Answer:

The Moon does not fall towards Earth right now because Earth rotates itself. The energy from the Earth's own rotation around its axis is gradually tranferred into energy of the Moon's orbital motion. That's why the Earth's rotating speed decreases but the distance to the Moon increases.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

<em>c. ABBA counterbalancing </em>

Explanation:

The student should not use the method because it is a progressive error management technique for each subject by introducing all <em>treatment circumstances twice, first in one sequence, then in the other (AB, BA) by subject counterbalancing.</em>

If participants experience conditions more than once, they experience the conditions first in one order, then the opposite order.

A small sphere is hung by a string from the ceiling of a van. When the van is stationary, the sphere hangs vertically. However,

Paraphin [41]

Answer: 42.49 $m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

To solve this, we need to keep in mind the following:

While the sphere hangs it is under the effect of gravity. It is creating a Angle of 90° taking the roof as a reference.

Gravity can be noted as a Acceleration Vector. The magnitud for Earth's Gravity is a constant: 9.81 $m/s^{2}$

The acceleration of the Van will affect the sphere also, but this accelaration will be on the X-axis and perpendicular to the gravity. Because this two vectors are taking action under the sphere they will create a angle. This angle can be measured as a relation of the two magnitudes.

Tangent (∅) = Opossite Side / Adyacent Side

By trigonometry, we know the previous formula. This formula allows us to find the Tangent of a angle as a relation between the two perpendiculars magnitudes. In this case the Opossite Side will be the Gravity Accelaration, while the Adyancent Side is the Van's Acceleration.

(1) Tangent (∅) = Gravity's Acceleration (G) / Van's Acceleration (Va)

Searching for the Va in (1)

Va = G/Tan(∅)

Where ∅ in this case is equal to 13.0°

Va = 9.81 $m/s^{2}$ / Tan(13.0°)

Va = 42.49 $m/s^{2}$

The vans acceleration need to be 42.49 $m/s^{2}$ to create an angle of 13° with the Van's Roof

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "42.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

(a) 42 N

(b)36.7 N

Explanation:

Nomenclature

F= force test line (N)

W : fish weight (N)

Problem development

(a) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in at constant speed

We apply Newton's first law of equlibrio because the system moves at constant speed:

∑Fy =0

F-W= 0

42N -W =0

W = 42N

(b) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s²

We apply Newton's second law because the system moves at constant acceleration:

m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

∑Fy =m*a

m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

F-W= ( W/9.8 )*a

42-W= ( W/9.8 )*1.41

42= W+0.1439W

42=1.1439W

W= 42/1.1439

W= 36.7 N

How much current will pass through a 12.5 ohm resistor when it is connected to ta 115 volt source of electrical potential?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

9.2 amperes

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that the voltage V across a conductor of resistance R is given by $V = R I$

Here, voltage V is proportional to the current I.

For voltage, unit is volts (V)

For current, unit is amperes (A)

For resistance, unit is Ohms (Ω)

Put R = 12.5 and V = 115 in V=RI

$115=12.5I\\I=\frac{115}{12.5}\\ =9.2\,\,amperes$
