Answer:

T1 = 131.4 [N]

T2 = 261 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must make a sketch of how will be the semicircle, for this reason we conducted an internet search, to find the scheme of the problem. This scheme is attached in the first image.

Then we make a free body diagram, with this free body diagram, we raise the forces that act on the body. Since it is a problem involving static equilibrium, the sum of forces in any direction and moments must be equal to zero.

By performing a sum of forces on the Y axis equal to zero we can find an equation that relates the forces of tension T1 & T2.

The second equation can be determined by summing moments equal to zero, around the point of application of the T1 force. In this way we find the T2 force.

The value of T2, is replaced in the first equation and we can find the value for T1.

Therefore

T1 = 131.4 [N]

T2 = 261 [N]

The free body diagram and the developed equations can be seen in the second attached image.

a physics student throws a stone horizontally off a cliff. one second later, he throws a second identical stone in exactly the s

Virty [35]

The second stone hits the ground exactly one second after the first.

The distance traveled by each stone down the cliff is calculated using second kinematic equation;

$h = v_0_yt + \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

where;

t is the time of motion
$v_0_y$ is the initial vertical velocity of the stone = 0

$h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

The time taken by the first stone to hit the ground is calculated as;

$t_1 = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }$

When compared to the first stone, the time taken by the second stone to hit the ground after 1 second it was released is calculated as

$t_2 = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } + 1$

$t_2 = t_1 + 1$

Thus, we can conclude that the second stone hits the ground exactly one second after the first.

"Your question is not complete, it seems be missing the following information;"

A. The second stone hits the ground exactly one second after the first.

B. The second stone hits the ground less than one second after the first

C. The second stone hits the ground more than one second after the first.

D. The second stone hits the ground at the same time as the first.

An electron traverses a vacuum tube with a length of 2 m in 2 X 10- 4

Maslowich

Answer:

Average speed = 10,000 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 2m

Time = 0.0002secs

To find the average speed;

Average speed = distance/time

Average speed = 2/0.0002

Average speed = 10,000 m/s

Therefore, the average speed of the

electron is 10,000 meters per seconds.

The process by which land remove surface materials is called

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Deflation

Explanation:

The process by which wind removes surface materials is called deflation.

Deflation is a process by which wind erodes the Earth's exterior and the regions which experience severe erosion are called deflation zones.

deflation originates by the erosive force of a wind that removes the loosened area and this process is facilitated by a dry climate and a loss of vegetative cover that helps to lose the sediment.

deflation is common in the arid regions.
