Answer:

Fx1 (6 m) sin 60 = 300 (3 m) cos 60  balancing torques about floor

Fx1 = 900 * 1/2 / 5.20 = 86.6 N  this is the horizontal force that must be supplied by the wall to balance torques about the floor

This is also equal to the static force of friction that must be applied at the point of contact with the floor to balance forces in the x-direction.

Fx1 = Fx2 = 86.6 N

PLEASE HURRYYYY!!!<br><br> Explain how you read measurements in a graduated cylinder?
fredd [130]

Answer:

Reading a Graduated Cylinder

Place the graduated cylinder on a flat surface and view the height of the liquid in the cylinder with your eyes directly level with the liquid. The liquid will tend to curve downward. This curve is called the meniscus. Always read the measurement at the bottom of the meniscus.....

hope it helps....

A vertical, solid steel post 25 cm in diameter and 2.50m long is required to support a load of 8000kg. You can ignore the weight
Gwar [14]

(a) The stress in the post is 1,568,000 N/m²

(b) The strain in the post is  7.61 x 10⁻⁶  

(c) The change in the post’s length when the load is applied is 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m.

<h3>Area of the steel post</h3>

A = πd²/4

where;

d is the diameter

A = π(0.25²)/4 = 0.05 m²

<h3>Stress on the steel post</h3>

σ = F/A

σ = mg/A

where;

  • m is mass supported by the steel
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • A is the area of the steel post

σ = (8000 x 9.8)/(0.05)

σ = 1,568,000 N/m²

<h3>Strain of the post</h3>

E = stress / strain

where;

  • E is Young's modulus of steel = 206 Gpa

strain = stress/E

strain = (1,568,000) / (206 x 10⁹)

strain = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶

<h3>Change in length of the steel post</h3>

strain = ΔL/L

where;

  • ΔL is change in length
  • L is original length

ΔL = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶ x 2.5

ΔL = 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m

Why do radio waves have the lowest frequency of all the waves on the electromagnetic spectrum?
lara [203]

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which are created as the result of the electrical waves which are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:  

radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.

The energy of the radio waves photons is the lowest of all the other waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Also, E={h\times \nu}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

Thus, energy is directly proportional to the frequency. The radio waves have the lowest frequency.

An average hole drift velocity of 103 cm/sec results when 2 V is applied across a 1 cm long semiconductor bar. What is the hole
Helga [31]

Answer:

ε = 2 V/cm

Explanation:

To calculate the mobility inside this bar, we just need to apply the expression that let us determine the mobility. This expression is the following:

ε = ΔV / L

Where:

ε: Hole mobility inside the bar

ΔV: voltage applied in the bar

L: Length of the bar

We already have the voltage and the length so replacing in the above expression we have:

ε = 2 V / 1 cm

<h2>ε = 2 V/cm</h2><h2></h2>

The data of the speed can be used for further calculations, but in this part its not necessary.

Hope this helps

Explain how do you determine the intensity of earthquake​
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The Richter scale measures the largest wiggle (amplitude) on the recording, but other magnitude scales measure different parts of the earthquake. The USGS currently reports earthquake magnitudes using the Moment Magnitude scale, though many other magnitudes are calculated for research and comparison purposes.
