It is used to reduce speed, without friction, nothing would roll or move on the ground, and lastly, it allows things to endure during bombardment. Hope this helps!

How does electric force depend on the amount of charge and the distance between charges
Gennadij [26K]
<h2> F = k×\frac{q1q2}{r2}</h2>

Explanation:

  • The attractive or repulsive forces which act between any two charged species is an electric force.
  • The electric force depends on the distance between the charged species and the amount of charge which can be calculated by the formula given as follows  

    F = k×\frac{q1q2}{r2}

where, K is coulombs constant, which is equal to -                                  9 x10^9 Nm^2/C^2.

  • The unit for K is newtons square meters per square coulombs.
  • This is known as Coulomb's Law.

8–4. The tank of the air compressor is subjected to an internal pressure of 90 psi. If the internal diameter of the tank is 22 i
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The stress S = 1935 [Psi]

Explanation:

This kind of problem belongs to the mechanical of materials field in the branch of the mechanical engineering.

The initial data:

P = internal pressure [Psi] = 90 [Psi]

Di= internal diameter [in] = 22 [in]

t = wall thickness [in] = 0.25 [in]

S = stress = [Psi]

Therefore

ri = internal radius = (Di)/2 - t = (22/2) - 0.25 = 10.75 [in]

And using the expression to find the stress:

S=\frac{P*D_{i} }{2*t} \\replacing:\\S=\frac{90*10.75 }{2*0.25} \\S=1935[Psi]

In the attached image we can see the stress σ1 & σ2 = S acting over the point A.

You are riding in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Suppose you stand on a scale. The reading on the scale is __________.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

greater than your true weight

Explanation:

When going up in an elevator the acceleration of the elevator is added to the acceleration due to gravity. This will increase the reading on the scale.

The expression of the resultant weight will be

N=m(a+g)

where,

m = Mass of the person

g =  Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

a = Acceleration of the elevator.

Hence, the reading on the scale is <u>greater than your true weight.</u>
