Creep:
(of a thing) move very slowly at an inexorably steady pace.
"the fog was creeping up from the marsh"
(of a plant) grow along the ground or other surface by means of extending stems or branches.
"tufts of fine leaves grow on creeping rhizomes"
(of a plastic solid) undergo gradual deformation under stress.

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction is 0.29

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of the merry-go-round, r = 4.4 m

The operator turns on the ride and brings it up to its proper turning rate of one complete rotation every 7.7 s.

We need to find the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round that will allow the cat to stay in place, without sliding. For this the centripetal force is balanced by the frictional force.

$\mu mg=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

v is the speed of cat, $v=\dfrac{2\pi r}{t}$

$\mu=\dfrac{4\pi^2r}{gt^2}\\\\\mu=\dfrac{4\pi^2\times 4.4}{9.8\times (7.7)^2}\\\\\mu=0.29$

So, the least coefficient of static friction between the cat and the merry-go-round is 0.29.

Two equally charged tiny spheres of mass 1.0 g are placed 2.0 cm apart. When released, they begin to accelerate away from each o

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135 μC

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 1.0

Distance = 2.0 cm

Acceleration = 414 m/s²

We need to calculate the magnitude of charge

Using newton's second law

$F= ma$

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

Put the value of F

$a=\dfrac{kq^2}{mr^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$414=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times q^2}{1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}$

$q^2=\dfrac{414\times1.0\times10^{-3}\times(2.0\times10^{-2})^2}{9\times10^{9}}$

$q^2=1.84\times10^{-14}$

$q=0.135\times10^{-6}\ C$

$q=0.135\ \mu C$

Hence, The magnitude of the charge on each sphere is 0.135μC.

What net force would be necessary to cause a block of wood with a mass of 2.5 kg to accelerate at a rate of 3.0 m/s2

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

mass = 2.5 kg

acceleration = 3.0 m/s²

We have

force = 2.5 × 3.0 = 7.5

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Circuit one will have more current than circuit two

Explanation:

I am assuming that you have to see which circuit has the greater current in this case. Well, this is the perfect example of Ohm's Law, which states the following -

V = IR,

where V = voltage / potential difference, I = current, and R = resistance

If one circuit has twice the voltage and half the resistance of the second circuit, as voltage is directly proportional to the resistance -

2V = I( 1 / 2R ),

4V = IR,

I = 4V / R

Whereas in the second circuit -

V = IR,

I = V / R

As you can note, voltage is directly proportional to the current ( I ) as well as the resistance. The only difference between the two formulas I = 4V / R, and I = V / R is the difference in the voltage. With the voltage being 4 times greater in the first circuit, and current is 4 times greater in the first circuit as well.

<u><em>Hence, circuit one will have more current than circuit two</em></u>
