Answer:

a) Tc = 750 [N]  ;b) See the explanation below.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need a graphical explanation of this, as well as knowing the corresponding questions. Therefore, a search was carried out in google, in the attached image we will find a graphical description of the problem.

b)

The solution of this type of problem corresponds to the use of Newton's third law, applying static which tells us that the sum of the forces in a system in equilibrium without movement must be equal to zero.

a)

In this way we can find by means of a sum of forces on the y axis equal to zero:

- 850 - 450 + 550 + Tc = 0

Tc = 750 [N]

The height of the tower and the distance from its base form a right angle triangle. Thus,
tan(∅) = height / base
tan(28.81) = height / 1,000 m

Find the sum of the vectors:10km west.5 km south
patriot [66]

Answer:

11.2km

Explanation:

Using Pythagoras theorem

R² = 10² + 5²

R² = 100 + 25

R² = 125

R = √125

R = 11.2km

An ideal monatomic gas initially has a temperature of 330 K and a pressure of 6.00 atm. It is to expand from volume 500 cm3 to v
Sonbull [250]

a. Final pressure= 5atm

b. Work done = 5000 Joules

<h3>How to determine the parameters</h3>

Given;

  • Temperature = 330K
  • P1 = 6 atm
  • V1 = 500cm^3
  • V2 = 1500cm^2

In adiabatic expansion, temperature is constant

P1V1 = P2V2

Now, let's substitute the values into the formula

6 × 500 = 1500 P2

300 = 1500P2

Make 'p2' subject of formula

P2 = 1500/300

P2 = 5 atm

The formula for work done is given as:

Workndone = P ∆ volume

Work done = 5 × ( 1500 - 500)

Work done = 5 × 1000

Work done = 5000 Joules

Objects in motion tend to stay in motion in a straight line at a constant velocity unless acted on by a(n) force​
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Newton's first law of motion

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object will continue to remain at rest or move with uniform motion unless it is acted upon by an external force.

This law is known as the law of inertial.

Unless a net force greater than zero acts on a body, it will continue to remain at rest or move uniformly.

This is very correct and has a wide range of application for many mechanics studies. In that we know that an object can only change motion or accelerate by adding external force to act on it.
