A solid ball is released from rest and slides down a hillside that slopes downward at an angle 51.0 ∘ from the horizontal. what

minimum value must the coefficient of static friction between the hill and ball surfaces have for no slipping to occur?

In order for the object not to slip, the component of the weight parallel to the surface must be equal to the frictional force (which acts in the opposite direction):
F_{//}= F_a

The parallel component of the weight is:
F_{//} = mg \sin \alpha
where m is the object mass and \alpha is the angle of the inclined plane.

The frictional force is
F_a = \mu m g \cos \alpha
where \mu is the coefficient of static friction.

Equalizing the two forces, we have
mg \sin \alpha = \mu m g \cos \alpha
from which we find
\mu =  \tan \alpha

and so, in our problem the coefficient of static friction must be
\mu=\tan 51^{\circ} =1.23

A scientist directs monochromatic light toward a single slit in an opaque barrier. The light has a wavelength of 580 nm and the
vredina [299]

Answer:

a) 9.72 mm

b) 4.86 mm

Explanation:

wave length of light  λ is  580 nm = 580 \times 10⁻⁹ m

Width of slit d = 0.215\times 10⁻³ m

Distance of screen D  = 1.8 m.

Width of one fringe = \frac{\lambda\times D}{d}

Putting the values we get fringe width

= \frac{580\times10^{-9}\times1.8}{.000315}

=4.86 mm.

a) Width of central maxima = 2 times width of one fringe

= 2 times 4.86

=9.72 mm

b) width of each fringe except central fringe  is same , no matter what the order is.Only brightness changes .

So width of either of the two first order bright fringe will be same and it will be  

= 4.86 mm.

A football player kicks a football in a field goal attempt. When the football reaches its maximum height, what is the relationsh
Stels [109]

At position of maximum height we know that the vertical component of its velocity will become zero

so the object will have only horizontal component of velocity

so at that instant the motion of object is along x direction

while if we check the acceleration of object then it is due to gravity

so the acceleration of object is vertically downwards

so it is along y axis

so here these two physical quantities are perpendicular to each other

so correct answer would be

<em>C)At the maximum height, the velocity and acceleration vectors are perpendicular to each other. </em>

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 53.0 cm . The explorer finds that
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

12.4 m/s²

Explanation:

L = length of the simple pendulum = 53 cm = 0.53 m

n = Number of full swing cycles = 99.0

t = Total time taken = 128 s

T = Time period of the pendulum

g = magnitude of gravitational acceleration on the planet

Time period of the pendulum is given as

T = \frac{t}{n}

T = \frac{128}{99}

T = 1.3 sec

Time period of the pendulum is also given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

1.3 = 2(3.14) \sqrt{\frac{0.53}{g}}

g = 12.4 m/s²
