A tight knot can be easily opens by using a longer spanner. Give reasons

Physics

It is because the effort distance is greater than the load distance

Explanation:

As we know, Effort×effort distance = load × load distance

So when effort distance is increases,

The effort decreases

So when the spanner’s handle is long

A tight knot can easily be opened by less effrot

I hope it helped

A spring (k = 200 N/m) is fixed at the top of a frictionless plane inclined at angle θ = 33 °. A 1.2 kg block is projected up th
Serga [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial kinetic energy = 29 J

work done against gravity = mgsin33 x d  , m is mass of the block

= 1.2 x 9.8 sin 33 x .9

= 5.76 J

potential energy stored in compressed spring

= 1/2 k x², k is spring constant and x is compression

= .5 x 200 x .3²

= 9

energy left = 29 - ( 5.76 + 9 )

= 14.24 J

b )

energy stored in spring when compression is .4 m

= 1/2 x 200 x .4²

= 16 J

required kinetic energy = 16 + 5.76

= 21.76 J

Block must be projected with energy of 21.76 J .

a thundercloud whose base is 500m above the ground. The potential difference between the base of the cloud and the m ground is 2
kolezko [41]

Answer:

1.6×10⁻⁶ N.

Explanation:

From the question,

F = (V/r)q......................... Equation 1

Where F = Electric force on the raindrop, V = Potential difference between the base of the cloud and the ground, r = distance between the base of the cloud and the ground, q = the charge on a rain drop.

Given: V = 200MV = 200×10⁶ V, r = 500 m, q = 4.0×10⁻¹² C.

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = [(200×10⁶ )/500]×4.0×10⁻¹²

F = 1.6×10⁻⁶ N.

What has alternating electric and magnetic fields that travel in the form of a wave?
8_murik_8 [283]

Option (B)is correct.

Alternating electric and magnetic fields has electromagnetic radiation that travel in the form of a wave.

The varying or alternating electric field produces the varying magnetic field.This varying magnetic field in turn produces varying electric field . Thus these varying electric and magnetic fields travel in the form of electromagnetic waves. These electromagnetic waves travel with the velocity of light.These are transverse in nature.

during a crash, the acceleration was less than 30g. Calculate the force on a 70 kg person accelerating at this rate.
Igoryamba

Answer:

less than 20580 N

Explanation:

According to the newton's second law of motion

Force = mass * acceleration

(assuming gravitational acceleration =9.8 m/s2 )

acceleration = 30*9.8 = 294 m/s2

acting Force = 70 * 294

                     = 20580 N

Since the acceleration was less than 30g  , acting force should also be less than 20580 N
