Answer= 12.5 km

0.5 km x km
_______=______
1 min 25 min

Cross multiply
1x=12.5
divide both sides by 1
x=12.5

You traveled 12.5 km

(0.5 km/ 1 min)* 25 min= 12.5 km.

The distance was 12.5 km~

22. State any three features of the electroscope.

MatroZZZ [7]

-1- was created in the 1600 by william gilbert
-2-When the charge is positive, electrons in the metal of the electroscope are attracted to the charge and move upward out of the leaves. This results in the leaves to have a temporary positive charge and because like charges repel, the leaves separate. When the charge is removed, the electrons return to their original positions and the leaves relax
3-

An electroscope is made up of a metal detector knob on top which is connected to a pair of metal leaves hanging from the bottom of the connecting rod. When no charge is present the metals leaves hang loosely downward. But, when an object with a charge is brought near an electroscope, one of the two things can happen.

A 16.2 kg person climbs up a uniform ladder with negligible mass. The upper end of the ladder rests on a frictionless wall. The

S_A_V [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the balance of forces. We will decompose the forces in the vertical and horizontal sense, and at the same time, we will perform summation of torques to eliminate some variables and obtain a system of equations that allow us to obtain the angle.

The forces in the vertical direction would be,

$\sum F_x = 0$

$f-N_w = 0$

$N_w = f$

The forces in the horizontal direction would be,

$\sum F_y = 0$

$N_f -W =0$

$N_f = W$

The sum of Torques at equilibrium,

$\sum \tau = 0$

$Wdcos\theta - N_wLsin\theta = 0$

$WdCos\theta = fLSin\theta$

$f = \frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}$

The maximum friction force would be equivalent to the coefficient of friction by the person, but at the same time to the expression previously found, therefore

$f_{max} = \mu W=\frac{Wd}{Ltan\theta}$

$\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{d}{\mu L})$

Replacing,

$\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{0.9}{0.42*2})$

$\theta = 46.975\°$

Therefore the minimum angle that the person can reach is 46.9°
