The phrase "see eye to eye" means to agree or have a shared perspective on a matter. Therefore, the opposite of this would be to disagree.

The word "decorous" means exhibiting proper behaviour, good manners and etiquette, especially in formal settings. Therefore, the opposite of being decorous would be behaving in a manner that is inappropriate or "impolite".

The word "unfathomable" means something difficult or impossible to understand or measure. It is something that is beyond comprehension. The word "predictable" is the opposite of "unfathomable" because it means something that can be anticipated or is expected and that is straightforward.

The word "overpriced" means that the price of the shirt is too high relative to its value or quality. The opposite of being overpriced inexpensive or cheap.

The phrase "drew the line at" means to set a limit or establish a boundary regarding what is acceptable or permissible. Therefore, the opposite of "drew the line" is to have a lack of such boundaries. A. Favoured means supporting or being lenient towards something is the opposite of setting strict limits. B. rejected means refusing something. C. emphasized means to stress or highlight something. D. ignored means neglecting an issue.

The word "taut" means pulled tight or not slack. Therefore, the opposite of taut is "loose," which indicates that something is not tight and has some give or slack.

The word "debilitating" suggests weakening or impairing, so the opposite in meaning would be an energizing

The phrase "under a cloud" means to be in a state of suspicion, disfavour or disgrace as a result of negative circumstances or controversy. Therefore, the opposite of this phrase would be "with a clear record," which means that the person left without any negative implications or suspicion.

The word "diurnal" means occurring during the daytime or happening every day. Therefore, the opposite meaning would refer to something that happens at night.

A "renegade" is someone who betrays or rebels against an organization, cause or principle. Such a person is disloyal to such organisation, cause or principle. Therefore, the opposite of "renegade" would be someone loyal, as they would remain faithful to their commitments or beliefs.

Given: mass of stone = 500g = 0.5kg, e = 20cm = 0.2m, velocity of stone on leaving the catapult = 40m/s The potential energy stored in the catapult when extended = the kinetic energy (KE) of the stone \(\frac{1}{2}\)Fe = \(\frac{1}{2}\)mv\(^2\) F x 0.2 = 0.5 x 40 x 40 F = \(\frac{800}{0.2}\) = 4000 N = 4 x 10\(^3\) N

Let the velocity of stream be Vs = 0.75m/s Angle at which the boat lands \theta = 30º the velocity of the boat = Vb \(\frac{0.75}{V_b}\) = Sin30º = 0.5 ∴ V\(_b\) = \(\frac{0.75}{0.5}\) = 1.5m/s

Tension = Force of gravity + acceleration force = mg + ma \(a = \frac{v - u}{t}\) = \(\frac{4 - 0}{8}\) = 0.5 ms\(^{-2}\) Tension = (\(10 \times 10) + 10 \times 0.5\) = 100 + 5 = 105N

Weight of handbag(W) = 162N acting vertically downward Angle of pull (\(\theta\)) = 60º to the vertical Since the handbag is in equilibrium, the total vertical force must equal the weight of the handbag. Let F be the force exerted by each student on the handle. The vertical component of the force from each student is given by: Fv = F cos 60º but there are two students 2Fcos60º = 162 2F(0.5) = 162 ( cos60º = 0.5) F = 162 ( since 2 x 0.5 = 1) Therefore, the force exerted by each student on the handbag is: 162N ​

LAWS OF SOLID FRICTION: Friction opposes the relative motion of two surfaces in contact. It is independent of the area of the surface of contact. It depends on the nature of the surface. It is proportional to normal reaction (R). It is independent of the relative velocity between the surfaces. Therefore, the true statements regarding sliding friction are I, II, and IV.
