First step in using a balance beam scale?

1 answer:

8 0

To find out the weight of the object, you'll need to slide the weight poises until the pointer is at zero again. Start with the two heavier weight poises and then use the lightest one to do the fine tuning. Our triple beam balance and the Ohaus triple beam balance are accurate to 0.1 grams.

A student is swimming south applying a force of 256 N. The water exerts a westward force of 104 N. If the student has a mass of

Answer:

$a=2.9\ m/sec^2$

Explanation:

<u>Net Forces and Acceleration</u>

The second Newton's Law relates the net force $F_r$ acting on an object of mass m with the acceleration a it gets. Both the net force and the acceleration are vector and have the same direction because they are proportional to each other.

$\vec F_r=m\vec a$

According to the information given in the question, two forces are acting on the swimming student: One of 256 N pointing to the south and other to the west of 104 N. Since those forces are not aligned, we must add them like vectors as shown in the figure below.

The magnitude of the resulting force $F_r$ is computed as the hypotenuse of a right triangle

$|F_r|=\sqrt{256^2+104^2}$

$|F_r|=276.32\ Nw$

The acceleration can be obtained from the formula

$F_r=ma$

Note we are using only magnitudes here

$\displaystyle a=\frac{F_r}{m}$

$\displaystyle a=\frac{276.32Nw}{95.3Kg}$

$\boxed{a=2.9\ m/sec^2}$

skad [1K]

Answer:

It's probably the Redshift and Blueshift

Explanation:

The light shifting towards shorter or longer wavelengths as objects in space (stars or galaxies) move closer or farther away from us. This phenomenon is known as the Redshifts and Blueshifts. The concept indicates us that the Universe is expanding.

Hope this helps you!

When you push a 2.00 kg book resting on a tabletop it takes 4.60 N to start the book sliding. What is the coefficient of static

natali 33 [55]

The coefficient of static friction is 0.234.

Answer:

Explanation:

Frictional force is equal to the product of coefficient of friction and normal force acting on any object.

So here the mass of the object is given as 2 kg, so the normal force will be acting under the influence of acceleration due to gravity.

Normal force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Normal force = 2 * 9.8 = 19.6 N.

And the frictional force is given as 4.6 N, then

$Coefficient of static friction = Frictional force/Normal force$

Coefficient of static friction = 4.6 N / 19.6 N = 0.234

So the coefficient of static friction is 0.234.
