A student pulls a block over a rough surface with a constant force FP that is at an angle θ above the horizontal, as shown above

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

B.The force of friction between the block and surface will decrease.

Explanation:

The force of friction is given by

$F_s = \mu N$

where $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction and $N$ is the normal force.

When the student pulls on the block with force $F_p$ at an angle $\theta$ , the normal force on the block becomes

$N = Mg- F_psin(\theta)$

and hence the frictional force becomes

$F_s = \mu (Mg- F_psin(\theta))$ .

Now, as we increase $\theta$ , $sin(\theta)$ increases which as a result decreases the normal force $Mg- F_psin(\theta)$ , which also means the frictional force decreases; Hence choice B stands true.

P.S: Choice D is tempting but incorrect since the weight $W=mg$ is independent of the external forces on the block.

A baseball hit just above the ground leaves the bat 27 m/s at 45° above the horizontal. A) How far away does the ball strike the

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

A) The ball hits the ground 74.45 m far from the hitting position.

B) Maximum height of the ball = 18.57 m

Explanation:

There are two types of motion in this horizontal and vertical motion.

We have velocity = 27 m/s at 45° above the horizontal

Horizontal velocity = 27cos45 = 19.09 m/s

Vertical velocity = 27sin45 = 19.09 m/s

Time to reach maximum height,

v = u + at

0 = 19.09 - 9.81 t

t = 1.95 s

So total time of flight = 2 x 1.95 = 3.90 s

A) So the ball travels at 19.09 m/s for 3.90 seconds.

Horizontal distance traveled = 19.09 x 3.90 = 74.45 m

So the ball hits the ground 74.45 m far from the hitting position.

B) We have vertical displacement

S = ut + 0.5 at²

H = 19.09 x 1.95 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 1.95² = 18.57 m

Maximum height of the ball = 18.57 m

Why does increasing the number of trials increase confidence in the results of the experiment?

Paladinen [302]

It increases confidence because the more times you conduct the same experiment over and over should either prove your hypothesis right and wrong and eliminate any random occurrences that might affect your results.
