Answer:

because the static friction is higher than the kinetic friction

Explanation:

Inertia is resistance to motion. Object resist changing its current motion or the rest position. This is the Newton's first law of motion

apart from this as the graph shows , the force needed to move when object at rest is higher than the force to change the motion of a moving body . this is because

<em>static friction > kinetic friction</em>

static friction is the friction acts on a object resting on a rough surface
kinetic friction is the friction acts on an object when it is moving on a rough surface

Hi there!

We can begin by finding the acceleration of the block.

Use the kinematic equation:

$d = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

The block starts from rest, so:

$d = \frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\12 = \frac{1}{2}a(4^2)\\\\\frac{24}{16} = a = 1.5 m/s^2$

Now, we can do a summation of forces of the block using Newton's Second Law:

$F = ma = m_bg - T$

mb = mass of the block

T = tension of string

Solve for tension:

$T = m_bg - ma = 8.2(9.8) - 8.2(1.5) = 68.06 N$

Now, we can do a summation of torques for the wheel:

$\Sigma \tau = rF\\\\\Sigma\tau = rT$

Rewrite:

$I\alpha = rT$

We solved that the linear acceleration is 1.5 m/s², so we can solve for the angular acceleration using the following:

$\alpha = a/r\\\\\alpha = 1.5/.42= 3.57 rad/sec^2$

Now, plug in the values into the equation:

$I(3.57) = (0.42)(68.06)\\\\I = (0.42)(68.06)/(3.57) = \boxed{8.00 kgm^2}$

Answer:5.21 N

Explanation:

Given

B=5.210 T

I=2 A

L=0.5 m

Given Wire is perpendicular to Magnetic field

$\theta =90^{\circ}$

$F=IL\times B$

$F=BIL sin\theta$

$F=5.210\cdot 2\cdot 0.5 sin(90)$

F=5.210 N

as 1 Tesla =1 N/A/m

The metal gold crystallizes in a face centered cubic unit cell with one atom per lattice point. When X-rays with λ = 1.436 Å are

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

r = 1.45 Å

Explanation:

given,

λ = 1.436 Å

θ = 20.62°

d = a

n = 2

metal gold crystallizes in a face centered cubic unit cell

Radius of the gold atom = ?

using Bragg's Law

n λ = 2 d sin θ

2 x 1.436 Å = 2 a sin 20.62°

a = 4.077 Å

We know relation of radius for face centered cubic unit cell

$a = \dfrac{4r}{\sqrt{2}}$

$4.077= \dfrac{4\times r}{\sqrt{2}}$

r = 1.45 Å

the radius of a(n) gold atom. is equal to 1.45 Å

How can smoking affect the respiratory system?

Smoking and Respiratory Disease

Smoking can cause lung disease by damaging your airways and the small air sacs (alveoli) found in your lungs. Lung diseases caused by smoking include COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking causes most cases of lung cancer.
