Answer:

15.76N

Explanation:

horizontal component =Fcos¢ = 20cos38 = 15.76N

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}}

What % of an object’s mass is above the water line if the object’s density is 0.82g/ml?
Sladkaya [172]

To develop this problem we will apply the Archimedes model. As well as the definitions of Weight based on mass and acceleration. The first in turn will be considered under the relationship of Density and Volume. From the values given we have to:

\rho_w =1 g/mL \rightarrow \text{Water Density}

\rho_o = 0.82g/mL \rightarrow \text{Object density}

Since it is in equilibrium, the weight of the object will have a reaction from the water, which will cause the sum of forces between the two objects to be zero, therefore

\sum F= 0

F_w-F_o = 0

F_w = F_o

m_w g = m_og

\rho_w V_w g = \rho_o V_o g

The value of gravity is canceled because it is a constant

\frac{V_w}{V_o} = \frac{\rho_o}{\rho_w}

\frac{V_w}{V_o} = \frac{0.82}{1}

\frac{V_w}{V_o} = 0.82

The portion of the object that is submerged corresponds to 82%, while the portion that is visible, above the water level will be 18%

An object is thrown with velocity v from the edge of a cliff above level ground. Neglect air resistance. In order for the object
musickatia [10]

Answer:

(C) greater than zero but less than 45° above the horizontal

Explanation:

The range of a projectile is given by R = v²sin2θ/g.

For maximum range, sin2θ = 1 ⇒ 2θ = sin⁻¹(1) = 90°

2θ = 90°

θ = 90°/2 = 45°

So the maximum horizontal distance R is in the range 0 < θ < 45°, if θ is the angle above the horizontal.
