A force of 1.00 x 10^2 pounds acts at an angle of 60.0° to the x-axis. (The force is accurate to 3 significant figures.) What ar
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Fx= 50.0 Pounds : Components of the force along the x-axis

Fy= 86.6 Pounds : Component of the force along the y-axis

Explanation:

Conceptual Analysis

To find the components (Fx, Fy) of the total force (F), we apply the trigonometric concepts for a right triangle, where the perpendicular sides of the triangle are the components (Fx, Fy) of the force (F), the hypotenuse (h) is the magnitude of the total force F and β is the angle that forms the horizontal component with the hypotenuse.

Formulas

cos β : x/h  :    x: side adjacent to the β angle  h: hypotenuse  (1)

sin β = y/h  :    y: side opposite to the β angle  h: hypotenuse  (2)

Known Data

Known data

F= 1.00 * 10² pounds  = 100 pounds :  magnitude of total force

β =  60.0° to the x-axis. : Angle that forms the force with the x-axis

Problem Development

We apply the formula 1 to calculate horizontal component (Fx)

cos β :Fx/F

Fx= F cosβ  = 100*cos 60° = 50.0 Pounds

We apply the formula 2 to calculate vertical component (Fy)

sin β = Fy/F

Fy= F sinβ = 100*sin 60° = 86.6 Pounds

Taxonomy: the techniques of describing,naming and classifying living organisms on the basis of similarities and dissimilarities

Prokaryote: prokaryotes were the earliest living organisms which are unicellular having a primitive nucleus i.e they don’t have a true nucleus

Virus: viruses are non cellular parasitic entities. They cannot live or reproduce outside of living cells since they lack machinery to do so by themselves. They range in size from 20nm to 250nm

Common transparent tape becomes charged when pulled from a dispenser. If one piece is placed above another, the repulsive force
liraira [26]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the equal charges be Q .

Force between charges = k Q² / R where R is distance between charges , k = 9 x 10⁹.

Putting the charges

Force F = 9 x 10⁹ x Q² /( .72 x 10⁻²)²

= 17.36 x 10¹³ Q² N

This force equals weight so

17.36 x 10¹³ Q² = 15.7 x 10⁻³

Q² = .90 x 10⁻¹⁶

Q = .95 x 10⁻⁸

= 9.5 x 10⁻⁹

= 9.5 nC.
