42.9°

Explanation:

Let's assume that the x-axis is aligned with the incline and the positive direction is up the incline. We can then apply Newton's 2nd law as follows:

x:\;\;\;\;F - mg\sin{\theta} = 0\;\;\;\;

\Rightarrow mg\sin{\theta} = F

Note that the net force is zero because the block is moving with a constant speed when the angle of the incline is set at \theta. Solving for the angle, we get

\sin{\theta} = \dfrac{F}{mg}

or

\theta = \sin^{-1}\left(\dfrac{F}{mg}\right)

\;\;\;=  \sin^{-1}\left[\dfrac{34\:\text{N}}{(5.1\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)}\right]

\;\;\;=42.9°

The compass uses a pendulous system to improve?
ivanzaharov [21]

The compass is designed and developed to use a pendulous system to improve horizontality.

<h3>What is a compass?</h3>

A compass can be defined as a scientific instrument that contains a magnetized pointer, which is used to show and indicate the following four (4) main cardinal directions:

  • North (N)
  • South (S)
  • West (W)
  • East (E)

Basically, the compass is a scientific instrument that's designed and developed to use a pendulous system to improve horizontality.

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

a) 5.197rev/s

b) Kf/Ki =2.28

Explanation:

a) Angular momentum of the system L = Iw

ButLi=Lf

Kiwi =Ifwf

wf = (Ii/If)will = (4.65/3.4)×3.8=5.197rev/s

b)Kinetic energy KE= 0.5Iw^2

Ki = 0.5Iiwi^2

Kf=0.5Ifwf^2

Kf/Ki = Ifwf/Iiwi

Kf/Ki = (4.65/3.4))(5.197/3.8)

Kf/Ki = 1.22(1.368)^2

Kf/Ki = 2.28

With the switch closed, how does the voltage across the 20-ω resistor compare to the voltage across the 10-ω resistor?
jasenka [17]
In electricity, the most famous and basic equation is the Ohm's Law which relates the parameters voltage, current and resistance. One form of this law as written in equation is V = IR, where V is the voltage in volts, I is the current in amperes and R is the resistance in ohms. These parameters depends in the arrangements, whether it's series or parallel.

In a series connection, the voltage is greater across a high-resistance resistor. Therefore, the voltage is much greater for the 20-ohm resistor. However,if it is a parallel circuit, the voltage is just the same for both resistors.
