The greater the energy, the larger the frequency and the shorter (smaller) the wavelength. Given the relationship between wavelength and frequency — the higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength — it follows that short wavelengths are more energetic than long wavelengths.
Gravity pulls to the centre of the earth. A ship floats in water because the water pushing it up (upthrust) is equal to the force<span> of gravity (weight) pulling it </span>down<span>. Friction also occurs when objects move through air. This is </span>called<span>air resistance.</span>
Answer:
Fg = 98.1 [N]; N = 98.1 [N]; Ff = 39.24 [N]; a = 2.076[m/^2]
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and interpret each of the forces acting on the box. In the attached diagram we can find the free body diagram.
The gravitational force is equal to:
Fg = (10 * 9.81) = 98.1 [N]
Now by summing forces on the Y axis equal to zero, we can find the normal force exerted by the surface.
N - Fg = 0
N = Fg
N = 98.1 [N]
The friction force is defined as the product of normal force by the coefficient of friction.
Ff = N * μ
Ff = 98.1 * 0.4
Ff = 39.24 [N]
By the sum forces on the x-axis equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the value of acceleration.
60 - Ff = m * a
60 - 39.24 = 10 * a
a = 2.076[m/^2]
Answer:
Work done on an object is equal to
FDcos(angle).
So, naturally, if you lift a book from the floor on top of the table you do work on it since you are applying a force through a distance.
However, I often see the example of carrying a book through a horizontal distance is not work. The reasoning given is this: The force you apply is in the vertical distance, countering gravity and thus not in the direction of motion.
But surely you must be applying a force (and thus work) in the horizontal direction as the book would stop due to air friction if not for your fingers?
Is applying a force through a distance only work if causes an acceleration? That wouldn't make sense in my mind. If you are dragging a sled through snow, you are still doing work on it, since the force is in the direction of motion. This goes even if velocity is constant due to friction.
Explanation:
After rolling off the edge of the cliff and falling ' M ' meters down,
the speed of the boulder is
Square root of ( 19.6 M ) .
If M=111 meters, then the speed is <em>46.64 meters per second</em>.
We have known for roughly 500 years that if there's no air resistance,
the mass of the falling object makes no difference, and all objects fall
with the same acceleration, speed, time to splat, etc.
