A truck is carrying a refrigerator as shown in the figure. The height of the refrigerator is 158.0 cm, the width is 60.0 cm. The

center of gravity of the refrigerator is 67.0 cm above the midpoint of the base.
What is the maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator doesn't tip over? (The static friction between the truck and the refrigerator is very large.)

The maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator does not tip over is 4.15 m/s².

<h3>What will be the maximum acceleration of the truck to avoid tipping over?</h3>

The maximum acceleration is obtained by taking clockwise moments about the tipping point of rotation.

Clockwise moment = Anticlockwise moment

Ft * 1.58 m = F * 0.67 m

where

  • Ft is tipping force = mass * acceleration, a
  • F is weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity, g

m * a * 1.58 = m * 9.81 * 0.67

a = 4.15 m/s²

The maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator does not tip over is 4.15 m/s².

In conclusion, the acceleration of the truck is found by taking moments about the tipping point.

What are the arrangement of resistors in series ​
Mama L [17]

Answer:

A chain

Explanation:

A series circuit is a circuit, where the resistors are arranged in a chain. They are aligned like this so the current only has one path to take. The current quantity is the same through each resistor.

If you ever have trouble remembering this you can think of a movie series which goes on and on and on. And remembering a parallel circuit is simpler because everything in the circuit will be parallel!

Static electric fields are caused by charged particles. What characterizes a positively charged particle?
sergeinik [125]

Static electric fields are caused by charged particles when the atoms which compose the particle will have the same number of electrons as protons.

Each point in space has an electric field associated with it when the charge of any kind is present. The value of E, often known as the electric field strength, electric field intensity, or just the electric field, expresses the strength and direction of the electric field.

Both the electromagnetic wave produced by a radio broadcast monopole antenna and the field created in the dielectric of a parallel-plate capacitor are examples of electric fields (which create a time-varying field). Every place in space where a charge, regardless of its shape, is present is said to have an electric field, which is an electric attribute. The electric field's equation is given as E = F / Q.
