In the design of a supermarket, there are to be several ramps connecting different parts of the store. Customers will have to pu

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

3.90 degrees

Explanation:

Let g= 9.81 m/s2. The gravity of the 30kg grocery cart is

W = mg = 30*9.81 = 294.3 N

This gravity is split into 2 components on the ramp, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the ramp.

We can calculate the parallel one since it's the one that affects the force required to push up

F = WsinΘ

Since customer would not complain if the force is no more than 20N

F = 20

$294.3sin\theta = 20$

$sin\theta = 20/294.3 = 0.068$

$\theta = sin^{-1}0.068 = 0.068 rad = 0.068*180/\pi \approx 3.90^0$

So the ramp cannot be larger than 3.9 degrees

List the main types of electromagnetic waves in order of increasing frequency. radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light,

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, gamma rays

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are oscillations of electric and magnetic fields in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse waves). They are classified into 7 different types, according to their frequencies.

From lowest to highest frequency, we have:

Radio waves

Microwaves $10^9 Hz - 4\cdot 10^{13}Hz$

Infrared $4\cdot 10^{13} - 4\cdot 10^{14} Hz$

Visible light $4\cdot 10^{14} - 8\cdot 10^{14}Hz$

Ultraviolet $8\cdot 10^{14} - 2.4\cdot 10^{16} Hz$

X-rays $2.4\cdot 10^{16} -5 \cdot 10^{19}Hz$

Gamma rays $>5\cdot 10^{19} Hz$

3. A 142 g baseball is thrown at a speed of 42.9 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the baseball at this moment?

krok68 [10]

Kinetic energy=1/2mv^2
=1/2(142*10^-3)(42.9)^2=130.6=131J

A pulley system has an efficiency of 87.5 percent.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

work done on desk = m g h = 105 * 9.81 * 2.46 = 2534 Joules

Explanation:

so work in = 2534 / 0.875 = 2896 Joules

that is your 648 times distance your hand moved holding the rope

2896 = 648 * x

4.47 meters

I think maybe a typo, 648 N is too big, maybe 64.8 ? Any block and tackle system does better than that.
