an object at rest requires a force of 15 newtons to set it into motion. The force is greater than which force?​

Physics

Answer:

Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that opposes the movement of an object's relative motion. Friction always goes against the attempted movement of the object  when they are in contact. In other words, it is a force that prevents objects from sliding past each other.

A girl is sledding down a slope that is inclined at 30º with respect to the horizontal. The wind is aiding the motion by providi
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The sled required 9.96 s to travel down the slope.

Explanation:

Please, see the figure for a description of the problem. In red are the x and y-components of the gravity force (Fg). Since the y-component of Fg (Fgy) is of equal magnitude as Fn but in the opposite direction, both forces get canceled.

Then, the forces that cause the acceleration of the sled are the force of the wind (Fw), the friction force (Ff) and the x-component of the gravity force (Fgx).

The sum of all these forces make the sled move. Finding the resulting force will allow us to find the acceleration of the sled and, with it, we can find the time the sled travel.

The magnitude of the friction force is calculated as follows:

Ff = μ · Fn

where :

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

Fn =  normal force

The normal force has the same magnitude as the y-component of the gravity force:

Fgy = Fg · cos 30º = m · g · cos 30º

Where

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

Then:

Fgy = m · g · cos 30º = 87.7 kg · 9.8 m/s² · cos 30º

Fgy = 744 N

Then, the magnitude of Fn is also 744 N and the friction force will be:

Ff = μ · Fn = 0.151 · 744 N = 112 N

The x-component of Fg, Fgx, is calculated as follows:

Fgx = Fg · sin 30º = m·g · sin 30º = 87.7 kg · 9.8 m/s² · sin 30º = 430 N

The resulting force, Fr, will be the sum of all these forces:

Fw + Fgx - Ff = Fr

(Notice that forces are vectors and the direction of the friction force is opposite to the other forces, then, it has to be of opposite sign).

Fr = 161 N + 430 N - 112 N = 479 N

With this resulting force, we can calculate the acceleration of the sled:

F = m·a

where:

F = force

m = mass of the object

a = acceleration

Then:

F/m = a

a = 479N/87.7 kg = 5.46 m/s²

The equation for the position of an accelerated object moving in a straight line is as follows:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

where:

x = position at time t

x0 = initial position

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

a = acceleration

Since the sled starts from rest and the origin of the reference system is located where the sled starts sliding, x0 and v0 = 0.

x = 1/2· a ·t²

Let´s find the time at which the position of the sled is 271 m:

271 m = 1/2 · 5.46 m/s² · t²

2 · 271 m / 5.46 m/s² = t²

<u>t = 9.96 s </u>

The sled required almost 10 s to travel down the slope.

A proton is initially moving west at a speed of 1.10 106 m/s in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.281 T directed verticall
kifflom [539]

Answer:

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

Explanation:

As we know that proton is moving towards west while the magnetic field is vertically upwards

So here the force on the proton must be perpendicular to the velocity

So here we have

F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

so here we have

F = qvB sin90

since force is perpendicular to the velocity so here it must be centripetal force

here we have

\frac{mv^2}{R} = qvB

so we have

R = \frac{mv}{qB}

R = \frac{(1.66 \times 10^{-27})(1.10 \times 10^6)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.281)}

R = 4.06 cm

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm
