The appropriate answer is c. geysers. A geysers a hot water fountain that spouts intermittently with great force, frequently accompanied by a thunderous roar. The world famous Old Faithful is located in Yellowstone National Park. This geyser erupts every 65 min sending a jet of water almost 60 meters into the air. Sinkholes and caves are formed by the action of groundwater on carbonate rocks which causes them to colapse and former these structures.

17. A 25 kg block is initially at rest on a rough, horizontal surface. A horizontal force of 75 N is required to set

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

0.30581

0.24464

Explanation:

$\mu_s$ = Coefficient of static friction

$\mu_k$ = Coefficient of kinetic friction

$F_f$ = 75 N

$F_k$ = 60 N

Normal force

$F_n=mg\\\Rightarrow F_n=25\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=245.25\ N$

Frictional force

$F_f=\mu_sF_n\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{F_f}{F_n}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{75}{245.25}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=0.30581$

The coefficient of static friction is 0.30581

Kinetic force

$F_k=\mu_kF_n\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=\frac{F_k}{F_n}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{60}{245.25}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=0.24464$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.24464

The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper e

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.

This force is provided by a component of T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,

T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So

Tcosθ = mw²R

Tsinθ component will balance the weight .

Tsinθ = mg

Dividing the two equation

Tanθ = $\frac{g}{\omega^2R}$
