Hi there!

$\large\boxed{545N}$

Since the object is being pulled at a constant velocity, the forces must be balanced.

Since there is no movement vertically, we must take into account the horizontal forces. We can also assume a positive acceleration to be in the direction of motion.

The acceleration and force due to gravity on an incline is:

a = gsinФ

F = MgsinФ

∑F = -MgsinФ + T

Since it is getting pulled at a constant velocity, ∑F = 0. So:

0 = -MgsinФ + T

MgsinФ = T

Solve for T by plugging in values. Let g = 10 m/s²

T = (120)(10)sin(27) ≈ 545 N

Answer: An equation is missing in your question below is the missing equation

a) ≈ 8396

b) 150 nm/k

Explanation:

<u>A) Determine the number of Oscillators in the black body</u>

number of oscillators = 8395

attached below is the detailed solution

<u>b) determine the peak wavelength of the black body </u>

Black body temperature = 20,000 K

applying Wien's law / formula

λmax = b / T ------ ( 1 )

T = 20,000 K

b = 3 * 10^6 nm

∴ λmax = 150 nm/k

Answer:

a) b = -5

b) slope = 3/2

Explanation:

a) The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept on the y axis.

Given that y = 3x + b and it passes through the point (2, 1). Hence when x = 2, y = 1. Therefore, substituting for x and y:

1 = 3(2) + b

1 = 6 + b

b = 1 - 6

b = -5

b) The equation of a line passing through two points ( $x_1,y_1$ ) and $x_2,y_2$ is given by:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

The equation of the line passing through the two points (0,3) and (4,9) is:

$y-3=\frac{9-3}{4-0}(x-0)\\ \\y-3=\frac{3}{2}x\\ \\y = \frac{3}{2}x+3$

Comparing y = (3/2)x + 3 with y = mx + b, the slope (m) is 3/2
