Changes in the earths ability to reflect sunlight (called the 'albeido') due to clouds and other weather like ice formations set up feedback loops that prevent a perfect equlibrium with the sun.
Answer:
F = force
f = friction
u = coefficient of friction
R = normal reaction force
a = Acceleration
m = mass of block
g = gravity
f = uR
F = Ma
Say the block is moving to the right.
The 146N force thus acts to the right, and the friction force to the left, since it resists movement.
The 146N force acts to the right, but the horizontal component of it is 146 cos 50 = 93.84: So this is the force to the right.
Since F = uR and we're trying to find u, we need both F and R. R is easy to get since it is just m x g. This is in fact already given as the weight 350N. So R = 350.
The block is moving at a constant speed, so the force to the right must = the force to the left.
F = ma, so 93.84 - f = (350/g) x 0
This means f must be 93.84 also.
so we have f = uR,
93.84 = u x 350
so u = 0.268 or
0.27 to 2dp.
Hope you understand this.
Explanation:
Answer:
12.7 N
15.7 N
Explanation:
mass (m) = 0.15 kg
radius (r) = 0.6 m
speed = 2 rps = 2 x 60 = 120 rpm
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}
find the tension at the top and bottom of the circle.
Tension at the top T = 
v = radius x rpm x 0.10472 = 0.6 x 120 x 0.10472 = 7.54 m/s
- we can now substitute the value of v into T =

T =
= 12.7 N
Tension at the bottom T' = 
v = radius x rpm x 0.10472 = 0.6 x 120 x 0.10472 = 7.54 m/s
- we can now substitute the value of v into T' =

T' =
= 15.7 N
Answer:
time at which Kathy overtakes Stan is 6.70 sec
Explanation:
given data
time = 1 sec
acceleration= 3.4 m/s²
acceleration = 4.49 m/s²
to find out
the time at which Kathy overtakes Stan
solution
we consider here travel time for kathy = t1
and travel time for stan is = t2
and we know initial velocity = 0
so
t1 = 1 + t2
and distance travel equation by kinematic is
d1 = ut +
at²
d1 = 0+
4.49 (t2)² ................1
and
d2 = 0 +
3.4 (1+t2)² ..................2
and when overtake distance same so from equation 1 and 2
4.49 (t2)² =
3.4 (1+t2)²
t2 = 6.703828 sec
so time at which Kathy overtakes Stan is 6.70 sec
