Answer:

a) μs=0.34

b) μk=0.27

Explanation:

Given that

Mass , m = 21 kg

Force required to move the block ,F= 73 N

The force required to keep the block in motion ,F ' = 58 N

Coefficient of the static friction  :

The maximum value of the static friction force

fr= μs m g

At rest position

F=  fr

73 = μs x 21 x 10   (take g= 10 m/s²)

\mu_s=\dfrac{73}{210}

μs=0.34

Therefore the Coefficient of the static friction  will be 0.34.

Coefficient of the kinetic  friction  ;

Value of the kinetic friction force   ,fr= μk m g

F' = Fr

To move the block at constant speed

58 = μs x 21 x 10                 (take g= 10 m/s²)

\mu_k=\dfrac{58}{210}

μk=0.27

Therefore the Coefficient of the static friction  will be 0.27.

A transparent oil with index of refraction 1.28 spills on the surface of water (index of refraction 1.33), producing a maximum o
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The thickness of the oil slick is 1.95\times10^{-7}\ m

Explanation:

Given that,

Index of refraction = 1.28

Wave length = 500 nm

Order m = 1

We need to calculate the thickness of oil slick

Using formula of thickness

2nt= m\lambda

Where, n = Index of refraction

t = thickness

\lambda = wavelength

Put the value into the formula

2\times1.28 \times t=1\times\times500\times10^{-9}

t = \dfrac{1\times\times500\times10^{-9}}{2\times1.28 }

t=1.95\times10^{-7}\ m

Hence, The thickness of the oil slick is 1.95\times10^{-7}\ m

A vector A⃗ has a magnitude of 40.0 m and points in a direction 20.0∘ below the positive x axis. A second vector, B⃗, has a magn
jolli1 [7]

The magnitude of the vector C is 96.32m

<h3>How to solve for the magnitude of vector c</h3>

Ax = AcosθA

= 40 cOS 20

= 37.59

Ay = AsinθA

-40sin20

= -13.68

Bx = B cos θ B

= 75Cos50

= 48.21

By = BsinθB

= 75sin50

= 57.45

Cx = AX + Bx

= 37.59 + 48.21

= 85.8

Cy = Ay + By

= -13.65 + 57.45

= 43.77

The magnitude is solved by

|c| = \sqrt{Cx^{2}+Cy^{2}  }

= √85.8² + 43.77²

= 96.32m

The magnitude of the vector c is 96.32m

50 points please help ASAP! !
Contact [7]

Answer:

The sum of the initial and final velocity is divided by 2 to find the average. The average velocity calculator uses the formula that shows the average velocity (v) equals the sum of the final velocity (v) and the initial velocity (u), divided by 2.

if the resistance of a car headlight is 15 ohm and the current through it is 0.60, what is the voltage across the headlight?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

9 volts (assuming 0.60 is in Amperes)

Explanation:

Recall that Ohms law can be expressed as

V = IR, where

V = voltage,

I = current (given as 0.6. I'm going to assume that the units is Amperes because it is not given)

R = resistance (given as 15 ohm)

substituting the above values into the formula

V = IR

V = (0.6)(15)

V = 9 Volts
