Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Acceleration, a = -2.4 m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Sum of forces = 0

Fr + F = 0

Fr = µsl × m × g

Since, Fn = m × g

m × a = (- µsl × mg)

µsl = -a/g

= 2.4/9.8

= 0.245

A 1.50-m cylinder of radius 1.10 cm is made of a complicated mixture of materials. Its resistivity depends on the distance x fro
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Resistance = 3.35*10^{-4} Ω

Explanation:

Since resistance R = ρ\frac{L}{A}

whereas \rho(x) = a + bx^2

resistivity is given for two ends. At the left end resistivity is 2.25* 10^{-8} whereas x at the left end will be 0 as distance is zero. Thus

2.25*10^{-8} = a + b(0)^2\\ 2.25*10^{-8} = a + 0 \\2.25*10^{-8} = a

At the right end x will be equal to the length of the rod, so x = 1.50\\8.50*10^{-8} = (2.25*10^{-8}) + ( b* (1.50)^2 )\\8.50*10^{-8} - (2.25*10^{-8}) = b*2.25\\\frac{6.25*10^{-8}}{2.25}  = b\\b = 2.77 *10^{-8}

Thus resistance will be R = ρ\frac{L}{A}

where A = π r^2

so,

R = \frac{8.50*10^{-8} * 1.50}{3.14*(1.10*10^{-2})^2} \\R=3.35 * 10 ^{-4}

They would all strike the ground at the same time. If air resistance is neglected for example in an airless tube, then gravity is the only force acting on them and it has the same effect on them dropping so the drop at the same speed.

How can a model be created to predict how forces affect objects at a distance?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Gravitational force increases as the masses of the objects increase and decreases as the distance between the objects increases. Balanced forces acting on an object cause no change in the motion of the object. When unbalanced forces act on an object, the sum of the forces is not equal to zero.
