Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

When we eat food, our body gets chemical energy from it. Now, this chemical energy from the food is changed into some different energy forms that is useful to it. They include:

-Chemical to mechanical energy to aid in movement of muscles

- chemical to thermal energy to aid in regulating the body temperature.

- chemical to electrical energy to aid the brain in thinking.

Thus is similar to how a machine converts energy because machines also generate energy after being powered and convert to other forms of energy. For example, an alarm clock converts electrical energy to sound energy, hair dryer converts electrical energy to thermal/heat energy.

Find the value of F1 + F2 + F3.

Dovator [93]

Answer:

F = 0.78[N]

Explanation:

The given values correspond to forces, we must remember or take into account that the forces are vector quantities, that is, they have magnitude and direction. Since we have two X-Y coordinate axes (two-dimensional), we are going to decompose each of the forces into the X & y components.

For F₁

$F_{y}=2[N]$

For F₂

$F_{x}=2*cos(60)\\F_{x}=1[N]\\F_{y}=-2*sin(60)\\F_{y}=-1.73[N]$

For F₃

$F_{x}=-1*sin(60)\\F_{x}=-0.866[N]\\F_{y}=1*cos(60)\\F_{y}=0.5 [N]$

Now we can sum each one of the forces in the given axes:

$F_{x}=1-0.866=0.134[N]\\F_{y}=2-1.73+0.5\\F_{y}=0.77[N]$

Now using the Pythagorean theorem we can find the total force.

$F=\sqrt{(0.134)^{2} +(0.77)^{2}}\\F= 0.78[N]$

A green truck is moving to the right. A red truck is moving to the left with a speed of 6 m/s. The mass of the red truck is 1,00

Contact [7]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of red truck = 1000 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of green truck= 3000 kg

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of red truck = 6 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of green truck

$v$ = Velocity with which they move together = 0

For elastic collision

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =0\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =0\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\frac{1000\times 6}{3000}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-2\ m/s$

Velocity of the green truck is 2 m/s
