Imagine you derive the following expression by analyzing the physics of a particular system: a=gsinθ−μkgcosθ, where g=9.80meter/

second2. Simplify the expression for a by pulling out the common factor.
a.) a = g sinθ − μk g cosθ (no simplification should be performed on the expression in this situation)

b.) a = g (sinθ−μk cosθ)

c.) a = (9.80meter/second^2)sinθ −μk (9.80 meter/second^2)cosθ

Answer:

Explanation:

Analysis of structure gives

a=gsinθ−μkgcosθ

Notice that all the expression are right but we want to know of we can simplify the expression further.

We want to analyse if we can still further simplify the expression,

Inspecting the Right hand side of the equation, we notice that the acceleration due to gravity is common to both side, so we can bring it out i.e.

So option a is wrong because the expression can be simplified further to

a=g(sinθ−μkcosθ)

Option b is right and the best option.

Since we are given that, g=9.8m/s²

We can as well substitute that to option a

So we will have

a=9.8metre/second²(sinθ−μkcosθ)

Also option C is correct but it is not best inserting the values of g directly without simplifying the expression first

So it will have been the best option if it was written as

a=9.8metre/second²(sinθ−μkcosθ)

So the best option is B.

igomit [66]

Answer: 4m

Explanation:

Since the angle of incidence of a plane mirror can be anything from 0 to 90°

Assuming that the place is a perfectly square 4×4m room

The incident ray would be 45° for the choir(object) at a 4m distance, this is still within the range of values.

We do not forget also, that the focal length of a plane mirror is infinity, the organist would in fact see farther than 4m if need be. And wider

When the pressure on a gas increases,what does the volume do?
kupik [55]

Answer:

As pressure goes up, volume goes down.

Explanation:

Pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional.  This means that as pressure goes up, volume goes down.  And as volume goes up, pressure goes down.

Cheers.

An upright object 2.80 cm tall is placed 16.0 cm away from the vertex of a concave mirror with a center of curvature of 24.0 cm.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

f = 12 cm

Explanation:

<u>Center of Curvature</u>:

The center of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Center of Curvature’ of  mirror.

<u>The Radius of Curvature</u>:

The radius of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Radius of Curvature’ of  mirror. It is the distance from pole to the center of curvature.

<u>Focal Length</u>:

The distance between principal focus and pole is called ‘Focal Length’. It is denoted by ‘F’.

The focal length of the spherical (concave) mirror is approximately equal to half of the radius of curvature:

f = \frac{R}{2}

where,

f = focal length = ?

R = Radius of curvature = 24 cm

Therefore,

f = \frac{24\ cm}{2}

<u>f = 12 cm</u>

One gallon of paint (volume = 3.79 X 10-???? m3) covers an area of 25.0 m2. What i the thickne s of the fresh paint on the wall?
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Volume of paint is V=3.79\times 10^{-3}\ m^3

Area of cover A=25\ m^2

Suppose paint to be a rectangular box with thickness t and volume V

therefore we can write as

V=A\times t

t=\frac{V}{A}

t=\frac{3.79\times 10^{-3}}{25}

t=1.516\times 10^{-3}\ m

t=1.516\ mm

A laser beam with a frequency of 180 Hz forms an 8 m standing wave with 10 nodes.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:33

Explanation:

F = frequency

N =  Node count

w = wave lenght

v = wave velocity

L = distance wave traveled

First find wave length of laser

w = (2/(N))*(L)

w = (2/(10))*(8)

w = 1.6

then using (w), find velocity

V =  (w)(F)

V = (1.6)*(108)

V = 288

Plug in V and the new frequency to solve for new node count

F = NV/2L

(600) = (N)*(288) / 2 * (8)

(N) = 33.33

there are 33 nodes
