Lynna [10]2 years ago

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.

Electrical wire with a diameter of .5 cm is wound on a spool with a radius of 30 cm and a height of 24 cm.
kow [346]

Answer:

a)   # lap = 301.59 rad , b)   L = 90.48 m

Explanation:

a) Let's use a direct proportions rule (rule of three). If one turn of the wire covers 0.05 cm, how many turns do you need to cover 24 cm

          # turns = 1 turn (24 cm / 0.5 cm)

         # laps = 48 laps

Let's reduce to radians

        # laps = 48 laps (2 round / 1 round)

       # lap = 301.59 rad

b) Each lap gives a length equal to the length of the circle

          L₀ = 2π R

          L = # turns L₀

          L = # turns 2π R

          L = 48 2π 30

          L = 9047.79 cm

          L = 90.48 m

A charge q produces an electric field of strength 2E at a distance of d away. Determine the electric field strength at a distanc
Alja [10]

The electric field strength of a point charge is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the charge ... a lot like gravity.

If the magnitude of the field is (2E) at the distance 'd', then at the distance '2d', it'll be (2E)/(2²).  That's (2E)/4 = 0.5E .

From the following statements about mechanical waves, identify those that are true for transverse mechanical waves only, those t
Dominik [7]

'In transverse waves, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for transverse waves only.

'In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the flow of energy' is true for longitudinal waves only.

'Many wave motions in nature are a combination of longitudinal and transverse motion' is true for both longitudinal and transverse waves.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Longitudinal waves are those where the direction of propagation of particles are parallel to the medium' particles. While transverse waves propagate perpendicular to the medium' particles.

As wave motions are assumed to be of standing waves which comprises of particles moving parallel as well as perpendicular to the medium, most of the wave motions are composed of longitudinal and transverse motion.

So the option stating the medium' particle moves perpendicular to the direction of the energy flow is true for transverse waves. Similarly, the option stating the medium' particle moves parallel to the direction of flow of energy is true for longitudinal waves only.

And the option stating that wave motions comprises of combination of longitudinal and transverse motion is true for both of them.
