A leaf fell from a tree branch. The path it followed is shown in the diagram below.

1 answer:

4 0

The leaf fell at the crooked path instead of straight down because air currents and gravity applied changing and unbalanced forces to the leaf.

<h3>What is an air current?</h3>

An air current is defined as the changes in atmospheric pressure that causes the movement of air from one area to another.

When a leaf is detached naturally from the tree, it won't fall straight down to the floor but will fall a distance away from the tree due to the action of air current and some unbalanced forces.

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= F0 L ( 1 - 1/e )

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Work done is given as the product of force and distance.

In this case;

Work done = ∫︎ F(x) dx

= F0 ∫︎ e^(-x/L) dx

= F0 [ -L e^(-x/L) ] between 0 and L

= F0 L ( 1 - 1/e )

A wagon wheel consists of 8 spokes of uniform diamter, each of mass m, and length L. The outer ring has a mass m rin. What is th

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$L^2(\dfrac{8m}{3}+m_r)$

Explanation:

m = Mass of each rod

L = Length of rod = Radius of ring

$m_r$ = Mass of ring

Moment of inertia of a spoke

$\dfrac{mL^2}{3}$

For 8 spokes

$8\dfrac{mL^2}{3}$

Moment of inertia of ring

$m_rL^2$

Total moment of inertia

$8\dfrac{mL^2}{3}+m_rL^2\\\Rightarrow L^2(\dfrac{8m}{3}+m_r)$

The moment of inertia of the wheel through an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the ring is $L^2(\dfrac{8m}{3}+m_r)$ .

Hooke's law describes a certain light spring of unstretched length 34.8 cm. When one end is attached to the top of a doorframe a

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

a) $k = 1343.6\,\frac{N}{m}$ , b) $l = 0.501\,m\,(50.1\,cm)$

Explanation:

a) The Hooke's law states that spring force is directly proportional to change in length. That is to say:

$F \propto \Delta l$

In this case, the force is equal to the weight of the object:

$F = m\cdot g$

$F = (8.22\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )$

$F = 80.614\,N$

The spring constant is:

$k = \frac{F}{\Delta l}$

$k = \frac{80.614\,N}{0.408\,m-0.348\,m}$

$k = 1343.6\,\frac{N}{m}$

b) The length of the spring is:

$F = k\cdot (l-l_{o})$

$l = l_{o} + \frac{F}{k}$

$l=0.348\,m+\frac{205\,N}{1343.6\,\frac{N}{m} }$

$l = 0.501\,m\,(50.1\,cm)$

Construct a graph of position versus time for the motion of a dog, using the data in the table below. Explain how the graph indi

Lynna [10]

Answer:

The dog is moving at a constant speed

Explanation:

Given that,

Position : 5, 10, 15, 20, 25

Time = 5. 10, 15, 20, 25

We need to draw a position time graph

Using given data

A graph of position and time shows the speed.

According to graph,

The graph indicates that the dog is moving at a constant speed because the graph is straight line.

Hence, The dog is moving at a constant speed
