = 3.36 N

Thus, the body held by two wires having tension 3.7 N suspended from a rigid support at an angle 27° has weight = 3.36 N

I'm not completely sure, but I think it's 3.4 newtons. I hope you get it correct.

PLEASE HELP. GRAVITY QUESTION, WRITTEN RESPONSE.
Rina8888 [55]

1) Forces acting on your body: force of gravity and normal reaction

2) Due to Newton's second law, N = mg

Explanation:

1)

When you sit on the computer, there are only two forces acting on you:

  • The force of gravity, acting downward, of magnitude W=mg, where m is your mass and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity, downward
  • The normal reaction exerted by the chair on you, N, acting upward

Your body is in equilibrium (it doesn't move), this means that the two forces balance each other, therefore:

N-mg=0\\N=mg

2)

We can now apply Newton's second law of motion to this situation; this law states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. Mathematically,

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

In this situation, the net force is

\sum F = N-mg

So the equation becomes

N-mg=ma

However, we observe that your body is at rest; therefore, the acceleration is zero:

a = 0

And therefore,

N-mg=0\\N=mg

Air escaping out from an air hose at a gas station always feels cool. Why? ​
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The air is contained at a high pressure in the tube. When it escapes from a small orifice, it suddenly expands. A large amount of its heat is absorbed in the process of expansion resulting in considerable fall in its temperature. This is why the escaping air feels cold.

If a scuba diver fills his lungs to full capacity of 5.5 L when 10 m below the surface, to what volume would his lungs expand if
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The volume at the surface is 10.97 L.

Explanation:

Given that,

Volume = 5.5 L

Height = 10 m

Density of sea water= 1025 kg/m³

We need to calculate the pressure at that point

Using formula of pressure

P'=P+\rho gh

Put the value into the formula

P'=1.01\times10^{5}+1025\times9.8\times10

P'=201450\ Pa

We need to calculate the volume at the surface

Using equation of ideal gas

PV= RT

So, for both condition

PV=P'V'

Put the value into the formula

V=\dfrac{201450\times5.5}{1.01\times10^{5}}

V=10.97\ L

Hence, The volume at the surface is 10.97 L.
