How does the direction of friction relate to the direction of motion

1 answer:

5 0

It reacts to the motion. If the mass hanging from the pulley was overwhelmingly heavier than the mass on the ramp, it'll obviously pull the ramp mass up and thus friction would be trying to oppose this and vice versa.

How can you make the moon go around in a bigger circle

zlopas [31]

You would have to give it more mechanical energy.

Like, strap a bunch of powerful rockets to one side of the moon, with all of them pointing in the direction that the moon is already moving in its orbit. Then blast away.

NOTE: There aren't enough rockets or rocket fuel on Earth to make a difference, even if you used ALL of them. The mass of the moon is about

73,476,730,900,000,000,000,000 kilograms

(rounded to the nearest hundred trillion kilograms.)

That's a lot.

A stockroom worker pushes a box with mass 11.2 kg on a horizontal surface with a constant speed of 3.30 m/s . The coefIficient o

Artemon [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass =11.2kg

Constant velocity =3.3m/s

μk=0.25

Since the body is moving in constant velocity, then the acceleration is zero(0).

ΣF = Σ(ma)

The normal force acting on the body is upward and the weight is acting downward

Then ΣFy=0

Therefore, N=W

W=mg=11.2×9.8=109.76N

So, N=W=109.76N

Frictional force is given as

Fr=μkN

Fr=0.25×109.76

Fr=27.44N

Frictional force acting against the motion is 27.44N

Then the forward force moving the body forward

ΣF = Σ(ma)

Since a = 0

Then,

ΣF = 0

F-Fr=0

Then F=Fr

So the force moving the body forward is 27.44N

Magnitude of the resulting force on the 7 nC charge at the origin:

Fn₁= 23.95*10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

Look at the attached graphic:

Charges of positive signs exert repulsive forces on q₁ + and charges of negative signs exert attractive forces on q₁ +.

q₁ experiences three forces (F₂₁,F₃₁,F₄₁) and we calculate them with Coulomb's law:

F = (k*q₁*q)/(d)²

$d_{12} = \sqrt{3^{2}+3^{2} } = \sqrt{18}$ m : distance from q₁ to q₂

(d₁₂)² = 18 m²

$d_{13} =\sqrt{1^{2}+3^{2} } = \sqrt{10}$ m : distance from q₁ to q₃

(d₁₃)² = 10 m²

$d_{14} =\sqrt{3^{2}+2^{2} } = \sqrt{13}$ m : distance from q₁ to q₄

(d₁₄)² = 13 m²

K= 8.98755 × 10⁹ N *m²/C²

q₁= 7*10⁻⁹C

k*q₁=8.98755*10⁹ *7*10⁻⁹= 62.9

F₂₁= (62.9)*(9* 10⁻⁹) /(18) = 31.45*10⁻⁹ C

F₃₁= (62.9)*(7* 10⁻⁹) /(10) = 44*10⁻⁹ C

F₄₁= (62.9)*(8* 10⁻⁹) /(13) = 38.7*10⁻⁹ C

x-y components of the net force on q₁ (Fn₁):

α= tan⁻¹(3/3)= 45° , β= tan⁻¹(3/1)= 71.56° , θ= tan⁻¹(2/3)= 33.69°

Fn₁x = F₂₁x+ F₃₁x+F₄₁x

F₂₁x =+ F₂₁*cosα =+ (31.45*10⁻⁹)* (cos 45°) = +22.24 *10⁻⁹ N

F₃₁x= -F₃₁*cosβ = - ( 44*10⁻⁹)* (cos 71.56°) = -13.91 *10⁻⁹ N

F₄₁x= -F₄₁*cosθ = -(38.7*10⁻⁹)* (cos 33.69°) = -32.2*10⁻⁹ N

Fn₁x = (+22.24 - 13.91 - 32.2)*10⁻⁹ N

Fn₁x = -23.87 *10⁻⁹ N

Fn₁y = F₂₁y+ F₃₁y+F₄₁y

F₂₁x =+ F₂₁*sinα =+ (31.45*10⁻⁹)* (sin 45°) = +22.24 *10⁻⁹ N

F₃₁x= -F₃₁*sinβ = - ( 44*10⁻⁹)* (sin 71.56°) = -41.74 *10⁻⁹ N

F₄₁x= +F₄₁*sinθ = +(38.7*10⁻⁹)* (sin 33.69°) =+21.47*10⁻⁹ N

Fn₁y = (22.24 -41.74+21.47)*10⁻⁹ N

Fn₁y = 1.97*10⁻⁹ N

Magnitude of the resulting force on the 7 nC charge at the origin (q₁):

$F_{n1} =\sqrt{(Fn_{1x} )^{2}+(Fn_{1y} )^{2} }$

$F_{n1} =\sqrt{(23.87 )^{2}+(1.97 )^{2} }$

Fn₁= 23.95*10⁻⁹ N

A coaxial cable has a charged inner conductor (with charge +8.5 µC and radius 1.304 mm) and a surrounding oppositely charged con

Tcecarenko [31]

Complete question:

A 50 m length of coaxial cable has a charged inner conductor (with charge +8.5 µC and radius 1.304 mm) and a surrounding oppositely charged conductor (with charge −8.5 µC and radius 9.249 mm).

Required:

What is the magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors? The Coulomb constant is 8.98755 × 10^9 N.m^2 . Assume the region between the conductors is air, and neglect end effects. Answer in units of V/m.

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is 5.793 x 10⁵ V/m

Explanation:

Given;

charge of the coaxial capable, Q = 8.5 µC = 8.5 x 10⁻⁶ C

length of the conductor, L = 50 m

inner radius, r₁ = 1.304 mm

outer radius, r₂ = 9.249 mm

The magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is given by;

$E = \frac{\lambda}{2\pi \epsilon_o r} = \frac{Q}{2\pi \epsilon_o r L}$

Where;

λ is linear charge density or charge per unit length

r is the distance halfway between the two cylindrical conductors

$r = r_1 + \frac{1}{2}(r_2-r_1) \\\\r = 1.304 \ mm \ + \ \frac{1}{2}(9.249 \ mm-1.304 \ mm)\\\\r = 1.304 \ mm \ + \ 3.9725 \ mm\\\\r = 5.2765 \ mm$

The magnitude of the electric field is now given as;

$E = \frac{8.5*10^{-6}}{2\pi(8.85*10^{-12})(5.2765*10^{-3})(50)} \\\\E = 5.793*10^5 \ V/m$

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field halfway between the two cylindrical conductors is 5.793 x 10⁵ V/m
