Imagine you are on the top of a mountain with four basketballs. The mass of the four basketballs are 100 kilograms, 200 kilogram

s, 300 kilograms, and 400 kilograms. If the basketballs rolled down the hill, which one would supply the greatest force at the bottom of the mountain (assume that their velocities were equal at the bottom of the mountain)?

Answer:

400 kilogram

Explanation:

Force exerted is directly proportional to the mass of an object.

F=ma where m is mass and a is acceleration. Taking uniform acceleration on all objects then the larger the mass the higher the force and vice versa. Theredore, among the masses given, 400 kilograms is the largest hence it exerts the largest force at the bottom

You are helping your friend move a new refrigerator into his kitchen. You apply a horizontal force of 275 N in the positive x di
Volgvan

Answer:

f = 347.08 N

Explanation:

The frictional force exerted by the floor on the refrigerator is given as follows:

f = \mu R = \mu W

where,

f = frictional force = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.58

W = Weight of refrigerator = mg

m = mass of refrigerator = 61 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

f = \mu mg\\f = (0.58)(61\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)\\

<u>f = 347.08 N</u>

Need help to get this question right!!
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

16 times as strong

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following assumptions were made:

Initial Force (F₁) = F

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r

Final force (F₂) =?

Next, we shall obtain a relationship between the force and the distance apart. This can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

Cross multiply

Fr² = GM₁M₂

If G, M₁ and M₂ are kept constant, then,

F₁r₁² = F₂r₂²

Finally, we determine the new force as follow:

Initial Force (F₁) = F

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r

Final force (F₂) =?

Fr² = F₂ × (¼r)²

Fr² = F₂ × r²/16

Fr² = F₂r² / 16

Cross multiply

16Fr² = F₂r²

Divide both side by r²

F₂ = 16Fr² / r²

F₂ = 16F

From the calculations made above, we can see that the new force is 16 times the original force.

Thus, the new force is 16 times stronger.

The ratio of the number of pigs to the number of horse in a farm is 2 to 3 (2:3), if therected are 24 horses, what is the number
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

16 pigs

Explanation:

Let the horses be H.

Let the pigs be P

Let the total number of animals be x.

Given the following data;

Ratio of P to H = 2:3 = 2 + 3 = 5

Number of horses = 24

To find the number of pigs;

First of all, we would determine the total number of animals x.

From the ratio of horse, H:

3/5 * x = 24

Cross-multiplying, we have;

3x = 120

x = 120/3 = 40

Next, we find the number of pigs;

Pigs = 2/5 * 40

Pigs = 80/5 = 16 pigs

solenoid is .3 m long and is wound with 2 layers of wire. the inner layer consists of 300 turns, the outer alyter of 250 turns.
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic field due to a solenoid

B = μ₀ nI  where n is no of turns per unit length and I is current

for outer  layer of turns

B = μ₀  x (250 / .3) x 3

= 4π x 10⁻⁷ x (250 / .3) x 3

= 3.14 x 10⁻³ T  

for inner layer of turns

B = μ₀  x (300 / .3) x 3

= 4π x 10⁻⁷ x (300 / .3) x 3

= 3.77 x 10⁻³ T

Total magnetic field

= (3.14 + 3.77 ) x 10⁻³ T  

= 6.91 x 10⁻³ T  .
