Magnitudes are measured by intensity so a 3.4 earthquake is much less stronger than a 4.5 earthquake it’s very literally when measuring them the higher the number the stronger it is

The resultant of two forces acting on the same point simultaneously will be the greatest when the angle between them is:a) 180 d
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

0 degrees

Explanation:

Let F_1\ and\ F_2 are two forces. The resultant of two forces acting on the same point is given by :

F_R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2\ cos\theta}

Where \theta is the angle between two forces

When \theta=0 i.e. when two forces are parallel to each other,

F_R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2\ cos(0)}

F_R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2}

When \theta=90^{\circ} i.e. when two forces are parallel to each other,

F_R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+F_1F_2\ cos(90)}

F_R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2}

When \theta=180^{\circ} i.e. when two forces are parallel to each other,

F_R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+F_1F_2\ cos(180)}

F_R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2-2F_1F_2}

It is clear that the resultant of two forces acting on the same point simultaneously will be the greatest when the angle between them is 0 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

For your senior project, you would like to build a cyclotron that will accelerate protons to 10% of the speed of light. The larg
viva [34]

Answer:

The magnetic field is 1.16 T.  

Explanation:

speed, v = 10% of speed of light = 3 x 10^7 m/s

diameter, d = 54 cm

radius, r = 0.27 m

charge, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

mass, m = 1.67 x 10^-27 kg

Let the magnetic field is B.

The centripetal force is balanced by the magnetic force.  

qvB=\frac{mv^2}{r}\\\\B =\frac{mv}{qr}\\\\B =\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 3\times 10^{7}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.27}\\\\B =1.16 T

Compare the current in the 8-ohm resistors to the current in the 4-ohm resistors.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

a)   i₈ = 0.5 i₄,  b)   i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃,    i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈

Explanation:

For this exercise we use ohm's law

       V = i R

        i = V / R

we assume that the applied voltage is the same in all cases

let's find the current for each resistance

         

R = 4 Ω

         i₄ = V / 4

R = 8 Ω

         i₈ = V / 8

we look for the relationship between these two currents

         i₈ /i₄ = 4/8 = ½

         i₈ = 0.5 i₄

R = 3 Ω

        i₃ = V3

R = 10 Ω

         

        i₁₀ = V / 10

   

we look for relationships

       i₁₀ / 1₃ = 3/10

       i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃

       i₁₀ / 1₈ = 8/10

       i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈
