Answer:

a)15 N

b)12.6 N

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of block (wt)= 21 N

μs = 0.80 and μk = 0.60

We know that

Maximum value of static friction given as

Frs = μs m g = μs .wt

by putting the values

Frs= 0.8 x 21 = 16.8 N

Value of kinetic friction

Frk= μk m g = μk .wt

By putting the values

Frk= 0.6 x 21 = 12.6 N

a)

When T = 15 N

Static friction Frs= 16.8 N

Here the value of static friction is more than tension T .It means that block will not move and the value of friction force will be equal to the tension force.

Friction force = 15 N

b)

When T= 35 N

Here value of tension force is more than maximum value of static friction that is why block will move .We know that when body is in motion then kinetic friction will act on the body.so the value of friction force in this case will be 12.6 N

Friction force = 12.6 N

How we will measure centimeters
Bingel [31]

Answer:

  • .

Explanation:

——»To measure centimeters, we can use ruler.

  • Use a ruler with the side marked either cm or mm. Align the edge of the object with the first centimeter line on the ruler, then find the length in whole centimeters, or the larger numbers on the ruler.

You have landed on an unknown planet, newtonia, and want to know what objects will weigh there. you find that when a certain too
AleksandrR [38]
Refer to the diagram shown.

Because the surface is frictionless, the resistive for, R, is zero.

Let m = the mass of the object.
Let a =  acceleration due to the applied force.
Therefore
12.7 N = (m kg)*(a m/s²)
a = 12.7/m  m/s²

The object travels  16.1 m in 2.5 s, starting from rest. Therefore
16.1 N = (1/2)*(12.7/m m/s²)*(2.5 s)² = 39.6875/m  N
m = 16.1/39.6875 = 0.4057 kg

For freefall, let g =  acceleration due to gravity.
The time to fall from 10.3 m is 2.88 s, therefore
10.3 m = (1/2)*(g m/s²)*(2.88 s)² = 4.1472g m
g = 10.3/4.1472 = 2.484 m/s²

Answer:
The gravitational acceleration on the planet is 2.5 m/s² (nearest tenth)

If an object falling freely were somehow equipped with an odometer to measure the distance it travels, then the amount of distan
ioda

Answer:c

Explanation:

Given

object is falling Freely with an odometer

Suppose it falls with zero initial velocity

so distance fallen in time t is given by

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

here u=0 and t=time taken

h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

for t=1 s

h_1=\frac{1}{2}g

for t=2 s

h_2=\frac{1}{2}g(2)^2=\frac{4}{2}g=2g

distance traveled in 2 nd sec=2g-\frac{1}{2}g=\frac{3}{2}g

for t=3 s

h_3=\frac{1}{2}g(3)^2=\frac{9}{2}g

distance traveled in 3 rd sec=\frac{9}{2}g-2g=\frac{5}{2}g

so we can see that distance traveled in each successive second is increasing
