The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us. It keeps changing the direction of the Moon's velocity. This means gravity makes the Moon accelerate all the time, even though its speed remains constant.
Explanation:
Assuming the wall is frictionless, there are four forces acting on the ladder.
Weight pulling down at the center of the ladder (mg).
Reaction force pushing to the left at the wall (Rw).
Reaction force pushing up at the foot of the ladder (Rf).
Friction force pushing to the right at the foot of the ladder (Ff).
(a) Calculate the reaction force at the wall.
Take the sum of the moments about the foot of the ladder.
∑τ = Iα
Rw (3.0 sin 60°) − mg (1.5 cos 60°) = 0
Rw (3.0 sin 60°) = mg (1.5 cos 60°)
Rw = mg / (2 tan 60°)
Rw = (10 kg) (9.8 m/s²) / (2√3)
Rw = 28 N
(b) State the friction at the foot of the ladder.
Take the sum of the forces in the x direction.
∑F = ma
Ff − Rw = 0
Ff = Rw
Ff = 28 N
(c) State the reaction at the foot of the ladder.
Take the sum of the forces in the y direction.
∑F = ma
Rf − mg = 0
Rf = mg
Rf = 98 N
Answer:
Geometrical optics, or ray optics, describes the propagation of light in terms of "rays" which travel in straight lines, and whose paths are governed by the laws of reflection and refraction at interfaces between different media.
Advances in technology used to study and observe atoms lead to the discovery of electrons, protons, nuetrons, and the quarq
The ampere (symbol: A) is the SI base unit of electric current equal to one coulomb per second.
The ampere is that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length, of negligible circular cross section, and placed 1 meter apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to 2 times 10–7 newton per meter of length.
Electric current is the time rate of change or displacement of electric charge.
One ampere represents the rate of 1 coulomb of charge per second.
The ampere is defined first (it is a base unit, along with the meter, the second, and the kilogram), without reference to the quantity of charge.
The unit of charge, the coulomb, is defined to be the amount of charge displaced by a one ampere current in the time of one second.
This is your answer friend. Hope it helps you.
