To review the solution to a similar problem, consult Interactive Solution 1.43. The magnitude of a force vector is 87.4 newtons

(N). The x component of this vector is directed along the x axis and has a magnitude of 72.1 N. The y component points along the y axis. (a) Find the angle between and the x axis. (b) Find the component of along the y axis.

Answer:

(a) 34.4°

(b) 49.4 N

Explanation:

(a) From the diagram,

Amgle between the x axis can be calculated as,

cosΘ = adjacent/hypoteneous

cosΘ = 72.1/87.4

cosΘ = 0.8249

Θ = cos⁻¹(0.8249)

Θ = 34.4°.

Hence the angle between the x axis is 34.4°

(b) To find the component along the y axis we make use of pythagoras theorem.

a² = b²+c²................... Equation 1

Where a = 87.4 N, b = 72.1 N, c = y.

Substitute  these values into equation 1

87.4² = 72.1² + y²

y² = 87.4²-72.1²

y² = 2440.35

y = √(2440.35)

y = 49.4 N

KATRIN_1 [288]

All objects are either <u>charged</u> or <u>uncharged</u><u>.</u> Charged objects can have a <u>positive</u> or <u>negative</u> charge. Uncharged objects will have a <u>no</u> charge. Charged objects that have the same charges will <u>repel</u> each other. Charged objects with opposite charges will <u>a</u><u>t</u><u>t</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>c</u><u>t</u> each other. Uncharged objects can become <u>charged</u><u>.</u> The charge an object has gives it <u>electric</u> energy. The charged object’s ability to attract (pull) or repel (push) other objects is called <u>electrostatic</u> force.

Leash a block of 0.5 kg down the entire length of an inclined plane forming a name of 37 ° with the horizontal. Friction with th
castortr0y [4]
The potential energy of the block is given by:
V = m*g*h
m mass
g = 9.81m/s²
h height

The potential energy of a spring is given by:
V = 0.5 * k * x²

k spring constant
x compression of the spring

If the block starts from rest it has potential energy, but no kinetic energy. As it slides down the incline potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. When the block hits the spring the kinetic energy is converted into spring's potential energy. If the spring is fully compressed and the block is at rest again, the block has transferred all its energy into the spring. No energy is lost. So we can write:

m * g * h = 0.5 * k * x²

m = 0.5 kg
g = 9.81 m/s²
h = 2.5m * sin 37° = 1,5 m
x = 0,6 m

Solve for k.

k = 2 * m * g * h / x² = 40.8 N/m

Goodie morning<br>—————————<br><br>what is nitric acid?​
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Nitric acid, also known as aqua fortis and spirit of niter, is a highly corrosive mineral acid. The pure compound is colorless, but older samples tend to acquire a yellow cast due to decomposition into oxides of nitrogen and water. Most commercially available nitric acid has a concentration of 68% in water.

What is the connection between angle of incidence and angle of reflection
Radda [10]

Answer:

The normal line divides the angle between the incident ray and the reflected ray into two equal angles. The angle between the incident ray and the normal is known as the angle of incidence. The angle between the reflected ray and the normal is known as the angle of reflection.
