A professor drives off with his car (mass 870 kg), but forgot to take his coffee mug (mass 0.47 kg) off the roof. The coefficien

t of static friction between the mug and the roof is 0.7, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.5. What is the maximum acceleration of the car, so the mug does not slide off?

Answer:6.86 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

mas of car=870 kg

coffee mug mass=0.47 kg

coefficient of static friction between mug and roof \mu _s= 0.7

Coefficient of kinetic Friction \mu _k=0.5

maximum car acceleration is \mu \times g

here coefficient of static friction comes in to action because mug is placed over car . If mug is moving relative to car then \mu _k is come into effect

a_{max}=0.7\times 9.8=6.86 m/s^2

According to quantum physics, measuring velocity of a tiny particle with an electromagnet
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option A.

Explanation:

In quantum physics <u>there is a law to relate the position and the momentum of the particle</u>, it says that if we know with precision where is a quantum particle, we can not know the momentum of this particle, in other words, the velocity of the particle. So, when we measure the velocity of the particle we find the correct value of the particle, but we can not determine with accuracy where is the particle. This law is known as the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and, its expressed as follows:    

\Delta x \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4 \pi}

<em>where Δx: is the position's uncertainty, Δp: is the momentum's uncertainty and h: is the Planck constant.</em>  

Therefore, the correct answer is A: measuring the velocity of a tiny particle with an electromagnet has no effect on the velocity of the particle. It only affects the determination of the particle's position.      

I hope it helps you!

What type of relationship exists between acceleration and mass?
likoan [24]
Here, you can derive that by numerical method, as follows:
F = m.a
m = F/a

So, here we can see when we decrease one, other increase by same effect; we can say they are "Indirectly Proportional" to each other!

Hope this helps!
