Answer:

X Component is 183.85N

Explanation:

The x component of the force on the block due to the rope;

X = F cos @ where if is the force, @ is the angle mad with the block.

X = F cos @

X = 240 cos 40

Cos 40= 0.7660, so

X = 240 × 0.7660

X component= 183.85N// rounded to two decimal places.

Answer:

The x-component of the force on the block due to the rope is 183.8 newtons

Explanation:

See the picture attached.

Because the force F on the block due the rope is applied at an angle of 40 degrees respect the horizontal, it has a component on x (Fx) and a component on y (Fy) we should find the x component. We should use trigonometric relations for right tringle. We need the equation that relates hypotenuse (F) and adjacent side (Fx), this relation is:

cos 40 =\frac{F_x}{F}

solving for Fx:

F_x = F*cos 40 = 240*cos(40)

F_x = 183.8 N

3.3 kg block is on a perfectly smooth ramp that makes an angle of 52° with the horizontal. (a) What is the block's acceleration
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a)  a = 7.72 m / s²,  N = 19.9 N  and b)   F = 25.5 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use Newton's second law, let's set a reference system with an axis parallel to the plane and gold perpendicular axis. Let's break down the weight (W)

    sin52 = Wx / W

    cos52 = Wy / W

    Wx = W sin52

    Wy = w cos 52

Let's write them equations

X axis

    Wx = ma

Y Axis

    N-Wy = 0

    N = Wy

a) Let's calculate the acceleration

    a = W sin52 / m = mg sin 52 / m

    a = g sin 52

    a = 9.8 sin52

    a = 7.72 m / s²

The force of the ramp is normal

    N = Wy = mg cos 52

    N = 3.3 9.8 cos 52

    N = 19.9 N

b) For the block to move at constant speed the sum of force on the axis must be zero,

    F - Wx = 0

    F = Wx

    F = mg sin52

   F = 3.3 9.8 sin 52

   F = 25.5 N

3.5 g of a hydrocarbon fuel is burned in a vessel that contains 250. grams of water initially at 25.00 C. After the combustion,
kherson [118]

Answer:

3.) 463 J/g

Explanation:

Heat given by the fuel is used to increase the temperature of the water

so it is given as

Q = ms\Delta T

here we will have

m = 250 g

\Delta T = 26.55 - 25

now we also know that

s = 4186

so we have

Q = (0.250)(4186)(26.55 - 25)

Q = 1622.075 J

so 3.5 g fuel gives above energy

so per gram of fuel will have total energy given as

Q = \frac{1622.075}{3.5}

Q = 463.45 J/g

What is the voltage in a circuit that has a current of 10.0 amps and a resistance of 28.5 ohms?
patriot [66]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR.

V = 10.0 A (28.5 ohms) = 285 V </span>

A magnetic field is entering into a coil of wire with radius of 2(mm) and 200 turns. The direction of magnetic field makes an an
frozen [14]

Answer:

a) <em>2.278 x 10^-5 volts</em>

b) <em>1.139 x 10^-6 Ampere</em>

c) <em>2.59 x 10^-11 W</em>

Explanation:

The radius of the wire r = 2 mm = 0.002 m

the number of turns N = 200 turns

direction of the magnetic field ∅ = 25°

magnetic field strength B = 0.02 T

varying time = 2 sec

The cross sectional area of the wire = \pi r^{2}

==> A = 3.142 x 0.002^{2} = 1.257 x 10^-5 m^2

Field flux Φ = BA cos ∅ = 0.02 x 1.257 x 10^-5 x cos 25°

==> Φ = 2.278 x 10^-7 Wb

The induced EMF is given as

E = NdΦ/dt

where dΦ/dt = (2.278 x 10^-7)/2 = 1.139 x 10^-7

E = 200 x 1.139 x 10^-7 = <em>2.278 x 10^-5 volts</em>

<em></em>

<em></em>

b) If the two ends are connected to a resistor of 20 Ω, the current through the resistor is given as

I = E/R

where R is the resistor

I = (2.278 x 10^-5)/20 = <em>1.139 x 10^-6 Ampere</em>

<em></em>

<em></em>

<em> </em>c) power delivered to the resistor is given as

P = IE

P = (1.139 x 10^-6) x (2.278 x 10^-5) = <em>2.59 x 10^-11 W</em>
