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

Explanation:

Usually when we think of waves, we think of transverse waves.  These are waves where points move up and down perpendicular to the motion of the wave.  Examples include water waves, whipping a rope, or even doing the "wave" in a crowd.  You can think of these as "two dimensional" waves.

Longitudinal waves are waves where points move left or right, parallel to the motion of the wave.  In other words, there is compression and expansion of the medium.  Examples include sound waves, or pulses in a slinky.

Multiply 5.036×102m by 0.078×10−1, taking into account significant figures.
Anika [276]

Answer : The significant digit is 6

Explanation :

Multiply 5.036\times10^{2}m by 0.078\times10^{-1}m

Now, on multiplying

5.036\times10^{2}m \times0.078\times10^{-1}m = 0.392808 \times10^{1}\ m^{2}

5.036\times10^{2}m \times0.078\times10^{-1}m = 0.0392808\ m^{2}

Now, the significant digit is 6.

Hence, this is the required solution.
