Answer:

Explanation:

A

35 N  Small Dog <=======BONE=========> Bigger Dog 42 N

B

Fnet = Large Dog - small dog The forces are subtracted because they are acting in opposite Directions.

Fnet = 42 - 35

Fnet = 7 N

C

m = 2.5 kg

F = 7 N

a = ?

F = m * a

7 = 2.5 a

a = 7 / 2.5

a = 2.8 m/s^2

Given vectors D (3.00 m, 315 degrees wrt x-axis) and E (4.50 m, 53.0 degrees wrt x-axis), find the resultant R= D + E. (a) Write
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

  • R = ( 4.831 m , 1.469 m )
  • Magnitude of R = 5.049 m
  • Direction of R relative to the x axis= 16°54'33'

Explanation:

Knowing the magnitude and directions relative to the x axis, we can find the Cartesian representation of the vectors using the formula

\vec{A}= | \vec{A} | \ ( \ cos(\theta) \ , \ sin (\theta) \ )

where | \vec{A} | its the magnitude and θ.

So, for our vectors, we will have:

\vec{D}= 3.00 m \ ( \ cos(315) \ , \ sin (315) \ )

\vec{D}=  ( 2.121 m , -2.121 m )

and

\vec{E}= 4.50 m \ ( \ cos(53.0) \ , \ sin (53.0) \ )

\vec{E}= ( 2.71 m , 3.59 m )

Now, we can take the sum of the vectors

\vec{R} = \vec{D} + \vec{E}

\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m , -2.121 \ m ) + ( 2.71 \ m , 3.59 \ m )

\vec{R} = ( 2.121 \ m  + 2.71 \ m , -2.121 \ m + 3.59 \ m )

\vec{R} = ( 4.831 \ m , 1.469 \ m )

This is R in Cartesian representation, now, to find the magnitude we can use the Pythagorean theorem

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{(4.831 m)^2 + (1.469 m)^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{23.338 m^2 + 2.158 m^2}

|\vec{R}| = \sqrt{25.496 m^2}

|\vec{R}| = 5.049 m

To find the direction, we can use

\theta = arctan(\frac{R_y}{R_x})

\theta = arctan(\frac{1.469 \ m}{4.831 \ m})

\theta = arctan(0.304)

\theta = 16\°54'33''

As we are in the first quadrant, this is relative to the x axis.

A ladder rests against a vertical wall at a point 12 feet from the floor. The angle formed by the ladder and the floor is 63°. C
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

length of the ladder is 13.47 feet

base of wall to latter distance 6.10 feet

angle between ladder and the wall is 26.95°

Explanation:

given data

height h  = 12 feet

angle 63°

to find out

length of the ladder ( L) and length of wall to ladder ( A) and angle between  ladder and the wall

solution

we consider here angle between base of wall and floor is right angle

we apply here trigonometry rule that is

sin63 = h/L

put here value

L = 12 / sin63

L = 13.47

so length of the ladder is 13.47 feet

and

we can say

tan 63 = h / A

put here value

A = 12 / tan63

A = 6.10

so base of wall to latter distance 6.10 feet

and

we say here

tanθ = 6.10 / 12

θ = 26.95°

so angle between ladder and the wall is 26.95°

What does basketballs have inside of it
FrozenT [24]
Hi there!

Great question!

Basketballs have air inside them. A special pump is used to insert the air. That's why you can lift the basketballs off the ground easily. If it was a solid, though, you'd hardly be able to lift the ball up! Basketballs can float, too, because anything with air inside can float. If it were solid, it would sink in the water easily.

Hope this helps! :D

Describe how an electromagnet can be switched on and off.​
Phoenix [80]

Answer:The magnetic field around an electromagnet is just the same as the one around a bar magnet. It can, however, be reversed by turning the battery around. Unlike bar magnets, which are permanent magnets, the magnetism of electromagnets can be turned on and off just by closing or opening the switch.
