Which question should Trudy write

Suppose the coefficient of static friction between a quarter and the back wall of a rocket car is 0.383. At what minimum rate wo

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

25.59 m/s²

Explanation:

Using the formula for the force of static friction:

$f_s = \mu_s N$ --- (1)

where;

$f_s =$ static friction force

$\mu_s =$ coefficient of static friction

N = normal force

Also, recall that:

F = mass × acceleration

Similarly, N = mg

here, due to min. acceleration of the car;

$N = ma_{min}$

From equation (1)

$f_s = \mu_s ma_{min}$

However, there is a need to balance the frictional force by using the force due to the car's acceleration between the quarter and the wall of the rocket.

Thus,

$F = f_s$

$mg = \mu_s ma_{min}$

$a_{min} = \dfrac{mg }{ \mu_s m}$

$a_{min} = \dfrac{g }{ \mu_s }$

where;

$\mu_s = 0.383$ and g = 9.8 m/s²

$a_{min} = \dfrac{9.8 \ m/s^2 }{0.383 }$

$\mathbf{a_{min}= 25.59 \ m/s^2}$

Insulators have very high .

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Resistance to electrical currents

Explanation:

Conductors have low resistance to electrical currents, and are used to "conduct" the flow of electricity.

Insulators have very high resistance and are used to protect us from the flow of electricity.

It takes Mars about ____ Earth years to orbit the Sun.

OlgaM077 [116]

At this distance, and with an orbital speed of 24.077 km/s, Mars takes 686.971 Earth days, the equivalent of 1.88 Earth years, to complete a orbit around the Sun. This eccentricity is one of the most pronounced in the Solar System, with only Mercury having a greater one (0.205).

We divide the electromagnetic spectrum into six major categories of light, listed below. Rank these forms of light from left to

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

gamma rays , X rays, ultraviolet , visible light , infrared, radio waves

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is the set of electromagnetic radiations distributed in their different frequencies or wavelengths, which in turn are related to their energy. If we go from the smallest wavelengths known up to now (because according to physics the electromagnetic spectrum is infinite and continuous) to the longest, the electromagnetic spectrum covers the following radiations:

Gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible light (all the colors we are able to see), infrared, radio waves and microwaves.

Let's make a brief of them:

-Gamma rays: With a wavelength in the order of $10^{-12}m$ , is a type of ionizing radiation capable of penetrating matter quite deeply and is able to cause serious damage to the nucleus of the cells. Inaddiito, these rays are used to sterilize medical equipment and food.

-X rays: With a wavelength between $1m$ and $10km$ . It is invisible to the human eye, capable of crossing opaque bodies and of being an ionizing radiation.

-Ultraviolet light: Whose wavelength is approximately between 100 nm and 380 nm; is a type of electromagnetic radiation that is not visible to the human eye.

-Visible light: This part of the spectrum is located between ultraviolet light and infrared light (380 nm - 780 nm). It should be noted, the fact the only part of the whole electromagnetic spectrum is visible to humans is because the receptors in our eyes are only sensitive to these wavelengths.

-Infrared: This type of radiation is not visible to the human eye, since its wavelengths are outside the visible spectrum (between 700 nm and 1 mm).

These waves can be divided into:

- Near infrared or long wave infrared: it is the least sensitive to color and is easily absorbed by water.

- Medium or medium wave infrared: it is also insensitive to color and easily absorbed by water and many types of plastics and paints.

- Far infrared or short wave infrared: it is more penetrating than the long wave and is good for heating metals, these waves also can pass through clear materials.

This light has many uses, including heating lamps in physiotherapy and medical treatments, heat sensing devices, among others.

-Radio waves: These are a type of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 10 m to 10,000 m. This type of electromagnetic waves is very well reflected in the ionosphere, the layer of the atmosphere through which they travel directly or using repeaters. In addition, they are very useful to transport information, being important in telecommunications. They are used not only for conventional radio transmissions but also in mobile telephony and TV.
