49. In what direction does the force of friction act?

Physics

Frictional force offers the resistance to the applied force opposing its motion. Thus, it always acts in the direction opposite to that of the object in motion. If force is applied to the left, then friction acts in the right.

Which explanation best describes a wave?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

C. a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and without a transfer of matter

Explanation:

A wave is any disturbance that transfers energy from one location to the other via a substance called medium. It is important to note that a wave only conveys energy and not matter. For example, sound wave is a type of wave that carries sound energy from one place to another via mediums such as water, air etc.

Hence, according to this question, a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and WITHOUT A TRANSFER OF MATTER.

Two resistors, of R1 = 3.11 Ω and R2 = 6.15 Ω, are connected in series to a battery with an EMF of 24.0 V and negligible interna
Firlakuza [10]
Part (a):
1- Since the resistors are in series, therefore, the total resistance is the summation of the two resistors.
Therefore:
Rtotal = R1 + R2 = 3.11 + 6.15 = 9.26 ohm

2- Since the two resistors are in series, therefore, the current flowing in both is the same. We will use ohm's law to get the current as follows:
V = I*R
V is the voltage of the battery = 24 v
I is the current we want to get
R is the total resistance = 9.26 ohm
Therefore:
24 = 9.26*I
I = 24 / 9.26
I = 2.59 ampere

Part (b):
To get the voltage across the second resistor, we will again use Ohm's law as follows:
V = I*R
V is the voltage we want to get
I is the current in the second resistor = 2.59 ampere
R is the value of the second resistor = 6.15 ohm
Therefore:
V = I*R
V = 2.59 * 6.15
V = 15.9285 volts

Hope this helps :)

A student throws a ball upward with a velocity of 35 m/s. What is the acceleration of the ball as it rises to the top of its arc
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball as it rises to the top of its arc equals 9.807 meters per square second.

Explanation:

Let suppose that maximum height of the arc is so small in comparison with the radius of the Earth.

Since the ball is launched upwards, then the ball experiments a free-fall motion, that is, an uniform accelerated motion in which the element is accelerated by gravity. Then, the acceleration experimented by the motion remains constant at every instant and position.

Besides, the gravitational acceleration in the Earth and, in consequence, the acceleration of the ball as it rises to the top of its arc equals 9.807 meters per square second.
