Two rocks are moving through empty space in a straight line at the same speed. One has a mass of 10 kg, the other has a mass of

50 kg. Which statement about the rocks is true?
A.
Both will be stopped by the same amount of force acting against them.



B.
The one with less mass takes more force to stop.



C.
The one with greater mass takes more force to stop.



D.
Both will stop on their own without any force acting on them.

A and D are definitely wrong because the two rocks have different masses, so it leaves us with B and C. The most logical answer to the question is
C <span>The one with greater mass takes more force to stop.

Una bola de 1 kg gira alrededor de un circulovrtical en el extremo de un cuerda. El otro extremo de la cuerda esta fijo en el ce
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

La diferencia entre las tensiones máxima y mínima es de 19.614 newtons.

Explanation:

Puesto que la bola gira en un círculo vertical, existe claramente una diferencia entre las tensiones debido a la influencia de la gravedad y la tensión que resulta de la aceleración centrípeta experimentada por la masa. La máxima tensión ocurre cuando la bola se encuentra en el nadir (o la sima) del trayecto circular, la cual se describe por la Segunda Ley de Newton:

T_{max} - m\cdot g = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{L}

En cambio, la mínima tensión aparece cuando la bola se encuentra en el cénit (o la cima) del trayecto circular, descrita por la misma ley de Newton:

T_{min} + m\cdot g = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{L}

Donde:

T_{min}, T_{max} - Tensiones mínima y máxima, medidas en newtons.

m - Masa de la bola, medida en kilogramos.

g - Constante gravitacional, medida en metros por segundo al cuadrado.

L - Distancia con respecto al eje de rotación, medida en metros.

v - Rapidez tangencial, medido en metros por segundo.

Se elimina la aceleración centrípeta de ambas expresiones por igualación:

T_{min} + m\cdot g = T_{max} - m\cdot g

Ahora, la diferencia entre las tensiones máxima y mínima es:

T_{max} - T_{min} = 2\cdot m \cdot g

Si m = 1\,kg y g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, entonces:

T_{max} - T_{min} = 2\cdot (1\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

T_{max}-T_{min} = 19.614\,N

La diferencia entre las tensiones máxima y mínima es de 19.614 newtons.

How will you charge a metal sphere by the process of induction?
zzz [600]
<span>A Conducting Sphere Is On Top Of An Insulating Stand. So A Negatively Charged Tube Is Brought Near The Neutral Sphere Then It Forces Electron Movement From The Left To The Right Side Of The Sphere. Once Touched By The Ground, The Electrons Leave The Sphere. When The Tube Is Moved Away, There's An Overall Positive Charge Left On The Sphere.</span>
