Which statement is true of an object in equilibrium?

Physics
2 answers:
stepan [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

C. The sum of all forces acting on the object is zero.

Explanation: Any body can be in state of equilibrium when sum of all the forces acting on the body are zero. State of equilibrium is also called as the state of balance. Equilibrium can be static equilibrium (when body is at rest), transitional equilibrium (when no linear motion) and rotational equilibrium (when no circular motion).

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An equilibrium is when all forces are the same or canceled out. So it would have to be c.

A ball of moist clay falls 15.0 m to the ground. It is in contact with the ground for 20.0 ms before stopping. (a) What is the m
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground or moving down

Explanation:

Vf² - Vo² = 2gS

where

Vf = velocity of clay as it hits the ground

Vo = initial velocity of clay = 0

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2 (constant)

S = distance travelled by clay = 15 m

Substituting appropriate values,

Vf² - 0 = 2(9.8)(15)  

Vf = 17.15 m/sec.

Formula to use is,  

V - Vf = aT

where

V = velocity of clay when it stops = 0

Vf = 17.15 m/sec (as determined above)

a = acceleration

T = 20 ms  

Put the values to find acceleration

a=(V-Vf)/T

a=(0-17.15)/20

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground

A wire, 1.0 m long, with a mass of 90 g, is under tension. A transverse wave is propagated on the wire, for which the frequency
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

T = 712.9 N

Explanation:

First, we will find the speed of the wave:

v = fλ

where,

v = speed of the wave = ?

f = frequency = 890 Hz

λ = wavelength = 0.1 m

Therefore,

v = (890 Hz)(0.1 m)

v = 89 m/s

Now, we will find the linear mass density of the wire:

\mu = \frac{m}{L}

where,

μ = linear mass density of wie = ?

m = mass of wire = 90 g = 0.09 kg

L = length of wire = 1 m

Therefore,

\mu = \frac{0.09\ kg}{1\ m}

μ = 0.09 kg/m

Now, the tension in wire (T) will be:

T = μv² = (0.09 kg/m)(89 m/s)²

<u>T = 712.9 N</u>

How long will it take a 2190 W motor to lift a 1.47 x 104 g box, 6.34 x 104 mm vertically.​
Rasek [7]

Answer:

t = 4.17 [s]

Explanation:

We know that work is defined as the product of force by distance.

W = F*d

where:

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

d = distance = 6.34 x 10⁴ [mm] = 63.4 [m]

In order to find the force, we must determine the weight of the box, the weight can be determined by means of the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

w = m*g

where:

m = mass = 1.47 x 10⁴ [g] = 14.7 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

w = 14.7*9.81

w = 144.2 [N]

Therefore the work can be calculated.

W = w*d

W = 144.2*63.4

W = 9142.72 [J] (units of Joules)

Power is now defined in physics as the relationship of work at a given time

P = W/t

where:

P = power = 2190 [W]

t = time [s]

Now clearing t, we have.

t = W/P

t = 9142.72/2190

t = 4.17 [s]

Which si unit whould be most appropriate for describing the length of a shoe?
aniked [119]

Answer:

Milimeters

Explanation:

This kind of question must be checked with everyday elements, in this way we will analyze each of the options until we reach the appropriate:

kilograms can not be because this unit serves to measure the mass not the length.

kilometers (km) is a unit of length, but however it does not serve for this measurement since a km is equivalent to 1000 meters, therefore measuring the length of a shoe with a ruler measuring 1000 meters is very impractical.

milliliters is a unit of volume, and can often be found in the measurement of volume content of liquids, for example 700 milliliters of milk or 1000 milliliters of water. Therefore it is impractical to measure a shoe with a unit of volume.

In this way the way to measure a shoe correctly is using a ruler or measuring instrument graduated in millimeters.
