How do you calculate acceleration using a friction coefficient?

1 answer:

4 0

Use the diagram to determine the normal force, the net force, the coefficient of friction (μ) between the object and the surface, the mass, and the acceleration of the object. (Neglect air resistance.) Note: To simplify calculations, an approximated value of g is often used - 10 m/s/s.

In which electric circuit would the voltmeter read 10 volts ?

ki77a [65]

Given that,

Voltage = 10 volt

Suppose, The three resistance is connected in parallel and each resistance is 12 Ω. find the current in the electric circuit.

We need to calculate the equivalent resistance

Using formula of parallel

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{R_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{R_{3}}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{12}+\dfrac{1}{12}+\dfrac{1}{12}$

$\dfrac{1}{R}=\dfrac{1}{4}$

$R=4\ \Omega$

We need to calculate the current in the circuit

Using ohm's law

$V=IR$

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

Where, V = voltage

R = resistance

Put the value into the formula

$I=\dfrac{10}{4}$

$I=2.5\ A$

Hence, The current in the circuit is 2.5 A

Which of the following is the best definition of an element?

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

A. chemical substance whose atoms all have the same number of protons

Explanation:

An element is a substance which contains identical atoms that have the same number of protons in the nucleus.

Elements are arranged in the periodic table according to their atomic number (= number of protons): so atoms of different elements have a different number of protons in their nuclei.

For a neutral atom, the number of electrons around the nucleus is also equal to the number of protons.

Moreover, atoms of the same element can have a different number of neutrons, despite having the same number of protons - these atoms are called isotopes.

A SMART car can accelerate from rest to a speed of 28 m/s in 20s. What distance does it travel in this time?

sashaice [31]

Speed= distance/ time so distance = speed * time= 28 * 20= 560m .. so the answer is 560m.. l hope it helped :)

1. Which system has a higher random, average kinetic energy of its atoms, a glass of iced tea or a cup of hot tea?

natita [175]

The average kinetic energy of the particles is higher in the hot tea, so it also has greater thermal energy then the cold tea.
