Both gravity helps you stay onto the earth and not float away. Friction also helps you not slip and slide and when two or more forces act upon each other.

It's nighttime, and you've dropped your goggles into a 3.2-mm-deep swimming pool. If you hold a laser pointer 1.1 mm above the e
Savatey [412]

Answer: 5.30m

Explanation:

depth of pool = 3.2 m

i = 67.75°

Using snell's law, we have,

n₁ × sin(i) = n₂ × 2 × sin(r)

n₁ = 1, n₂ =1.33, r= 44.09°

Hence,

Distance of Google from edge if pool is:

2.2 + d×tan(r) = 2.2 + (3.2 × tan(44.09°) =5.30m

An object with an initial velocity of 10 m/s accelerates at a rate of 3.5 m/s2 for 8 seconds. How far will it have traveled duri
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Distance, d = 192 meters

Explanation:

We have,

Initial velocity of an object is 10 m/s

Acceleration of the object is 3.5 m/s²

Time, t = 8 s

We need to find the distance travelled by the object during that time. Second equation of motion gives the distance travelled by the object. It is given by :

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

d=10\times 8+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.5\times 8^2\\\\d=192\ m

So, the distance travelled by the object is 192 meters.

for any object suspended by any number of ropes, wires, or chains, how is the total amount of tension (tension in each rope adde
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

To calculate the tension on a rope holding 1 object, multiply the mass and gravitational acceleration of the object. If the object is experiencing any other acceleration, multiply that acceleration by the mass and add it to your first total.

Explanation:

The tension in a given strand of string or rope is a result of the forces pulling on the rope from either end. As a reminder, force = mass × acceleration. Assuming the rope is stretched tightly, any change in acceleration or mass in objects the rope is supporting will cause a change in tension in the rope. Don't forget the constant acceleration due to gravity - even if a system is at rest, its components are subject to this force. We can think of a tension in a given rope as T = (m × g) + (m × a), where "g" is the acceleration due to gravity of any objects the rope is supporting and "a" is any other acceleration on any objects the rope is supporting.[2]

For the purposes of most physics problems, we assume ideal strings - in other words, that our rope, cable, etc. is thin, massless, and can't be stretched or broken.

As an example, let's consider a system where a weight hangs from a wooden beam via a single rope (see picture). Neither the weight nor the rope are moving - the entire system is at rest. Because of this, we know that, for the weight to be held in equilibrium, the tension force must equal the force of gravity on the weight. In other words, Tension (Ft) = Force of gravity (Fg) = m × g.

Assuming a 10 kg weight, then, the tension force is 10 kg × 9.8 m/s2 = 98 Newtons.
