Answer:

J J Thomson

Explanation:

J J Thomson in the year 1898 was the one who proposed the model of the atom that described electrons scattered throughout a ball of positive charge. This was the first atomic model , he proposed that atom is like a sphere with radius 10^{-10} m , where the positive charge is uniformly distributed. The electrons are embedded into it so as to give the most stable electrostatic arrangement.

If the coefficient of kinetic friction between a 22 kg kg crate and the floor is 0.27, what horizontal force is required to move

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

58.27 N

Explanation:

the data we have is:

mass: $m=22kg$

coefficient of friction: $\mu =0.27$

and we also know the acceleration of gravity is $g=9.81m/s^2$

We need to do an analysis of horizontal and vertical forces acting on the object:

-------

Vertically the forces acting on the object:

Normal force $N$ (acting up from the object)

weight: $w=mg$ (acting down from)

so the sum of forces in the vertical axis "y" are:

$F_{y}=N-w\\F_{y}=N-mg$

from Newton's second Law we know that $F=ma$ , so:

$ma_{y}=N-mg$

and since the object is not accelerating in the vertical direction (the movement is only horizontal) $a_{y}=0$ , and:

$0=N-mg\\N=mg$

-----------

now let's analyze the horizontal forces

frictional force: $f= \mu N$ and since $N=mg$ --> $f=\mu mg$

force to move the object: $F$

and the two forces just mentioned must be opposite, thus the sum of forces in the "x" axis is:

$F=ma_{x}=F-f\\ma_{x}=F-\mu mg$

and we are told that the crate moves at a steady speed, thus there is no acceleration: $a_{x}=0$

and we get:

$0=F-\mu mg\\F=\mu mg$

substituting known values:

$F=(0.27)(22kg)(9.81m/s^2)\\F=58.27N$

In which parking situations should you use your parking brake?

VMariaS [17]

Answer:
-You should use your parking brake when on a hill/mountain with a huge drop because your car can’t slide off the edge.
-When there is a flood where your car is sitting because the water can’t carry your car

Does air resistance affect the motion of a falling object differently when the initial velocity of the object is greater?

DIA [1.3K]

Yes. Even greater. Air resistance or drag becomes harder the faster an object goes. This is why when cars reach their max speed they don't accelerate as fast, because they are pushing harder against the wind. If I take a tennis ball and shoot it down a bottomless pit, a 400 kph, the drag will slow the ball down till it reaches terminal velocity.
