If the forces are balanced what is the resulting acceleration

What are the five basic postulates of kinetic-molecular theory?

lesantik [10]

Explanation:

The five basic postulate of kinetic molecular theory includes:

1) All gases consist of large amount and numbers of tiny particles that are far apart from each other and also relative to their size.

2) The collisions between gas particles and gas particles against container walls is refer to as elastic collision.

3) All gas particles are in a continuous random and rapid motion. They possess kinetic energy which is energy of motion.

4) There are no attractive force between gas particles.

5) The temperature of a gas depends on the average kinetic energy of the gas particle.

Which type of central heating system is often used when heating many buildings from a central location?

Deffense [45]

Steam is often used as a central heating system when heating many buildings froma central location. So the correct option for the given question is option "D". Steam is actually generated ina single room or place mechanically or by useing fossil fuel or solar energy and then it is passed through pipelines to several rooms and buidings. This kind of system is mostly used when heating several rooms or building at once. Electric heaters are normally avoided as the cost of electricity is far higher than any other source of heating.

miv72 [106K]

Complete Question

A 95 kg clock initially at rest on a horizontal floor requires a 650 N horizontal force to set it in motion. After the clock is in motion, a horizontal force of 560 N keeps it moving with a constant velocity. Find the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Answer:

The value for static friction is $\mu_s = 0.60$

The value for static friction is $\mu_k = 0.70$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the clock is $m = 95 \ kg$

The first horizontal force is $F _s = 560 \ N$

The second horizontal force is $F _k = 650 \ N$

Generally the static frictional force is equal to the first horizontal force

So

$F _s = m * g * \mu_s$

=> $560 = 95 * 9.8 * \mu_s$

=> $\mu_s = 0.60$

Generally the kinetic frictional force is equal to the second horizontal force

So

$F _k = m * g * \mu_k$

$650 = 95 * 9.8 * \mu_k$

$\mu_k = 0.70$

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

C. At the instant the ball reaches its highest point.

Explanation:

When a body is thrown up, it tends to come down due to the influence of gravitational force acting on the body. The body will be momentarily at rest at its maximum point before falling. At this maximum point, the velocity of the body is zero and since force acting on a body is product of the mass and its acceleration, the force acting on the body at that point will be "zero"

Remember, F = ma = m(v/t)

Since v = 0 at maximum height

F = m(0/t)

F = 0N

This shows that the force acting on the body is zero at the maximum height.
