Answer: 74.8m

Explanation:

We have the vector defined by:

r = 101m

θ = 42.2°

When we want to write this as rectangular components, we have that:

x = r*cos(θ)

y = t*sin(θ)

this is because we can construct a triangle rectangle, where the module of the vector is the hypotenuse, the x component is the adjacent cathetus and the y component is the opposite cathetus.

Then, here we have that the x component is

x = 101m*cos(42.2°) = 74.8m

A constellation’s changing position in the sky, at the same time of the evening, over a period of several weeks is evidence that

Goryan [66]

Answer:

d- Earth revolves around the sun.

Explanation:

Earth rotation can be defined as the amount of time taken by planet earth to complete its spinning movement on its axis.

This ultimately implies that, the rotation of earth refers to the time taken by earth to rotate once on its axis. One spinning movement of the earth on its axis takes approximately 24 hours to complete with respect to the sun.

On the other hand, earth revolution can be defined as a complete trip along a path around the sun. This path is known as an orbit and it typically takes the Earth 365¼ days to complete it's journey around the Sun.

When a constellation (stars) changes its position in the sky, at the same time of the evening and over a period of several weeks; it ultimately implies or is an evidence that Earth revolves around the sun.

Two parallel disks of diameter D 5 0.6 m separated by L 5 0.4 m are located directly on top of each other. Both disks are black

oksian1 [2.3K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Stefan-Boltzmann law which establishes that a black body emits thermal radiation with a total hemispheric emissive power (W / m²) proportional to the fourth power of its temperature.

Heat flow is obtained as follows:

$Q = FA\sigma\Delta T^4$

Where,

F =View Factor

A = Cross sectional Area

$\sigma =$ Stefan-Boltzmann constant

T= Temperature

Our values are given as

D = 0.6m

$L = 0.4m\\T_1 = 450K\\T_2 = 450K\\T_3 = 300K$

The view factor between two coaxial parallel disks would be

$\frac{L}{r_1} = \frac{0.4}{0.3}= 1.33$

$\frac{r_2}{L} = \frac{0.3}{0.4} = 0.75$

Then the view factor between base to top surface of the cylinder becomes $F_{12} = 0.26$ . From the summation rule

$F_{13} = 1-0.26$

$F_{13} = 0.74$

Then the net rate of radiation heat transfer from the disks to the environment is calculated as

$\dot{Q_3} = \dot{Q_{13}}+\dot{Q_{23}}$

$\dot{Q_3} = 2\dot{Q_{13}}$

$\dot{Q_3} = 2F_{13}A_1 \sigma (T_1^4-T_3^4)$

$\dot{Q_3} = 2(0.74)(\pi*0.3^2)(5.67*10^{-8})(450^4-300^4)$

$\dot{Q_3} = 780.76W$

Therefore the rate heat radiation is 780.76W

Later, while taking your groceries back to the car, you accidentally let go of your cart. It rolls straight down a grassy slope

VladimirAG [237]

Car is moving on the glassy slope with constant speed

Now we know that

$a = \frac{dv}{dt}$

so acceleration is rate of change in velocity

as we know that velocity is constant here so acceleration is zero

so here

$a = 0$

now as we know by Newton's II law

$F = ma$

since a = 0

$F = 0$

so net force will be ZERO on it during this motion

What conversion takes place in a generator?

Andrew [12]

Answer:

B. An electric current into a magnetic field

Explanation:

The generation of electrical power requires relative motion between a magnetic field and a conductor. In a generator, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy. The electricity produced by most generators is in the form of alternating current.
