Answer:

Oort Cloud

Explanation:

  • Hundreds of millions of comet nuclei forming a spherical region that surrounds the solar system is called Oort cloud.
  • The Oort cloud revolves at tens of thousands of the distance of the earth from the sun.
  • Comets are the condensed water and dust particles that orbit around the sun with inward helix leaving behind a tail of vapours and vaporize completely as they get closer to the sun during their revolution around it.
  • They have a nebulous appearance and extremely elongated orbits.

When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some poi
eimsori [14]

Answer: The force of kinetic friction is smaller than that of static friction, but F_g  remains the same.

Explanation:

The situation is same as when a book is pushed with an increasing force on a table; When the force is low, book doesn't move, until that under a given force starts moving, and then it goes on movement even if the force decreases a bit.

The physical explanation for this, that friction force adopts any value needed to avoid to move the object, till a limit value is achieved, called static friction force, equal to the normal force times the static friction coefficient.

Once in movement, the kinetic friction coefficient replaces the static one , and  in general is lower than the static one, so the force diminishes.

In the case of the box sliding down the board, the force that tries to move the object down the board, is the component of the weight parallel to the board, that can be showed that being equal to the weight times the sinus of the angle of the board with the horizontal, as follows:

F_g = m g sin θ

When θ increases, F_g does the same, so friction force always has the same magnitude than F_g (but opposite direction) so the box doesn't move, till that θ takes a value that produces a F_g equal to static friction force.

Beyond this limit angle, F_g (remaining the same for a given angle) is greater than the kinetic friction force, and the box slides.

In the limit, when θ=90º, sin θ =1⇒ F_g = mg, so the object is in free fall.

A 60-kg runner raises his center of mass approximately 0.5 m with each step. Although his leg muscles act as a spring, recapturi
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: P = 36.75W

The additional power needed to account for the loss is 36.75W.

Explanation:

Given;

Mass of the runner m= 60 kg

Height of the centre of gravity h= 0.5m

Acceleration due to gravity g= 9.8m/s

The potential energy of the body for each step is;

P.E = mgh

P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.5

PE = 294J

Since the average loss per compression on the leg is 10%.

Energy loss = 10% (P.E)

E = 10% of 294J

E = 29.4J

To calculate the runner's additional power

given that time per stride is = 0.8s

Power P = Energy/time

P = E/t

P = 29.4J/0.8s

P = 36.75W

Una carga de -10Mc está situada a 20cm delante de otra carga de 5 Mc. Calcular la fuerza electrostática en Newton ejercida por u
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

a)  force between them is attraction,   b)  F = 1.125 10⁻² N

Explanation:

In this case the electric force is given by Coulomb's law

          F =k \frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}

           

In the exercise they give us the values ​​of the loads

          q1 = - 10 mC = -10 10⁻³ C

          q2 = 5 mC = 5 10⁻³ C

           d = 20 cm = 0.20 m

let's calculate

          F = 9 10⁹ \frac{10 \ 10^{-3} \ 5 \ 10^{-3}}{0.20^2}

          F = 1.125 10⁻² N

To find the direction of the force we use that charges of the same sign repel each other, as in this case there is a positive and a negative charge, the force between them is attraction

I could use math to help with baking and measuring how much I should use for a cake or stuff like that, they also show us how to add our money together to help us with stuff.
Math, is helpful with many jobs, stuff learned in school can help you strategize and school also makes you think outside of the box sometimes, which can help with jobs. Also if you want to do a career with fashion designing or engineering, you can use math for that too. School also gives you the ability to read.
