Answer:

La magnitud de la masa del peso es 78.447 libras-masa.

Explanation:

La tensión es una fuerza de reacción de la cuerda causada por la acción de una fuerza externa. En este caso, esa fuerza externa es el peso que cuelga en el centro de la cuerda. Abajo hemos adjuntado una representación simplificada del enunciado.

Por las leyes de Newton, tenemos la siguiente ecuación de equilibrio conformada por tres fuerzas:

\vec T_{1} + \vec T_{2} + \vec W = (0, 0)\, [N] (1)

Donde:

\vec T_{1}, \vec T_{2} - Tensiones a cada lado de la cuerda, en newtons.

\vec W- Peso, en newtons.

Si sabemos que \vec T_{1} = T\cdot (\cos \alpha, \sin \alpha), \vec T_{2} = T\cdot (-\cos \alpha, \sin \alpha) y \vec W = W\cdot (0, -1), entonces tenemos la siguiente ecuación vectorial:

T\cdot (\cos \alpha, \sin \alpha) + T\cdot (-\cos\alpha, \sin \alpha) + W\cdot (0, -1) = (0,0)

T\cdot (0, 2\cdot \sin \alpha) = W\cdot (0, 1)

Esto permite reducir la anterior expresión a una fórmula escalar:

2\cdot T\cdot \sin \alpha = W

Donde \alpha es el ángulo de inclinación de la cuerda, medido en grados sexagesimales.

El ángulo de inclinación de la cuerda se determina mediante la siguiente fórmula trigonométrica inversa es:

\alpha = \tan^{-1} \left(\frac{2\,ft}{10\,ft}\right)

\alpha \approx 11.310^{\circ}

Si conocemos que \alpha \approx 11.310^{\circ} y T = 200\,lbf, entonces la magnitud del peso es:

W = 2\cdot (200\,lb)\cdot \sin 11.310^{\circ}

W \approx 78.447\,lbf

En el Sistema Imperial, las fuerzas son medidas en forma gravitacional, entonces la magnitud de la fuerza gravitacional del peso equivale a la magnitud de su masa. En síntesis, la magnitud de la masa es 78.447\,lbm.

La magnitud de la masa del peso es 78.447 libras-masa.

What is the term for substances that have several unpaired electrons and are strongly magnetic
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Scientific definitions for ferromagnetic

The property of being strongly attracted to either pole of a magnet. Ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, contain unpaired electrons, each with a small magnetic field of its own, that align readily with each other in response to an external magnetic field.

An electron enters the gap between the plates of a capacitor at the center of the gap traveling parallel to theplates at 2.0 x 1
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

How far will the electron travel beforehitting a plate is 248.125mm

Explanation:

Applying Gauss' law:

Electric Field E = Charge density/epsilon nought

Where charge density=1.0 x 10^-6C/m2 & epsilon nought= 8.85× 10^-12

Therefore E = 1.0 x 10^-6/8.85× 10^-12

E= 1.13×10^5N/C

Force on electron F=qE

Where q=charge of electron=1.6×10^-19C

Therefore F=1.6×10^-19×1.13×10^5

F=1.808×10^-14N

Acceleration on electron a = Force/Mass

Where Mass of electron = 9.10938356 × 10^-31

Therefore a= 1.808×10^-14 /9.11 × 10-31

a= 1.985×10^16m/s^2

Time spent between plate = Distance/Speed

From the question: Distance=1cm=0.01m and speed = 2×10^6m/s^2

Therefore Time = 0.01/2×10^6

Time =5×10^-9s

How far the electron would travel S =ut+ at^2/2 where u=0

S= 1.985×10^16×(5×10^-9)^2/2

S=24.8125×10^-2m

S=248.125mm
