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

The girl makes a microscope with a 3.0 cm focal length objective and a 5.0 cm eyepiece. The microscope tube length is 10 cm. Use
saul85 [17]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Magnification. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something. This enlargement is quantified by a calculated number also called "magnification".

The overall magnification of microscope is

M = \frac{Nl}{f_ef_0}

Where

N = Near point

l = distance between the object lens and eye lens

f_0= Focal length

f_e= Focal of eyepiece

Given that the minimum distance at which the eye is able to focus is about 25cm we have that N = 25cm

Replacing,

M = \frac{25*10}{3*5}

M = 16.67\approx 17\\

Therefore the correct answer is C.

What kind of light results when the total spectrum of refracted light is recombined? violet green white red?
ElenaW [278]
Hello
The final light will be white. In fact, each color of the visible spectrum is an electromagnetic wave with its own specific frequency and wavelength. White, instead, does not have a specific frequency: it is the sum of all the different wavelengths of the visible spectrum. Therefore, when recombining the spectrum of the refracted light all the different frequencies recombine together, and their sum gives white light.

Problem: A barbell consists of two small balls, each with mass m at the ends of a very low mass rod of length d. The barbell is
zepelin [54]

Answer:

mass of ball 1=m1

mass of ball 2=m2

velocity of ball=r1w1

velocity of ball 2=r2w2

Total angular momentum=m1*v1+m2*v2

but

v1=r1*w1

v2=r2*w2

Substitute values in above equation

Total angular momentum of the system=m1*r1*w1+m2*r2*w2

Can anyone help me with this question please​
JulsSmile [24]

Explanation:

V=u+at

where,

v=final speed

u=initial speed,(starting speed)

a=acceleration

t=time

  1. v=u+at = 6=2+a*2

6=2+2a

2a=6-2

2a=4

a=4/2 = 2

a =2

2. to find time taken

v=u+at

25=5*2t

2t=25-5

2t=20

t=20/2

t=10sec

3. finding final speed

v=u+at

v=4+10*2

=4+20

v=24m/sec

5.v=u+at

=5+8*10

=5+80

V=85m/sev

6. v=u+at

8=u+4*2

8=u+8

U=8/8

u=1

these are your missing values
