<span>The force of static friction F equals the coefficient of friction u times the normal force N the object exerts on the surface: F = uN. N is the centripetal force of the wall on the people; N = ma_N, where m is the mass of the people and a_N is the centripetal acceleration.
The people will not slip down if F is greater than the force of gravitation: F = uma_N > mg, or u > g/a_N.
a_N is the velocity v of the people squared divided by the radius of the room r: a_N = v^2/r.
The circumference of the room is 2 pi r = 28.3 m. So v = 28.3 * 0.8 m/sec = 22.6 m/sec.
So a_N = 114 m/sec^2.
g = 9.81 m/sec^2, so u must be at least 9.81/114 = 0.086.</span>
Answer:
Choice A: approximately
, assuming that the two pistons are connected via some confined liquid to form a simple machine.
Explanation:
Assume that the two pistons are connected via some liquid that is confined. Pressure from the first piston:
.
By Pascal's Principle, because the first piston exerted a pressure of
on the liquid, the liquid will now exert the same amount of pressure on the walls of the container.
Assume that the second piston is part of that wall. The pressure on the second piston will also be
. In other words:
.
To achieve a force of
, the surface area of the second piston should be:
.
Answer:
no they can't talk to each other bcoz of the lack of atmosphere.

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
Total distance = (77km + 66km) = 143 kilometers
Time to cover the distance = 2 hours
Average speed = (143 km) / (2 hours) = 71.5 km per hour
Answer:
t = 2.13 10-10 s
, d = 6.39 cm
Explanation:
For this exercise we use the definition of refractive index
n = c / v
Where n is the refraction index, c the speed of light and v the speed in the material medium.
The refractive indices of ice and crown glass are 1.13 and 1.52, respectively, therefore the speed of the beam in the material medium is
v = c / n
As the beam strikes perpendicularly, the beam path is equal to the distance of the leaves, there is no refraction, so we can use the uniform motion relationships
v = d / t
t = d / v
t = d n / c
Let's look for the times on each sheet
Ice
t₁ = 1.4 10⁻² 1.31 / 3 10⁸
t₁ = 0.6113 10⁻¹⁰ s
Crown glass (BK7)
t₂ = 3.0 10⁻² 1.52 / 3.0 10⁸
t₂ = 1.52 10⁻¹⁰ s
Time is a scalar therefore it is additive
t = t₁ + t₂
t = (0.6113 + 1.52) 10⁻¹⁰
t = 2.13 10-10 s
The distance traveled by this time in a vacuum would be
d = c t
d = 3 10⁸ 2.13 10⁻¹⁰
d = 6.39 10⁻² m
d = 6.39 cm
