The answer would be B. It's really a circuit breaker but it works by comparing the amount of electrical current going to and returning from the item.

If C is 1kg and D is 100kg, and the initial velocities of both balls are 5m/s, how would the magnitude of the forces exerted by
kupik [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

The forces exerted by each mass is best understood in terms of their momentum.

Momentum is a sort of compelling force or impulse. It is given as:

                  Momentum  =  mass x velocity

Let us consider the momentum of the balls;

Substance C;

    Mass  = 1kg

     Velocity  = 5m/s

    Momentum of C = 1 x 5  = 5kgm/s

Substance D:

      Mass  = 100kg

      Velocity  = 5m/s

     Momentum of D  = 100kg x 5m/s  = 500kgm/s

Body D has a higher momentum compared to Body C. This suggests that body D will exert a higher force than C when they collide.

The higher the momentum, the more the force of impact it has.

A combination lock has a 1.3-cm-diameter knob that is part of the dial you turn to unlock the lock. To turn that knob, you twist
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

0.04225 Nm

Explanation:

N = Force applied = 5 N

\mu = Coefficient of static friction = 0.65

d = Diameter of knob = 1.3 cm

r = Radius of knob = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.3}{2}=0.65\ cm

Force is given by

F=N\mu\\\Rightarrow F=5\times 0.65\\\Rightarrow F=3.25\ N

When we multiply force and radius we get torque

Torque on thumb

\tau_t=F\times r\\\Rightarrow \tau_t=3.25\times 0.0065\\\Rightarrow \tau_t=0.021125\ Nm

Torque on forefinger

\tau_f=F\times r\\\Rightarrow \tau_f=3.25\times 0.0065\\\Rightarrow \tau_f=0.021125\ Nm

The total torque is given by

\tau=\tau_t+\tau_f\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.021125+0.021125\\\Rightarrow \tau=0.04225\ Nm

The most torque that exerted on the knob is 0.04225 Nm

Assuming that Albertine's mass is 60.0 kg , for what value of μk, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

\mu_k=0.101

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Albertine, m = 60 kg

It can be assumed, the spring constant of the spring, k = 95 N/m

Compression in the spring, x = 5 m

A glass sits 19.8 m from her outstretched foot, h = 19.8 m

When she just reach the glass without knocking it over, a force of friction will also act on it. Using the conservation of energy for the spring mass system such that,

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=\mu_k mgh

\mu_k=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mgh}

\mu_k=\dfrac{95\times (5)^2}{2\times 60\times 9.8\times 19.8}

\mu_k=0.101

So, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the waxed floor is 0.101. Hence, this is the required solution.
