If a metal ball suspended by a rod is at rest, which force is responsible for balancing the force due to gravity?

2 answers:

4 0

The normal force applied by the rod on tbe metal ball is the force balancing the force due to gravity.

The normal force is the force that keeps any object from going through another object and that is why tables and floors can keep things up.

Any force coming from the surface and acting at a right angle to the surface is called the Normal Force<span>.

A 9-μC positive point charge is located at the origin and a 6 μC positive point charge is located at x = 0.00 m, y = 1.0 m. Find

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge $q_{1}=9\times10^{-6}\ C$ at origin

Second charge $q_{2}=6\times10^{-6}\ C$

Second charge at point P = (0,1)

We assume that,

The net electric field between the charges is zero at mid point.

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

$0=\dfrac{k\times9\times10^{-6}}{d^2}+\dfrac{k\times6\times10^{-6}}{(1-d)^2}$

$\dfrac{(1-d)}{d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{6}{9}}$

$\dfrac{1}{d}=\dfrac{\sqrt{6}}{3}+1$

$\dfrac{1}{d}=1.82$

$d=\dfrac{1}{1.82}$

$d=0.55\ m$

Hence, The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).

A series circuit is composed of two resistors:

WITCHER [35]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.3 Amps

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

A circuit with resistors, R1 and R2

R1 = 7 Ω

R2 = 11 Ω

Voltage = 24 V

We are required to calculate the current in the circuit.

<h3>Step 1: We need to find the effective resistance.</h3>

When resistors are arranged in series, the effective resistance is calculated by;

Rt = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ..........Rₙ

Therefore;

Total resistance = 7 + 11

= 18 Ω

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the current in the circuit</h3>

From the ohm's law;

V = IR

Rearranging the formula;

I = V/R

Thus;

I = 24 V ÷ 18 Ω

= 1.333 Amps

= 1.3 Amps

Thus, the current in the circuit is 1.3 Amps

What is the Kinetic Energy of a tennis ball after 40.0cm of freefall?

OlgaM077 [116]

The kinetic energy is the same as the potential energy of raising it 40cm (0.4m). That's mgh where m is mass of ball. Its then 3.924*m, whatever m is equal to in kg.

26. An ice-skater who weighs 200 N is gliding across the ice. If the force of friction is 4 N. what is the

Scrat [10]

Answer:

0.02

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction = μ

force of friction = Ff

Normal Force = FN, but

FN = -W

Ff = -μFN

so μ = Ff/FN

= 4N/200N

= 0.02.
