A chair of mass 12.0 kg is sitting on the horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force F

= 40.0 N that is directed at an angle of 37.0∘ below the horizontal, and the chair slides along the floor. (a) Draw a clearly labeled free-body diagram for the chair. (b) Use your diagram and Newton’s laws to calculate the normal force that the floor exerts on the chair

Answer:

Explanation:

mass, m = 12 kg

Force, F = 40 N

θ = 37° below the horizontal

(a)

Diagram is attached

(b) Let N be the normal reaction

According to the diagram

N + F Sin θ = m g

N = mg - F Sin θ

N = 12 x 9.8 - 40 x Sin 37

N = 117.6 - 24.07

N = 93.53

magine that two balls, a basketball and a much larger exercise ball, are dropped from a parking garage. If both the mass and rad
DerKrebs [107]

Without counting wind resistance, They will both reach the ground at the same time. If we apply the concept of kinematics, such as the equation vf^2=vi^2 + 2ad. This equation doesn't count how big or how heavy the mass is, it only focuses on how fast where they in the start and how far are both of them from the ground. So if they both have the same distance and same initial veloctity, then they will reach the ground at the same time.

For example, Try dropping a pen and a paper(Vertically) at the same height, you'll see they'll reach the ground at the same time.

If you count wind resistance, the heavier ball will hit the ground faster, because the air molecules will resist the lighter ball compared to the heavier ball.

As an object moves from point A to point B only two forces act onit: one force is nonconservative and does -30 J of work, the ot
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. On the one hand we have that the work done by the non-conservative force is equivalent to -30J while the work done by the conservative force is 50J.

This leads to the direct conclusion that the resulting energy is 20J.

The conservative force is linked to the movement caused by the sum of the two energies, therefore there is an increase in kinetic energy. The decrease in the mechanical energy of the system is directly due to the loss given by the non-conservative force, therefore there is a decrease in mechanical energy.

Therefore the correct answer is A. Kintetic energy increases and mechanical energy decreases.

GREYUIT [131]

Answer: Pieces of minerals, rocks, plant and animal remains.

Explanation: Pieces of minerals, rocks, plant and animal remains. whether or not patterns cause flow rates of rivers to vary. sand settles from faster-moving water;smaller costs of silt and clay that form up mud settle from slower moving water.

"In a pure substance all the particles must be identical; therefore pure substances are composed only of elements." Do you agree
kenny6666 [7]

I do not agree with the statement.
The "substance" can be a compound.  It's "pure"
as long as there's nothing else in it but its name.

'Pure' water is 100% H₂O with nothing else in it.
'Pure' table salt is 100% NaCl with nothing else in it.
'Pure' carbon dioxide is 100% CO₂ with nothing else in it.

These example substances are all compounds, not elements.

If the Earth and distant stars were stationary (motionless) in space, what would we observe about the wavelength from these star
dangina [55]
1) In the first case, the correct answer is
<span>A.Wavelengths measured would match the actual wavelengths emitted.
In fact, the stars are not moving relative to Earth, so there is no shift in the measured wavelength.

2) In this second case, the correct answer is
</span><span>A.Wavelengths measured would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted.
</span>in fact, since the stars in this case are moving towards the Earth, then apparent frequency of their emitted light will be larger than the actual frequency, because of the Doppler effect, according to the formula:
f'= \frac{c}{c+v_s} f_0
where f0 is the actual frequency, f' the apparent frequency, c the speed of light and vs the velocity of the source (the stars) relative to the obsever (Earth). Vs is negative when the source is moving towards the observer, so the apparent frequency f' is larger than the actual frequency f0. But the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency, so the apparent wavelength will be shorter than the actual wavelength.
