A brick is lying on a table in a state of static equilibrium. If the mass of the brick is 7.52 kilograms, what is the normal for

ce exerted by the table on the brick?
A. −73.7 newtons
B. 73.7 newtons
C. 80.7 newtons
D. 7.52 newtons
E. 8.07 newtons

I believe the answer is either A. or B.—I'm just not sure if it should be expressed as a negative or not because the force is acting in the opposite direction.

In mechanics, the normal force<span> is the component, perpendicular to the surface (surface being a plane) of contact, of the contact </span>force<span> exerted on an object . We calculate as follows:

</span>∑F along x = 0 = F - Fn
<span>
Fn = F = mg = 7.52(9.81) = 73.77 N <------OPTION B</span>

During aerobic activity, if your heart rate is lower than the lower limit, you are ___________________.
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Not pushing yourself hard enough is the answer since your heart rate doesn't even hit your lower minimum.
Pushing yourself to the limit is at your max heart rate.
Just at the right spot is at your max heart rate.
Pushing yourself too hard is above your max heart rate.

Can someone help me?​
Leviafan [203]

Car X traveled 3d distance in t time.  Car Y traveled 2d distance in t time. Therefore, the speed of car X, is 3d/t,  the speed of car Y, is 2d/t. Since speed is the distance taken in a given time.

In figure-2, they are at the same place, we are asked to find car Y's position when car X is at line-A. We can calculate the time car X needs to travel to there. Let's say that car X reaches line-A in t' time.

V_x .t' = 3d\\ \frac{3d}{t} .t' = 3d\\ t'=t

Okay, it takes t time for car X to reach line-A. Let's see how far does car Y goes.

V_y.t = \frac{2d}{t} .t = 2d

We found that car Y travels 2d distance. So, when car X reaches line-A, car Y is just a d distance behind car X.

Why must the operating temperature of a heat engine be higher than that of the cold sink?
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

It is important to note, that the 2nd Law of thermodynamics plays no fundamental role in answering this question; we need a heat sink because the entropy is a state function, and at the end of the reversible process (which is visualized through the Carnot cycle diagram relevant for this problem), the entropy value of the system must return to the value it had originally.
