We have to convert 12.7nm to cm

\\ \sf\longmapsto 12.7nm

\\ \sf\longmapsto 12.7\times 10^{-9}m

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.127\times 10^{-7}m

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.00000127\times 10^{-2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.0000013cm

The resistivity of a silver wire with a radius of 5.04 × 10–4 m is 1.59 × 10–8 ω · m. if the length of the wire is 3.00 m, what
Alexxx [7]
<span>5.98 x 10^-2 ohms. Resistance is defined as: R = rl/A where R = resistance in ohms r = resistivity (given as 1.59x10^-8) l = length of wire. A = Cross sectional area of wire. So plugging into the formula, the known values, including the area of a circle being pi*r^2, gives: R = 1.59x10^-8 * 3.00 / (pi * (5.04 x 10^-4)^2) R = (4.77 x 10^-8) / (pi * 2.54016 x 10 ^-7) R = (4.77 x 10^-8) / (7.98015 x 10^-7) R = 5.98 x 10^-2 ohms So that wire has a resistance of 5.98 x 10^-2 ohms.</span>

In a particular beam of radiation, which is traveling in a vacuum, the amounts of energy per second at an ultraviolet wavelength
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: d)

Explanation: In order to justify the answer we have to consider that the energy of photons directely depent on the frequency so the energy is inverselly dependent of the wavelegth.

If both beams have the same power, this means Energy/time so the number of photons per second must be different. As consequence a) is wrong as  b) since it is not posible since UV photon  have more energy that IR photons. c) It is no necessary know the frequency since the wavelength is related in the form:

c=λν  c is the speed of light, λ the wavelegth and ν the frequency.

d) Certainly will be more more IR photons than UV photons to get the same beam power.

The quadriceps muscles pull on the patella simultaneously. Below are the forces from each
Nostrana [21]

Based on the calculation of the resultant of vector forces:

  1. the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1795 N
  2. the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1975 N. Training and strengthening the vastus medialis results in a greater force of muscle contraction.

<h3>What is the resultant force due to the quadriceps?</h3>

The resultant of more than two vector forces is given by:

  • F = √Fₓ² + Fₙ²

where:

  • Fₓ is the sum of the horizontal components of the forces
  • Fₙ is the sum of the vertical components of the forces
  • Fx = F₁cosθ + F₂cosθ + F₃cosθ + F₄cosθ
  • Fₙ = F₁sinθ + F₂sinθ + F₃sinθ + F₄sinθ
  • F₁ = 680N, θ = 90 = 30 = 120°
  • F₂ = 220 N, θ = 90 + 16 = 106°
  • F₃ = 600 N, θ = 90 + 15 = 105°
  • F₄ = 480 N, θ = 90 - 35 = 55°

then:

Fx = 680 * cos 120 + 220 * cos 106 + 600 * cos 105 + 480 * cos 55

Fx = -280.6 N

Fₙ = 680 * sin 120 + 220 * sin 106 + 600 * sin 105 + 480 * sin 55

Fₙ = 1773.1 N

then:

F = √(-280.6)² + ( 1773.1)²

F = 1795.16 N

F ≈ 1795 N

Therefore, the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1795 N

<h3>What would happen if the vastus medialis was trained and strengthened to contract with 720N of force?</h3>

From the new information provided:

  • F₁ = 680N, θ = 90 = 30 = 120°
  • F₂ = 220 N, θ = 90 + 16 = 106°
  • F₃ = 600 N, θ = 90 + 15 = 105°
  • F₄ = 720 N, θ = 90 - 35 = 55°

then:

Fx = 680 * cos 120 + 220 * cos 106 + 600 * cos 105 + 720 * cos 55

Fx = -142.95 N

Fₙ = 680 * sin 120 + 220 * sin 106 + 600 * sin 105 + 720 * sin 55

Fₙ = 1969.72 N

then:

F = √(-142.95)² + ( 1969.72)²

F = 1974.9 N

F ≈ 1975 N

Therefore, the resultant force due to the quadriceps is 1975 N.

Training and strengthening the vastus medialis results in a greater force of muscle contraction.

A mountain climber, in the process of crossing between two cliffs by a rope, pauses to rest. She weighs 514 N. As the drawing sh
n200080 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

T_L = 155.4 N

Part b)

T_R = 379 N

Explanation:

As we know that mountain climber is at rest so net force on it must be zero

So we will have force balance in X direction

T_L cos65 = T_R cos80

T_L = 0.41 T_R

now we will have force balance in Y direction

mg = T_L sin65 + T_Rsin80

514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985T_R

Part a)

so from above equations we have

514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985(\frac{T_L}{0.41})

514 = 3.3 T_L

T_L = 155.4 N

Part b)

Now for tension in right string we will have

T_R = \frac{T_L}{0.41}

T_R = 379 N
