A student presses a book between his hands, as the drawing indicates. The forces that he exerts on the front and back covers of

the book are perpendicular to the book and are horizontal. The book weighs 32.9 N. The coefficient of static friction between his hands and the book is 0.416. To keep the book from falling, what is the magnitude of the minimum pressing force that each hand must exert?

Answer: 39.5 N

Explanation:

2 x force x static friction coefficient = weight  (weight=2μsF)

force = ?

static friction coefficient = 0.416

weight = 32.9N

substituting the values above into the equation we get

2 x F x 0.416 = 32.9

F = 32.9 / (2 x 0.416)

F = 39.5N

How can two items of the same shape and size have different densities?
Novay_Z [31]
They can be the same shape & size but they can have different mass. And mass is density so if they have different masses then they have different densities.

A man stands on a scale and holds a heavy object in his hands. What happens to the scale reading if the man quickly lifts the ob
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When he accelerates the heavy object up , the reading increases because an extra downward normal force acts on it, then scale reading returns to the same reading as when standing stationary, and then decreases as although he is lifting the heavy object , the acceleration is decreasing ,so the extra upward normal force acts.

A solid metal sphere of diameter D is spinning in a gravity-free region of space with an angular velocity of ωi. The sphere is s
Leona [35]

Answer:

0.6

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{D}{2})^3

Therefore \pi * r^2 * (\frac{D}{2} ) = \frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{D}{2})^3

r of the disc = 1.15(\frac{ D}{2} )

Using conservation of angular momentum;

The M_i of the sphere = \frac{2}{5} m \frac{D}{2}^2

M_i of the disc = m*\frac{   \frac{1.15*D}{2}^2 }{2}

\frac{wd}{ws} = \frac{\frac{2}{5}m * \frac{D}{2}^2}{  m * \frac{(\frac{`.`5*D}{2})^2 }{2} }

= 0.6
