Newton's 2nd law of motion: 

                    Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                              = (50 kg) x (2 m/s²)

                              =    100 newtons .

When the weight of the object increase block what is the force of friction applied? Explanation?
erik [133]

Answer:

There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.

A water balloon is thrown horizontally from a tower that is 45 m high. It strikes the shoes of an unsuspecting passerby who is 4
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

14.85 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) of tower = 45 m

Horizontal distance (s) moved by the balloon = 45 m

Horizontal velocity (u) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the balloon to hit the shoe of the passerby. This is illustrated below:

Height (h) of tower = 45 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

45 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

45 = 4.8 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 45/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(45/4.9)

t = 3.03 s

Finally, we shall determine the magnitude of the horizontal velocity of the balloon as shown below:

Horizontal distance (s) moved by the balloon = 45 m

Time (t) = 3.03 s

Horizontal velocity (u) =?

s = ut

45 = u × 3.03

Divide both side by 3.03

u = 45/3.03

u = 14.85 m/s

Thus, the magnitude of the horizontal velocity of the balloon was 14.85 m/s

Select all that apply to electrons and energy levels. - Scientists have not yet determined exactly why electrons do not collapse
Elenna [48]

Answer:

- The limitation of the maximum number of electrons in a given energy level can be used to account for the periodic recurrence of properties as the number of electrons increases.

Explanation:

First - Scientists have not yet determined exactly why electrons do not collapse into the nucleus. FALSE: Scientists do know why electrons do not collapse. Since the beginins of quantum mechanics it's known that the energy at small scales is quantized, that means there only can be certain values meaning that the energy do not change continously. In the case of the electron, it can only have certain levels of energy, that means they do not radiate continously as the go arround the atom, instead it is only allowed to have a certain amount of energy in a given state therefore it can not lose energy continously collapsing into the nucleus.

Second - Electrons cannot be located between levels except when they are in the process of moving. FALSE: We can not say that a electron moves between energy levels, it only can exist in any of the levels, but never in between. Also, the electron in any of its possible energy lavels can not be located with complete certainty due to the uncertainty principle.

Fourth - Electrons have any random energy. FALSE:  as exposed above the electrons can only have certain cuantized energy levels acordinly to the rules of quantum physics

Fifth - Electrons can be found between energy levels. FALSE: Like said before we can not say that a electron exists between energy levels, it only can exist in any of the allowed levels, but never in between.

Thirth (correct one) :  - The limitation of the maximum number of electrons in a given energy level can be used to account for the periodic recurrence of properties as the number of electrons increases. TRUE: the maximum number of electrons allowed in a given energy level directly determines the tipe of bond an atom can made with another (this due to the number of electrons in the higest energy level), so for example the elements in the left of a given row of the periodic table tend to have ionic bonds, but in the other hand the elements on right side tend form more covalent bonds. And this characteristic directly correllate with diferent properties of the elements.
