Answer:

  15.8 N

Explanation:

The component in a given direction is the magnitude of the applied force, multiplied by the cosine of the angle between its application and the direction of interest.

The horizontal component is ...

  (20 N)cos(38°) ≈ 15.8 N

Myopia

Explanation:

myopia is a common vision condition in which you can see objects near to you clearly, but objects farther away are blurry. It occurs when the shape of your eye causes light rays to refract incorrectly, focusing images in front of your retina instead of on your retina. It can be corrected corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery.

A circular radar antenna on a coast guard ship has a diameter of 2.10 m and radiates at a frequency of 16.0 ghz. two small boats
solmaris [256]
By definition,
q = 1.22y/D

Where,
q = min. angle
y = wavelength
D = Aperture diameter = diameter of the antenna

At distance "x" from the antenna,
L =xq = 1.22xy/D
Where, L = Min. distance

But, y =c/f = (3*10^8)/(16*10^9) = 0.01875 m

Substituting;
L = 1.22*5*10^3*0.01875/2.1 = 54.46 m

a football player kicks a ball with a mass of 0.42kg. The average acceleration of the football was 14.8 m/s2. How much force did
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

6.216 N

Explanation:

As for Newton's second law of motion

F=ma

where F= the acting force

           m=subjected mass

           a= the acceleration

applying F=ma to the football

F=m*a

 =0.42*14.8

 =6.216 N

6.216 N of a force is supplied to the ball
