Answer:

10N

Explanation:

1. Every Action has an equal and opposite reAction.

2. If 10N of force is acted upon an wrench, then the wrench will react with an equal amount of force, but in the opposite direction.

A right triangle has sides measuring 5 and 12 inches. If the two vectors have a magnitude of 5 and 12 and are at right angles to

ollegr [7]

Answer:

$x=13$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Magnitude 1 $M_1=5$

Magnitude 1 $M_2=12$

Generally the Pythagoras equation for the magnitudes is mathematically given as

$\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{M_1^2 +M_2^2}$

$\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{5^2 +12^2}$

$x=13$

Therefore resultant magnitude is

$x=13$

Answer:

Explanation:

The concept of elastic and inelastic demand is applied.

for an elastic demand, the elasticity must be greater than 1 and for an Inelastic demand, the elasticity must be less than 1.

Two infinite parallel surfaces carry uniform charge densities of 0.20 nC/m2 and -0.60 nC/m2. What is the magnitude of the electr

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Electric field, E = 45.19 N/C

Explanation:

It is given that,

Surface charge density of first surface, $\sigma_1=0.2\ nC/m^2=0.2\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2$

Surface charge density of second surface, $\sigma=-0.6\ nC/m^2=-0.6\times 10^{-9}\ C/m^2$

The electric field at a point between the two surfaces is given by :

$E=\dfrac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_o}$

$E=\dfrac{\sigma1-\sigma_2}{2\epsilon_o}$

$E=\dfrac{0.2\times 10^{-9}-(-0.6\times 10^{-9})}{2\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}$

E = 45.19 N/C

So, the magnitude of the electric field at a point between the two surfaces is 45.19 N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

A sinusoidal wave travels along a string. if the time for a particular point to move from maximum displacement to zero displacem

Lisa [10]

The time it takes for a point to reach 0 displacement from maximum displacement is $\frac{\pi}{2}$ of a cycle. Thus, one period ( $2\pi$ ) will take $T=0.17*4=0.68s$ .

The frequency is simply $f=\frac{1}{T}=\frac{1}{0.68}=1.47Hz$ .

The speed is given by: $v=f\lambda=1.47*1.4 = 2.06m/s$
