When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to a larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some p

oint "break loose" and start to accelerate down the board. The box begins to slide once the component of its weight parallel to the board, , equals the maximum force of static friction. Which of the following is the most general explanation for why the box accelerates down the board after it begins to slide (rather than sliding with constant speed)?
a. Once the box is moving, w|| is greater than the force of static friction but less than the force of kinetic friction.
b. Once the box is moving, w|| is less than the force of static friction but greater than the force of kinetic friction.
c. The coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of static friction.
d. When the box is stationary, w|| equals the force of static friction, but once the box starts moving, the sliding reduces the normal force, which in turn reduces the friction.

Answer:

c. The coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of static friction

Explanation:

When the box finally does break loose. Then the component of the box weight which is parallel to the board weight parallel component, is equal to the \mu_gn.

w_{box}=\mu_gn

For the box to acce;erate thee must be non-zero net force acting on the box parallel to the board. Or we can say,

w_1>f_g\\w_1>\mu_gn

Therefore the force of kinetic friction must be less than the force of static friction. Thus,

\mu_g

Answer:

air above a wild fire

Explanation:

the type of current formed in the pot is referred to as a convectional current which forms when the heated fluid rises making the cool fluid descend the same happens with the air above a wildfire a convectional current will form when the warm air rises and the cool air descends.the main reason for tge descending and ascending is that the air or liquid closest to the source of heat will get heated making it lighter but the air or liquid tgat was further from the source of heat will not be as light so as the warm fluid rises, the cool fluid descends.

A spring suspended vertically is 11.9 cm long. When you suspend a 37 g weight from the spring, at rest, the spring is 21.5 cm lo
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Time period of oscillations is 0.62 s

Explanation:

Due to suspension of weight the change in the length of the spring is given as

\Delta L = L_f - L_i

\Delta L = 21.5 - 11.9 = 9.6 cm

now we know that spring is stretched due to its weight so at equilibrium the force due to weight is counter balanced by the spring force

mg = kx

0.037 (9.81) = k(0.096)

k = 3.78 N/m

Now the period of oscillation of spring is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

Now plug in all values in it

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.037}{3.78}}

T = 0.62 s

Objects in space are moving at a constant velocity in a straight line.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a net positive or negative force.

For answer A. If the object were to be in an orbit, it would inevitably accelerate due to it being acted on by the gravitational force from the object it is orbiting. At different points in the orbit, the object will move at different speeds and continuously transfer between kinetic and potential energy.

For answer B. The object would would not stop their motion. In order for the object to lose energy, it would have to transfer it through friction or through its interaction with a gravitational field.

For answer D. No energy is "required" to maintain constant motion unless the object is willingly fighting against a resistive force like friction or a graviational well.
