Answer: 5N

Explanation:

Horizontal component is the force that is applied as a result of the diagonal application of force.

here in this case,

given diagonal force =10N.

angle= 30°

horizontal component is found using trigonometry..

so,

A vector of magnitude 10 N is provided.

It is at an angle of 30° to the + x axis.

To find:

The components along the x and y axis.

Calculation:

Along x axis:

F(x) = F cos(θ)

=> F(x) = 10 × cos(30)

=> F(x) = 10 (√3/2) = 5√3N

Along y axis:

F(y) = F sin(θ)

=> F(y) = 10 sin(30°)

=> F(y) = 10 × ½

=> F(y) = 5 N.

Additional information:

1. A vector is a quantity that can be defined with both magnitude and direction.

2. Since force is a vector, we are able to break it down into components along chosen axis.

Question 1 of 5<br> In which way are electromagnetic waves different from mechanical waves?

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they do not require a medium to propagate. This means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only through air and solid materials, but also through the vacuum of space.

A stone of mass m = 1.05 kg is released from a height of h = 2.1 m into a pool of water. At a time of t = 1.83 s after hitting t

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

ignoring air resistance, the kinetic energy at water impact will equal the potential energy converted

½mv² = mgh

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2(9.81)2.1) = 6.4188... m/s

after impact, an impulse will result in a change of momentum.

There is a downward impulse due to gravity equal to the weight of the stone and an upward average force due to water resistance and buoyancy force.

FΔt = mΔv

(F - mg)Δt = m(vf - vi)

(F - mg) = m(vf - vi)/Δt

F = m(vf - vi)/Δt + mg

F = m((vf - vi)/Δt + g)

F = 1.05(((½(-6.4188) - -6.4188)/ 1.83) + 9.81)

F = 12.14198...

F = 12.1 N

In a lab experiment, a student is trying to apply the conservation of momentum. Two identical balls, each with a mass of 1.0 kg,

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Second Trial satisfy principle of conservation of momentum

Explanation:

Given mass of ball A and ball B $=\ 1.0\ Kg.$

Let mass of ball $A$ and $B\ is\ m$

Final velocity of ball $A\ is\ v_1$

Final velocity of ball $B\ is\ v_2$

initial velocity of ball $A\ is\ u_1$

Initial velocity of ball $B\ is\ u_2$

Momentum after collision $=mv_1+mv_2$

Momentum before collision $= mu_1+mu_2$

Conservation of momentum in a closed system states that, moment before collision should be equal to moment after collision.

Now, $mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2$

Plugging each trial in this equation we get,

First Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(1)+1(-2)=1(-2)+1(-1)\\1-2=-2-1\\-1=-3$

momentum before collision $\neq$ moment after collision

Second Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1.5)=1(-.5)+1(-.5)\\.5-1.5=-.5-.5\\-1=-1$

moment before collision $=$ moment after collision

Third Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(2)+1(1)=1(1)+1(-2)\\2+1=1-2\\3=-1$

momentum before collision $\neq$ moment after collision

Fourth Trial

$mu_1+mu_2=mv_1+mv_2\\1(.5)+1(-1)=1(1.5)+1(-1.5)\\.5-1=1.5-1.5\\-.5=0$

momentum before collision $\neq$ moment after collision

We can see only Trial- 2 shows the conservation of momentum in a closed system.
