If you push a book against a wall hard enough it will not slide down even though gravity is pulling it. Use what you know about

friction and newtons laws of motion to explain why the book does not fall

The brakes of a 125 kg sled are applied while it is moving at 8.1 m/s, which exerts a force of 261 N to slow the sled down. How

sammy [17]

Answer:

15.7 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the sled = 125 kg

v₀ = initial speed of the sled = 8.1 m/s

v = final speed of sled = 0 m/s

F = force applied by the brakes in opposite direction of motion = 261

d = stopping distance for the sled

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

- F d = (0.5) m (v² - v₀²)

- (261) d = (0.5) (125) (0² - 8.1²)

d = 15.7 m

Compute the kinetic energy of a proton (mass 1.67×10−27kg ) using both the nonrelativistic and relativistic expressions for spee

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The non-relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $6.76\times10^{-12}\ J$

The relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of proton $m=1.67\times10^{-27}\ kg$

Speed $v= 9.00\times10^{7}\ m/s$

We need to calculate the kinetic energy for non relativistic

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Put the value into the formula

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times(9.00\times10^{7})^2$

$K.E=6.76\times10^{-12}\ J$

We need to calculate the kinetic energy for relativistic

Using formula of kinetic energy

$K.E=mc^2(\sqrt{(\dfrac{1}{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}})}-1)$

$K.E=1.67\times10^{-27}\times(3\times10^{8})^{2}\cdot\left(\sqrt{\frac{1}{1-\frac{\left(9.00\times10^{7}\right)^{2}}{(3\times10^{8})^{2}}}}-1\right)$

$K.E=7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s$

Hence, The non-relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $6.76\times10^{-12}\ J$

The relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is $7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s$

Jasper made a list of the properties of electromagnetic waves. Identify the mistake in the list. Electromagnetic Wave Properties

Nata [24]

Answer:

Statement 2 is wrong

Explanation:

To check the statements in this exercise, let's describe the main properties of electromagnetic waves. Let's describe the characteristics

* they are transverse waves

* formed by the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

* the speed of the wave is the speed of light

with these concepts let's review the final statements

1) True. Formed by the oscillation of the two fields

2) False. They are transverse waves

3) True. Can travel by vacuum as they are supported by oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields

4) True. They all have the same speed of light

Statement 2 is wrong
