What does a mu mean in physics

Physics
1 answer:
ivolga24 [154]3 years ago
3 0

'mu' is a letter in the Greek alphabet.  It looks like this:  μ
If you need labels for quantities or variables in math or science,
you can use any letter from any alphabet you like ... just be sure
to explain what the symbol stands for somewhere on the page
where the equation or formula is.

I've seen 'mu' used to stand for 'micro-' when writing units.
For example:

" μ-meter " ... one millionth of a meter

" μ-farad " ... one millionth of a farad

" μ-second " ... one millionth of a second

The potential energy of the block is A) 490 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in the gravitational field.

It is calculated as follows:

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

For the block in this problem, we have:

m = 10 kg

g=9.8 m/s^2

h = 5 m

Therefore, its potential energy is:

PE=(10)(9.8)(5)=490 J

The two equal strong kids are having a tug a war. What do you expect to happen to the ball in this situation
borishaifa [10]

Answer:as per as Newtons second law, The forces exerted on the rope create tension.

As such,The tension is equal to the applied force.The tension is trasmitted to the opposite side and of the rope delivering the applied force.

Hope this helps.. :)

An object weighing 49 N is dropped from a height of 30 m. It is found to be moving with a velocity of 24m/s just before it hits
faltersainse [42]

The  frictional force will be 0.22N.

<h3>What is Frictional force?</h3>

Frictional force is the force generated between two surfaces that are in contact and slide against each other.

Given,

Weight=4N

mass =4.9/9.8=0.5kg

Hieght =30m

velocity=24m/s

Acceration , v²-u²=2as

24²/2×30 =a , u is zero

 a= 1.5m/s²



By Using conservation  of energy ,

30F+1/2mv²=mgh

30F=1150-144

F= 6/30

F=0.2N

The force will be 0.2N
