A person is straining to lift a large crate, without success because it is too heavy. We denote the forces on the crate as follo

ws: P is the upward force the person exerts on the crate, C is the vertical contact force exerted on the crate by the floor, and W is the weight of the crate. How are the magnitudes of these forces related while the person is trying unsuccessfully to lift the crate?

Answer:

P + C = W if in equilibrium?

P + C - W = 0; P + C = W

Explanation:

Action and reaction are equal and opposite according to newton's third law of motion. a force is that which tends to change a body's state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, recall

P is the upward force the person exerts on the crate,

C is the vertical contact force exerted on the crate by the floor,

W is the weight of the crate

let the sum of upward forces be on the left hand side of the equation and the sum of downward forces on the right hand side.

P+C=W

P+C-W=0 if they are in equilibrium

the forces are related by the above.

Why are electrons, rather than protons, the principal charge carriers in metal wires?
Ket [755]
<span>because in any atom the electrons are in the outer orbitals while protons are within the nucleus together with the neutrons. If energy is supplied electrons can jump to higher energy levels and leave the lower orbitals. 
Especially in metals the conduction band is partially filled at room temperature with allows free flow of electrons throughout the metal thus they carry charge. 
(it requires huge amounts of energy to remove a proton from the nucleus such things happen on the surface of sun).</span><span>

ANEK [815]

Answer:

A.model the reflection of a light wave

The Wave Model of Light Toolkit provides teachers with standards-based resources for designing lesson plans and units that pertain to such topics as the light's wavelike behaviors, wave-particle duality, light-wave interference, and light polarization

B. .model the absorption of a light wave

The simplest model is the Drude/Lorentz model, where the light wave makes charged particle oscillate while the particle is also being damped by a force of friction (damping force)

A mirror provides the foremost common model for reflective light wave reflection and generally consists of a glass sheet with a gold coating wherever the many reflections happen. Reflection is increased in metals by suppression of wave propagation on the far side their skin depths

C.model the transmimssion of a light wave

The Wave Model describes how light propagates in the same way as we model ocean waves moving through the water. By thinking of light as an oscillating wave, we can account for properties of light such as its wavelength and frequency. By including wavelength information, the Wave Model can be used to explain colors.

A solar eclipse will occur Group of answer choices
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

3. at new Moon only when the Moon is on the ecliptic.

Explanation:

  • Solar eclipse is the condition when the moon comes in between the sun and the earth. In this condition the moon casts its shadow on the earth.
  • Whether the eclipse is a total solar eclipse, a partial solar eclipse or an annular solar eclipse depends on various factors, but the position of the moon must be on the same orbital plane as that of the earth's orbit around the sun.
  • The sun is about 400 times larger than the moon in size and the sun is almost 400 times farther from the earth than the moon is, this makes it possible for the moon to cover the sun completely leading to a complete solar eclipse.
  • As we know that the orbit of the earth around the sun and the orbit of the moon around the earth is elliptical which leads to a variation in the distance from their rotating centers, so not of every eclipse the moon covers the sun completely developing an annular eclipse.
  • When the moon is close enough to the earth on the ecliptic but not completely aligned in between the sun and the earth leads to a partial solar eclipse.

Tectonic plates are large segments of the earth's crust that move slowly. suppose one such plate has an average speed of 4.8 cm
user100 [1]
<span>one year is 365, 1 day is 24 hours, 1 hour is 60 minutes, 60 minutes is 60 seconds, thus (365 * 24 * 60 * 60) = 31,536,000 one year is equal to 31,536,000 seconds. the plate has a speed of 4.8 cm every 31,536,000 seconds. lets find out how far it goes in 40 seconds. (4.8/31,536,000)*40 = 0.00000608828 The plate moves 0.00000608828 cm every 40 seconds</span>
