tangare [24]

Answer: c. they will hit the ground at the same time

Explanation:

The volume of both objects is almost the same, so the force of friction will be the same in each one, so we can discard it.

Now, when yo drop an object, the acceleration of the object is always g = 9.8m/s^2 downwards, independent of the mass of the object.

So if you drop two objects with the same volume but different mass, because the acceleration is the same for both of them, they will hit the ground at the same time, this means that the density of the object has no impact in how much time the object needs to reach the floor.

So the correct option is c

Suppose that you observe light emitted from a distant star to be at a wavelength of 525 nm. The wavelength of light to an observ

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of observer = 525 nm

Wave length of source = 950 nm

We need to calculate the velocity

If the direction is from observer to star.

From Doppler effect

$\lambda_{0}=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times\lambda_{s}$

Put the value into the formula

$525=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times950$

$\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=(\dfrac{525}{950})^2$

$\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=0.305$

$c+v=0.305\times(c-v)$

$v(1+0.305)=c(0.305-1)$

$v=\dfrac{0.305-1}{1+0.305}c$

$v=−0.532c$

Negative sign shows the star is moving toward the observer.

Hence, The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.

A 35 kg box rests on the back of a truck. The coefficient of static friction bet?005 (part 1 of 2)A 35 kg box rests on the back

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of box=35 kg

Coefficient of static friction between box and truck bed=0.202

Acceleration due to gravity= $9.8 m/s^2$

a.We have to find the force by which the box accelerates forward.

Force by which box accelerates= $\mu mg=0.202\times 9.8\times 35$

Force by which box accelerates= $62.286 N$

b.We have to find the maximum acceleration can the truck have before the box slides.

Force =friction force

$ma=\mu mg$

$a=\mu g=9.8\times 0.202=1.9796 m/s^2$

Hence, the truck can have maximum acceleration before the box slide= $1.9796 m/s^2$
