What’s contact force ?

Physics
2 answers:
kodGreya [7K]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Contact force is any force that requires contact.  An object that exerts a force on another object by touching it is exerting a contact force.  Examples of contact force are friction and normal force.

Examples of a non-contact force are gravity and magnetism.

A rod 7.0 m long is pivoted at a point 2.0 m from the left end. A downward force of 50 N acts at the left end, and a downward fo
kicyunya [14]

If the rod is in rotational equilibrium, then the net torques acting on it is zero:

∑ τ = 0

Let's give the system a counterclockwise orientation, so that forces that would cause the rod to rotate counterclockwise act in the positive direction. Compute the magnitudes of each torque:

• at the left end,

τ = + (50 N) (2.0 m) = 100 N•m

• at the right end,

τ = - (200 N) (5.0 m) = - 1000 N•m

• at a point a distance d to the right of the pivot point,

τ = + (300 N) d

Then

∑ τ = 100 N•m - 1000 N•m + (300 N) d = 0

⇒   (300 N) d = 1100 N•m

⇒   d ≈ 3.7 m

Objects in space that are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line ___________.
nikdorinn [45]
The best answer is A) <span>keep moving at a constant velocity until some forces act on them

As the man you're probably tired of hearing about said:

"Every object persists in its state of rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless a new force acts upon it" 
This is Isaac Newton's 1st law of motion, or the law of inertia. 

Put more simply, objects in motion tend to stay in motion, and tend the maintain the same velocity (direction and speed) and objects at rest tend to stay at rest. </span>

what is the difference in the charges on a balloon rubbed in your hair and a glass  rod rubbed with silk? why?
lbvjy [14]
The balloon steals electrons from your hair, leaving the hair positively charged, and the balloon negatively charged. It causes the hair to be apart from each other, because they have the same charge. Glass has a weaker hold on electrons, and silk absorbs the lost electrons.
