Conservation in this case means that it doesn't change. Momentum isn't created or destroyed, but it remains constant.

Two blocks of masses m and M are connected by a string and pass over a frictionless pulley. Mass m hangs vertically, and mass M

horsena [70]

Answer:

$sin\theta - \mu_k cos\theta = \frac{m}{M}$

$sin\theta - \mu_k cos\theta = 1$

Explanation:

Force of friction on M mass so that it will move down the inclined plane is given as

$F_f = \mu Mgcos\theta$

now if it is moving down the inclined plane at constant speed

so we will have

$Mgsin\theta - T - \mu mgcos\theta = 0$

on other side the mass "m" will go up at constant speed

so we have

$T - mg = 0$

so we have

$Mgsin\theta = \mu Mgcos\theta + mg$

so we have

$sin\theta - \mu_k cos\theta = \frac{m}{M}$

for special case when m = M

then we have

$sin\theta - \mu_k cos\theta = 1$

Think about the various energy sources such as the sun, fossil fuels, water, wind, and nuclear power. What is the energy source

lakkis [162]

Answer:

The energy source that powers my home is gotten from burning of fossil fuels.

No! I do not like this energy source.

I personally would prefer solar source of electricity

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are fuels gotten from the decomposition of dead organisms over time, under intense heat and pressure. They are usually found buried beneath the earth's crust where they have been formed and trapped.

Most electricity generating stations generate electricity by burning fossil fuels like natural gas and gasoline to generate electricity. The problem with fossil fuels are the various part that they play in increasing carbon footprints in the atmosphere. The excess carbon in the atmosphere has been a major contributor to the global warming of planet Earth.

My preference for solar energy source is first due to its abundance unlike the fossil fuels that are already diminishing in storage beneath the earth's crust. Also, solar energy is a clean source of energy that does not leave any damage on earth from its use. It also promises to be a cheap source of power in the future with advances in solar technologies.

A 14.0 gauge copper wire of diameter 1.628 mm carries a current of 12.0 mA . A) What is the potential difference across a 1.80 m

Serga [27]

Answer: a) 139.4 μV; b) 129.6 μV

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the Ohm law given by:

V=R*I whre R= ρ *L/A where ρ;L and A are the resistivity, length and cross section of teh wire.

Then we have:

for cooper R=1.71 *10^-8* 1.8/(0.001628)^2= 11.61 * 10^-3Ω

and for silver R= 1.58 *10^-8* 1.8/(0.001628)^2=10.80 * 10^-3Ω

Finalle we calculate the potential difference (V) for both wires:

Vcooper=11.62* 10^-3* 12 * 10^-3=139.410^-6 V

V silver= 10.80 10^-3* 12 * 10^-3=129.6 10^-6 V

Identical isolated conducting spheres 1 and 2 have equal charges and are separated by a distance that is large compared with the

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

F = 0.1575 N

Explanation:

When the third sphere touches the first sphere, the charge is distributed between both spheres, then now the first sphere has only half of his original charge.

In this moment then

Sphere one has a charge = Q/2

Sphere three has a charge = Q/2

Now when the third sphere touches the second sphere again the charge is distributed in a manner that both sphere has the same charge.

How the total charge is Q = Q/2 + Q = 3/2Q, when the spheres are separated each one has 3/4Q

Sphere two has a charge = 3/4Q

Sphere three has a charge = 3/4Q

The electrostatic force that acts on sphere 2 due to sphere 1 is:

F = $\frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2} }{r^{2} }$
