You mean like a box sitting on a table.

One force is the force of gravity, pulling downward on the box.

Now, you know that the forces acting on the box must be balanced, because
if they're not, then the box would be accelerating.  But it's just sitting there, so
there must be some other force, just exactly the right strength and direction to
exactly cancel the force of gravity on the box, so that the net force on it is zero.

The other force is the force of the table pushing upward on the box.  It's called
the "normal force".

A particle of unit mass moves in a potential V(x)= ax^2+b/x^2 . Where a and b are constnts. Calcuate the angular frequency of sm
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Potential Energy is given by

U(x)=ax^2+\frac{b}{x^2}

And Force is given by

F=-\frac{\mathrm{d} U}{\mathrm{d} x}

Particle will be at equilibrium when Potential Energy is either minimum or maximum

F=-\left ( 2ax-\frac{2b}{x^3}\right )

i.e.ax=\frac{b}{x^3}

x_0=(\frac{b}{a})^{0.25}

So angular Frequency of small oscillation is given by

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{U''(x)}{m}}

for m=1

we get    \omega =\sqrt{\frac{U''(x_0)}{1}}

U''(x_0)=2a+6a= 8a

\omega =\sqrt{8a}

How is plastic deformation related to high temperature and pressure?
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Plastic deformation of the cutting edge occurs when the tool material softens at high temperature and begins to flow under the pressure of the cutting forces. ... With cemented carbides, the higher the percentage of the binding phase (usually cobalt), the greater will be the deformation.
