The cart travelled a distance of 14.4 m

Explanation:

The work done by a force when pushing an object is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where:

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this problem we have:

W = 157 J is the work done on the cart

F = 10.9 N is the magnitude of the force

$\theta=0^{\circ}$ , assuming the force is applied parallel to the motion of the cart

Therefore we can solve for d to find the distance travelled by the cart:

$d=\frac{W}{F cos \theta}=\frac{157}{(10.9)(cos 0)}=14.4 m$

Can you access an instance variable from a static method? explain why or why not.

marusya05 [52]

<span>The reason a static method can't access instance variable is because static references the class not a specific instance of the class so there is no instance variable to access.</span>

You are camping with two friends, Joe and Karl. Since all three of you like your privacy, you don't pitch your tents close toget

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

35.7 m

Explanation:

Let

$\mid A\mid=18.5 m$

$\mid B\mid=41 m$

We have to find the distance between Joe's and Karl'e tent.

$A_x=Acos\theta$

$A_y=Asin\theta$

Substitute the values then we get

$A_x=18.5cos23^{\circ}=17 m$

$A_y=18.5sin 23^{\circ}=7.2 m$

$B_x=41cos37.5^{\circ}=32.5 m$

$B_y=41sin37.5^{\circ}=-24.96 m$

Because vertical component of B lie in IV quadrant and y-inIV quadrant is negative.

By triangle addition of vector

$B=A+C$

$C=B-A$

$C_x=B_x-A_x=32.5-17=15.5 m$

$C_y=B_y-A_y=-24.96-7.2=-32.16\approx=-32.2 m$

$\mid C\mid=\sqrt{C^2_x+C^2_y}$

$\mid C\mid=\sqrt{(15.5)^2+(-32.2)^2}=35.7 m$

Hence, the distance between Joe's and Karl's tent=35.7 m

3. How does Earth’s rotation affect our view of stars

Elis [28]

Since we ride along with the Earth while it's doing whatever it does,
the Earth's rotation causes our eyes to constantly point in a different
direction.

If we try to keep watching one star, we have to keep changing the
direction of our eyes to keep looking at the same star.

We can't feel the Earth rotating, so our brains say that the star ... and
the sun and the moon too ... is actually moving across the sky.

A 38.2 kg wagon is towed up a hill inclined at 17.5 ◦ with respect to the horizontal. The tow rope is parallel to the incline an

Tema [17]

Answer:

v = 8.57 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the wagon is pulled up by string system

So the net force on the wagon along the inclined is due to tension in the rope and component of weight along the inclined plane

So as per work energy theorem we know that

work done by tension force + work done by force of gravity = change in kinetic energy
