Answer:

C.Static friction

Explanation:

We are given tat a box which is kept on the table.

The box is at rest on the table.

We have to find which force is represented by vector A

We know that

Static friction: it is that force which kept object at rest.It is a type of friction force and exist between stationary object and surface on which it is resting.

When some forces acting on the box but the box remain at rest on the table due to static friction.

The force is represented by vector A is static friction .

Before 1960, people believed that the maximum attainable coefficient of static friction for an automobile tire on a roadway was

True [87]

This problem is looking for the minimum value of μs that is necessary to achieve the record time. To solve this problem:

Assuming the front wheels are off the ground for the entire ¼ mile = 402.3 m, the acceleration a = µs·9.8 m/s².

For a constant acceleration, distance = 402.3

m = 1/2at^2 = 804.6 m / (4.43 s)^2 = a = µs·9.8 m/s^2

µs = 804.6 m / (4.43s)^2 / 9.8 m/s^2 = 4.18

4vir4ik [10]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Cars A nad B are racing each other along the same straight road in the following manner: Car A has a head start and is a distance $D_{A}$ beyond the starting line at t = 0. The starting line is at x = 0. Car A travels at a constant speed $v_{A}$ . Car B starts at the starting line but has a better engine than Car A and thus Car B travels at a constant speed $v_{B}$ , which is greater than $v_{A}$ .

Part A: How long after Car B started the race will Car B catch up with Car A? Express the time in terms of given quantities.

Part B: How far from Car B's starting line will the cars be when Car B passes Car A? Express your answer in terms of known quantities.

Answer: Part A: $t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Part B: $x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Explanation: First, let's write an equation of motion for each car.

Both cars travels with constant speed. So, they are an uniform rectilinear motion and its position equation is of the form:

$x=x_{0}+vt$

where

$x_{0}$ is initial position

v is velocity

t is time

Car A started the race at a distance. So at t = 0, initial position is $D_{A}$ .

The equation will be:

$x_{A}=D_{A}+v_{A}t$

Car B started at the starting line. So, its equation is

$x_{B}=v_{B}t$

Part A: When they meet, both car are at "the same position":

$D_{A}+v_{A}t=v_{B}t$

$v_{B}t-v_{A}t=D_{A}$

$t(v_{B}-v_{A})=D_{A}$

$t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Car B meet with Car A after $t=\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$ units of time.

Part B: With the meeting time, we can determine the position they will be:

$x_{B}=v_{B}(\frac{D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}} )$

$x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$

Since Car B started at the starting line, the distance Car B will be when it passes Car A is $x_{B}=\frac{v_{B}D_{A}}{v_{B}-v_{A}}$ units of distance.

The three forces acting on a hot-air balloon that is moving vertically are its weight, the force due to air resistance and the u

irinina [24]

Explanation :

The forces acting on hot- air balloon are:

Weight, (W)

Force due to air resistance, (F)

Upthrust force, (U)

Its weight W is acting in downward direction. The upthrust force U acts in upward direction. When the balloon is moving upward, the air resistance is in downward and vice versa.

In this case, the hot-air balloon descends vertically at constant speed.

so, $a=0$
