Three people pull simultaneously on a stubborn donkey. Jack pulls eastward with a force of 83.5 N, Jill pulls with 93.3 N in the

northeast direction, and Jane pulls to the southeast with 121 N. (Since the donkey is involved with such uncoordinated people, who can blame it for being stubborn

Answer:

235.8 N

Explanation:

Given that

Jack

83.5 east

Jill

93.3√2/2 east

93.3√2/2 north

Jane

121√2/2 east

121√2/2 south

From the above listed, we can calculate the total force component on x axis to be

Fx = 83.5 + 93.3√2/2 + 121√2/2

Fx = 83.5 + 65.97 + 85.56

Fx = 235 N (east)

Again, we calculate the total force component on y axis to be

Fy = 93.3√2/2 - 121√2/2

Fy = 65.97 - 85.56

Fy = -19.59 N (south)

Finding the resultant, we have

F = √(Fx²+Fy²)

F = √(235² + (-19.59)²)

F = √55225 + 383.7681

F = √55608.7681

F = 235.8 N

Point charges q1 and q2 are separated by a distance of 60 cm along a horizontal axis. The magnitude of q1 is 3 times the magnitu
Alex777 [14]

d = distance between the two point charges = 60 cm = 0.60 m

r = distance of the location of point "a" where the electric field is zero from charge q_{1} between the two charges.

q_{1} = magnitude of charge on one charge

q_{2} = magnitude of charge on other charge

q_{1} = 3 q_{2}

E_{1} = Electric field by charge q_{1} at point "a"

E_{2} = Electric field by charge q_{2} at point "a"


Electric field by charge q_{1} at point "a" is given as

E_{1} = kq_{1} /r²

Electric field by charge q_{2} at point "a" is given as

E_{2} = kq_{2} /(d-r)²

For the electric field to be zero at point "a"

E_{2} = E_{1}

kq_{2} /(d-r)² = kq_{1} /r²

q_{2} /(d-r)² = 3q_{2} /r²

1/(0.60 - r)² = 3 /r²

r = 0.38 m

r = 38 cm

The earth travels around the sun once a year in an approximately circular orbit whose radius is 1.50x10^11 m. From this data det
seraphim [82]
(a) Determine the circumference of the Earth through the equation,
            C = 2πr
Substituting the known values, 
           C = 2π(1.50 x 10¹¹ m)
             C = 9.424 x 10¹¹ m

Then, divide the answer by time which is given to a year which is equal to 31536000 s. 
          orbital speed = (9.424 x 10¹¹ m)/31536000 s

               orbital speed = 29883.307 m/s

Hence, the orbital speed of the Earth is ~29883.307 m/s.

(b) The mass of the sun is ~1.9891 x 10³⁰ kg.

A research vessel is mapping the bottom of the ocean using sonar. It emits a short sound pulse called "ping" downward. The frequ
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

d = 4180.3m

wavelengt of sound is 0.251m

Explanation:

Given that

frequency of the sound is 5920 Hz

v=1485m/s

t=5.63s

let d represent distance from the vessel to the ocean bottom.

an echo travels a distance equivalent to 2d, that is to and fro after it reflects from the obstacle.

velocity=\frac{distance}{time}\\\\ v=\frac{2d}{t} \\\\vt=2d\\\\d=\frac{vt}{2}

d=\frac{1485*5.63}{2}\\d= 4180.3m

wavelengt of sound is \lambda = v/f

= (1485)/(5920)

= 0.251 m

Waves are observed passing under a dock. Wave crests are 8.0 meters apart. The time for a complete wave to pass by is 4.0 second
Harlamova29_29 [7]
The distance between a trough and a crest is double the amplitude.

The distance between trough and crest is (9m - 6m) = 3m.

So the amplitude of those water waves is (3/2) = 1.5 meters.

For this question, we really don't need to know how far apart the crests are, or how often they pass.  There may be more parts to the question, for which that information is needed.

For example: 

-- What's the wavelength of the waves ?  8 meters.

-- What's the period of the waves ?  4 seconds.

-- What's the frequency of the waves ?  1 / (4 seconds) = 0.25 Hz.

-- What's the speed of the waves ? (8 m) x (0.25 Hz) = 2 m/s
