The y-component of the force F which a person exerts on the handle of the box wrench is known to be 70 lb. Determine the x-compo

nent and the magnitude of F.
Physics

Yuri [45]2 years ago

Answer:

<em>Fx = 121.24lb</em>

<em>F = 140lb</em>

Explanation:

Since we are not given the angles subtended by the force, we can assume it to be 30 degrees.

The y component of the force expressed by the formula:

Fy = Fsintheta

Given the y-component of the force F to bee 70lb

70lb =  Fsintheta

Get magnitude of the force

F = 70/sin theta

F = 70/sin 30

F = 70/0.5

F = 140lb

Get the x-component of the force

Fx = Fcos theta

Fx = 140cos 30

Fx = 140(0.8660)

Fx = 1,212.4lb

<em>Hence the  x-component of the force sis 121.24lb</em>

<em></em>

<em>Note that the angle used was assumed. Other values can as well be used</em>

A researcher studying the nutritional value of a new candy places a 4.60 g sample of the candy inside a bomb calorimeter and com
blagie [28]

Answer:

4500.5 nutritional calories per gram

Explanation:

Heat lost by the new candy = heat gained by the bomb calorimeter.

Heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = c×ΔT

where c = heat capacity of the calorimeter = 32.20 KJ/K = 32200 J/K

ΔT = change in temperature = 2.69°C = 2.69 K.

Heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = 32200 × 2.69 = 86618 J

Heat lost by the new candy = heat gained by the bomb calorimeter = 86618 J = 20702.2 calories

4.60 g of the new candy lost this amount of calories by undergoing combustion,

The amount of calories per g = 20702.2 calories/4.6 g = 4500.5 calories per gram

If the car ha a mass of 1000 kilograms, what is its momentum (v=35m/s)
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

<em>The momentum of the car is 35,000 kg.m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Momentum</u>

Momentum is often defined as <em>mass in motion.</em>

Since all objects have mass, if it's moving, then it has momentum. It can be calculated as the product of the mass by the velocity of the object:

\vec p = m\vec v

If only magnitudes are considered:

p = mv

The car has a mass of m=1,000 kg and travels at v=35 m/s. Calculating its momentum:

p = 1,000 kg * 35 m/s

p = 35,000 kg.m/s

The momentum of the car is 35,000 kg.m/s

How does this diagram demonstrate the law of superposition?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

well, as u can tell the top layer will always be the youngest layer aka the newest layer. The farther u go down the older the layers get. So the deeper u dig the farther back in time we see.

The speed of the center of the earth as it orbits the sun is 107257 kmph and the absolute angular velocity of the earth about it
Sindrei [870]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Speed ,v_0=107257 kmph

Angular velocity,\omega=7.292\times 10^{-5} rad/s

Radius of earth,r=6371 km=6371000 m

1 km=1000 m

Linear velocity,v=r\omega=6371000\times 7.292\times 10^{-5}=464.57 m/s

Linear velocity,v=464.57\times \frac{18}{5}=1672.46 km/h

Velocity at point A,v_A=-vi+v_0 j=-1672.46 i+107257j kmph

Velocity at point B,v_B=v_0j-vj=107257j-1672.46j=105584.54j kmph

Velocity at point C,v_C=v_0j+vi=1672.46 i+107257j kmph

Velocity at point  D,v_D=v_0j+vj=107257j+1672.46j=108929.46jkmph

Mary pushes a crate by applying force of 18 newtons. Unable to push it alone, she gets help from her friend, Anne. Together they
maw [93]
 <span>This problem is relatively simple, in order to solve this problem the only formula you need to know is the formula for friction, which is: 

Ff = UsN 

where Us is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force. 

In order to get the crate moving you must first apply enough force to overcome the static friction: 

Fapplied = Ff 

Since Fapplied = 43 Newtons: 

Fapplied = Ff = 43 = UsN 

and it was given that Us = 0.11, so all you have to do is isolate N by dividing both sides by 0.11 

43/0.11 = N = 390.9 which is approximately 391 or C. 3.9x10^2</span>
