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.

Consider a block of mass m at rest on an inclined plane of angle theta. An acrobat of mass m_A is standing on the top corner of
shtirl [24]

Answer:

μ = tan θ

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the translational equilibrium condition.

Let's set a datum with the x axis parallel to the plane and the y axis perpendicular to the plane.

Let's break down the weight of the block

         sin θ = Wₓ / W

         cos θ = W_y / W

         Wₓ = W sin θ

         W_y = W cos θ

The acrobat is vertically so his weight decomposition is

         sin θ = = wₐₓ / wₐ

         cos θ = wₐ_y / wₐ

         wₐₓ = wₐ  sin θ

         wₐ_y = wₐ cos θ

let's write the equilibrium equations

Y axis  

     N- W_y - wₐ_y = 0

     N = W cos θ + wₐ cos θ

X axis

        Wₓ + wₐ_x - fr = 0

         fr = W sin θ + wₐ sin θ

the friction force has the formula

         fr = μ N

         fr = μ (W cos θ + wₐ cos θ)

we substitute

         μ (Mg cos θ + mg cos θ) = Mgsin θ + mg sin θ

         μ = \frac{(M +m) \ sin \  \theta  }{(M +m) \ cos  \ \theta }

 

         μ = tan θ

this is the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction for which the system is in equilibrium.

A car traveling in a straight line has a velocity of 5.0 m/s. After an acceleration of 0.75 m/s/s, the cars velocity is 8.0. In
Bogdan [553]
Vs - velocity on beginning
ve - velocity on ending. You've got:
v_s = 5 \frac{m}{s} \\ v_e=8 \frac{m}{s} \\ \hbox{Then:} \\ \Delta v=v_e - v_s = 8 \frac{m}{s} - 5\frac{m}{s}=3 \frac{m}{s} \\ a=0,75 \frac{m}{s^2} \\ \hbox{And from formula:} \\ a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \qquad \Rightarrow \qquad  \Delta t= \frac{\Delta v}{a} \\ \hbox{Substitute:} \\ \Delta t=\frac{3\frac{m}{s}}{0,75 \frac{m}{s^2}}= \frac{3}{\frac{3}{4}} s= 3 \cdot \frac{4}{3} s= 4 s
So he needed  4 second.

Question 7
VLD [36.1K]

Answer: m= 4kg

Explanation:

Use equation for force:

F=m*a

F=20 N

a=5 m/s²

m=?

1N=kg*m/s²

---------

F=m*a

m=F/a

m=(20 kg*m/s²)/5m/s²

m=4kg

During a visit to the beach, you get in a small rubber raft and paddle out beyond the surf zone. Tiring, you stop and take a res
Monica [59]

Answer:

The main difference in these two movements is that the first is a pure swing movement and the followed form a wave travels from the beach

Explanation:

The movement in the two parts is very different, when the surf zone has passed it is in a deeper part of the water where the seabed does not rise much, therefore due to the movement of the waves there is an upward oscillatory movement and descending, in this movement there is no horizontal displacement.

When it is within the southern zone, there is a rapid rise of the sea floor, which generates a horizontal movement, having a traveling wave, therefore your movement is more complicated, you can have some oscillating movement on the axis and, but in addition to this you have a horizontal movement that reaches you towards the beach, forming a Traveling wave.

The main difference in these two movements is that the first is a pure swing movement and the followed form a wave travels from the beach

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs

v²=31²+2×10×40

V=41.96ft/s

b. t=(v-u) /g

t=(41.96-31)/10

t=1.096s
