lana66690 [7]

Answer:

<h2>Frictional force</h2>

Explanation:

For the block placed on the table, there are several force acting on the body along the horizontal and vertical axis. All this forces tends to keep the body in a state of equilibrium.The forces acting along the horizontal are the moving force (Fm) and the frictional force (Ff).

Frictional force are forces that acts opposite to the force that causes the body to move (moving force).

If Lien uses a spring scale to pull a block toward the right across the lab table and the scale reads 8 N, this means that the force that causes the body to move is the 8N force (moving force).

Taking the sum of force along the horizontal;

$\sum fx = ma_x$

Since the body is static, max = 0

$\sum fx = 0\\fm+(-Ff)= 0$

Note that the frictional force acts is the force of opposition acting in the negative x direction.

$fm = 0+Ff\\fm = Ff$

Since Fm = 8N, Ff will also be equal to 8N.

Based on the above proof, Lien can also conclude that 8 N is a frictional force

A 2290 kg car traveling to the west at 22.3 m/s slows down uniformly. How long would it take the car to come to a stop if the fo

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

5.72 s

Explanation:

From Newton's law, F = ma

The East is +ve direction, Hence,

F = +8930 N

m = 2290 kg

a = ?

8930 = 2290 × a

a = 8930/2290 = 3.90 m/s²

So, we will find the time it takes the car to stop using the equations of motion

a = 3.90 m/s²

u = initial velocity of the car = - 22.3 m/s (the velocity is to the west)

v = final velocity of the car = 0 m/s (since the car comes to rest)

t = time taken for the car to come to rest = ?

v = u + at

0 = - 22.3 + (3.90)(t)

3.9t = 22.3

t = 5.72 s

The CERN particle accelerator is circular with a circumference of 7.0 km.

Contact [7]

Answer:

$a_c=2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2$

$F=3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Explanation:

m = Mass of proton = $1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

v = Speed of proton = 0.5c = $0.5\times 3\times 10^8=1.5\times 10^8\ m/s$

Circumference of the colider is 7 km

$P=2\pi r\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{P}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{7000}{2\pi}\ m$

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow a_c=\frac{\left(1.5\times 10^8\right)^2}{\frac{7000}{2\pi}}\\\Rightarrow a_c=2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2$

Centripetal acceleration is $2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2$

$F_c=ma_c\\\Rightarrow F_c=1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 2.0196\times 10^{13}\\\Rightarrow F=3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Force on protons is $3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Closing Summary Questions: Phases of Matter

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Particles in all states of matter are in constant motion and this is very rapid at room temperature. A rise in temperature increases the kinetic energy and speed of particles; it does not weaken the forces between them. The particles in solids vibrate about fixed positions; even at very low temperatures.

Even with all of these state changes, it is important to remember that the substance stays the same—it is still water, which consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Changing states of matter are only physical changes; the chemical properties of the matter stays the same regardless of its physical state!
