Two horses on opposite sides of a narrow stream are pulling a barge up the stream. Each hors pulls with a force of 720N. The rop

es from the horses meet at a common point on the front of he barge. What is the resultant force exerted by the two horses if the angle between the rope is 60 degrees?

For the answer to the question above, each horse's force forms a right angle triangle with the barge and subtends an angle of 60/2 = 30°. The resultant in the direction of the barge's motion is:
Fx = Fcos(∅)
We can multiply this by 2 to find the resultant of both horses.
Fx = 2Fcos(∅)
Fx = 2 x 720cos(30)
Fx = 1247 N

WARRIOR [948]

For the different wires the values given are

For Wire A,  Area=A_{A}, Resistivity=ρ_{A}, Length= L_{A}, Heat=H_{A}, Voltage= V, Time= t, Wire B,  Area=A_{B}, Resistivity=ρ_{B}, Length= L_{B}, Heat=H_{B}

So, H_{A}/ H_{A}=\frac{V^{2} *t}{\frac{ρ(1)*L_{A}  }{A_{A} } }/\frac{V^{2} *t}{\frac{ρ(2)*L_{B}  }{A_{B} } }

Therefore H_{A}/ H_{A}= \frac{A_{A}*ρ_{B} *L_{B}}{A_{B}ρ_{A} L_{A}  }

<h3>Heat</h3>

The type of energy that moves between two materials with varying temperatures is referred to by scientists as heat. Because the average translational kinetic energy per molecule in the two materials varies, an energy transfer takes place. Up until thermal equilibrium is attained, heat is transferred from the substance with the higher temperature to the material with the lower temperature. The joule, with 1 joule equalling 1 newton meter, is the SI unit of heat. Imagine the following situation to better comprehend what happens when this energy transfer takes place: Tiny rubber balls are bouncing all over two distinct containers that are full with them. The difference between the average ball speed in one container and the second container is substantial.

(a) Circular metal wires in electrical circuits may have different cross-sectional areas (different diameters) and different lengths. For a given applied voltage, how would the joule heat vary with these parameters

Magma that cools and crystallizes on Earth's surface forms 
Nostrana [21]

The correct answer is:

D. Extrusive rocks.

The explanation:

when extrusive igneous rocks form when magma reaches the Earth's surface a volcano and cools quickly. Most extrusive (volcanic) rocks have small crystals. Examples include basalt, rhyolite, andesite, and obsidian.

The neurons of giant squids, for example, consist of axons with very large radii, which allows the squid to react very quickly w
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

100

Explanation:

\rho_m = Resistivity of axon

r = Radius of axon

t = Thickness of the membrane

\rho_a = Resistivity of the axoplasm

Speed of pulse is given by

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{\rho_mrt}{2\rho_a}}

So, radius is given by

r=\dfrac{2\rho_a}{\rho_mt}v^2

If radius is increased by a factor of 10 new radius will be

r_2=\dfrac{2\rho_a}{\rho_mt}(10v)^2\\\Rightarrow r_2=100\dfrac{2\rho_a}{\rho_mt}v^2\\\Rightarrow r_2=100r

So, The radius will increase by a factor of 100.
