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.

Un atleta tiene en un instante dado una velocidad de 4 m/s. Si a partir de ese instante y durante 2 s adquiere un MRUA con una a

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Velocidad final, V = 8 m/s

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Velocidad inicial, u = 4 m/s

Aceleración, a = 2 m/s²

Tiempo, t = 2 segundos

Para encontrar la velocidad final (v), usaríamos la primera ecuación de movimiento;

V = u + at

Sustituyendo en la fórmula, tenemos;

V = 4 + 2*2

V = 4 + 4

Velocidad final, V = 8 m/s

The difference in temperature is low near sea. Give reason.

Free_Kalibri [48]

Because there is water everywhere by which the water gets hot and vaporised so that's why near the sea temperature is low.

Two identical spheres carry charges of +0.6 coulomb and -0.2 coulomb, respectively. If these spheres touch, the resulting charge

masya89 [10]

Answer:

2. +0.2 C

Explanation:

When the two spheres touch, the total charge will be redistributed such that the two spheres are at same potential:

$V_1 = V_2$

The potential can be rewritten as ratio between the charge on the sphere (Q) and the capacitance of the sphere (C):

$\frac{Q_1}{C_1}=\frac{Q_2}{C_2}$

Since the two spheres are identical, they have same capacitance:

$C_1 =C_2=C$

So we can write

$\frac{Q_1}{C}=\frac{Q_2}{C}$

$Q_1=Q_2$

And since the total charge is

$Q=+0.6 C-0.2 C=+0.4 C$

And this charge will be redistributed equally on the two spheres ( $Q_1 = Q_2$ ), we have

$Q_1 = Q_2 = \frac{Q}{2}=\frac{+0.4 C}{2}=+0.2 C$

The 4 main factors the determine the rate of weathering are....

Alexandra [31]

<span> <span> <span> <span> CLIMATE: The amount of water in the air and the temperature of an area are both part of an area’s climate. Moisture speeds up chemical weathering. Weathering occurs fastest in hot, wet climates. It occurs very slowly in hot and dry climates. Without temperature changes, ice wedging cannot occur. In very cold, dry areas, there is little weathering. </span> <span> SURFACE AREA<span>-
Most weathering occurs on exposed surfaces of rocks and minerals. The more surface area a rock has, the more quickly it will weather. When a block is cut into smaller pieces, it has more surface area. So, therefore, the smaller pieces of a rock will weather faster than a large block of rock</span> </span> <span> ROCK COMPOSITION<span>-
Some minerals resist weathering. Quartz is a mineral that weathers slowly. Rocks made up of minerals such as feldspar, calcite, and iron, weather more quickly.</span> </span> <span> Pollution speeds up weathering. Factories and cars release carbon dioxide and other gases into the air. These gases dissolve in the rainwater, causing acid rain <span>to form. Acid rain contains nitric and sulfuric acid, causing rocks and minerals to dissolve faster. </span> </span> </span> </span> </span>
