Answer:

a)  F = 64.30 N,  b) θ = 121.4º

Explanation:

Forces are vector quantities so one of the best methods to add them is to decompose each force and add the components

let's use trigonometry

Force F1

          sin 170 = F_{1y} / F₁

          cos 170 = F₁ₓ / F₁

          F_{1y} = F₁ sin 170

          F₁ₓ = F₁ cos 170

          F_{1y} = 100 sin 170 = 17.36 N

          F₁ₓ = 100 cos 170 = -98.48 N

Force F2

          sin 30 = F_{2y} / F₂

          cos 30 = F₂ₓ / F₂

          F_{2y} = F₂ sin 30

          F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 30

          F_{2y} = 75 sin 30 = 37.5 N

          F₂ₓ = 75 cos 30 = 64.95 N

the resultant force is

X axis

          Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ

          Fₓ = -98.48 +64.95

          Fₓ = -33.53 N

Y axis

         F_y = F_{1y} + F_{2y}

         F_y = 17.36 + 37.5

         F_y = 54.86 N

a) the magnitude of the resultant vector

let's use Pythagoras' theorem

         F = Ra Fx ^ 2 + Fy²

         F = Ra 33.53² + 54.86²

         F = 64.30 N

b) the direction of the resultant

let's use trigonometry

        tan θ’= F_y / Fₓ

        θ'= tan^{-1}  \frac{F_y}{F_x}

        θ'= tan⁻¹ (54.86 / (33.53)

        θ’= 58.6º

this angle is in the second quadrant

The angle measured from the positive side of the x-axis is

        θ = 180 -θ'

        θ = 180- 58.6

        θ = 121.4º

A manufacturer claims its cleanser works twice as fast as any other. Could test be performed to support the claim? Explain
lora16 [44]

Yes, a test could be performed to support the claim.

 

Hypothesis: The claim that a manufacturer’s cleanser works twice as fast as any other cleanser.

 

So, based from this hypothesis, we can perform the following tests:

We assign Cleanser A to the manufacturer that claims that their cleanser works twice as fast as any other cleanser and Cleanser B to the cleanser to be compared with.

 

1.       Get two tiles and put the same amount of stain on them.

2.       Apply Cleanser A on the first tile and Cleanser B on the second tile.

3.       Apply the same amount of force in removing the stains on both tiles

4.       Record the amount of time it takes to remove the stains on each tile.

In mechanics, massless strings are often assumed. Why is that not a good assumption when discussing waves on strings?
Marizza181 [45]

In mechanics, massless strings are often assumed. but this is not a good assumption when discussing waves on strings because the speed of a wave on a massless string would be infinite.

<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>

It should be noted that waves simply means the dynamic disturbance of a quantity.

There is a bell at the top of a tower that is 95 m high. The mass of the bell is 21 kg. What is the potential energy of the bell
melomori [17]

Answer:

19,551 J!

Explanation:

The formula is PE = ham (h=height, a= acceleration or 9.8, m= mass)

PE = (95)(9.8)(21)

PE = 19,551 Joules

Please answer question 6.5 with an explanation <br> Thank you

Low-energy light bulbs also save money in the long run.

<h3>Mathematical operations</h3>

Cost of 1 low-energy bulb = 400 P

Cost of 1 filament buld = 50 P

Cost of electricity for 1 hour for low-energy bulbs = 0.2 p

Cost of electricity for 1 hour for filament bulb = 1.0 p

Total cost of electricity for 10,000 hours for low-energy bulb:

                              10,000 x 0.2 p = 2,000 p

Total cost of electricity for 10,000 hours for filament bulb:

                10,000 x 1.0 = 10,000 p

Total cost of low-energy bulb + electricity = 2,000 + 400

                                                        = 2,400 p

Total cost of filament bulb + electricity = 10,000 + 50

                                                                = 10, 050 p

Thus, low-energy bulbs may have an initial higher cost, but they save a significant amount of money in the long run.

Which apparatus Is used to determine the volume of a small block of unknown material
Aleks04 [339]

Options are;

A: measuring cylinder, metre rule

B: measuring cylinder, stopwatch

C: metre rule, balance

D: metre rule, stopwatch

Answer:

A: measuring cylinder, metre rule

Explanation:

Usually, when measuring volume of a small material, we make use of a piece of laboratory apparatus known as measuring cylinder which is also known as graduated cylinder.

Since it is a graduated cylinder, it means we will make use of metre rule.

Thus, the correct option is option A.
