Answer:

B

Explanation:

Formula

Mechanical advantage = length of the ramp / height

Givens

Length of the ramp = 8

Mechanical advantage = 2

height = ?

Solution

2 = 8feet / height                                  Multiply both sides by height

2* height = 8 feet * height / height      Combine

2* height  = 8 feet                                 Divide by 2

2*height/2 = 8 feet/2                              

height = 4 feet.

An electron moves with velocity v⃗ =(5.8i−6.7j)×104m/s in a magnetic field B⃗ =(−0.81i+0.60j)T.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Fₓ = 0,  F_{y} = 0  and  F_{z}<em> = - 3.115 10⁻¹⁵   N</em>

Explanation:

The magnetic force given by the expression

       F = q v xB

the bold are vectors,  the easiest analytical way to determine this force in solving the determinant

   F = q \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\5.8&-6.7&0\\-0.81&0.6&0\end{array}\right]  10^{4}

   F = 1.6 10⁻¹⁵ [ i( 0-0) + j (0-0) + k^( 5.8 0.60 - 0.81 67) ]

   F =i^0 + j^0   - k^  3.115 10⁻¹⁵   N

   

Fₓ = 0

F_{y} = 0

F_{z}<em> = - 3.115 10⁻¹⁵   N</em>

If you pull a resistant puppy with its leash in a horizontal direction, it takes 80 N to get it going. You can then keep it movi
netineya [11]

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the puppy and the floor is 0.7273.

Explanation:

The horizontal force applied to move the puppy from a steady state has to be greater than the force of static friction, after it is moving the force needs to be equal to be greater than the force of dynamic friction in order to maintain its movement. The force of static friction is given by:

F_s = \mu_s*N

Where F_s is the static friction force, \mu_s is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force. Since there's no angle on the flor the normal force is equal to the weight of the puppy, therefore, N = 110\text{ N}, to make the puppy moving we need to use a force of 80 N, therefore, F_s = 80 \text{ N}, so we can solve for the coefficient as shown below:

80 = \mu_s*110\\\mu_s = \frac{80}{110} = 0.7273\\

The coefficient of static friction between the puppy and the floor is 0.7273.

5. A man in a car is listening to the radio. The radio station is broadcasting at a frequency of 85 MHz from two radio transmitt
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Speed = 0.00392 m/s

Explanation:

Solution:

Frequency of the radio = 85 MHz

If we have the frequency, we can calculate the wavelength of the radio wave.

As we know,

Frequency = speed of light/wavelength

wavelength = c/f

c = speed of light = 3 x 10^{8} m/s

So,

Wavelength =  3 x 10^{8} m/s / 85 x 10^{6} Hz

Wavelength = 3.5294 m

Man gets disturbed reception at t = 15 min

t = 15 x 60 = 900 s

t = 900 s

Speed = distance/time

Here, distance is wavelength. So,

Speed =  3.5294 m / 900 s

Speed = 0.00392 m/s

Hence, the man's car is going with speed of 0.00392 m/s
