A chair of weight 85.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F =

40.0 N directed at an angle of 35.0deg below the horizontal and the chair slides along the floor.
Using Newton's laws, calculate n, the magnitude of the normal force that the floor exerts on the chair.

Answer:

 N = 107.94 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use Newton's second law.

Let's set a reference system with the x-axis parallel to the ground and the y-axis vertical

X axis

        Fₓ = ma

ej and

       N -F_y - W = 0

let's use trigonometry to decompose the applied force

     cos -35 = Fₓ / F

     sin -35 = F_y / F

     Fₓ = F cos -35

     F_y = F sin -35

     Fₓ = 40.0 cos -35 = 32.766 N

     F_y = 40.0 sin -35 = -22.94 N

we substitute

     N = Fy + W

     N = 22.94 + 85

     N = 107.94 N

Why does your heart not get tired of constantly beating throughout your body
Ipatiy [6.2K]

cardiac muscle is striated. Uniquely, the cells of this kind of muscle are joined strongly together at adherens junctions that “enable the heart to contract forcefully without ripping the fibers apart.”

Use the following half-life graph to answer the following question:
Temka [501]

Answer:

A 1.0 min

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioisotope is defined as the time it takes for the mass of the isotope to halve compared to the initial value.

From the graph in the problem, we see that the initial mass of the isotope at time t=0 is

m_0 = 50.0 g

The half-life of the isotope is the time it takes for half the mass of the sample to decay, so it is the time t at which the mass will be halved:

m'=\frac{50.0 g}{2}=25.0 g

We see that this occurs at t = 1.0 min, so the half-life of the isotope is exactly 1.0 min.
