A ladder is leaning against a vertical wall, and both ends of the ladder are at the point of slipping. The coefficient of fricti

on between the ladder and the horizontal surface is μ1 = 0.195 and the coefficient of friction between the ladder and the wall is μ2 = 0.253. Determine the maximum angle with the vertical the ladder can make without falling on the ground.

Here:
Sum Fx| Fgx=Fw
SumFy| Fgy=mg-mu2xFw
SumTorques | Fw(Lcos(theta))=mg(L/2)sin(theta) - Now,this leads to-->Fw=Fg=(mg)/(2tan(theta))For no slipping Fgx<=mu1(Fgy)

Just make the substitutions and it gets ugly but the final thing you get should be 

theta= arctan[(1-mu1x mu2)/(2mu1)) , which equals 67.946 then subtract from 90 and viola!
you get the answer of 22.305

\large{ \boxed{ \bf{ \color{red}{Universal \: law \: of \: gravitation}}}}

Every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force which is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The forces along the line joining the centre of the two objects.

❍ Let us consider two masses m1 and m2 line at a separation distance d. Let the force of attraction between the two objects be F.

According to universal law of gravitation,

\large{ \longrightarrow{ \rm{F \propto m_1 m_2}}}

Also,

\large{ \longrightarrow{ \rm{ F \propto  \dfrac{1}{ {d}^{2} } }}}

Combining both, We will get

\large{ \longrightarrow{ \rm{F  \propto  \dfrac{ m_1 m_2}{ {d}^{2}}}}}

Or, We can write it as,

\large{ \longrightarrow{ \rm{F  \propto  \:  G \dfrac{ m_1 m_2}{ {d}^{2} }}}}

Where, G is the constant of proportionality and it is called 'Universal Gravitational constant'.

☯️ Hence, derived !!

How does the total amount of energy change as the spring goes up and down?
NeX [460]

The total amount of energy always stays the same because of the law of conservation of energy, meaning that there is always the same amount of energy, it just gets turned into different forms like potential energy, kinetic energy, sound, thermal, etc.

A car horn emits a frequency of 400 Hz. A car traveling at 20.0 m/s sounds the horn as it approaches a stationary pedestrian. Wh
Temka [501]

Answer:

The observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the source, Fs = 400 Hz

speed of the car as it approaches the stationary observer, Vs = 20 m/s

Based on Doppler effect, as the car the approaches the stationary observer, the observed frequency will be higher than the transmitted (source) frequency because of decrease in distance between the car and the observer.

The observed frequency is calculated as;

F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\

where;

F₀ is the observed frequency

v is the speed of sound in air = 340 m/s

F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\400 = F_o [\frac{340}{20 + 340} ] \\\\400 = F_o (0.9444) \\\\F_o = \frac{400}{0.9444} \\\\F_o = 423.55 \ Hz \\

F₀ ≅ 424 Hz.

Therefore, the observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

Assessing and monitoring your fluid levels will help you optimize your car's _______.
juin [17]

Answer:

A. fuel mileage and longevity          

Explanation:

           For a person purchasing a car, car longevity is one of the main concern. They are also interested in many things such as maximum mileage and service life.

           By properly monitoring and assessing few measures one can maintain the efficiency and longevity of the car. One such thing is by monitoring the liquid levels of the car. Certain liquids like the coolant or radiator water level should be well maintain in proper level in order to run the car economically.

Thus by doing this, one can optimize the car's longevity and the fuel mileage.

Hence the correct option is (A).
