A waitperson carrying a tray with a platter on it tips the tray at an angle of 12 degrees below the horizontal. If the gravitati

onal force on the platter is 5.0 N, what is the magnitude of the force parallel to the tray that tends to cause the platter to slide down the tray? (Disregard friction.)

Answer:1.039 N

Explanation:

Given

inclination of tray=12^{\circ}

gravitational Force=5 N

Now this gravitational force has two component i.e.

5\sin \theta is parallel to the tray =1.039 N

5\cos \theta is perpendicular to the tray =4.890 N

How does gravity affect balanced/unbalanced forces?
viva [34]

Answer:

The force of gravity pulling downward and the force of the table pushing upwards on the book are of equal magnitude and opposite directions. These two forces balance each other. Yet there is no force present to balance the force of friction. ... Unbalanced forces cause accelerations.

What has alternating electric and magnetic fields that travel in the form of a wave?
8_murik_8 [283]

Option (B)is correct.

Alternating electric and magnetic fields has electromagnetic radiation that travel in the form of a wave.

The varying or alternating electric field produces the varying magnetic field.This varying magnetic field in turn produces varying electric field . Thus these varying electric and magnetic fields travel in the form of electromagnetic waves. These electromagnetic waves travel with the velocity of light.These are transverse in nature.

A bus is moving forward at 20 m/s. A student on the bus throws a tenis ball horizontally at
seraphim [82]

Answer:

D: 35 m/s

Explanation:

The bus is moving at a speed of 20 m/s.

Thus; v_bus = 20 m/s

Tennis ball thrown horizontally towards the front of the bus is given as 15 m/s.. Thus, v_ball = 15 m/s

No, due to the fact that the bus and the ball are moving at the same time, an observer will think the speed is the sum of that of the ball and the bus.

Thus, it will appear to an observer on the sidewalk that the speed is; v_bus + v_ball = 20 + 15 = 35 m/s
