Please help.: Sliding from left to right in a straight line on a horizontal steel surface, an aluminum block weighing 20 newtons

is acted on by a 2.4 newton friction force. The block will be brought to rest by the friction force in a distance of 10 meters. Determine the magnitude of the acceleration of the block as it is brought to rest by the friction force. (Show all work)

Mass of the block = 2/g = 2/9.8 =0.204 kg. 

Frictional force = mass * acceleration 

a = F/ m where F is the frictional force = 2.4 

a = 2.4/ 0.204 = 11.76 m/s^2

Answer:

-1.176 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

weight of aluminium block is w = 20.0 N

frictional force, f = 2.4 N

final velocity, v = 0

distance covered, d = 10 m

From Newton's second equation of motion,

F = ma

where, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

mass of the block, m g = 20.0 N

m = 2.04 kg

The block is brought to rest by friction force:

f =- m a

⇒ 2.4 N = -(2.04 kg)(a)

⇒a = -1.176 m/s²

Four point masses of 3.0 kg each are arranged in a square on masslessrods. The length of a side of the square is 0.50m. What is
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Part a)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

Part b)

I = 0.75 kg m^2

Part c)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

Explanation:

Part a)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through B and C is given as

I = mL^2 + mL^2 + m(0) + m(0)

I = 2mL^2

I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

Part b)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through A and C is given as

I = m(0^2) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(0) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2

I = 2m\frac{L^2}{2}

I = (3 kg)(0.50^2)

I = 0.75 kg m^2

Part c)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through the center of the square and perpendicular to the plane of the square

I = m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2

I = 4m\frac{L^2}{2}

I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

Which of these is the most likely impact of solar prominence on Earth?
svlad2 [7]

<span>Solar prominences themselves are of no concern because they are visible in the Hydrogen Alpha wavelength. They are anchored in place by magnetic fields. When these fields break or reconnect, it can send the plasma that makes up the prominence away from the sun. If one of these clouds impacts Earth, they are called CMEs or coronal mass ejections. Depending on the magnetic orientation of the cloud with respect to Earth's the CME can break down our magnetic field resulting in geomagnetic storms, aurorae, power grid fluctuations, and particle radiation near the poles, satellite single upset events, and radio blackouts. </span>

</span>

<span>Thus, letter a is the answer. </span>

Which of the following is the greatest component of plasma?
Xelga [282]
The main role of plasma is to take your nutrients, hormones, and protein to the cells that need it almost like a little grocery store that goes to your cells and drops of what they need
Plasma is also made up of 90% water 8%proteins and 2%hormones. Normally your blood should have 55% of it to be plasma unless your body is polycythemic or anemic.
