Available options are:

A. –4500 N

B. –2500 N

C. 2500 N

D. 4500 N

Answer:

-4500 N

Explanation:

Given that we have F₁ = 3000N? (force of the barge)

the force of the tugboat is F '

To pull the barge, the force of the tugboat must be greater than or equal to the force of the barge.

Hence, according to Newton's third law which states that for every action or force in nature, there is an opposite reaction.

Therefore considering the available option the correct answer is "- 4500N, " this is because it is greater than the force of the barge and it's in opposition to the force exerted.

Answer:

Measurements are an important part of comparing things, as they provide the basis on comparing objects to other objects. Measurements allow us to recognize three hours and see how it's shorter than five hours, without having to observe the hours passing by themselves.

Air "breaks down" when the electric field strength reaches 3 × 106 n/c, causing a spark. A parallel-plate capacitor is made from

Lera25 [3.4K]

Electric field between the plates of parallel plate capacitor is given as

$E = \frac{Q}{A\epsilon_0}$

here area of plates of capacitor is given as

$A = 0.055 * 0.055$

$A = 3.025 * 10^{-3}$

also the maximum field strength is given as

$E = 3 * 10^6 N/C$

now we will plug in all data to find the maximum possible charge on capacitor plates

$3 * 10^6 = \frac{Q}{3.025 * 10^{-3}*8.85 * 10^{-12}}$

$Q = 8.03 * 10^{-8} C$

so the maximum charge that plate will hold will be given by above

What is the moment of inertia of an object that rolls without slipping down a 2.00-m-high incline starting from rest, and has a

Paha777 [63]

$E = mgh + \frac{1}2} m v^{2} + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^{2} = mgh + \frac{1}2} m r ^{2} \omega ^{2} + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^{2}$

for a solid cylinder: $I = \frac{1}{2} m r^{2}$
for a hollow cylinder: $I = mr^{2}$

I will look at the case of a hollow cylinder:

$E = mgh + I \omega ^{2} = constant \\ \\ I = \frac{mgh}{ \omega^{2} }$

That is as far as i get.
