This force can either push the block upward at a constant velocity or allow it to slide downward at a constant velocity. The mag
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Part a)

F = 135.7 N

Part b)

F = 62.5 N

Explanation:

Part a)

If block is sliding up then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block

Fcos\theta = mg + F_f

Fsin\theta = F_n

so we have

Fcos\theta = mg + \mu(Fsin\theta)

F(cos\theta - \mu sin\theta) = mg

F = \frac{mg}{cos\theta - \mu sin\theta}

F = \frac{55}{cos50 - 0.310(sin50)}

F = 135.7 N

Part b)

If block is sliding down then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block

Fcos\theta = mg - F_f

Fsin\theta = F_n

so we have

Fcos\theta = mg - \mu(Fsin\theta)

F(cos\theta + \mu sin\theta) = mg

F = \frac{mg}{cos\theta + \mu sin\theta}

F = \frac{55}{cos50 + 0.310(sin50)}

F = 62.5 N

A 2 nC point charge is at the origin, and a second 5 nC point charge is on the x-axis at x = 8 m. Find the electric field (magni
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The magnitude of  the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

Explanation:

Given that,

Point charge at origin = 2 nC

Second charge = 5 nC

Distance at x axis = 8 m

We need to calculate the electric field at the point x = 2 m

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}(\dfrac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^2}+\dfrac{q_{2}}{r_{2}^2})

Put the value into the formula

E=9\times10^{9}\times(\dfrac{2\times10^{-9}}{2^2}+\dfrac{5\times10^{-9}}{(8-2)^2})

E=5.75\ N/C

The direction is toward positive x- axis.

Hence, The magnitude of  the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

Featured snippet from the web

Answer: Surface waves can have characteristics of both longitudinal and transverse waves in the following way; The motion of the surface waves is up and down which is perpendicular to the direction of the wave. This is similar to the motion of transverse waves whereas the the motion of longitudinal.

A ball of mass M is suspended by a thin string (of negligible mass) from the ceiling of an elevator.uploaded image
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

(a) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a higher floor.  T > mg

(b) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is increasing as it begins its journey towards a higher floor. T > mg

(c) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a lower floor. T < mg

(d) The elevator is traveling downward at a constant velocity. T = mg

(e) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is increasing. T < mg

(f) The elevator is stationary and remains at rest. T = mg

Explanation:

To answer this question, consider all the forces acting on the elevator.

The mass of the ball acting downwards due to gravity = mg

The tension on the string depends on upward or downwards force on the ball. T = m(a+g)

where a is acceleration and increase in velocity causes increase in acceleration, and vice versa. (a = v/t)

(a) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a higher floor.

If the upward velocity is decreasing, its acceleration is also decreasing, and acceleration is not equal to Zero

T = m(a+g) > mg

(b) The elevator is traveling upward and its upward velocity is increasing as it begins its journey towards a higher floor.

If the upward velocity is increasing, its acceleration is also increasing.

Then, T = m(a+g) > mg

(c) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is decreasing as it nears a stop at a lower floor.

If the downward velocity is decreasing, its acceleration is also decreasing, and acceleration is not equal to Zero

T = m(a-g) < mg

(d) The elevator is traveling downward at a constant velocity

At constant velocity, acceleration is zero, because acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

T = m(0+g) = mg

(e) The elevator is traveling downward and its downward velocity is increasing

If the downward velocity is increasing, its acceleration is also increasing

T = m(a-g) < mg

(f) The elevator is stationary and remains at rest.

if the elevator is at rest, its acceleration is zero

T = m(0+g) = mg
