You happen to know that the coefficient of static friction between your patio table and the ground is 0.42. You decide you want

to move it (45kg) by pushing on it. Are you able to move the table?

Answer:

If the force applied is larger than 185.2 N, yes.

Explanation:

In order to move the table, the pushing force must be larger than the frictional force. The frictional force is given by:

F_f = \mu mg

where

\mu=0.42 is the coefficient of static friction

m=45 kg is the mass of the table

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

Substituting,

F_f=(0.42)(45 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=185.2 N

So, we are able to move the table if we push with a force larger than 185.2 N.

What is the output voltage from a step up transformer with 25 turns in the primary coil and 75 turns in the secondary coil if th
Greeley [361]

Answer:

360 V

Explanation:

We can use the transformer equation:

\frac{V_p}{N_p}=\frac{V_s}{N_s}

where

V_p is the primary (input) voltage

N_p is the number of turns in the primary coil

V_s is the secondary (output) voltage

N_s is the number of turns in the secondary coil

In this problem,

V_p = 120 V\\N_p = 25\\N_s = 75

Substituting into the equation, we can find the output voltage:

V_s = N_s \frac{V_p}{N_p}=(75)\frac{120}{25}=360 V

How did ALS impact Stephen Hawking?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Professor Hawking had just turned 21 when he was diagnosed with a very rare slow-progressing form of ALS, a form of motor neurone disease (MND). He was at the end of his time at Oxford when he started to notice early signs of his disease. He was getting more clumsy and fell over several times without knowing why.

Hydrogen has only one electron in its only (and outer) electron shell. If a hydrogen atom were to absorb a small amount of energ
Xelga [282]

Answer:

D. move up to another shell that would form

Explanation:

An atom has protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons and neutrons are present in the nucleus and electrons orbit the nucleus in fixed shells. An electron can jump to higher shell when it gains energy and lower one when it loses energy. Thus, when single electron in hydrogen atom is given a small amount of energy, it would jump to another higher shell.

. Determine if approximate cylindrical symmetry holds for the following situations. State why or why not. (a) A 300-cm long copp
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

a) Yes

b) No

Explanation:

In the first case, part a, yes we can say for certainty that cylinderical symmetry holds. Why so? You may ask. This is because from the question, we are told that the length of the rod is 300 cm. And this said length is longer than the distance to the point from the center of the rod, which is 5 cm.

In the second half of the question, I beg to disagree that cylindrical symmetry holds. Again, you may ask why, this is because the length of the rod in this case, is having the same order of magnitude as the distance to the center of the rod. Thus, it is not symmetrical.
