horizontal clothesline is tied between 2 poles, 14 meters apart. When a mass of 3 kilograms is tied to the middle of the clothes

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The tension is $T = 103.96N$

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the question is shown on the first uploaded image From the question we are told that

The distance between the two poles is $D =14 m$

The mass tied between the two cloth line is $m = 3Kg$

The distance it sags is $d_s = 1m$

The objective of this solution is to obtain the magnitude of the tension on the ends of the clothesline

Now the sum of the forces on the y-axis is zero assuming that the whole system is at equilibrium

And this can be mathematically represented as

$\sum F_y = 0$

To obtain $\theta$ we apply SOHCAHTOH Rule

So $Tan \theta = \frac{opp}{adj}$

$\theta = tan^{-1} [\frac{opp}{adj} ]$

$= tan^{-1} [\frac{1}{7}]$

$=8.130^o$

$=> \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 2T sin\theta -mg =0$

$=> \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ T =\frac{mg}{2 sin\theta}$

$=> \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ T = \frac{3 * 9.8 }{2 sin \theta }$

$=> \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ T =\frac{29.4}{2sin(8.130)}$

$=> \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ T = 103.96N$

A sailboat runs before the wind with a constant speed of 2.8 m/s in a direction 52° north of west. How far (a) west and (b) nort

vodka [1.7K]

<h2>Displacement along west = 3612 m</h2><h2>Displacement along north = 4633.50 m</h2>

Explanation:

Let east be positive x axis and north be positive y axis

Velocity of boat = 2.8 m/s in a direction 52° north of west.

Velocity, v = -2.8 cos 52 i + 2.8 sin 52 j = -1.72 i + 2.21 j m/s

Time taken = 35 min = 35 x 60 = 2100 s

Displacement = Velocity x Time

Displacement = (-1.72 i + 2.21 j) x 2100

Displacement = -3612 i + 4633.50 j m

Displacement along west = 3612 m

Displacement along north = 4633.50 m

Which statement about gravity is true?

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Out of the given options, ‘it is described as a fundamental force and therefore does not depend on other forces’ is the true statement about gravity.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

As we all know that there are four fundamental forces existing in the universe- Electromagnetic force, strong forces, weak forces and the gravitational force.

These are the forces that don’t depend on any other physical force to draw a considerable impact on the physical objects. The gravitational force can be defined as,

$F=G \times \frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Where,

G = Gravitational Constant

$m_{1} , m_{2}$ = Masses of two substances under consideration

R = distance between the two substances.

Looking upon the formula of gravitational force we can easily estimate that the gravitational force relies on the mass of substances and the relative distance between them. There is no factor than the air friction that hinders the gravitational force and that too in a negligible amount.

Radio wave radiation falls in the wavelength region of 10.0 to 1000 meters. What is the energy of radio wave radiation that has

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Wavelength of radiation $\lambda =784\ m$

We know Energy of wave with wavelength $\lambda$ is given by

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }$

where h=Planck's constant

c=velocity of light

$\lambda$ =wavelength of wave

$E=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{784}$

$E=2.53\times 10^{-28}\ J$

Hence the energy of the wave with wavelength 784 m is $2.53\times 10^{-28}\ J$
