An electric circuit can have no current when a switch is closed. True False

Physics
1 answer:
igomit [66]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: False

Explanation: When a switch is closed the circuit is closed and thus the flow of current is on while when the switch is open, the circuit is open, and therefore there will be no flow of current in the circuit.

3. A 2kg wooden block whose initial speed is 3 m/s slides on a smooth floor for 2 meters before it comes to a
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Calculating Coefficient of friction is 0.229.

Force is 4.5 N that keep the block moving at a constant speed.

Explanation:

We know that speed expression is as \mathrm{V}^{2}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2}+2 . \mathrm{a} . \Delta \mathrm{s}.

Where, {V}_{i} is initial speed, V is final speed, ∆s displacement and a acceleration.

Given that,

{V}_{i} =3 m/s, V = 0 m/s, and  ∆s = 2 m

Substitute the values in the above formula,

0=3^{2}-2 \times 2 \times a

0 = 9 - 4a

4a = 9

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} is the acceleration.

Calculating Coefficient of friction:

\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=\mu \times \mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{g}

Compare the above equation

\mu \times m \times g=m \times a

Cancel "m" common term in both L.H.S and R.H.S

\text { Equation becomes, } \mu \times g=a

\text { Coefficient of friction } \mu=\frac{a}{g}

\mathrm{g} \text { on earth surface }=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

\mu=\frac{2.25}{9.8}

\mu=0.229

Hence coefficient of friction is 0.229.

calculating force:

\text { We know that } \mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=2 \times 2.25 \quad(\mathrm{m}=2 \mathrm{kg} \text { given })

F = 4.5 N

Therefore, the force would be <u>4.5 N</u> to keep the block moving at a constant speed across the floor.

A spacecraft of mass 1500 kg orbits the earth at an altitude of approximately 450 km above the surface of the earth. Assuming a
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

1.28 x 10^4 N

Explanation:

m = 1500 kg, h = 450 km, radius of earth, R = 6400 km

Let the acceleration due to gravity at this height is g'

g' / g = {R / (R + h)}^2

g' / g = {6400 /  (6850)}^2

g' = 8.55 m/s^2

The force between the spacecraft and teh earth is teh weight of teh spacecraft

W = m x g' = 1500 x 8.55 = 1.28 x 10^4 N
