The Friction Force that acts on a sliding bookcase is -120 N

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Frictional force is the force developed by the two surfaces where they contact and slide against each other. They mainly affected by amount of force impelled them together and by the angle and position of the object.
  •             Frictional Force F = Coefficient of friction * normal force
  • At a constant velocity, there will be no acceleration and the net force will be zero.

               Net Force        = m * a = 0

               120 - Friction   = 0

               Friction Force  = -120 N

slega [8]

Answer:

Part a)

v = -(8.33\hat j + 9.33\hat i)\times 10^6 m/s

Part b)

E = 4.4 \times 10^{-13} J

Explanation:

As per momentum conservation we know that there is no external force on this system so initial and final momentum must be same

So we will have

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 + m_3v_3 = 0

(5 \times 10^{-27})(6 \times 10^6\hat j) + (8.4 \times 10^{-27})(4 \times 10^6\hat i) + (3.6 \times 10^{-27}) v = 0

(30\hat j + 33.6\hat i)\times 10^6 + 3.6 v = 0

v = -(8.33\hat j + 9.33\hat i)\times 10^6 m/s

Part b)

By equation of kinetic energy we have

E = \frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2 + \frac{1}{2}m_3v_3^2

E = \frac{1}{2}(5 \times 10^{-27})(6\times 10^6)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(8.4 \times 10^{-27})(4 \times 10^6)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(3.6 \times 10^{-27})(8.33^2 + 9.33^2) \times 10^{12}

E = 9\times 10^{-14} + 6.72 \times 10^{-14} + 2.82\times 10^{-13}

E = 4.4 \times 10^{-13} J

Why are the very first stars thought to have been much more massive than the sun? (a the clouds that made them were much more ma
pashok25 [27]
I think the correct answer would be that the temperature of the clouds that made the very first stars where thought to be higher since the clouds are made up of hydrogen and helium. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
