Answer:

16.64 km/h

Explanation:

Think of the x and y components as the a and b sides of a triangle and simply do the Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2+b^2=c^2

14^2+9^2=c^2

\sqrt{196+81}=c

\sqrt{277}=c

16.64 km/h

What is the reaction force of the table with a weight of 558N
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: reaction force = -558N

Explanation:

w = f = 558N

since action force and reaction force are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction,

reaction force = -(f)

reaction force = -558N

if that helps.

A storm 10.0 km in diameter has wind speeds of 10.0 m/s. What is its angular velocity in radians per second
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The value is w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the storm is  d =  10.0 \  km  =  10 000 \  m

   The wind speed is  v  =  10.0 \  m/s

   

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as

       r =  \frac{d}{2}

=>  r =  \frac{10000}{2}

=>    r =  5000 \ m

Generally the angular velocity is mathematically represented as  

        w= \frac{v}{r}

=>     w= \frac{10}{5000}

=>     w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

When the material left behind has been carried by the glacier from its original location to a new location, this is called what
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Glaciers break rocks because of the thawing and icing of water in rock crevices. These rocks get carried in the glacier. The glaciers move because the base of the glaciers melts ever so slightly due to the weight of the glacier above (pressure reduces the melting point of ice). This smoothens the slipping of the glaciers . When the glaciers get to a warmer place, it melts and the rocks in it are deposited.

Figure shows three blocks that are being pulled along a smooth horizontal surface. The masses of the blocks
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The pulling force F is 200 N

Explanation:

We note that the tension in a rope between two or three blocks is given by the relation;

Where we have;

m₁ → T₁ → m₂ → T₂ → m₃ → F

T_1 = \dfrac{m_1}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3} \times F

T_2 = \dfrac{m_1 + m_2}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3} \times F

m₁ = 2 kg

m₂ = 4 kg

m₃ = 4 kg

T₂ = 120 N

Therefore, by substitution, gives;

2 kg → T₁ → 4 kg → 120 N → 4 kg → F

120 \ N = \dfrac{2 \ kg + 4 \ kg}{2 \ kg+ 4 \ kg+ 4 \ kg} \times F = \dfrac{6 \ kg}{10 \ kg} \times F

F = 120 N × (10 kg)/(6 kg) = 200 N

The pulling force F = 200 N.
