77julia77 [94]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

━☆゚.*・。゚If <em>the angle is the angle between the eastern axis and the vector, then the leg adjacent the angle is the x-component and the leg opposite the angle is the y-component. Thus, the cosine function is used to calculate the x-component and the sine function is used to calculate the y</em>

A ramp is used to load furniture onto a moving truck. The person does 1240 J of work pushing
Len [333]

Answer:

The efficiency of the ramp is, Eff = 6.63 %

Explanation:

Given,

The work done by the person pushing the furniture up the ramp is, W₁ = 1240 J

The work done by the ramp is, W₀ = 822 J

The efficiency of the ramp is given by the formula,

                                 <em> Eff = ( W₀ / W₁ ) x 100%</em>

                                        = ( 822 / 12400 ) x 100%

                                        = 6.63 %

Hence, the efficiency of the ramp is, Eff = 6.63 %

What is the frequency of an X-ray with wavelength 0.13 nm ? Assume that the wave travels in free space. Express your answer to t
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Frequency, f=2.30\times 10^{18}\ Hz

Explanation:

Given that,

The wavelength of the x-rays, \lambda=0.13\ nm=0.13\times 10^{-9}\ m

We need to find the frequency of an x-ray. All electromagnetic wave travel with a speed of light. It is given by the formula as :

c=f\lambda

f is the frequency

f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{0.13\times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=2.30\times 10^{18}\ Hz

So, the frequency of an x-ray is 2.30\times 10^{18}\ Hz. Hence, this is the required solution.

What . Slides are placed upside down in a slide projector to correct for the _______ image produced. A. magnified B. inverted C.
Yuri [45]
<span>The correct answer is B. Inverted image. This is because of all the lenses and light refractions and what not. The same things happens with our eyes except our brains fix the inverted image automatically. Since there are no brains in a projector, you have to fix it on your own by putting it in reverse.</span>

What force is necessary to accelerate a 2500 kg care from rest to 20 m/s over 10 seconds?
EleoNora [17]
Force = mass x acceleration
force = 2500kg x (20m/s / 10m/s)
force = 2500kg x 2m/s^2
force = 5000kg m/s^2 = 5kN

i hope this is right (^^)

A real battery with internal resistance 0.460 Ω and emf 9.00 V is used to charge a 56.0-µF capacitor. A 21.0-Ω resistor is put i
Margaret [11]

Answer: 1.176×10^-3 s

Explanation: The time constant formulae for an RC circuit is given below as

t =RC

Where t = time constant , R = magnitude of resistance = 21 ohms , C = capacitance of capacitor = 56 uf = 56×10^-6 F

t = 56×10^-6 × 21

t = 1176×10^-6

t = 1.176×10^-3 s
