Answer:

τ = 34.5 N.m

Explanation:

The force applied by the mechanic is 230 N.

Thus, F = 230 N

Now, this force is applied in a counterclockwise manner while pushing perpendicularly at the end of the 0.15m long wrench.

Thus, r = 0.15 m

Formula for the torque in this case is;

τ = Fr sin θ

θ = 90° since mechanic pushed perpendicularly.

Thus;

τ = 230 × 0.15 × sin 90

τ = 34.5 N.m

Light of wavelength 550 nm comes into a thin slit and produces a diffraction pattern on a board 8.0 m away. The first minimum da
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Width of the slit will be equal to 1.47 mm

Explanation:

We have given wavelength of the light \lambda =550nm=550\times 10^{-9}m

Distance D = 8 m

Distance between first minimum dark fringe and the central maximum is 2 mm

So x=3\times 10^{-3}m

We have to find the width of the slit

For the first order wavelength is equal to \lambda =\frac{x}{D}\times a, here a width of slit

So a=\frac{\lambda D}{x}=\frac{550\times 10^{-9}\times 8}{3\times 10^{-3}}=1466.666\times 10^{-6}=1.47mm

So width of the slit will be equal to 1.47 mm

fomenos
<span>The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the Normal .

When the normal is drawn, the incident ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence and the reflected ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence. These angles are always equal.
 
The refracted ray makes an angle with the normal known as angle of refraction. The sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction is called the refractive index( </span>μ= <span>sin i / sin r) .

hope all of it helps you!</span>

Is there a frame of reference one can go into that seems to eliminate gravity as Newton described it?
andriy [413]

Answer:

Yes such a frame exists: a free-fall (free-float frame) frame. This frame of reference is subject only to gravity and no forces such as electromagnetic forces or nuclear forces.

1. Mr. Ure has a mass of 65 kg, due to the fact that he is WAY too skinny! What is the force of Earth's gravity on him?
shepuryov [24]

1.

m = mass of Mr. Ure = 65 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

force of earth's gravity on Mr. Ure is given as

F = mg

F = 65 x 9.8

F = 637 N


2.

F = force of gravity on car = 3050 N

m = mass of the car = ?

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

force of gravity on car is given as

F = mg

3050 = m (9.8)

m = 3050/9.8

m = 311.22 kg


3.

m = mass of Mr. Rees = 90 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

force of earth's gravity on Mr. Rees is given as

F = mg

F = 90 x 9.8

F = 882 N
