balandron [24]3 years ago
6 0

The forces on the  y axis are:

N-mgcos(60)=0   , wich becomes

N=mgcos(60)

Rember that the friction force is always contrary to the motion of an object and its formula is  f=μ * N

The forces in the x axis are:

-f + mgsin(60)= m * a

-μ*mgcos(60) + mgsin(60)=m*a  ,

μ = ( m*a - mgf=μ[sin(60) )/ ( mgcos(90) )

Setler [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Option: D. Gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.

<u>Explanation: </u>

When a car accelerates from a standing start, the crash test dummy appears to be pressed backward into the seat cushion because the gravity is pulling the crash test dummy in the direction the car is moving.  

Basically when the car is starting, the person inside is in static position and the car is going to move. So it is putting a force on the person to move on the same speed. But as the person is sitting static hence gravity is pulling him behind from moving. Hence, The dummy appears to be pressed backward.

Calculate the solubility (in m units) of ammonia gas in water at 298 k and a partial pressure of 2.50 bar . the henry's law cons
Eduardwww [97]
Henry's Law (formulated in 1803 by William Henry) states that aa constant temperature, the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure exerted by that gas on the liquid.
 Mathematically it can be formulated as
 C = H⨯P
 being:
 C: the molar concentration of dissolved gas A,
 P: the partial pressure of it
 H: Henry's constant
 Substituting:
 C = P * H
 C = (2.50 * 0.9869) * 58.0
 C = 143.1
 Answer:
 the solubility (in m units) is
 C = 143.1

During a spring vacation, it rained on 13 days. When it rained in the morning, the afternoon was sunny. Every rainy afternoon wa
hammer [34]

Answer:

The holiday lasted for 18 days.

Explanation:

Let's assume the number of days are as following:

let the rain in the morning and lovely afternoon = X days

Clear morning and rain in the afternoon = Y days

No rain in the morning and in the afternoon = Z days

Now according to the question

Number of days with rain = X + Y = 13 days

Number of days with clear mornings = Y + Z = 11 days

Number of days with clear afternoons = X + Z = 12 days

Solving above 3 equations, we get

X = 7,  Y = 6 and  Z = 5

Now  total number of days on holiday = X+Y+Z = 7+6+5 =18

Hence, total number of days on holiday = 18 days.

Explain why the reflection of light off ground glass changes from diffuse to specular if you spill water on it
Basile [38]
Because when you spill water on it, the reflection comes from the surface of the water, not the ground glass.
