Well we know the hypotenuse of the triangle which is 253 m. And we know the angle of the triangle which is 55.8 degrees. So we want to find y. And to find y we use sin. And sin is a ratio, the ratio of the opposite leg, and hypotenuse. So sin(55.8) = y/253. Now we solve for y by multiplying both sides by 253. And finally we get 209.25 as the length of the y component.

Find the length of an arc with a radius of 6.0m swept across 2.5 radians.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Hello!

In terms of an arc length, radians is the measurement of an arc length in terms of the original radius. This arc length is 2.5 radians, so we multiply it by our original radius.

2.5(6)=15

Therefore, the arc length is 15 meters.

I hope this helps!

A proton is released in a uniform electric field, and it experiences an electric force of 5 X 10^-10 N toward the South. What is

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Electric field on proton

$E=3.12\times 10^9\ N/C$

Explanation:

Given that

$Force,F=5\times 10^{-10}\ N$

We know that

Charge on proton

$q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

We know that

Force = Electric field x Charge

F= E x q

$E=\dfrac{F}{q}\ N/C$

$E=\dfrac{5\times 10^{-10}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ N/C$

$E=3.12\times 10^9\ N/C$

Electric field on proton

$E=3.12\times 10^9\ N/C$

A 3500 N is force is applied to a spring that has a spring of constant of k= 14000 N/m. How far from equilibrium will the spring

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

the spring be displaced by 25.0 cm

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

F= -K × x

So,

$x = \frac{-F}{K}$

Now

$x = \frac{-3500}{14000} \\\\$

= -0.250m

= 25.0 cm

Hence, the spring be displaced by 25.0 cm

Which component of weight is cause for S.H.M of bob simple pendulum

jeka57 [31]

Explanation:

The Simple Pendulum. A simple pendulum is defined to have a point mass, also known as the pendulum bob, which is suspended from a string of length L with negligible mass ((Figure)). Here, the only forces acting on the bob are the force of gravity (i.e., the weight of the bob) and tension from the string.
