Answer:

D. the same as force. the applied force per cross-sectional area.

Explanation:

Tensile stress of a material is defined as the ratio of the applied force on the material to its cross sectional area. this is expressed mathematically as;

Tensile stress = Force/cross sectional area

Tensile stress = F/A

Force is measured in newton while cross sectional area is measured in m

Hence the unit of Tensile stress is N/m²

The angle between the two force of magnitude 20N and 15N is 60 degrees (20N force being horizontal) determine the resultant in m
BARSIC [14]

A) The resultant force is 30.4 N at 25.3^{\circ}

B) The resultant force is 18.7 N at 43.9^{\circ}

Explanation:

A)

In order to find the resultant of the two forces, we must resolve each force along the x- and y- direction, and then add the components along each direction to find the components of the resultant.

The two forces are:

F_1 = 20 N at 0^{\circ} above x-axis

F_2 = 15 N at 60^{\circ} above y-axis

Resolving each force:

F_{1x}=F_1 cos \theta = (20)(cos 0)=20 N\\F_{1y}=F_1 sin \theta =(20)(sin 0)=0 N

F_{2x}=F_2 cos \theta = (15)(cos 60)=7.5 N\\F_{2y}=F_2 sin \theta =(15)(sin 60)=13.0 N

So, the components of the resultant are:

F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=20+7.5 = 27.5 N\\F_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y}=0+13.0=13.0 N

And the magnitude of the resultant is:

F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{27.5^2+13.0^2}=30.4 N

And the direction is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{13.0}{27.5})=25.3^{\circ}

B)

In this case, the 15 N is applied in the opposite direction to the 20 N force. Therefore we need to re-calculate its components, keeping in mind that the angle of the 15 N force this time is

\theta=180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}=120^{\circ}

So we have:

F_{2x}=F_2 cos \theta = (15)(cos 120)=-7.5 N\\F_{2y}=F_2 sin \theta =(15)(sin 120)=13.0 N

So, the components of the resultant this time are:

F_x = F_{1x}+F_{2x}=20-7.5 = 12.5 N\\F_y = F_{1y}+F_{2y}=0+13.0=13.0 N

And the magnitude is:

F=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}=\sqrt{13.5^2+13.0^2}=18.7 N

And the direction is:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{13.0}{13.5})=43.9^{\circ}

A plane leaves Seattle, flies 76.0 mi at 22.0 ∘ north of east, and then changes direction to 51.0 ∘ south of east. After flying
mote1985 [20]
This can be solve by using a triangle, because the path of the plane formed a triangle. first solve the angle form by the second direction
angle = 180 - 51 - 22 = 107 degrees
then using the cosine law
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab cos C
c^2 = 76^2 + 123^2 - 2 ( 76) ( 123) cos ( 107)
c = 162.4 mi <span>the crew fly to go directly to the field

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

For infinite speed to be achevied, one must have no sink of energy to spend. The source of entropy in this example, is the tires hitting the surface, producing heat and friction. Not to mention that you'd still need fuel to start the car, and an infinite tunnel or track, which would be impossible and speed up to process of energy loss through entropy quicker.
