Which method will correctly determine whether the forces on an object are balanced or unbalanced?

Really none of these are all bad ways to determine which one it is but if you maybe add the forces in the horizontal and vertical directions separately might work.

For this case, the first thing you should do is define a reference system.

Once the system is defined, we must follow the following steps:

1) Do the sum of forces in a horizontal direction

2) Do the sum of forces in vertical direction

The forces will be balanced if for each direction the net force is equal to zero.

The forces will be unbalanced if for each direction the net force is nonzero.

Answer:

Add the forces in the horizontal and vertical directions separately.

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

$7.55\times 10^{-7} m$

Explanation:

We are given that

d=0.23 mm= $0.23\times 10^{-3} m$

$1mm=10^{-3} m$

Screen is placed from the slits at distance ,L=4.75 m

The bright interference fringes on the screen are separated by 1.56 cm.

$\Delta y=1.56 cm=1.56\times 10^{-2} m$

1 m=100 cm

We have to find the wavelength of laser light.

We know that

$\Delta y=\frac{\lambda L}{d}$

Substitute the values

$1.56\times 10^{-2}=\frac{\lambda\times 4.75}{0.23\times 10^{-3}}$

$\lambda=\frac{1.56\times 10^{-2}\times 0.23\times 10^{-3}}{4.75}$

$\lambda=7.55\times 10^{-7} m$

At 20 degrees Celsius, conducting wires made of different materials have the same length and the same diameter. Which wire has t

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

Aluminium has the least resistance since It has 3 free electrons per atom. Its resistivity is low compared to other metals provided in the choices (gold, nichrome, tungsten). Low resistivity of metals means a high conductance of the metal referred to.

A spring has a 12 cm length. When a 200-g mass is hung from the spring, it extends to 27 cm. The hanging mass were pulled downwa

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The equation of the time-dependent function of the position is $x(t)=5\cos(8.08t)$

(b) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 12 cm

Mass = 200 g

Extend distance = 27 cm

Distance = 5 cm

Phase angle =0°

We need to calculate the spring constant

Using formula of restoring force

$F=kx$

$mg=kx$

$k=\dfrac{mg}{x}$

$k=\dfrac{200\times10^{-3}\times9.8}{(27-12)\times10^{2}}$

$k=13.06\ N/m$

We need to calculate the time period

Using formula of time period

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

Put the value into the formula

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2}{13.6}}$

$T=0.777\ sec$

At t = 0, the maximum displacement was 5 cm

So, The equation of the time-dependent function of the position

$x(t)=A\cos(\omega t)$

Put the value into the formula

$x(t)=5\cos(2\pi\times f\times t)$

$x(t)=5\cos(2\pi\times\dfrac{1}{T}\times t)$

$x(t)=5\cos(2\pi\times\dfrac{1}{0.777}\times t)$

$x(t)=5\cos(8.08t)$

Hence, The equation of the time-dependent function of the position is $x(t)=5\cos(8.08t)$

There is more role of the moon than the sun to occur tides in oceans?why?

Leya [2.2K]

The ocean tides on earth are caused by both the moon's gravity and the sun's gravity. ... Even though the sun is much more massive and therefore has stronger overall gravity than the moon, the moon is closer to the earth so that its gravitational gradient is stronger than that of the sun.
