Answer: Stars

Explanation: Some stars have remained intact since the Big Bang. These stars are shown in something called the HR diagram with portrays the brightness and largeness of the star. Also, white dwarfs and black dwarfs can be traced back which may correspond with the initiation of the universe.

A 160-N child sits on a light swing and is pulled back and held with a horizontal force of 100 N. The magnitude of the tension f
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

T = 190 N

Explanation:

When child is sitting on the swing then the weight of the child is vertically downwards

So it is

F_g = 160 N

now a force of 100 N is acting on the swing in horizontal direction

so it is given as

F_x = 100 N

now the net force is resultant force due to gravity and horizontal force

so it is given as

T = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_g^2}

T = \sqrt{100^2 + 160^2}

T = 190 N

A fireman is sliding down a fire pole. As he speeds up, he tightens his grip on the pole, thus increasing the vertical frictiona
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The fireman will continue to descend, but with a constant speed.

Explanation:

In kinetic friction <em>(which is the case discussed here) </em>since the fireman is already in motion because of a certain force, once the frictional force matches the normal force, the fireman will stop accelerating and continue moving at a constant rate with the original speed he had. We will need a force greater than the normal force acting on the fireman to cause a deceleration.

We need to understand the difference between static friction and kinetic friction.

Static friction occurs in objects that are stationary, while kinetic friction occurs in objects that are already in motion.  

In static friction, when the frictional force matches the weight or normal force of the object, the object remains stationary.

While in kinetic friction, when the frictional force matches the normal force, the object will stop accelerating. This is the case of the fireman sliding down the pole as discussed above.
