Explain the forces that keep a rock balanced on a tiny pedestal. Please help me with this!

Physics

SashulF [63]2 years ago

Normal force for the rock because that makes an object stable at its position.
static friction because micro-welts hold its particle on its position so it doesn't change in position by a potential energy. Gravity makes it stay on the ground because its force attraction between an object and the earth. 
Hope this helps <span />

A 35-gram stainless steel ball on a track is moving at a velocity of 9 m/s. On the same track, a 75-gram stainless steel ball is
elena-s [515]

Answer:

4.2 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(35 g) (9 m/s) + (75 g) (-7 m/s) = (35 g) (-15 m/s) + (75 g) v

315 g m/s − 525 g m/s = -525 g m/s + (75 g) v

315 g m/s = (75 g) v

v = 4.2 m/s

Your roommate drops your wallet down to you from the third-floor window of your apartment, which is 11.5 m from the ground. What
Aneli [31]

Answer:

15 m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of energy, potential energy equals kinetic energy hence

mgh=0.5mv^{2}

Therefore

v=\sqrt{2gh}

where g is the acceleration due to gravity, m is the mass of the object, h is the height and v is the speed of the wallet

Taking g as 9.81 then

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 11.5}=15.02098532  m/s\approx 15 m/s

A basesball is dropped from 100 meters above the surface of the earth. The baseball falls to the ground. What would happen if th
Serjik [45]

Given that, A basesball is dropped from 100 meters above the surface of the earth. If the same baseball was dropped from 100 meters above the surface of the moon, it will take more time to hit the ground as compare to the ball dropped on earth. This is moon's gravity is one-sixth of that of earth. Object falling on earth possess more force of attraction. So it will reach the earth in lesser time. At moon the force of attraction is low compare to that of earth. Object will take more time to reach the surface.

If a bullet loses 1/nth of its velocity while passing through a plank,then no of planks required to stop the bullet is?
Novay_Z [31]
Based on the answer provided, it seems the writer wanted you to assume that the energy loss per plank is constant. This is not the same as the bullet losing <span><span>1/nth</span><span>1/nth</span></span><span> of its velocity per plank (however, the fact that the question does not mention this assumption arguably makes the question ambiguous).

</span><span>With this assumption, the energy loss becomes
</span><span>
ΔE = <span>1/2 </span>m<span>v2 </span>− <span>1/2 </span>m <span><span>(<span>v−<span>v/n</span></span>) </span><span>2
</span></span></span>
and the number of planks <span>NN</span><span> becomes
</span>
N = <span><span><span>1/2</span>m<span>v2 /</span></span><span>ΔE </span></span>= <span><span>n2/ </span><span>2n−1
</span></span>
Otherwise, if you assume that the bullet loses <span><span>1/<span>nth</span></span><span>1/<span>nth</span></span></span><span> of its velocity per plank, then the answer is </span><span><span>N=∞</span></span><span><span>
