Answer:

The minimum mass of m2 before m1 starts sliding across the table is 57 grams

Explanation:

The given mass on the table, m1 = 250 g

The coefficient of friction between the table and the mass, m1, μ = 0.228

Therefore, the friction force, F_F between the mass m1 and the table is given as follows;

F_F = W₁ × μ

Where;

W₁ = The weight of m1  = Mass of m1 × Acceleration due to gravity

W₁ = 250 g × 9.81 m/s² = 0.25 kg × 9.81 m/s² = 2.4525 N

W₁ = 2.4525 N

Which gives;

F_F = 2.4525 N × 0.228 = 0.55917 N

F_F = 0.55917 N

By equilibrium of forces, the weight, W₂, of the mass m2 at which the mass m1 starts sliding is equal to the frictional force F_F of m1 or 0.55917 N

Therefore, for slipping to occur, we have;

W₂ = 0.55917 N

However, W₂ = Mass of m2 × Acceleration due to gravity

∴ W₂ = 0.55917 N = m2 × 9.81 m/s²

0.55917 N = m2 × 9.81 m/s²

m2 = 0.55917 N/(9.81 m/s²) = 0.057 kg = 57 grams

The minimum mass of m2 before m1 starts sliding across the table is 57 grams.

When different resistors are connected in parallel across an ideal battery, we can be certain that: a) their equivalent resistan
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

b) the potential difference across each is the same.

Explanation:

When resistors are connected in parallel with each other

then the terminals of all the resistors will connected across the terminals of the battery

So we know the potential difference of the battery is same across all the resistors

So we can say that the equivalent resistance of all the resistance is

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{1}{R_3}

so its not the mean of all resistors

also we know that the resistance are all different so power across each resistance is different given as

P = \frac{V^2}{R}

also current in each resistance is also different and given by

i = \frac{V}{R}

so correct answer will be

b) the potential difference across each is the same.

The quantity of matter in an object. More specifically, it is the measure of the inertia that an object exhibits in response to
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Mass

Explanation:

The mass of an object expresses the amount of matter it comprises. Which implies that objects with higher mass contains higher matter compared to objects with lesser masses. Thereby it determines the measure of inertia experienced by an object when a force is applied to change its direction of motion, or to set it in motion when at rest, or bring it to rest when in motion.

The mass of an object the same no matter its location, and it is measured in kilograms.

What is necessary to designate a position? A. a reference point B. a direction C. fundamental units D. motion E. all of these
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

E. all of these

Explanation:

The designation of a point in space all the points that necessary

- reference point

- a direction

- fundamental units

- a direction

- motion

all are necessary to designate a point in space. Hence option E is correct.

For example in simple harmonic motion we need to specify all the above factors of the object in order to designate the position of the object.
