A block whose weight is 45 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 36 N is applied to the block. The coefficient of

kinetic and static friction are 0.65 and 0.42, respectively. Will the block move under the influence of the force, and if so, what will be the blocks acceleration?

Answer:

1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

For the block to move, it must first overcome the static friction.

Fs = N μs

Fs = (45 N) (0.42)

Fs = 18.9 N

This is less than the 36 N applied, so the block will move.  Since the block is moving, kinetic friction takes over.  To find the block's acceleration, use Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − N μk = ma

36 N − (45 N) (0.65) = (45 N / 9.8 m/s²) a

6.75 N = 4.59 kg a

a = 1.47 m/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the block's acceleration is 1.5 m/s².

Usually the coefficient of static friction is greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction.  You might want to double check the problem statement, just to be sure.

The correct response that will be used to describe this particular element would be the third option, since all of the other options are incorrect and apply to different elements in their groups. The element is a metal and will react with a non metal.

How does the angular diameter of an object change as you move away from the object?
7nadin3 [17]

Explanation :

Angular diameter of a sphere or a circle shows how large a sphere or a circle appears from a given point. It is the angle between the initial and final positions.

The angular diameter of a given sphere or a circle is given by :

             \delta =2arc\ tan\dfrac{d}{2D}

where \delta is angular displacement

d is actual diameter of object

D is distance to the center of sphere

So, angular displacement is inversely proportional to the distance from the object.

<em>Hence, as we move away from the object the angular diameter of an object gets smaller.</em>

If two point sources of light are being imaged by this telescope, what is the maximum wavelength λ at which the two can be resol
Alex

This question is incomplete.Here is complete one

Consider a telescope with a small circular aperture of diameter 2.0 centimeters. If two point sources of light are being imaged by this telescope, what is the maximum wavelength (lambda) at which the two can be resolved if their angular separation is 3.0x10^-5 radians? Express your answer in nanometers

Answer:

λ =492nm

Explanation:

Given Data

diameter=2.0 cm

angular separation=3.0x10^-5 radians

λ=?

Solution

sin(theta) = 1.22 x λ /D

λ=(0.02×sin(3.0×10⁻⁵))/1.22

λ=492nm
