Answer: To increase the rigidity of the system you could hold the ruler at its midpoint so that the part of the ruler that oscillates is half as long as in the original experiment.
Explanation:
When a rule is displaced from its vertical position, it oscillates back and forth because of the restoring force opposing the displacement. That is, when the rule is on the left there is a force to the right.
By holding a ruler with one hand and deforming it with the other a force is generated in the opposite direction which is known as the restoring force. The restoring force causes the ruler to move back toward its stable equilibrium position, where the net force on it is zero. The momentum gained causes the ruler to move to the right leading to opposite deformation. This moves the ruler again to the left. The whole process is repeated until dissipative forces reduce the motion causing the ruler to come to rest.
The relationship between restoring force and displacement was described by Hooke's law. This states that displacement or deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force applied.
F= -kx, where,
F= restoring force
x= displacement or deformation
k= constant related to the rigidity of the system.
Therefore, the larger the force constant, the greater the restoring force, and the stiffer the system.
Answer:
Open- closed
Explanation:
It has Open-closed configuration of its end
Answer:
The ball reaches Barney head in 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The rise velocity is 
The height considered is 
The horizontal velocity of the large object is 
Generally from kinematic equation
Here s is the distance of the object from Barney head ,
u is the velocity of the object along the vertical axis which is equal but opposite to the velocity of the helicopter
So
So
= 
Solving the above equation using quadratic formula
The value of t obtained is
Answer:
Friction between the box and the floor is 25N to the left
Explanation:
There are two forces acting on the box along the horizontal direction:
- The force of push applied by the worker, in the forward direction, F
- The force of friction, 
, acting in the opposite direction (backward)
So the net force acting on the box is
According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on an object is equal to the product between its mass (m) and its acceleration (a), so we can write:
And so
However, in this case the box is moving at constant speed; this means that its acceleration is zero:
Therefore we have:
Which means
And since we are told that
This means that the force of friction is also 25 N:
(1) friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces , fluid layers and material elements sliding against each other.
(2) gravity is a science fiction .
(3) Resistance ::: is a property of a conductor by which the passage of current is opposed causing electric energy to be transformed into heat .
(4) viscosity is the quantity that describes a fluid.
(5)
