An object whose weight is 10kg is placed on smooth plane inclined at 30° to the horizontal. find the acceleration of the object

velikii [3]

Answer:

4.9 m/s²

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram. There are two forces on the object:

Weight force mg pulling straight down,

and normal force N pushing perpendicular to the plane.

Sum the forces in the parallel direction.

∑F = ma

mg sin θ = ma

a = g sin θ

a = (9.8 m/s²) (sin 30°)

a = 4.9 m/s²

Thing 1 and Thing 2 push with a force of 2000 N to move a rather small 500 kg elephant 30 m across the kitchen floor. How much w

Amanda [17]

Answer:

60000 J

Explanation:

Assuming the force is applied parallel to the displacement of the elephant, the work done to move it across the floor is

$W=Fd$

where

F = 2000 N is the force applied

d = 30 m is the displacement of the elephant

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

$W=(2000 N)(30 m)=60,000 J$

Ice skaters often end their performances with spin turns, where they spin very fast about their center of mass with their arms f

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{30 rev/s}}$

Explanation:

This question is based on the Law of Conservation of Angular Momentum.

Angular momentum (L) equals the moment of inertia (I) times the angular speed (ω).

L = Iω

If momentum is conserved,

I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

Data:

I₁ = 3.5 kg·m²s⁻¹

ω₁ = 6.0 rev·s⁻¹

I₂ = 0.70 kg·m²s⁻¹

Calculation:

$\begin{array}{rcl}I_{1}\omega_{1} &= &I_{2}\omega_{2}\\\text{3.5 kg$\cdot$m$^{2}$}\times \text{6.0 rev/s} &= &\text{0.70 kg$\cdot$m$^{2}$}\times\omega_{2}\\\text{21 rev/s} &= &0.70\omega_{2}\\\omega_{2} & = & \dfrac{\text{21 rev/s}}{0.70}\\\\&=&\textbf{30 rev/s}\\\end{array}\\\text{The skater's final rotational speed is $\large \boxed{\textbf{30 rev/s}}$}$

What is the significance of the fact that the gravitational constant, G, is a very small number and that Coulomb’s constant, k,

valina [46]

Both are constants used in the definition of Forces (gravitational and electric,respectively)

Since those constants are proportional to the magnitude of the forces:

Having a small gravitational constant explains why there is no apparent force of attraction with objects of considerable low mass (they would need to have great value of mass for the equation to give an apreciable force)

Electrical interactions are usually strong, and thus require an appropiate constant to depict the phenomenon. We deal in this case with charges really small, but the forces are in different order of magnitude.

What does every magnet possess?

snow_lady [41]

All magnets possess a property called polarity--that is, a magnet's power of attraction is strongest at its opposite ends, usually called the north and south poles. The north and south poles attract each other, but north repels north and south repels south. All magnets attract iron.
