Answer: The correct answer is option(D).

Explanation:

Distance travel by car in north of east = 20 miles

In a triangle ABC

Cos\theta =\frac{BC}{AC}

Cos 30^o=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{BC}{20}

BC=17.32

The east component of the car’s displacement to the nearest tenth of a mile 17.32 miles.

A(n) 93 kg clock initially at rest on a horizontal floor requires a(n) 617 N horizontal force to set it in motion. After the clo
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

\mu_s = 0.676

Explanation:

As we know that the force required to move the clock from rest position must be equal to the maximum limiting friction

So we will have

F = F_f

now we know that

F_f = \mu_s Mg

here we will have

F = 617 N

m = 93 kg

now from above formula we will have

617 = \mu_s (93)(9.81)

\mu_s = 0.676

Manganese-52 has a half-life of 6 days. How many days would a scientist have to wait for the radioactivity to be 12.5% the start
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Let N = N0 where N0 is the number of atoms originally present.

In 6 days    N = N0 / 2

In 12 days   N = N0 / 4

In 18 days   N = N0 / 8    = .125 N0

So it would take 18 days.
