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

It is summertime and the temperature is 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Johnny decides he is going to go swimming. He jumps in his pool
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Water temperatures are slow to heat up, It takes 4 times the energy to heat up water than to heat air. Water also "feels" colder because water is a more efficent medium than air to cool our body down.

Americium-241 is a radioactive substance used in smoke detectors. The half life of americium is 432 years. If a smoke detector i
romanna [79]

Answer:

0.5 g

Explanation:

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time it takes for a certain amount of that isotope to halve.

In this case, we have an isotope of Americium-241, which has a half-life of

\tau = 432 y

This means that after 1 half-life (432 years), there will be an amount of americium equal to half its initial amount.

In this problem, the initial amount of americium is

m_0 = 1 g

Therefore, after 432 years (1 half-life), the amount of americium left will be half:

m(432y) = \frac{m_0}{2}=0.5 g

Suppose that you are standing on a train accelerating at 0.20g. What minimum coefficient of static friction must exist between y
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Acceleration = (0.2 x g) = 1.96m/sec^2. 
<span>Accelerating force on 1kg. = (ma) = 1.96N. </span>
<span>1kg. has a weight (normal force) of 9.8N. </span>
<span>Coefficient µ = 1.96/9.8 = 0.2 minimum. </span>

<span>Coefficient is a ratio, so holds true for any value of mass to find accelerating force acting. </span>
<span>e.g. 75kg = (75 x g) = 735N. </span>
<span>Accelerating force = (735 x 0.2) = 147N</span>

A body-centered cubic lattice has a lattice constant of 4.83 Ă. A plane cutting the lattice has intercepts of 9.66 Å, 19.32 Å, a
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Miller Indices are [2, 4, 3]

Solution:

As per the question:

Lattice Constant, C = 4.83 \AA

Intercepts along the three axes:

\bar{x} = 9.66 \AA

\bar{x} = 19.32 \AA

\bar{x} = 14.49 \AA

Now,

Miller Indices gives the vector representation of the atomic plane orientation in the lattice and are found by taking the reciprocal of the intercepts.

Now, for the Miller Indices along the three axes:

a = \frac{1}{9.66}

b = \frac{1}{19.32}

c = \frac{1}{14.49}

To find the Miller indices, we divide a, b and c by reciprocal of lattice constant 'C' respectively:

a' = \frac{\frac{1}{9.66}}{\frac{1}{4.83}} = \frac{1}{2}

b' = \frac{\frac{1}{19.32}}{\frac{1}{4.83}} = \frac{1}{4}

c' = \frac{\frac{1}{14.49}}{\frac{1}{4.83}} = \frac{1}{3}
