When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some poi

nt "break loose" and start to accelerate down the board.The box begins to slide once the component of gravity acting parallel to the boardequals the force of static friction. Which of the following is the most general explanation for why the box accelerates down the board?(A) The force of kinetic friction is smaller than that of static friction, but Fg remains the same.(B) Once the box is moving, Fg is smaller than the force of static friction but larger than the force of kinetic friction.(C) Once the box is moving, Fg is larger than the force of static friction.(D) When the box is stationary, Fg equals the force of static friction, but once the box starts moving, the sliding reduces the normal force, which in turn reduces the friction.

I feel like it expresses time, but if there is another answer and they say otherwise, then they are probably right.

When you whirl a can at the end of a string in a circular path, what is the direction of the force that acts on the can
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Toward the centre of the circular path

Explanation:

The can is moved in a circular path: this means that it is moving by circular motion (uniform circular motion if its tangential speed is constant).

In order to keep a circular motion, an object must have a force that pushes it towards the centre of the circular trajectory: this force is called centripetal force, and its magnitude is given by

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where m is the mass of the object, v its tangential speed, r the radius of the trajectory. This force always points towards the centre of the circular path.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer: 2940 J

Explanation: solution attached:

PE= mgh

Substitute the values:

PE= 10kg x 9.8 m/s² x 30 m

= 2940 J

The gravitational force between the charged constituents of the atom is negligible compared with the electric force between them
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: The initial force is reduced a factor 1/4 when the separation between charge is doubled

Explanation: As it well known the electric force between two charges is given by:

Finitial=k*q1*q2/d^2 where d is the distance between charges and k is a constant

if the distance is doubled this means 2*dinitial thus the new force is equal to F initial* 1/4

The old rubber boot has two leaks. The top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. What is the velocity of the water coming
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Leak 1 = 3.43 m/s

Leak 2 = 2.42 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. 

Let height H = 0.3m and the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

From the figure, the angle of the leak 1 will be approximately equal to 45 degrees. While the leak two can be at 90 degrees.

Using the third equation of motion under gravity, we can calculate the velocity of leak 1 and 2

Find the attached files for the solution and figure
