Why does a rolling sphere slows down?​

Physics
1 answer:
Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago
4 0
There’s frictional force acting on the sphere, which causes it to gradually slow down, and eventually come to a stop.

Describe the electromagnetic spectrum, electromagnetic waves, and give two examples of different types of electromagnetic waves.
Alex

Answer:

Radio Wave

Micro Wave

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves composed by the perpendicular oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

EM waves have both Electrical and magnetic features.

they travel in the velocity of light (3*10⁸ ms⁻¹)

Electromagnetic spectrum is obtained according to their wave length and the frequency. Due to wave length range it's categorized. Here is the decreasing  order of wave length and increasing order  of different wave types in electromagnetic spectrum

  • Radio Wave
  • Micro Wave
  • IR wave
  • Light Wave
  • UV rays
  • X rays
  • Gamma rays
  • Cosmic rays

A 52.0-kg person, running horizontally with a velocity of +3.63 m/s, jumps onto a 15.2-kg sled that is initially at rest. (a) Ig
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134

Explanation:

Given that:

M = mass of person = 52 kg

m = mass of sled = 15.2 kg

U = initial velocity of person = 3.63 m/s

u = initial velocity of sled = 0 m/s

After collision, the person and the sled would move with the same velocity V.

a) According to law of momentum conservation:

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

MU + mu = (M + m)V

V=\frac{MU+mu}{M+m}

Substituting values:

V=\frac{MU+mu}{M+m}=\frac{52(3.63)+15.2(0)}{52+15.2} =2.81m/s

The velocity of the sled and person as they move away is 2.81 m/s

b) acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

d = 30 m

Using the formula:

V^2=2\mu(gd)\\\mu=\frac{V^2}{2gd} \\\mu=\frac{2.81^2}{2*9.8*30} =0.0134

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow is 0.0134

The opening to a cave is a tall, 30.0-cm-wide crack. A bat is preparing to leave the cave emits a 30.0 kHz ultrasonic chirp. How
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The value is  w =  7.54 \  m        

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The length of the crack is  a =  0.3 \  m

     The  frequency is  f =  30.0 \ kHz =  30 *10^{3} \  Hz

      The distance outside the cave that is being consider is  D =  100 \  m

      The speed of sound is v_s =  340 \  m/s

Generally the wavelength of the wave is mathematically represented as

        \lambda =  \frac{v}f}

=>     \lambda =  \frac{340 }{30*10^{3}}

=>     \lambda = 0.0113 \ m/s

Generally for a  single slit the path difference between the interference patterns of the sound wave and the center  is mathematically represented as  

          y =  \frac{ n *  \lambda * D}{a}

=>     y =  \frac{ 1  *  0.0113 * 100}{0.3}

=>     y = 3.77 \  m

Generally the width of the sound beam is mathematically represented as

         w =  2 *  y

=>      w =  2 *  3.77

=>      w =  7.54 \  m

Imagine you are holding an apple. how could you increase the potential energy of this apple?
Ray Of Light [21]

If you're holding the apple at your waist, lift it to your mouth.
Potential energy relative to any level is proportional to its height
above that level.  Increase that height, and you've increased the
potential energy.

Since energy is conserved ... it never magically appears or
disappears ... you need to tell where that extra energy for the
apple came from.

It's exactly the work you did ... the force of your muscles acting
through the distance you raised the apple ... that became the
additional potential energy that the apple gained.
