A child pushes horizontally on a box of mass m which moves with constant speed v across a horizontal floor. The coefficient of f

riction between the box and the floor is μ. At what rate does the child do work on the box?

4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box is m

speed of box is v

coefficient of friction \mu =\frac{1}{4}=0.25

Box is moving at a constant speed i.e. Net Force on box is zero

i.e. Frictional Force and Force Applied are Equal

F=f_r=\mu mg

The Rate at which power is generated is

P=F\cdot v

P=\mu mg\cdot v

P=0.25mgv

A single-slit diffraction pattern is formed on a distant screen. Assuming the angles involved are small, by what factor will the
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

It will be cut in half

Explanation:

The diffraction of a slit is given by the formula

a sin θ = m where

a = width of the slit,

λ = wavelength and

m = integer that determines the order of diffraction.

Next we divide both sides by a, we have

sin θ = m λ / a

Also, recall that

a’ = 2 a

Then we substitute in the previous equation

2asin θ' = m λ, if divide by 2a, we have

sin θ' = (m λ / 2a).

Now again, from the first equation, we said that sin θ = m λ / a, so we substitute

sin θ ’= sin θ / 2

Then we use trigonometry to find the width, we say

tan θ = y / L

Since the angle is small, we then have

tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

tan θ = sin θ, this then means that

sin θ = y / L

we will then substitute

y’ / L = y/L 1/2

y' = y / 2

this means that when the slit width is doubled the pattern width will then be halved

A book that weighs 19 Newtons sits on a table. With what force
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

We know there's two forces acting on a book while it sits on a table:the force of gravity pulling it down, and the normal force of the table acting upward on the book. The book isn't accelerating while it sits there. That's because the weight of the book is being counteracted by the normal force of the table.

Explanation:

There are two forces acting upon the book. One force - the Earth's gravitational pull - exerts a downward force. The other force - the push of the table on the book (sometimes referred to as a normal force) - pushes upward on the book.
