Answer

He should make the arrow for “Path” curve downward.

Explanation

The force of gravity is usually directly downward. So from the diagram, it is correctly labelled.

If the object was given a horizontal force, the direction of the inertial is also correct. Inertial is the force the resist the change of state of motion.

What Hector should change is the path followed by the object. It will be a curve not a straight line as it is drawn.

The correct answer is He should make the arrow for “Path” curve downward.

Let us review the answers given.
1. He should switch the labels "Gravity" and "Inertia".
These labels are correct, so no change is required.

2. He should make the arrow for "Path" curve downward.
This statement is correct.

3. He should switch the labels "Inertia" and "Path".
No change is required.

4. He should make the arrow for "Inertia" curve downward.
This statement is incorrect.

Answer:
Hector should make the arrow for "Path" curve downward as shown in the figure.

A 0.540-kg bucket rests on a scale. Into this bucket you pour sand at the constant rate of 56.0 g/s. If the sand lands in the bu

romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 12.8212 N

b) 12.642 N

Explanation:

Mass of bucket = m = 0.54 kg

Rate of filling with sand = 56.0 g/ sec = 0.056 kg/s

Speed of sand = 3.2 m/s

g= 9.8 m/sec2

Condition (a);

Mass of sand = Ms = 0.75 kg

So total mass becomes = bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

== > total weight = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N

Now impact of sand = rate of filling × velocity = 0.056 × 3.2 = 0.1792 kg. m /sec2=0.1792 N

Scale reading is sum of impact of sand and weight force ;

i-e

scale reading = 12.642 N+0.1792 N = 12.8212 N

Codition (b);

bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

==>weight = mg = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N (readily calculated above as well)

What is the torque τa about axis a due to the force f⃗ ? express the torque about axis a at cartesian coordinates (0,0)?

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$\tau_a = F a sin \theta$

Explanation:

The torque of a force is given by:

$\tau = F d sin \theta$

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation of the system

$\theta$ is the angle between the direction of the force and d

In this problem, we have:

$F$ , the force

$a$ , the distance of application of the force from the centre (0,0)

$\theta$ , the angle between the direction of the force and a

Therefore, the torque is

$\tau_a = F a sin \theta$

Suppose you have a rock that, when it solidifies, contains 1 microgram of a radioactive isotope. How much of this isotope remain

algol13

Answer:

d) 1/32 microgram

Explanation:

First half life is the time at which the concentration of the reactant reduced to half.

Second half reaction is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/4.

Third half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/8.

Forth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/16.

Fifth half life is the time at which the remaining concentration reduced to half or the initial concentration reduced to 1/32.

The initial mass of the sample = 1 microgram

After 5 half-lives, the mass should reduce to 1/32 of the original.

So the concentration left = 1/32 of 1 microgram = 1/32 microgram

True or False: If the initial speed of an object is zero, then the initial position of the object must be the origin. Explain

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is not necessary, that when the initial speed of the object is zero then it must be at origin.

It may be the object starts motion from the left of origin.
