At one particular moment, a 15.0 kg toboggan is moving over a horizontal surface of snow at 4.40 m/s. After 7.50 s have elapsed,

the toboggan stops. Use a momentum approach to find the magnitude of the average friction force (in N) acting on the toboggan while it was moving.

Answer:

f = 8.8\,N

Explanation:

The moment equation of the toboggan is:

m_{t}\cdot v_{o} - f\cdot \Delta t = 0

The average friction force is:

f=\frac{m_{t}\cdot v_{o}}{\Delta t}

f = \frac{(15.0\,kg)\cdot (4.40\,\frac{m}{s} )}{7.50\,s}

f = 8.8\,N

A charge is divided q1 and (q-q1)what will be the ratio of q/q1 so that force between the two parts placed at a given distance i
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

q / q_{1} = 2, assuming that q_{1} and (q - q_{1}) are point charges.

Explanation:

Let k denote the coulomb constant. Let r denote the distance between the two point charges. In this question, neither k and r depend on the value of q_{1}.

By Coulomb's Law, the magnitude of electrostatic force between q_{1} and (q - q_{1}) would be:

\begin{aligned}F &= \frac{k\, q_{1}\, (q - q_{1})}{r^{2}} \\ &= \frac{k}{r^{2}}\, (q\, q_{1} - {q_{1}}^{2})\end{aligned}.

Find the first and second derivative of F with respect to q_{1}. (Note that 0 < q_{1} < q.)

First derivative:

\begin{aligned}\frac{d}{d q_{1}}[F] &= \frac{d}{d q_{1}} \left[\frac{k}{r^{2}}\, (q\, q_{1} - {q_{1}}^{2})\right] \\ &= \frac{k}{r^{2}}\, \left[\frac{d}{d q_{1}} [q\, q_{1}] - \frac{d}{d q_{1}}[{q_{1}}^{2}]\right]\\ &= \frac{k}{r^{2}}\, (q - 2\, q_{1})\end{aligned}.

Second derivative:

\begin{aligned}\frac{d^{2}}{{d q_{1}}^{2}}[F] &= \frac{d}{d q_{1}} \left[\frac{k}{r^{2}}\, (q - 2\, q_{1})\right] \\ &= \frac{(-2)\, k}{r^{2}}\end{aligned}.

The value of the coulomb constant k is greater than 0. Thus, the value of the second derivative of F with respect to q_{1} would be negative for all real r. F\! would be convex over all q_{1}.

By the convexity of \! F with respect to \! q_{1} \!, there would be a unique q_{1} that globally maximizes F. The first derivative of F\! with respect to q_{1}\! should be 0 for that particular \! q_{1}. In other words:

\displaystyle \frac{k}{r^{2}}\, (q - 2\, q_{1}) = 0<em>.</em>

2\, q_{1} = q.

q_{1} = q / 2.

In other words, the force between the two point charges would be maximized when the charge is evenly split:

\begin{aligned} \frac{q}{q_{1}} &= \frac{q}{q / 2} = 2\end{aligned}.

What does special relativity reveal about the speed of light relative to its source?
Vladimir [108]

Regardless of the source's mobility, light travels at the same speed.

<h3>What makes special relativity so crucial?</h3>

In the calculating and interpretation of high-velocity phenomena, as well as on our methods of thinking, Einstein's special relativity has had a significant influence on the area of physics. Today, we have a considerably better knowledge of space and time than we did at the start of the century.

<h3>Why is special relativity thus named?</h3>

Because it exclusively uses inertial frames to apply the concept of relativity, the theory is known as "special". General relativity, which Einstein created, applies the principle broadly, that is, to any frame, and this theory takes the gravitational forces into account.

A manufacturer selected a metal to use in producing a lightweight button for clothing. A metal that has a density of 2.71 g/cm3
Natali5045456 [20]

Just find the density of every metal and select the one with a density of 2.71 g/cm³ . This is:

Metal 1

ρ = m/V

ρ = 22.1 g / 3 cm³

ρ = 7.367 g / cm³

Metal 2

ρ = m/V

ρ = 42 g / 4 cm³

ρ = 10.5 g / cm³

Metal 3

ρ = m/V

ρ = 9.32 g / 5 cm³

ρ = 1.864 g / cm³

Metal 4

ρ = m/V

ρ = 8.13 g / 3 cm³

ρ = 2.71 g / cm³

<h2>R / Metal 4 was selected.</h2>
