The force required to start an object sliding across a uniform horizontal surface is larger than the force required to keep the object sliding at a constant velocity once it starts.

The magnitudes of the required forces are different in these situations because the force of kinetic friction is less than the force of static friction. <em>(d)</em>

The force on an object is F⃗ =−17j⃗ . For the vector v⃗ =2i⃗ +3j⃗ , find: (a) The component of F⃗ parallel to v⃗
Igoryamba

Answer:

(a) \vec F_{\parallel} = -\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{103}{13}\,j , (b) \vec F_{\perp} = \frac{102}{13}\,i -\frac{68}{13}\,j, (c) W = -51

Explanation:

The statement is incomplete:

The force on an object is \vec F = -17\,j. For the vector \vec v = 2\,i +3\,j. Find: (a) The component of \vec F parallel to \vec v, (b) The component of \vec F perpendicular to \vec v, and (c) The work W, done by force \vec F through displacement \vec v.

(a) The component of \vec F parallel to \vec v is determined by the following expression:

\vec F_{\parallel} = (\vec F \bullet \hat {v} )\cdot \hat{v}

Where \hat{v} is the unit vector of \vec v, which is determined by the following expression:

\hat{v} = \frac{\vec v}{\|\vec v \|}

Where \|\vec v\| is the norm of \vec v, whose value can be found by Pythagorean Theorem.

Then, if \vec F = -17\,j and \vec v = 2\,i +3\,j, then:

\|\vec v\| =\sqrt{2^{2}+3^{3}}

\|\vec v\|=\sqrt{13}

\hat{v} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{13}} \cdot(2\,i + 3\,j)

\hat{v} = \frac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\,i+ \frac{3}{\sqrt{13}}\,j

\vec F \bullet \hat{v} = (0)\cdot \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{13}} \right)+(-17)\cdot \left(\frac{3}{\sqrt{13}} \right)

\vec F \bullet \hat{v} = -\frac{51}{\sqrt{13}}

\vec F_{\parallel} = \left(-\frac{51}{\sqrt{13}} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\,i+\frac{3}{\sqrt{13}}\,j  \right)

\vec F_{\parallel} = -\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{153}{13}\,j

(b) Parallel and perpendicular components are orthogonal to each other and the perpendicular component can be found by using the following vectorial subtraction:

\vec F_{\perp} = \vec F - \vec F_{\parallel}

Given that \vec F = -17\,j and \vec F_{\parallel} = -\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{153}{13}\,j, the component of \vec F perpendicular to \vec v is:

\vec F_{\perp} = -17\,j -\left(-\frac{102}{13}\,i-\frac{153}{13}\,j  \right)

\vec F_{\perp} = \frac{102}{13}\,i + \left(\frac{153}{13}-17 \right)\,j

\vec F_{\perp} = \frac{102}{13}\,i -\frac{68}{13}\,j

(c) The work done by  \vec F through displacement \vec v is:

W = \vec F \bullet \vec v

W = (0)\cdot (2)+(-17)\cdot (3)

W = -51

Who came up with the theory of relativity?
liberstina [14]

Albert Einstein, in his theory of special relativity, determined that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and he showed that the speed of light within a vacuum is the same no matter the speed at which an observer travels

If you place a glass cylinder in Wessin Oil, the view of the cylinder nearly disappeared when the eyedropper was full of Wessin
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. the indices of refraction matched

Explanation:

The index of refraction, or refractive

index, is a measure of how fast light

rays travel through a given medium.

Alternatively, it could be said that

the refractive index is the measure of

the bending of a light ray when

passing from one medium to

another. Mathematically, it can be

represented as a ratio between two

different velocities – the velocity of

light in vacuum and the velocity of

light in a given medium.

For example, try putting a pencil in a jar full of water. If you look at the pencil from above, it would look as though the pencil has bent in the water. That happens due to the refraction of light. It occurs because as light rays enter water, they slow down, as the speed of light in water is lower than the speed of light in air. The magnitude of how much a medium refracts a light ray is determined by the index

Which term describes the ability to process many things simultaneously?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Parallel processing

Explanation:

It is a parallel processing because it involves the brain processing many part of problem simultaneously.

The brain natural mode of information involves performing many task .

It is also ability of the brain to simultaneously process incoming stimuli or signals of different quality. It is a part of brain's vision and divide what is seen into four major parts which are color, motion, shape, and depth.
