a truss is made by hinging two uniform, 150-N rafters as shown in Fig. 5-21. They rest on an essentially frictionless floor and

are held together by a tie rope. A 500-N load is held at their apex. Find the tension in the tie rope.

<span>Let L and R represent the left and right vertical reactions on the floor
let T signify the tension in the rope
 the total force must equal zero

R + L - 500 - 150 - 150 = 0

R + L = 800

 given that the triangle formed is isosceles, the legs must be equal
R = L = 400 N

by applying the torque summation

L [ 4] - T[ 3 - (2 *3/5)] = 0
400 [ 4] - T[ 1.8] = 0
T = 1600/1.8
T = 889 N </span>

State two advantages of a lead-acid accumulator over a leclanche cell​
kicyunya [3294]

Respuesta:

Se pueden recargar.

Poseen una vida útil mayor.

Son reutilizables.

Explicación:

Las baterías de plomo-ácido y las pilas Leclanché son tipos de células electroquímicas.

Las pilas Leclanché son células primarias. Estas células producen reacciones químicas que generan corriente eléctrica de manera irreversible.

Por su parte, las baterías de plomo-ácido son células secundarias que permiten la reversibilidad de la corriente eléctrica generada.

Esto hace que las baterías de plomo-ácido sean reutilizables, con mayor durabilidad y un tiempo de vida más prolongado.

Determine the sign (+ or −) of the torque about the elbow caused by the biceps, τbiceps, the sign of the weight of the forearm,
Sav [3153]
1. τbiceps = +(Positive) 2. τforearm = -(Negative) 3. τball = -(Negative) Explanation: The attached figure illustrates the following: 1. For the biceps, τbiceps indicates that torque is calculated as Torque = r x F, where r and F are vectors. Here, r corresponds to the vector from the elbow to the biceps. In the figure, the force from the biceps is directed upwards. Applying the right-hand rule from r to F results in counterclockwise torque, which is considered positive (+). 2. The torque related to the weight of the forearm, τforearm, uses the same torque formula, with r being the vector from the elbow to the forearm. The weight acts downward, causing a clockwise torque that is negative (-). 3. Similarly, for the weight of the ball, τball, the downward force from the ball's weight generates a clockwise torque, which also registers as negative (-).

The electric field must be zero inside a conductor in electrostatic equilibrium, but not inside an insulator. It turns out that
serg [3582]

Response:

Reasoning:

We will utilize a Gaussian surface that resembles the curved wall of a cylinder, with a radius of 3mm and a length of 1 unit directed parallel to the wire axis.

The charge within this cylinder amounts to 250 x 10⁻⁹ C.

Let E denote the electric field at the curved surface, perpendicular to it.

The total electric flux leaving the curved surface

is calculated as 2π r x 1 x E

or 2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³ E

According to Gauss's law, the total flux is given by the charge within divided by ε (the charge inside the cylinder being 250 x 10⁻⁹C)

equals 250 x 10⁻⁹ / 2.5 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²   (where ε = 2.5 ε₀ = 2.5 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²)

resulting in 11.3 x 10³ weber.

Thus,

2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³ E = 11.3 x 10³

E =  11.3 x 10³ /  2 x 3.14 x 3 x 10⁻³

=.599 x 10⁶ N /C.

A 6V radio with a current of 2A is turned on for 5 minutes. Calculate the energy transferred in joules
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

R=V/I=6/2=3 ohm

time = 5 minutes = 5*60=300 seconds

I=2 A

Energy = I²Rt=(2)²*3*300=4*900=3600 J

A 2.1 × 103 kg car starts from rest at the top of a driveway that is sloped at an angle of 20.0° with the horizontal. An average
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

The driveway measures 4.98 m

Explanation:

We aim to find the length of the driveway, thus utilizing the following equations

W=ΔK.E    where W represents work and  ΔK.E   indicates the change in kinetic energy

Moreover,

K.E = \frac{ MV^2}{2}also

W = F.d  where F is the force and d denotes distance

Given that

= 4000 N indicating this frictional force

F_{f} m = 2100 Kg  

θ= 20.0°  

V=3.8 m/s representing the car's speed at the bottom of the driveway

W=Δ K.E

=  15162  J  

W = (1/2)(2100)(3.8)^2As the x component of gravity is

= mg sinФ

Fx_thus

= (2100)(9.8)sin(20.0°) results in

Fx_{} = 7038.77 N

And the Net force isFx_{}

=

-

F_{net}Fx_ {} = 7038.77 - 4000 = 3038.77 NF_{f}

So, the length of the driveway equals W / (

) = 15162/3038.77 = 4.98 m F_{net}

F_{net}

Thus, this is the length of the driveway.
