Answer:

Transverse wave, motion in which all points on a wave oscillate along paths at right angles to the direction of the wave's advance. Surface ripples on water, seismic S (secondary) waves, and electromagnetic (e.g., radio and light) waves are examples of transverse waves.

The vertical force f acts downward at A on the two membered frames. Determine the magnitude of the two components of F directed

galben [10]

Answer:

The magnitude will be "353.5 N". A further solution is given below.

Explanation:

The given values is:

F = 500 N

According to the question,

In ΔABC,

⇒ $\angle BCA = (90-30)$

⇒ $=60^{\circ}$

then,

⇒ $\angle BAC=(180-45-60)$

⇒ $=75^{\circ}$

Now,

The corresponding angle will be:

⇒ $\angle FAC=60^{\circ}$

⇒ $\angle FAB=70+60$

⇒ $=135^{\circ}$

Aspect of F across the AC arm will be:

= $F\times cos(60)$

On putting the values of F, we get

= $500\times (.5)$

= $200 \ Newton$

Component F along the AC (in magnitude) will be:

= $F\times cos(135)$

= $500\times (-.707)$

= $-353.5 \ N \$

What is the difference between a counting loop and an infinite loop?

REPETITION CYCLES. A repeating structure allows you to execute an instruction or a set of instructions multiple times. A repetitive execution of sentences is characterized by: The sentence or sentences that are repeated. The cycle is one of the most important basic programming structures, as it is present in dissimilar problems. In structured programming there are three types of basic cycles: determined, indeterminate avoidable, and indeterminate unavoidable; On the other hand, visual programming brings with it a revolutionary change in this structure, since the user who controls when the cycle ends is himself, activating an event that signifies the breaking of the cycle.

Neutron stars are extremely dense objects formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. Suppose th

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

10989.55932 rad/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of object

M = Mass of neutron star = $2\times 1.989\times 10^{30}\ kg$

R = Radius of neutron star = 13000 m

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

$\omega$ = Angular speed

Here, the gravitational force will balance the centripetal force

$\dfrac{GmM}{R^2}=mR\omega^2\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R^3}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}{13000^3}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=10989.55932\ rad/s$

The greatest possible angular speed an object can have is 10989.55932 rad/s
