Answer:

This happens because of inertia.

Explanation:

Inertia is the ability of a body to remain in its state of rest or relative movement, while an external force is not acting on it.

It is when a body objects to modifying its state of relative rest or movement, including the speed and direction in which this happens.

When a car accelerates, a cup of coffee sitting in a cup-holder spills out onto the rear seats, because it has left its state of rest due to the acceleration force of the car.

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

This happens because the coffee was at rest, at the time when the car accelerates to move forward the container containing the coffee also accelerates in the same direction, the liquid when moving suddenly spills. The same will happen if the car slows down, any sudden movement changes will cause the coffee to spill, understood by sudden movements when it accelerates or slows down.

a gym consists of a rectangular region with a semi-circle on each end. if the perimeter of the room is to be a 200 m running tra
Nikolay [14]

The dimensions of the rectangle are:

l = 50 m

b = 100/\pi m

<h3>What is a perimeter in math?</h3>

The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides.

<h3>How do we find a perimeter of a rectangle?</h3>

The perimeter of a rectangle,denoted by P is given by the formula, P=2l+2b, where l is the length and b is the breadth of the rectangle.

<h3>Given:</h3>

As per the question:

Perimeter of the room is given as P = 200 m

The region is rectangular having a semicircle at each end.

Now,

Let 'l' be the length of the rectangle, 'b' be its breadth and 'r' be the radius of the semi-circle at each end.

Then, Area of the given rectangle, A = lb

Perimeter of the room, P is =\pi r+l+\pi r+l=2\pi r+2l=\pi b+2l

Therefore,  \pi b+2l=200

b=(200-2l)/\pi

Now,

Area, A = l(200-2l)/\pi=(200l-2l^{2} )/\pi

Now, differentiate A w.r.t l:

Again differentiating w.r.t 'l', we get:

d^{2} A/dl^{2} =-4l/\pi< 0

Thus we get maximum are when dA/dl=0

Therefore,

(200-4l)/\pi=0

l = 50 m

Now, from

\pi b+2l=200

\pi b=200-2*50

b=100/\pi

r=b/2=50/\pi

In the Biomedical and Physical Sciences building at MSU there are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor. Each step
Kipish [7]

Answer:

W = 16.4 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

There are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor.

Each step is 16.6 cm tall.

The mass of a person, m = 73.5 kg

We need to find the work done by the person. We know that,

Work done = Fd

Where

d is the displacement, d = 135 × 0.166 = 22.41

So,

W = 73.5 × 10 × 22.41

= 16471.35  J

or

W = 16.4 kJ

So, 16.4 kJ is the work done by the person.

In an electricity experiment, a 1.10 g plastic ball is suspended on a 56.0 cm long string and given an electric charge. A charge
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Tension, T = 0.0115 N                      

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the plastic ball, m = 1.1 g

Length of the string, l = 56 cm

A charged rod brought near the ball exerts a horizontal electrical force F on it, causing the ball to swing out to a 21.0 degree angle and remain there. According to attached figure :

T\cos\theta=mg

T is tension in the string

T=\dfrac{mg}{\cos\theta}\\\\T=\dfrac{1.1\times 10^{-3}\times 9.8}{\cos(21)}\\\\T=0.0115\ N

So, the tension in the string is 0.0115 N.
