Answer:

-No

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of box = 100 kg

Coefficient of friction ,μ= 0.23

We know that friction force depends on the normal force acts on the box

Fr= μ N

When we pull the box then :

Normal force N= mg

Friction force Fr=  μ mg                  

When we push the box :

Lets take pushing force = F

θ =Angle make by pushing force from the vertical line

Normal force

N = mg + F cosθ

Fr= μ ( mg + F cosθ )

The friction force is more when we push the box.That is why this is not easier to push the box.

Therefore answer is ---No

For a ∆x of 0.1mm, what is ∆px, the uncertainty in the transverse momentum of a photon passing through a slit (where uncertainty
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

0.53\times 10^{-30}kgms^{-1}

Explanation:

Uncertainty principle say that the position and momentum can not be measured simultaneously except one relation which is described below,

\Delta x\Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi }

Given that the uncertainty in x is 0.1 mm.

Therefore,

\Delta p=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34} }{4\times 3.14\times 1\times 10^{-4}m }\\\Delta p=0.53\times 10^{-30}kgms^{-1}

Therefore, uncertainty in the transverse momentum of photon is 0.53\times 10^{-30}kgms^{-1}

1<br> Verify the identity. Show your work.<br><br> cot θ ∙ sec θ = csc θ
Fittoniya [83]
To verify the identity, we can make use of the basic trigonometric identities:
cot θ = cos θ / sin θ 
sec θ = 1 / cos <span>θ
csc </span>θ = 1 / sin θ<span>

Using these identities:
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = (cos θ / sin θ ) (<span> 1 / cos </span><span>θ)
</span>
We can cancel out cos <span>θ, leaving us with
</span>cot θ ∙ sec θ = 1 / sin θ
cot θ ∙ sec θ = = csc <span>θ</span>

A girl rolls a basketball across a basketball court. The ball slowly decelerates at a rate of -0.20m/s^2. If the initial velocit
Dafna1 [17]

By equation of motion :

2as=v^2-u^2\\\\s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\s=\dfrac{0^2-2^2}{2\times( -0.2)}\\\\s=10\ m

Now, it is given that it stops after 5 seconds of motion and time at that point is 12:00.

So, time when it started is 11 : 59 : 55.

Therefore, distance travelled is 10 m.

Hence, this is the required solution.

You obtain a 100-W light bulb and a 50-W light bulb. Instead of connecting them in the normal way, you devise a circuit that pla
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

The 50-W bulb glows more brightly than the 100-W bulb

Explanation:

The bulb has a rating of 100 W under 110 V . So it will glow with full brightness when it is fed 110 V . When bulbs are in parallel combination , each bulb receives 110 V . So they glow with full brightness .

When they are in series combination , 110 supply voltage gets distributed between the , thus  , reducing the voltage appearing on each of them less than 110 V . So their brightness is reduced.

resistance = V

Bulb having high wattage rating has low resistance resulting in higher current . In the second case , both have same current as they are in series combination . So more heat will be generated in bulb having more resistance . Since 50 W bulb has higher resistance , it will glow brighter than 100 W bulb.
