I believe this is electron degeneracy, because the star is essentially having too many reactions too fast and collapses in on itself eventually.

What is the maximum value the string tension can have before the can slips? The coefficient of static friction between the can a

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

T= 38.38 N

Explanation:

Here

mass of can = m = 3 kg

g= 9.8 m/sec2

angle θ = 40°

From figure we see the vertical and horizontal component of tension force T

If the can is to slip - then horizontal component of tension force should become equal to force of friction.

First we find force of friction

Fs= μ R

where

μ = 0.76

R = weight of can = mg = 3 × 9.8 = 29.4 N

Now horizontal component of tension

Tx= T cos 40 = T× 0.7660 N

==>T× 0.7660 = 29.4

==> T= 38.38 N

The stiffness of a particular spring is 42 N/m. One end of the spring is attached to a wall. A force of 2 N is required to hold

Liula [17]

Answer:

$L_{o}=0.1224m$

Explanation:

Given data

Force F=2 N

Length L=17 cm = 0.17 m

Spring Constant k=42 N/m

To find

Relaxed length of the spring

Solution

From Hooke's Law we know that

$F_{spring}=k_{s}|s|\\F_{spring}=k_{s}(L-L_{o})\\ 2N=(42N/m)(0.17m-L_{o})\\2=7.14-42L_{o}\\-42L_{o}=2-7.14\\42L_{o}=5.14\\L_{o}=(5.14/42)\\L_{o}=0.1224m$

An ice skater accelerates backward for 5.0 second to final speed of 12m/s. If the acceleration backward was at a a rate of 1.5m/

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Final velocity, v = 12m/s

Time, t = 5 seconds

Acceleration, a = 1.5m/s²

To find the initial velocity, we would use the first equation of motion.

$V = U + at$

Where;

V is the final velocity.

U is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

12 = U + 1.5*5

12 = U + 7.5

U = 12 - 7.5

Initial velocity, U = 4.5m/s
