The magnitudes of the forces that the ropes must exert on the knot connecting are :

  • F₁ = 118 N
  • F₂ = 89.21 N
  • F₃ = 57.28 N

<u>Given data :</u>

Mass ( M ) = 12 kg

∅₂ = 63°

∅₃ = 45°

<h3>Determine the magnitudes of the forces exerted by the ropes on the connecting knot</h3><h3 />

a) Force exerted by the first rope = weight of rope

∴  F₁ = mg

     = 12 * 9.81 ≈  118 kg

<u>b) Force exerted by the second rope </u>

applying equilibrium condition of force in the vertical direction

F₂ sin∅₂ + F₃ sin∅₃ - mg = 0  ---- ( 1 )

where: F₃ = ( F₂ cos∅₂ / cos∅₃ ) --- ( 2 )  applying equilibrium condition of force in the horizontal direction

Back to equation ( 1 )

F₂ =  [ ( mg / cos∅₂ ) / tan∅₂ + tan∅₃ ]

   = [ ( 118 / cos 63° ) / ( tan 63° + tan 45° ) ]

   = 89.21 N

<u />

<u>C ) </u><u>Force </u><u>exerted by the</u><u> third rope </u>

Applying equation ( 2 )

F₃ = ( F₂ cos∅₂ / cos∅₃ )

    = ( 89.21 * cos 63 / cos 45 )

    = 57.28 N

Hence we can conclude that The magnitudes of the forces that the ropes must exert on the knot connecting are :

F₁ = 118 N, F₂ = 89.21 N, F₃ = 57.28 N

What does it mean that are bodies are in osmotic equilibrium but chemical and electrical disequilibrium? Why? What molecules are
Whitepunk [10]

Explanation:

The point is that water is moving smoothly but that the solutes are not.Even though the containers are chemically different (chemical disequilibrium), once all the solutes in one container are contrasted to all the solutes in another container, both have the same total solutes concentrations (this means that they are in osmotic balance).

(6.MS-ETS2-1(MA).) The electrons in __________ move about more freely than the electrons in insulators which is why this type of
Tresset [83]

Answer:

A) conductors

Explanation:

A conductor can be defined as any material or object that allows the free flow of current or electrons (charge) in one or more directions in an electrical circuit. Some examples of a conductor are metals, tungsten, copper, aluminum, iron, graphite, etc.

Basically, the main purpose of a conductor in physics is to provide a low-resistance path between electrical circuits or components. This low-resistance path is to ensure that the electrical components allows the free flow of electrons and thus, enabling charge transfer.

Hence, the electrons in conductors move about more freely than the electrons in insulators which is why this type of material can be used to create electric circuits because it would significantly provide a low-resistance path between the electric circuits.

Below is a circuit schematic of sources and resistors (Figure 3). VS = 10V , R1 = 100Ω, R2 = 50Ω, R3 = 25Ω, IS = 2A. Calculate t
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

V_3\approx 4.28\,\,V

I_1=0.0572\,\,amps

I_3\approx 0.171\,\,amps

Explanation:

Notice that this is a circuit with resistors R1 and R2 in parallel, connected to resistor R3 in series. It is what is called a parallel-series combination.

So we first find the equivalent resistance for the two resistors in parallel:

\frac{1}{Re}= \frac{1}{R1}+\frac{1}{R2}\\\frac{1}{Re}= \frac{1}{100}+\frac{1}{50}\\\frac{1}{Re}= \frac{3}{100}\\Re=\frac{100}{3} \,\,\Omega

By knowing this, we can estimate the total current through the circuit,:

Vs=I\,*\,(\frac{100}{3} +25)\\10=I\,*\,\frac{175}{3} \\I=\frac{30}{175} \,amps

So approximately 0.17  amps

and therefore, we can estimate the voltage drop (V3) in R3 uisng Ohm's law:

V_3=\frac{30}{175} *\,25=\frac{30}{7} \approx 4.28\,\,V

So now we know that the potential drop across the parellel resistors must be:

10 V -  4.28 V = 5.72 V

and with this info, we can calculate the current through R1 using Ohm's Law:

I_1=\frac{V_1}{R_1} =\frac{5.72}{100} =0.0572\,\,amps

It is important for physicians to be _____ patient use of alternative therapies.
V125BC [204]
It is important for physicians to be Respectful of patient use of alternative therapies

Alternative therapies usually have not gain a scientific approval from the scientific community, but there are some therapies that show positive results even though it is still has not proved by studies or researches. So it's important for physicians to be respectful if the patient choose to do it
