For the 5.0Kg block with the force of 15 Newton, the coefficient of static friction (μ) comes out to be 0.306. Applying the formula F = μmg.

Static friction acts on stationary body/body at rest. Let μ be the coefficient of static friction between the block and the horizontal floor.

Using the formula: F = μmg

Where,

F = Force , m= mass of the block and g = gravity.

and values of: m= 5.0Kg, F= 15.0N, g= 9.8m/s²

We can get: μ = F/(mg)

μ = 15/49

μ =0.306

Therefore, coefficient of static friction (μ) = 0.306.

Explain why more stars are circumpolar for observers at higher latitudes.
PIT_PIT [208]

Explanation:

When you observe the night sky you will notice that the stars are moving. They rise from eastern horizon and set in the western horizon. It happens due to rotation of Earth. When observed closely you will notice that the all the stars seem to go around the pole star. Out of all the stars there are some stars which neither set not rise, such stars are called as Circumpolar stars. This means that they are always above the horizon. If we trace the path of such stars they will appear to make complete circle around the pole star.

Also, you will notice that the altitude of pole star (separation of pole star from the horizon in degrees) will depend on the location of observe on the Earth. This happens due to Earth being spherical. So if you are on equator the pole star will be on the horizon i.e. 0° altitude. If you are at Poles, altitude of the pole star will be 90°. Technically the altitude of pole star at any place on Earth is equal to the latitude of the place.

If the altitude of pole star varies and increases as you move towards higher latitude on Earth, the distance between horizon and pole star will also increase. This will result in more stars being circumpolar.

If you are at Poles, all the stars will be circumpolar and if you are at equator no star will be circumpolar.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Class characteristics can be define as the features which are common to the group of objects. Like the make, model, label of the manufacturing company, design, shape and form. The individual characteristics can be define as the features which develop on the object or any other article with it's wear and use. Like tear, cuts, malformation and deposition of dust, dirt, and mud. The individual characteristic indicate towards the ownership of article or evidence to a particular person.

The class characteristics can only support the possibility of the evidence exactly alike that of the evidence found at the scene of crime. But the individual characteristics can directly link the evidence with the cause of crime. Hence, will be useful to prove that a crime has taken place in the court of law.

An electric iron is connected to the mains power supply of 220 V. When the electric iron is
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Given: V = 220V, Pmin = 360W, Pmax = 840W

For minimum heating case:

We know that

Pmin = VI

360 = 220 X I

I = 1.63 amp

R = V/I

R = 220/1.63

R = 134.96ohms

For maximum heating case:

We know that

Pmax = VI

840 = 220 X I

I = 3.81 amp

R = V/I

R = 220/3.81

R = 57.74 ohms
