horizontal component = Fx = F cos α

vertical component = Fy = F sin α

the horizontal component of the force on the box:

\tt =20\times cos~38^o\\\\=\boxed{\bold{15.76~N}}

A spaceship departs from Earth for the star Alpha Centauri, which is 4.37 light-years away. The spaceship travels at 0.70c. 1) W
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Time = 6.243 years = (1.97 × 10⁸) s

Explanation:

Speed = (Distance)/(Time)

Time = (Distance)/(Speed)

Distance = 4.37 light years = 4.37 × c × years

Time = (4.37 c.years)/(0.7c)

Time = 6.243 years = (1.97 × 10⁸) s

Hope this Helps!!!

Why is it important for coastal areas exposed to destructive forces to be aware of the effects of these forces?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

the answer should be in the explanation

Explanation:

Volcanic Eruption

Cracks in the earth’s crust are called faults. Volcanoes and earthquakes usually occur along these faults. A volcanic eruption can lead to landslides, ash falls, mud-flows, pyroclastic flows (can burn everything in their way), and steam explosions. okay for example volcanoes people have to keep a close eye out when they live by an active search up valcanic damage and you will see what i mean

Which statement accurately describes the relationship between force and momentum?
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Force, on the other hand, is the push or pull that is applied to an object to CHANGE its momentum. Newton's second law of motion defines force as the product of mass times ACCELERATION (vs. velocity). you can connect the two concepts with the following relationship: force = mass x (velocity / time) = (mass x velocity) / time = momentum / time
