Magnitude of normal force acting on the block is 7 N

Explanation:

10N = 1.02kg

Mass of the block = m = 1.02 kg

Angle of incline Θ =  30°

Normal force acting on the block = N

From the free body diagram,

N = mgCos Θ

N = (1.02)(9.81)Cos(30)

N = 8.66 N

Rounding off to nearest whole number,

N = 7 N

Magnitude of normal force acting on the block = 7 N

I am Lyosha [343]

This is problem of free falling objects, which can be solved using the formula:

V = sqrt(2gy)

Where v is the velocity upon impact

G is the acceleration due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s2)

Y is the height

Since Venessa is 3.5 m

Y = 30 -3.5 = 26.5 m

V = sqrt(2 (9.81 m/s2) ( 26.5 m))

<span>V = 22.8 m/s</span>

find the period of a simple pendulum of 1m length placed on earth and on moon g on moon =1.67m/s² g on earth=10m/s²
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

T_{m } = 4.86 s

T_{e} = 1.98 s

Explanation:

<u><em>Given:</em></u>

Length = l = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity of moon = g_{m} = 1.67 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity of Earth = g_{e} = 10 m/s²

<u><em>Required:</em></u>

Time period = T = ?

<u><em>Formula:</em></u>

T = 2π \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

<u>For moon</u>

<em>Putting the givens,</em>

T = 2(3.14) \sqrt{\frac{1}{1.67} }

T = 6.3 \sqrt{0.6}

T = 6.3 × 0.77

T = 4.86 sec

<u>For Earth,</u>

<em>Putting the givens</em>

T = 2π \sqrt{\frac{1}{10} }

T = 2(3.14) \sqrt{0.1}

T = 6.3 × 0.32

T = 1.98 sec

A helium atom (mass 4.0 u) moving at 598 m/s to the right collides with an oxygen molecule (mass 32 u) moving in the same direct
labwork [276]

Answer:

Speed of the helium after collision = 246 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of helium ,m₁ = 4 u

u₁=598 m/s

Mass of oxygen ,m₂ = 32 u

u₂  = 401 m/s

v₂ =445 m/s

Given that initially both are moving in the same direction and lets take they are moving in the right direction.

Speed of the helium after collision = v₁

There is no any external force on the masses that is why the linear momentum will be conserve.

Initial linear momentum = Final linear momentum

P = m v

m₁u₁+m₂u₂ = m₁v₁+m₂v₂

598 x 4 + 32 x 401 = 4 x v₁+ 32 x 445

v₁ = 246 m/s

Speed of the helium after collision = 246 m/s

Which of the following statements is false? Group of answer choices Light that is high in energy has a high frequency. The atomi
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The last statement is false.

Explanation:

Photons (Electromagnetic radiation) are released when electrons drop from a higher energy lever to a lower energy level. Therefore the opposite insinuated by the last statement is wrong.

What holds the moon in place, orbiting around the Earth
AnnZ [28]

The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us. It keeps changing the direction of the Moon's velocity. This means gravity makes the Moon accelerate all the time, even though its speed remains constant.
