Answer:

μ =tanθ

Explanation:=

The ratio of the force of static friction and the normal reaction is equal to tanθ. F=mgsinθ. R = mgcosθ.

μ=tanθ

Answer: So the static friction force must be equal to g*m*cos( θ)

Explanation: The force downwards of the block will be equal to the component with respect of where it can move.

So the force downwards will be:

F = Weight*cos( θ)

And we know that the weight is w = -m*g where g is the gravitational acceleration.

F = -g*m*cos( θ)

And we know that the block is at rest, so the net forces on it are equal to zero, this means that the gravitational force must be canceledby other one, and this can be the static friction force.

So the static friction force must be equal to g*m*cos( θ)

When the inferior angle of the scapula moves in the superior and lateral direction, the motion is called:
kkurt [141]

The motion of the inferior angle of the scapula in the superior and lateral direction is called upward rotation.

<h3>What are the possible motions of the scapula?</h3>

The scapula or the shoulder blade has about six different types of motion it undergoes.

The six ways of movement of the scapula are:

  • protraction,
  • retraction,
  • elevation,
  • depression,
  • upward rotation, and
  • downward rotation

When the inferior angle of the scapula moves in the superior and lateral direction, the motion is called upward rotation.

Light travels at the speed of approximately 3.0 × 108 meters per second. Find the time in minutes required for light to travel f
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

  t = 8.33 minutes

Explanation:

given,

Speed of Light, v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

distance between sun to Earth = 1.5 x 10¹¹ m

time taken to reach earth = ?

we know,

Distance = speed x time

t = \dfrac{d}{s}

t = \dfrac{1.5\times 10^{11}}{3\times 10^8}

      t = 500 s

1 min = 60 s

now, t = \dfrac{500}{60}\ minutes

          t = 8.33 minutes

time taken by the light to reach earth is equal to 8.33 minutes.
