Answer:

Normal Force is usually perpendicular to the movement and static friction usually means that there is no movement.

Explanation:

The work donde by any force on an object is equal to the displacement of the object multiplied by the component of the force that is in the direction of the displacement.

Normal force is usually perpendicular to the movement, so there is no component in the direction of the displacement. This is why it is zero in most circumstances.

<em>Static</em> friction on the other hand, usually means that there is no movement at all (it's static). It means that there is no displacement between the object and ground (in most cases). If there is no displacement, there is no work.

I need to choose a theme for my physics assignment My experiment is finding g

Kobotan [32]

<h3>Question:</h3>

How to find g (acceleration due to gravity)

<h3>Solution:</h3>

We know,

Acceleration due to gravity (g)

$= \frac{GM}{ {R}^{2} }$

where, G = Gravitational constant

$= 6.67 \times {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2} \\$

M = Mass of the earth

$= 6 \times {10}^{24} \: kg$

R = Radius of the earth

$= 6.4 \times {10}^{6} m$

Putting these values of G, M and R in the above formula, we get

$g \: = \: \frac{6.67 \times {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2} \times \: 6 \times {10}^{24} \: kg }{(6.4 \times {10}^{6}m {)}^{2} } \\ = 9.8m/ {s}^{2}$

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity is

$9.8m/s ^{2}$

Hope it helps.

A proton is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 2.5 kV and then moves perpendicularly through a uniform 0.60

Bumek [7]

Answer:

1.2cm

Explanation:

V=(2ev/m)^1/2

=(2*1.6*10^19 x2500/ 1.67*10^27)^1/2

=6.2x10^5m/s

Radius of resulting path= MV/qB

= 1.67*10^-27x6.92*10^6/1.6*10^-16 x0.6

=0.012m

=1.2cm

Ultrasonic images are obtained from the inside organs of our body. This process uses which property of sound wave?

Temka [501]

This question involves the concepts of echo, ultrasonic images, ultrasonic sound waves.

The process of ultrasonic images uses the "echo" property of the sound waves.

Echo is the property of the sound wave by the virtue of which the sound wave reflects back to the source of the sound after hitting a surface or an object.

Ultrasonic images are obtained from inside organs of our body. This process involves the use of ultrasonic sound waves that have a frequency greater than 20,000 Hz. These sound waves are out of the range of audible sound by the human ear. When these ultrasonic sound waves are sent in form of pulses into the human body by the use of probes, they reflect back from the tissues of different organs to the probe. The probe then records the reflection properties of these sound waves and displays them in form of an image, known as ultrasonic images.

Two protons are released from rest, with only the electrostatic force acting. Which of the following statements must be true abo

ycow [4]

Answer:

(A)

Explanation:

We know , electric potential energy between two charge particles of charges "q" and "Q" respectively is given by kqQ/r where r is the distance between them.

Since the two charged particles are moving apart, the distance between them (r) increases and thus electrical potential energy decreases.

A downhill skier was able to move 560 meters in 25 seconds. What is the skier’s average speed? (Round your answer to the nearest

anastassius [24]

The average speed of a moving body is given by:
average speed = total distance / total time
average speed = 560 / 25
22.4 meters per second

The skier is traveling at an average velocity of 22.4 meters per second.
