Answer:

The helium contained in the Sun's atmosphere was produced by fusion of hydrogen to helium in the Sun's core. Since planets including the sun where all formed at the same time, Jupiter's atmosphere also contains Helium.

Explanation:

1) the helium in the suns atmosphere from the original helium and any helium the sun has produced from the nuclear fusion of hydrogen.

2) the helium present in Jupiter's atmosphere came from the helium in the matter that produced our solar system.

3) the helium found in the suns core comes only from the nuclear fusion of hydrogen

The floor of a railroad flatcar is loaded with loose crates having a coefficient of static friction of 0.320 with the floor. If

mart [117]

Answer: 29.50 m

Explanation: In order to calculate the higher accelation to stop a train without moving the crates inside the wagon which is traveling at constat speed we have to use the second Newton law so that:

f=μ*N the friction force is equal to coefficient of static friction multiply the normal force (m*g).

f=m.a=μ*N= m*a= μ*m*g= m*a

then

a=μ*g=0.32*9.8m/s^2= 3.14 m/s^2

With this value we can determine the short distance to stop the train

as follows:

x= vo*t- (a/2)* t^2

Vf=0= vo-a*t then t=vo/a

Finally; x=vo*vo/a-a/2*(vo/a)^2=vo^2/2a= (49*1000/3600)^2/(2*3.14)=29.50 m

How would you compare and contrast the 3 types of friction?

vlabodo [156]

Rolling friction . the force that slows down the movement of a rolling object
sliding friction.
Sliding friction : The opposing force that comes into play when one body is actually sliding over the surface of the other body is called sliding friction. e.g. A flat block is moving over a horizontal table.

Kinetic or dynamic friction: If the applied force is increased further and sets the body in motion, the friction opposing the motion is called kinetic friction

A small metal ball is suspended from the ceiling by a thread of negligible mass. The ball is then set in motion in a horizontal

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Time taken, $T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l\ cos\theta}{g}}$

Explanation:

It is given that, a small metal ball is suspended from the ceiling by a thread of negligible mass. The ball is then set in motion in a horizontal circle so that the thread’s trajectory describes a cone as shown in attached figure.

From the figure,

The sum of forces in y direction is :

$T\ cos\theta-mg=0$

$T=\dfrac{mg}{cos\theta}$

Sum of forces in x direction,

$T\ sin\theta=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$mg\ tan\theta=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$ .............(1)

Also, $r=l\ sin\theta$

Equation (1) becomes :

$mg\ tan\theta=\dfrac{mv^2}{l\ sin\theta}$

$v=\sqrt{gl\ tan\theta.sin\theta}$ ...............(2)

Let t is the time taken for the ball to rotate once around the axis. It is given by :

$T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}$

Put the value of T from equation (2) to the above expression:

$T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{\sqrt{gl\ tan\theta.sin\theta}}$

$T=\dfrac{2\pi l\ sin\theta}{\sqrt{gl\ tan\theta.sin\theta}}$

On solving above equation :

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l\ cos\theta}{g}}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A father fashions a swing for his children out of a long rope that he fastens to the limb of a tall tree. As one of the children

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by:

$a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r}$

Where:

$v^{2}$ : is the tangential speed = 9.50 m/s

r: is the distance = 6.00 m

Hence, the centripetal acceleration is:

$a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r} = \frac{(9.50 m/s)^{2}}{6.00 m} = 15.04 m/s^{2}$

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

I hope it helps you!

Which graph illustrates constant speed and velocity?

boyakko [2]

The correct graph is D.

The graph A is a straight line sloping downwards and it shows that the speed of the body is decreasing at a constant rate. Therefore, this s a graph of a body that is under a constant deceleration.

The graph B is a straight line which slopes upwards. Hence the graph shows that the speed of the body increases at a constant rate. Therefore, this is a graph of a body that is accelerating at a constant rate.

The graph C is curved line, which curves upwards. The slope of the curve increases with time. This is therefore, a graph of a body which is under increasing acceleration.

The graph D, however is a straight line parallel to the time axis. The speed of the body has the same value at all times. Therefore, Graph D is the graph which shows the motion of a body with constant speed.
