Physics help!!!! Three Forces in equilibrium?
So I'm doing a problem on quest and I'm stumped...
Essentially there's an object with 2 forces acting on it.
I'm assuming it's motionless btw.
On the left side Force 1 is unknown and so is theta.
On the right side Force 2 is 5.2 N at 42 degrees.
The weight of the object is 9.8 N.
But how do I find Force 1 and theta??
It's in equilibrium so i assumed it was the same. But it rejected my answer and took away two points.
Please help before my grade drops from an A- to a B!!
2 AnswersPhysics9 years agoPhysics, graph of velocity vs time graph help?!?!?!?
so the question is asking me to find the slope of the line. But I don't understand how to find it when the slope isn't constant. The line curves up as the object is speeding up and then curves down as it slows. Like a parabola. I don't understand how to find the slope. Can anyone help me?

3 AnswersSpecial Education9 years agoHorrible nickname, help with getting rid of it.?
I have a nickname stuck to me. It's not offensive on the surface.
It started early this school year by a close friend. But it took off like wildfire. I hated it because it brought back a really bad memory from Middle School. So I asked politely for it to stop.
It didn't.
I got angry every time it was said. To the point where I hit a few people really hard, some were friends.
I'm still friends with them, almost nothing has changed about our friendships, except the fact that they know I can beat the living **** out of them.
The name goes on still, and out of fear of becoming a bully I stopped getting angry (they thought it was funny when I blew up) and I try to ignore it.
I really want it to go away. Almost everybody calls me it now. I've never felt so depressed...
8 AnswersPolls & Surveys9 years agoAwkwardness in One of my classes?
During the last period of the day I sit awkwardly in the class. There are a lot of people to talk to but they're busy usually with their best friends. Where I sit is close to one of my best friends and a few good friends.
Seems simple enough, but there's an issue.
One kid who I can't bare to hang out with, talk to, etc. has befriended them. He annoys the hell out of me-on purpose
I've just tried to ignore him but he still annoys me. Not as much but still. Usually I keep to myself in class which feels awkward. I don't know what to do, and when class is about to end, and we have a few minutes to walk around and chat, I have no idea what to do. He's just there talking with them.
My best friend and good friends aren't annoyed by him. Usually he targets me, again no where near as much as before but if I walk up it happens.
It's just a stupid nickname that's stuck to me somehow.
But he's the only one who calls me that. I've asked him to stop. He doesn't but I ignore him.
What do i do in class. He hangs out with them, I don't want to go near him, I just sit awkwardly in my desk, by myself, alone...
1 AnswerOther - Cultures & Groups9 years agoMad at my mom, permit, teen, help please?
Usually my mom and I are relaxed and easygoing with each other. But long story short: I needed to get my permit (i turn 16 in march) but was too busy over the summer for classes so I took parent taught. Finished it but a few weeks ago I had my permit denied because she forgot to send in a sheet to Austin to approve it. She started a new parent taught (online) permit but I've been so busy with school that I've had little time to do it. I asked her and she said No.
I just want her to take responsibility (she's not the most responsible person, there's a lot of other stuff) but even though I did the work the first time and know the info she says no.
BTW Parent taught version is parent supervises as kid read for hours an online packet.

1 AnswerFashion & Accessories9 years agoOpening my own practice?
I'm in high school and I was thinking of going to med school and becoming an orthopedic surgeon. Still haven't decided yet because I'm only a sophomore but healthcare is something I like a lot. But after reading about the hours I'm not so sure anymore. Would opening my own practice affect my work schedule and my pay?
I want to have a life
1 AnswerSmall Business9 years agoStress Help, last paragraph sums it all up?
The last paragraph has the conclusion of why I'm stressed, the first few are the reasons and small story of how I became so stressed. Any help I would love.
So for starters I have a good standard of living. Even though my parents are divorced they remarried well, have nice homes, we have a second one in another state. But then I changed from my public school, because there were too many competitive kids there (i had a 3.7 and was in the bottom half of my class) , to a new private school in my city suburb that has kids that come from everywhere.
A majority of the kids are part of the upper middle class and their parents made their money by themselves and usually don't spoil their kids because they want them to know the real world. But the rest of the kids parents', all self made, are millionaires with expensive cars, homes, and high up jobs. These are very nice people and are down to Earth but since a few of my best friends have that lifestyle it can feel weird sometimes. Very down to Earth and friendly, kind, and know how the real world lives.
However I get stressed out even though I live a good life. The field of work I plan to go into after high school will guarantee me a good amount of money. If I can't find work then I can start my own practice because my family and possibly another few are generous when it comes to things like that. My family is thinking of buying a new business which I can use as experience too.
But even though, forgive me if I sound arrogant ( I don't think I'm better), my future is secure and I know for a fact I will have a higher standard of living than the one I grew up with, ( i will have the american dream), the stress from having friends in the Nouveau riche class has seriously driven me crazy. Seeing their parents success has made me want to reach that high of a living but I developed tremendous fear if I will reach it or not. I know I'll have a good life but I can't shake the feeling that I won't be successful. At least not in my own eyes.
Please help, thanks for reading

2 AnswersMental Health9 years agoAm I a bully or am I becoming one?
Most of my life I wasn't the kid who got bully or was the bully. My public school was great then I switched into private school. Freshman year was great and like public school.
Now I'm a sophomore, it's still great but lately there's been the idea of me being a bully in my head. I have a good amount of friends that are pretty diverse. Best friend #2 and #3 are where I worry about being a bully.
Ever since about the start of the year I got stuck with a nickname. The meaning of it didn't bother me but the constant shouting out of it, because saying it was fun (there wasn't anthing offensive about it), but the tone that was struck by 2 & 3 did. After a while they saw it got to me. Eventually I told them to stop. They didn't. It drove me insane, to the point where I've punched both of them either in the gut or worse...in the temple. I've asked for forginice and at least #3 has stopped completley.
Now it's just #2 and everytime I explode, after trying to ignore it for days, I get back confusion from #2, as if he didn't do anything to really set me off. I know it's fun for some others to watch me explode but lately I'm incredibly worried about me turning into a bully.
Any help?

1 AnswerPolls & Surveys10 years agoWhat's a word to describe my personality?
i'm a lover and a fighter. i'm a teenager, i'm on the popular and make friends easily and can get along with someone really fast. i go from aggressive and outspoken to quiet and reserved. sporadic in almost everything
My friends range on every spectrum from the jocks to nerds, the emo's to the preppys to the anime fans, etc. I'm generally nice and will listen to people.
Once I try something I'll usually like it and if not than i forget about it and don't hate it. i've never been on polarized and my opinions on things vary slightly depending on whom i'm around.
i live in an affluent city in a well off family, most of them are nice but have an identity. I don't.
i'm usually a median between peoples and usually get caught up in something that doesn't have much to do with me.
i can range from serious and quiet, to athletic and competitive, to reserved, to focused, to enthusiastic, to warm hearted, fun loving, to loner, to people oriented.
I lack much of an identity
1 AnswerOther - Society & Culture10 years agoHow to hide an extra rib?
So I have an extra rib on my cage on my left side. It's at the bottom and on the other side there isn't one. It gets noticed whenever I go swim or have my shirt off and it just annoys me. People think that there's a bump or something and stare before I tell them about having an extra one. I'm a varsity swimmer and it just makes me look skinny even though I almost have a six pack. Working on building more muscle on the abs.
Any suggestions other than just flex the ab muscles to hide it?
