In this problem, you will analyze a system composed of two blocks, 1 and 2, of respective masses m1 and m2. To simplify the anal

ysis, we will make several assumptions:
The blocks can move in only one dimension, namely, along the x axis.
The masses of the blocks remain constant.
The system is closed.
At time t, the x components of the velocity and the acceleration of block 1 are denoted by v1(t) and a1(t). Similarly, the x components of the velocity and acceleration of block 2 are denoted by v2(t)and a2(t).
1. Let us denote the force exerted by block 1 on block 2 by F12, and the force exerted by block 2 on block 1 by F21. If we suppose that m1 is greater than m2, which of the following statements about forces is true?
a. |F12|>|F21|
b. |F21|>|F12|
c. Both forces have equal magnitudes.

Answer:

c. Both forces have equal magnitudes.

Explanation:

According to Newton´s 3rd Law, the force exerted by a body on another one , is equal and opposite to the one that the second object exerts on the first one.

This does not depend on the masses of the objects, so it doesn´t matter that m₁ be greater than m₂.

As examples of this, we can mention the gravity force, the electrostatic force, the normal force, etc.

So, in this case, taking into account only the magnitudes, we can say:

F₁₂ = F₂₁

Definition of wave velocity ​
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Velocity = frequency * wave length

Explanation:

Wave velocity is  the measure of how fast the wave is being transmitted to a particular direction.

velocity implies both speed and direction as we know.

The velocity of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency

where

  • frequency  - number of oscillations per unit time (measured in Hz)
  • wave length - distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves  (measured in meters)

Under electrostatic conditions, the electric field just outside the surface of any charged conductor:
lesantik [10]

Answer:

D. is always perpendicular to the surface of the conductor

Explanation:

1) Answer is (D) option. Electric field just outside surface of charged conductor is normal to conductor at that point.

It can be explained on the basis of the fact that, Electric field inside conductor under static condition is zero. As a result potential difference between any two points with in conductor is zero. So whole of conductor is equipotential body.

Equipotential surface and Electric field lines always cut at 90 degrees to each other. Conductor being equipotential body, Electric field lines starting or terminating at conductor must be normal to surface. Hence electric field just outside conductor is perpendicular or normal to surface.

What is frictional force?<br>how to Express frictional force?
Kay [80]

Answer:

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other. There are several types of friction: Dry friction is a force that opposes the relative lateral motion of two solid surfaces in contact.

Coefficient of friction, ratio of the frictional force resisting the motion of two surfaces in contact to the normal force pressing the two surfaces together. It is usually symbolized by the Greek letter mu (μ). Mathematically, μ = F/N, where F is the frictional force and N is the normal force.
