The correct answer is Launch angle

Explanation:

The Independent Variable can be easily identified because this is the factor or variable the researcher modifies. In this case, this term applies to the angle because as part of the experiment the student changes the angle multiple times to test how the maximum height changes. Moreover, the maximum height would be the dependent variable as it is the main factor and it changes or depends on other variables including the angle. Thus, it can be concluded the independent variable is the launch angle or the angle from which the ball is launched.

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c
GalinKa [24]

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,261.12N.

To find the answer, we need to know about the tension.

<h3>How to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge?</h3>
  • Let's draw the free body diagram of the system using the given data.
  • From the diagram, we have to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.
  • For that, it is given that the horizontal component of force is equal to the 86.62N, which is same as that of the horizontal component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge.

                           N_x=86.62N

  • We have to find the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge. For this, we have to equate the total force in the vertical direction.

                           N_y=F_V=mg-Tsin59\\

  • To find Ny, we need to find the tension T.
  • For this, we can equate the net horizontal force.

                           F_H=N_x=Tcos59\\\\T=\frac{F_H}{cos59} =\frac{86.62}{0.51}= 169.84N

  • Thus, the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge become,

                    N_y= (40*9.8)-(169.8*sin59)=246.4N

  • Thus, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,

                 N=\sqrt{N_x^2+N_y^2} =\sqrt{(86.62)^2+(246.4)^2}=261.12N

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge is 261.12N.

A person is trying to lift a crate that has a mass of 30 kg. The normal force of the floor is currently supplying 150N of force.
alexdok [17]

Here when an object is placed on the level floor then in that case there are two forces on the object

1). Weight of object downwards (mg)

2). Normal force due to floor which will counterbalance the weight (N)

so when no force is applied on the box at that time normal force is counter balanced by weight.

Now here it is given that A person tried to lift the box upwards

So now there are two forces on the box

1). Applied force of person

2). Normal force due to ground

So now these two forces will counter balance the weight of the crate

So we can write an equation for force balance like

F_g = F_n + F_a

given that

F_g = mg

here

m = 30 kg and

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^2

F_n = 150 N

now from above equation

30*10 = 150 + F_a

F_a = 300 - 150 = 150 N

So force applied by the person must be 150 N

In the context of energy transfers with hot and cold reservoirs, the sign convention is that _______________.
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

B. QC > 0; QH < 0

Explanation:

Given that there are two reservoir of energy.

Sign convention for heat and work :

1.If the heat is adding to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is going out from the system then it is taken as negative.

2. If the work is done on the system then it is taken as negative and if the work is done by the system then it is taken as positive.

From hot reservoir heat is going out that is why it is taken as negative

Q_H

From cold reservoir heat is coming inside the reservoir that is why it is taken as positive

Q_C>0

That is why the answer will be

Q_H ,Q_C>0
