Answer:

c. probablistic view of nature.

Explanation:

According to the problem of particle in a box in one dimension. If the particle energy E is taken less than the height of the barrier V.

Then with the help of classical mechanics it can be prove that the particle can not cross the barrier but according to the quantum mechanics, there is a small but a finite probability to cross the barrier.

Therefore by the above discussion it can be concluded that quantum mechanics can be thought as a probablistic view of nature.

A 'velocity' is built out of a speed and a direction.

The only item on that list that has a speed and a direction is the first one. The speed is 30 m/s and the direction is south.

How does inertia affect the motion of an object?

Furkat [3]

Inertia affects the motion of an object as follows:

When an object is in motion, it will continue to be in the same state unless otherwise some outside force is being applied to it. Thus, inertia affects the motion of an object. It restricts some other force being acted upon the object.

But mass of an object is directly proportional to inertia. So when the inertia is more on an object, it means that the object has more mass. For example, if there are two similar bricks, one that is made up of mortar and the other one is made of Styrofoam.

To identify which brick is made of Styrofoam without lifting the bricks, push both the bricks with equal force, the one that has less resistance tends to move faster. This means that it has less inertia and hence less mass.

Complete Question

The diagram of with this question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The value is $v = -6.543 \^ i + 9.47 \^ j + 0 \^ k$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the rock is $m = 0.250 \ kg$

The length of the string is $L = 0.75 \ m$

The angle the string makes horizontal is $\theta = 11.9^o$

The angle which the projection of the string onto the xy -plane makes with the positive x-axis is $\phi = 34.6^o$

The angular velocity of the rock is $w = 2.50 rev/s = 2.50 * 2\pi =15.7 \ rad/s$

Generally the radius of the circle made by the length of the string is mathematically represented as

$r = L cos(\theta )$

=> $r = 0.75 cos(11.9 )$

=> $r = 0.734 \ m$

Generally the resultant tangential velocity is mathematically represented as

$v__{R}} = w * r$

=> $v__{R}} = 15.7 *0.734$

=> $v__{R}} = 11.5 \ m/s$

Generally the tangential velocity along the x-axis is

$v_x = -v__{R}} * sin(\phi)$

=> $v_x =- 11.5 * sin(34.6)$

=> $v_x = -6.543 \ m/s$

The negative sign show that the velocity is directed toward the negative x-axis

Generally the tangential velocity along the y-axis is

$v_y = v__{R}} * cos(\phi)$

=> $v_y = 11.5 * cos(34.6)$

=> $v_y = 9.47 \ m/s$

Generally the tangential velocity along the y-axis is

$v_z = v__{R}} * cos(90)$

=> $v_z = 0 \ m/s$

Generally the tangential velocity at that instant is mathematically represented as

$v = -6.543 \^ i + 9.47 \^ j + 0 \^ k$

A 6.4-N force pulls horizontally on a 1.5-kg block that slides on a smooth horizontal surface. This block is connected by a hori

Elena L [17]

-- Although it's not explicitly stated in the question,we have to assume that
the surface is frictionless. I guess that's what "smooth" means.

-- The total mass of both blocks is (1.5 + 0.93) = 2.43 kg. Since they're
connected to each other (by the string), 2.43 kg is the mass you're pulling.

-- Your force is 6.4 N.
Acceleration = (force)/(mass) = 6.4/2.43 m/s²
 That's about 2.634 m/s² 

(I'm going to keep the fraction form handy, because the acceleration has to be
used for the next part of the question, so we'll need it as accurate as possible.)

-- Both blocks accelerate at the same rate. So the force on the rear block (m₂) is

Force = (mass) x (acceleration) = (0.93) x (6.4/2.43) = 2.45 N.

That's the force that's accelerating the little block, so that must be the tension
in the string.
