How do you know that forces are balanced when static friction acts on an object?

Physics
1 answer:
lyudmila [28]3 years ago

By looking at the acceleration of the object.
In fact, Netwon's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass m of the object and its acceleration:
\sum F = ma

So, when static friction is acting on the object, if the object is still not moving we know that all the forces are balanced: in fact, since the object is stationary, its acceleration is zero, and so the resultant of the forces (left term in the formula) must be zero as well (i.e. the forces are balanced).

What is the conductor's resistance if its length is 2m and has a cross-sectional area of 0.7m with a resistivity of4Ωm? a. 1.4 Ω
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The answer is c. 11.42 Ohm

Explanation:

The conductor's resistance is calculated by the formula in the figure.

So, you have to replace the given values into the formula.

Resistance of a conductor is equal to the product of rho by the lengh of the conductor divided the cross-sectional area of the conductor.

R= 4 ohm.m . (2m/o.7m^{2} )\\R=11.42ohm

A student walks (2.9±0.1)m, stops and then walks another (3.9 ±0.2)m in the same directionWith the given uncertainties, what is
Anika [276]

Answer:

The smallest distance the student that the student could be possibly be from the starting point is 6.5 meters.

Explanation:

For 2 quantities A and B represented as

A\pm \Delta A and B\pm \Delta B

The sum is represented as

Sum=(A+B)\pm (\Delta A+\Delta B)

For the the values given to us the sum is calculated as

Sum=(2.9+3.9)\pm (0.1+0.2)

Sum=6.8\pm 0.3

Now the since the uncertainity inthe sum is \pm 0.3

The closest possible distance at which the student can be is obtained by taking the negative sign in the uncertainity

Thus closest distance equals 6.8-0.3=6.5meters

A tire hanging from a tree is at rest. The force of gravity is pulling down on the tire. Another force, called tension, is pulli
Anton [14]

Answer:

body will stop moving if the gravity will be equal to the tension produced in the string so both the forces will cancel the influence of each other leading to the state when the body is in equilibrium
