baherus [9]3 years ago

Answer:

The increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases

Explanation:

It is easier to climb a mountain in a zigzag way rather than climbing on a straight line but since the distance is the same ( vertical height ) , mass and gravity is the same. Hence the increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases.

gravitational potential energy = mgh ( same in both cases )

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = distance ( vertical height )

Two forces act on a 41-kg object. One force has magnitude 65 N directed 59° clockwise from the positive x-axis, and the other ha
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

a = 1.41 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

mass ,m= 41 kg

F₁ = 65 N , θ = 59°

F₂ = 35 N ,θ = 32°

The component of Force F₁

F₁x= F₁cos59° i

F₁x= 65 x cos59° i = 33.47 i

F₁y= - F₁ sin 59° j

F₁y= - 65 x sin 59° j = - 55.71 j

The component of Force F₂

F₂x= F₂ sin 32° i

F₂x= 35 x sin 32° i = 18.54 i

F₂y=  F₂ cos 32° j

F₂y=  35 x cos 32° j =  29.68 j

The total force F

F= 33.47 i +   18.54 i - 55.71 j +   29.68 j

F= 52.01 i - 26.03 j

The magnitude of the force F

F=\sqrt{52.01^2+26.03 ^2}\ N

F=58.16 N

We know that

F= m a

a= Acceleration

m=mass

58.16 = 41 x a

a = 1.41 m/s²

A timline is necessary :
kolezko [41]

Answer:

A. For every goal

Explanation:

A timeline is necessary for every goal set, be it academic, life, high school, personal, and the like. A timeline is an important part of goal setting. It helps determine what should be done by a certain time to ensure that you will reach your goal. Although some goals can take a long time to reach, a timeline will be your constant reminder of what needs to be done.

When setting a timeline, you also need to take in consideration what you want to achieve. You need to set a realistic timeline as many usually underestimate the obstacles they may face in pursuing their goals.
