Which of the following is true about APR

Space-faring astronauts cannot use standard weight scales (since they are constantly in free fall) so instead they determine the

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

ma = 48.48kg

Explanation:

To find the mass of the astronaut, you first calculate the mass of the chair by using the information about the period of oscillation of the empty chair and the spring constant. You use the following formula:

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m_c}{k}}$ (1)

mc: mass of the chair

k: spring constant = 600N/m

T: period of oscillation of the chair = 0.9s

You solve the equation (1) for mc, and then you replace the values of the other parameters:

$m_c=\frac{T^2k}{4\pi^2}=\frac{(0.9s)^2(600N/m)}{4\pi^2}=12.31kg$ (2)

Next, you calculate the mass of the chair and astronaut by using the information about the period of the chair when the astronaut is sitting on the chair:

T': period of chair when the astronaut is sitting = 2.0s

M: mass of the astronaut plus mass of the chair = ?

$T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{M}{k}}\\\\M=\frac{T'^2k}{4\pi^2}=\frac{(2.0s)^2(600N/m)}{4\pi^2}\\\\M=60.79kg$ (3)

Finally, the mass of the astronaut is the difference between M and mc (results from (2) and (3)) :

$m_a=M-m_c=60.79kg-12.31kg=48.48kg$

The mass of the astronaut is 48.48 kg

1. Which statement about friction is true?(1 point) A. Static friction and kinetic friction in a system always act in the same d

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

true 1Ay 2D

Explanation:

1) In this exercise you are asked to investigate which statements are true

A) True. The friction force opposes the movement caused by the external force,

B) False. Mantuano in the opposite direction force

C) False. The static and scientific friction force act in the same direction, since the second appears when the movement does not start and the static friction decreases.

D) Fale the static and kinetic friction forces act in the same direction

2) How to overcome friction on a ramp

A) False. If the texture of the surface becomes rough, the friction force increases

B) False. Pressing the brick against the surface increases the normal and as the friction is proportional to the normal, it also increases

C) False. By lowering the table the weight component in the friction direction decreases

D) True. When lifting the board, the weight component increases and therefore can become greater than the friction
