There are two types of equilibrium in mechanics.One is called static equilibrium and the other one is called dynamic equilibrium. In both the cases of mechanical equilibrium,the net force acting on the particle is zero.
A body is said to be in dynamic equilibrium if the net force acting on a moving body is zero.There will be no acceleration of the body.The body will continue its uniform motion without change in its direction and speed.
The body is said to be in static equilibrium if the net force acting on a body at rest is zero.As the net force is zero,the body will not undergo motion. It is due to the inertia of the body.
The two equilibrium are the direct consequences of Newton's first law which tells that a body will continue to be at state of rest or uniform motion along a straight line unless and until it is compelled by some external unbalanced force.Hence as long as net force on the body is zero,the body at rest will satisfy static equilibrium.
Out of the four options given in the question only third option is right which tells that a book that has no net force acting on it and sitting on a table is under static equilibrium. If the net force is not zero,the body can not be under static equilibrium.The book resting on a table imparts a force equal to its weight on the table and table in turn gives the normal reaction in vertically upward direction.The gravity pulls the book in vertically downward direction with a force equal to its weigh.Hence the net force is zero.So the table will be at rest.
If the net force is not zero,the body can not be under static equilibrium.
Hence option 3 is right.
Answer:
Electricity is most often generated at a power plant by electromagnetic generators.
Answer:
1.75g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Density = 3.5g/cm³
Volume = 0.5cm³
Unknown:
Mass of the diamond = ?
Solution:
Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance
Density =
So;
Mass = 3.5 x 0.5 = 1.75g
The only thing acting as the roller coaster gets to the bottom is gravity thus
acceleration is 9.81
so u use the formula
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2abetaD
thus
distance = vf^2 - vi^2 divided by 2a
so 26^2 - 0^2 divided by 2(9.81m/s)
equals 676 divided by 2(9.81m/s)
= 34.45463812m
then use the appropriate 3 sig digs
so 34.5m
hopes this helps
