Kinetic friction since the object starts moving

Answer:

That the maximum static frictional force is 15 N

Explanation:

The static frictional force is the force of friction that acts on an object at rest on a surface, when the object is pushed by an external force. The static frictional force acts in the opposite direction to the external force, preventing the object to start moving unless the external force overcomes it.

Due to its nature, the magnitude of the static frictional force varies between zero (if no external force is applied) to a maximum value, defined as

F_s = \mu mg

where \mu is the coefficient of static friction, m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

The object starts to move only when the magnitude of the external force becomes larger than the maximum value of the static frictional force. In this problem, this happens when the external force is 15 N, so we can say that the maximum value of the static frictional force is 15 N.

A small uniform disk and a small uniform sphere are released simultaneously at the top of a high inclined plane, and they roll d
barxatty [35]

Answer:

(D) the sphere

Explanation:

The bodies given are Disk and Solid sphere (uniform sphere)

Moment of inertia of the bodies are

I(disk) = \frac{MR^2}{2}

I(sphere) = \frac{2MR^2}{5}

Since the moment of inertia of sphere is less than that of disk, therefore sphere will reach the bottom first.

Chapter 16, Problem 63. A person is standing in a room at 18 ◦C. The exposed surface area and skin temperature of the person are
Juliette [100K]

Answer:Q=248.011 W

Explanation:

Given

Temperature of Room T_{\infty }=18^{\circ}\approx 291 K

Area of Person A=1.7 m^2

Temperature of skin T=32^{\circ}\approx 305 K

Heat transfer coefficient h=5 W/m^2.k

Emissivity of the skin and clothes \epsilon =0.9

\Delta T=32-18=14^{\circ}

Total rate of heat transfer=heat Transfer due to Radiation +heat transfer through convection

Heat transfer due radiation Q_1=\epsilon \sigma A(T^4-T_{\infty }^4 )

where \sigma =stefan-boltzman\ constant

Q_1=0.9\times 5.687\times 10^{-8}\times 1.7\times (305^4-291^4)

Q_1=129.01 W

Heat Transfer due to convection is given by

Q_2=hA(\Delta T)

Q_2=5\times 1.7\times 14=119 W

Q=Q_1+Q_2

Q=129.01+119=248.011 W

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given mass of piston \left ( m\right )

no. of moles =n

Given Pressure remains same

Temperature changes from T_1 to T_2

Work done\left ( W\right ) is given by=\int_{V_1}^{V_2}PdV

W=P\left ( V_2-V_1\right )

also PV_1=nRT_1

PV_2=nRT_2

W=nR\left ( T_2-T_1\right )

Biologists use optical tweezers to manipulate micron-sized objects using a beam of light. In this technique, a laser beam is foc
vekshin1

Answer:

Explanation:

Part A) Using

light intensity I= P/A

A= Area= π (Radius)^2= π((0.67*10^-6m)/(2))^2= 1.12*10^-13 m^2

Radius= Diameter/2

P= power= 10*10^-3=0.01 W

light intensity I= 0.01/(1.12*10^-13)= 9*10^10 W/m^2

Part B)  Using

I=c*ε*E^2/2

rearrange to solve for E= \sqrt{((I*2)/(c*ε))

c is the speed of light which is 3*10^8 m/s^2

ε=permittivity of free space or dielectric constant= 8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1

I= the already solved light intensity= 8.85*10^10 W/m^2

amplitude of the electric field E= \sqrt{(9*10^10 W/m^2)*(2) / (3*10^8 m/s^2)*(8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1)

---> E= \sqrt{(1.8*10^11) / (2.66*10^-3) = \sqrt{(6.8*10^13) = 8.25*10^6 V/m
