Which describes how sliding friction affects pushing a cereal box across a tabletop?

Physics
1 answer:
MrMuchimi3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It acts in the direction opposite of motion.

Explanation:

The sliding friction is the one offering resistance to motion of the sliding cereal box.This force is created between the box and the tabletop that are sliding against each other.The sliding friction is proportional to the weight of the cereal box when pushed on the horizontal tabletop.We can apply the Newton's second law of motion to describe this motion, where force is a product of mass and acceleration.When the object is massive, the sliding friction force experienced is high thus sliding happens slowly.

Which descriptions apply to Mendels pea plant experiments ? Select three options
const2013 [10]

used cross breeding to purposely breed plan

studied a variety of pea plant traits

studied several generations of plants

In order to breed or cross one plant with another, Mendel opened the petals and removed the anthers from the flower and dusted the pistil with pollen from the plant he wished to cross it with and covered the flower with a small bag to prevent the pollen in the air from landing in the pistil. This process is called cross pollination.

Mendel considered 7 characters of pea plant for his study and did the study for several generations.

Consider two diffraction gratings. One grating has 3000 lines per cm, and the other one has 6000 lines per cm. Both gratings are
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

<em>The 6000 lines per cm grating, will produces the greater dispersion .</em>

Explanation:

A diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic (usually one  that has ridges or rulings on their surface rather than dark lines) structure that splits and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions.

The directions of the light beam produced from a diffraction grating depend on the spacing of the grating, and also on the wavelength of the light.

For a plane diffraction grating, the angular positions of principle maxima is given by

(a + b) sin ∅n = nλ

where

a+b is the distance between two consecutive slits

n is the order of principal maxima

λ is the wavelength of the light

From the equation, we can see that without sin ∅ exceeding 1, increasing the number of lines per cm will lead to a decrease between the spacing between consecutive slits.

In this case, light of the same wavelength is used. If λ and n is held constant, then we'll see that reducing the distance between two consecutive slits (a + b) will lead to an increase in the angle of dispersion sin ∅. So long as the limit of sin ∅ not greater that one is maintained.
