Maisie drags a 1kg mass along a table with a Newton meter so that it accelerates at 0.25 m/s. The Newton-meter reads 0.4N, calcu

Applying one newton of force to an object of 1 kg accelerates it by 1 meter per second

maisie applied .4 newtons to the block, so it should be accelerating at .4 m/s
but it actually accelerated at .25 m/s or .25 newtons reached the block

the difference in force applied and force received is .15, which is the force of friction because that's how much force it stopped from reaching the block
force of friction is .15 newtons

How can we magnetise a piece of iron.
liq [111]
Place the magnet at one end of the piece of metal. The magnet must make as much contact with the metal as possible. Place light pressure on the magnet and rub the metal in one direction only. Magnetization will take some time to accomplish so continue rubbing until the iron or steel attracts other pieces of metal.

A rough estimate of the radius of a nucleus is provided by the formula r 5 kA1/3, where k is approximately 1.3 × 10213 cm and A
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Density of 127 I = \rm 1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.

Also, \rm Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.

Explanation:

Given, the radius of a nucleus is given as

\rm r=kA^{1/3}.

where,

  • \rm k = 1.3\times 10^{-13} cm.
  • A is the mass number of the nucleus.

The density of the nucleus is defined as the mass of the nucleus M per unit volume V.

\rm \rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi r^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi (kA^{1/3})^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi k^3A}.

For the nucleus 127 I,

Mass, M = \rm 2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g.

Mass number, A = 127.

Therefore, the density of the 127 I nucleus is given by

\rm \rho = \dfrac{2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g}{\dfrac 43 \times \pi \times (1.3\times 10^{-13})^3\times 127}=1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.

On comparing with the density of the solid iodine,

\rm \dfrac{Density\ of\ ^{127}I}{Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine}=\dfrac{1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3}{4.93\ g/cm^3}=3.63\times 10^{13}.\\\\\Rightarrow Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.

A brick and a feather fall to the earth at their respective terminal velocities. Which objectexperiences the greater force of ai
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Under the reasonable assumption that the brick has more mass than the feather, the brick experiences a greater force of air friction.

Explanation:

<u>Objects at terminal velocity</u>, only under the influence of gravity, have maximized their speed and <u>have an acceleration of zero</u>.  Thus, neither object is accelerating.

Recall Newton's second law: \sum {\vec {F}}=m \vec {a}

Since acceleration for each object is zero, the sum of the force acting on each of those objects must also be zero.

Since the only forces acting on the objects are gravity and the force of air friction, in order to zero out, <u>the force of air friction must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force of gravity</u>.

Recall that near the surface of the earth, F_{gravity}=mg, so <u>the Force of Gravity acting on an object is directly proportional to the object's mass</u>.  <em>(A similar argument could be made even if this were not taking place on the surface of the earth, so long as the objects were the same distance from the object providing gravitational influence).</em>

If the masses of the objects are different, <u>the object with the greater mass will experience</u> a larger force of gravity, and hence <u>a larger force of air friction</u> at terminal velocity.  

Under the reasonable assumption that the brick has more mass than the feather, the brick experiences a greater force of air friction.

what distance is a book from the floor if the book contains 196 joules f potential energy and has a mass of 5 kg?
AleksAgata [21]
E=mgh.   196=5kg*9.81m/s^2*h.  So h=196/(5*9.81)=4m
