The tension in the string with friction would be the biggest because of the involvement of the force of gravity. This would result in that the friction force that is acting on the system. There is no friction in the frictionless system, and only the force of gravity is relevant.

Answer:

In case 2

Explanation:

Thinking process:

The friction is a force that tends to oppose motion.

In case 1, the block slides without friction. This means that the surface is a smooth surface. Thus, the net force needed to pull the string is minimal.

In case 2, there is kinetic friction between the sliding block and the table. Now, the kinetic friction is given by the formula:

F = \muN\mu N

where, \mu = coefficient of friction and N = normal force.

Thus, the net force needed:

F_{net} = F_{pull} - \mu N

Thus, the force is larger in case 2.

Therefore, the tension is larger in case 2.

Joaquin is at rest at the top of a hill on a skateboard. Four seconds later, he reaches the bottom of the hill at a final veloci
Andre45 [30]

Explanation:

Given: Initial Velocity=0

Final Velocity= 20 m/s

Time= 4 s

Accleration: Unknowns

Use kinematic equation

v   _{f} = v _{i} + at

20 = 0 + at

\frac{20m}{s}  = a(4s)

a =  \frac{5m}{ {s}^{2} }

so a = 5 m/s^2

A hot iron ball of mass 200 g is cooled to a temperature of 22°C. 6.9 kJ of heat is lost to the surroundings during the process.
qaws [65]
Heat lost or gained, H = mc(θ₂ - θ₁) 
Where m = mass, c = Specific heat capacity, θ₂= final temperature, θ₁ = initial temperature

m = 200g, c = 0.444 J/g°C, θ₁ = 22 °C  (Since it was cooled).

H = 6.9 kj = 6.9 *1000J = 6900 J

6900 = 200*0.444* (θ₂ - 22)

6900/(200*0.444)  =  θ₂ - 22

77.70 = θ₂ - 22

θ₂ - 22 = 77.7

θ₂      =  77.7 + 22 = 99.7

So initial temperature before cooling ≈ 100°C .  Option C.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In 2019 was taken the first image of a supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope, which is a network of radio telescope located in different points of the Earth, with the purpose of making a telescope of the size of the Earth.

A radio telescope is an antenna that is capable to perceive the light in the radio part of the electromagnetic spectrum¹.

It is important to notice that in the picture what it can be seen is the effect that the black hole has in the nearby stars.

Key terms:

¹Electromagnetic spectrum: decomposition of light in its different wavelengths (from radio waves to gamma rays).
