Why does a lead of a pencil becomes smaller after use brainly people plplplsss help

Pencil lead is made up of graphite. These graphite particles stick to the fiber in the paper when you write. So what happens is it transfers from the pencil to the paper. When you write you're literally rubbing the graphite off the pencil.


I hope this explanation will help you out.

Consider an object rolling off of your lab bench. Discuss how you might be able to make measure- ments to determine its initial
guapka [62]

Answer:

measure the position every so often with a stopwatch

Explanation:

A possible method of measurement is to place a measuring tape along the path and measure the position every so often with a stopwatch, with this we can make a graph of position against time and by extrapolation find the initial velocity.

This is a method used in measurements of uniform movements of bodies

A box weighing 43.2 N is pulled horizontally until it slides uniformly lat a constant
GREYUIT [131]

Your diagram should include four forces:

• the box's weight, pointing down (magnitude <em>w</em> = 43.2 N)

• the normal force, pointing up (mag. <em>n</em>)

• the applied force, pointing the direction in which the box is sliding (mag. <em>p</em> = 6.30 N, with <em>p</em> for "pull")

• the frictional force, pointing oppoiste the applied force (mag. <em>f</em> )

The box is moving at a constant speed, so it is inequilibrium and the net forces in both the vertical and horizontal directions sum to 0. By Newton's second law, we have

<em>n</em> + (-<em>w</em>) = 0

and

<em>p</em> + (-<em>f</em> ) = 0

So then the forces have magnitudes

<em>w</em> = 43.2 N

<em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = 43.2 N

<em>p</em> = 6.30 N

<em>f</em> = <em>p</em> = 6.30 N

Using a horizontal force of 60 N, a wagon is pushed horizontally across the floor a distance of 12 meters at a constant speed of
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

a) The work done by the force is 720 joules, b) The power supplied by the force is 138 watts.

Explanation:

a) Since force is uniform and parallel to the direction of motion, the work (W), in joules, done by the force (F), in newtons, is defined by this formula:

W = F\cdot s (1)

Where s is the travelled distance, in meters.

If we know that F = 60\,N and s = 12\,m, then the work done by the force is:

W = F\cdot s

W = (60\,N)\cdot (12\,m)

W = 720\,J

The work done by the force is 720 joules.

b) And an expression for the power supplied by the force (\dot W), in watts, is concieved by differentiating (1) in time:

\dot W = F\cdot \dot s

Where \dot s is the speed of the wagon, in meters per second.

If we know that F = 60\,N and \dot s = 2.3\,\frac{m}{s}, then the power supplied by the force is:

\dot W = F\cdot \dot s

\dot W = (60\,N)\cdot \left(2.3\,\frac{m}{s} \right)

\dot W = 138\,W

The power supplied by the force is 138 watts.
