A shadow forms on the side of an object that faces away from the sun. The length of shadows changes as Earth rotates. In the morning, the sun is low in the eastern sky and shadows are long. As time passes in the morning, the sun seems to move higher in the sky.
Answer:
mass of box 1 = 2.20 kg
mass of box 2 = 5.93 kg
Explanation:
Let the mass of box 1 and box 2 is respectively
and 
so we will have
Force applied on box 1 then acceleration



Now we know that contact force between them in above case is given as



now we have

Answer:
a = 0.55 m / s²
Explanation:
The centripetal acceleration is given by the relation
a = v² / r
angular and linear velocities are related
v = w r
we substitute
a = w² r
In the exercise they indicate the angular velocity w = 1 rev/min, let's reduce to the SI system
w = 1 rev / min (2pi rad / 1rev) (1min / 60s) = 0.105 rad/ s
let's calculate
a = 0.105² 50.0
a = 0.55 m / s²
Answer:
Explanation:
Actual weight, Wo = 5 N
Apparent weight, W = 4.5 N
density of water = 1 g/cm^3 = 1000 kg/m^3
density of gold, = 19.32 g/cm^3 = 19.32 x 1000 kg/m^3
Buoyant force = Actual weight - Apparent weight
Volume x density of water x g = 5 - 4.5
V x 1000 x 9.8 = 0.5
V = 5.1 x 10^-6 m^3
Weight of gold = Volume of gold x density of gold x gravity
W' = 5.1 x 10^-6 x 19.32 x 1000 x 9.8 = 0.966 N
As W' is less than W so, it is not pure gold.
