. If FP remains constant but the angle θ is increased, which of the following is true at some later time?
A.The force of friction between the block and surface will increase.

B.The force of friction between the block and surface will decrease.

C.The weight of the block will increase.

Answer:

B.The force of friction between the block and surface will decrease.

Explanation:

The force of friction is given by

F_s = \mu N

where \mu is the coefficient of friction and N is the normal force.

When the student pulls on the block with force F_p at an angle \theta, the normal force on the block becomes

N  = Mg- F_psin(\theta)

and hence the frictional force becomes

F_s = \mu (Mg- F_psin(\theta)).

Now, as we increase \theta, sin(\theta) increases which as a result decreases the normal force Mg- F_psin(\theta), which also means the frictional force decreases; Hence choice B stands true.

<em>P.S: Choice D is tempting but incorrect since the weight </em>W=mg<em> is independent of the external forces on the block. </em>

A 62kg box is lifted 12 meters off the ground. How much work is done?
Temka [501]

Answer: 7291.2 joules

Explanation:

Work is done when force is applied on an object over a distance.

Thus, Workdone = Force X distance

Since Distance moved by box = 12 metres

mass of box = 62kg

Acceleration due to gravity when box was lifted is represented by g = 9.8m/s^2

Recall that Force = Mass x acceleration due to gravity

i.e Force = 62kg x 9.8m/s^2

= 607.6 Newton

So, Workdone = Force X Distance

Workdone = 607.6 Newton X 12 metres

Workdone = 7291.2 joules

Thus, 7291.2 joules of work was done.

Why polarization does not occur in dry cell?​
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Manganese oxide prevents polarisation in dry cells. - Polarization is a defect that occurs in simple electric cells due to the accumulation of hydrogen gas around the positive electrode. ... - MnO2 reacts with H2 and forms water as byproduct, so depolarization doesn't occur.

A petrol tanker ha 2800kg when empty and hold 30m3 0f petrol when full. The denity of petrol i 740kg/m3. Calculate the ma of the
White raven [17]

The mass of the tanker with petrol is 250000 N.

We are given that,

Mass of tanker= m =2800 kg

Volume of petrol= v =30 m³

Density of petrol= d =740 kg/m³

Thus , mass , density and volume relation can be given as,

density= mass/ Volume

Mass = Density × Volume

Mass = 740× 30

Mass = 22200 kg

The mass of the petrol is 22200 kg.

Total mass of tanker with petrol = Mass of petrol + Mass of tanker

Total mass of tanker with petrol= 22200+ 2800 kg

Total mass of tanker with petrol= 25000 kg

Total weight of the tanker with petrol = Mass of tanker full of petrol× g

Where, weight = m × g ,(g =10m/s²)

Total weight of the tanker with petrol= 25000×10 = 250000 N

Therefore, the mass of petrol, total mass of tanker with petrol and weight of tanker with petrol would be  22200 kg, 25000 kg and 250000 N.
