a father pulls his young daughter on a sled (where the combined mass of his daughter and the sled are 40 kg) with a constant vel

ocity up a snowy hill that is inclined at 14 to the horizontal. a) if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled's runners and the snow is 0.15, what is the tension force of the rope on which the father pulls

Answer:

Explanation:

We are not told what angle the pull rope is to any other reference. That could make a huge difference in the result.

If we ASSUME that the rope pulls parallel to the slope

Then , if T is rope tension

                                  F = ma

T - mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = m(0)

                                 T = mg(sinθ + μcosθ)

                                 T = 40(9.8)(sin14 + 0.15cos14)

                                 T = 151.88677... 150 N

If the rope pulls the sled at a positive angle relative to the slope, As one might expect from an adult holding the rope, then the tension will be increased because only the Tension portion parallel to the slope causes motion in that direction, but will be decreased because the Normal force, and therefore the friction force, of the slope on the sled will be decreased.

What is non-point source pollution, and why is this kind of pollution hard to monitor and control?
antoniya [11.8K]

The use of pesticides in farming land is example of non-point source pollution. The area of emitting of pollution is very large. That is why, it is difficult to monitor and control this type of pollution.

Americans get their water for everyday use through aquifer. Aquifers can be conserve by avoiding high amount of chemical uses and reducing household waste. Also the sustainable use of water cause conservation of natural resource.

Aquifer are basically underground water present in ground pores. The structure of aquifer just look like sponge. The water moves through the porous surfaces of the ground.

An atom with the expected number of neutrons, protons, and electrons is called a(n)
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Stable atom

Explanation:

A stable atom is one that has a balanced nuclear inter-particle force reaction as such the binding energy of a stable atom is sufficient to permanently keep the nucleus as one unit. Examples of a stable atom are the atoms of  monoisotopic elements such as fluorine, sodium, iodine, gold, aluminium, and cobalt.

In a stable atom the expected number of proton, neutron, and electron are present while in an unstable atom or radioactive atom, there are more than the expected number of neutrons or protons, such that the internal energy of the nucleus is excessive and more than the binding energy, which can lead to radioactive decay.

Paul lifts a sack weighing 245 newtons vertically from the ground and places it on a platform at a height of 0.7 meters. If he t
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

B. 17.15 watts

Explanation:

Given that

Time = 10 seconds

height = distance = 0.7 meters

weight of sack = mg = F = 245 newtons

Power = work done/ time taken

Where work done = force × distance

Substituting the given parameters into the formula

Work done = 245 newton × 0.7 meters

Work done = 171.5 J

Recall,

Power = work done/time

Power = 171.5 J ÷ 10

Power = 17.15 watts

Hence the power expended is B. 17.15 watts

By quadrupling the mass of the body hanging on the thread what will become the period of oscillation?​
nikklg [1K]

Well, the tension in the thread will probably quadruple, but the hanging body will continue to just hang there.  

The question gives us no evidence that it is doing any oscillating, and there's no reason for it to start just because it suddenly got heavier.
