When you’re driving on a level road and there’s ice on the pavement, you hardly notice that ice while you’re heading straight at

a constant speed. Why is it that you only notice how slippery the road is when you try to turn left or right, or to speed up or slow down?

Answer:We only Friction while accelerating or decelerating

Explanation:

This occurs because when we try to turn left or right , we are trying to change the velocity of car which in turns result in acceleration and finally change in force .

Change in force causes friction to vary and we experience the slipperiness of road.

A double-slit experiment uses light of wavelength 650 nm with a slit separation of 0.100 mm and a screen placed 4.0 m away. a) W
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Slit separation d = .1 x 10⁻³ m

Screen distance D = 4 m

wave length of light  λ = 650 x 10⁻⁹ m

Width of central fringe = λ D / d

= \frac{650\times10^{-9}\times4}{.1\times10^{-3}}

= 26 mm

b ) Distance between 1 st and 2 nd bright fringe will be equal to width of dark fringe which will also be equal to 26 mm

c ) Angular separation between the central maximum and 1 st order maximum will be equal to angular width of fringe which is equal to

λ  / d

= \frac{650\times10^{-9}}{.1\times10^{-3}}

= 6.5 x 10⁻³ radian.

How far will a rubber ball fall in 10 seconds?
Inessa [10]

If it's not moving at all at the beginning of the 10 seconds, then it falls 490 meters straight down in 10 seconds.

(Note: This is true of all objects on Earth . . . rubber balls, feathers, grains of sand, school buses, battle ships . . . everything.  As long as air doesn't hold them back.  Anything falling from rest falls 490 meters in the first 10 seconds.)

In your physics lab you are given a 10.1-kg uniform rectangular plate with edge lengths 68.7 cm by 47.5 cm. Your lab instructor
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

2.35 kgm^2

Explanation:

we take length 68.7 cm as x-axis and 47.5 cm as y-axis then the axis about which we have to find out moment of inertia will be z-axis.

moment of inertia about x-axis

I_x = ML^2 /3 = 10.1\times 0.4752 /3 = 0.7596 kg-m2

I_y = 10.1\times 0.6872 / 3 = 1.5889 kgm^2

by perpendicular axis theorem

I_z = I_x + I_y = 0.7596 + 1.5889 = 2.35 kgm^2

Two points charges are brought closer together,increasing the force between them by a factor of 25.By what factor wa their separ
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The separation between the charges was decreased by a factor of 0.2

Explanation:

The Coulomb's force between two charges is given by;

F = \frac{kq^2}{r^2} \\\\let \ kq^2 \ be \ constant\\\\F_1r_1^2 = F_2r_2^2\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{F_1r_1^2}{F_2} \\\\increasing \ the \ force \ between \ them \ by \ factor \ of \ 25\\\\(F_2 = 25F_1)\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{F_1r_1^2}{25F_1}\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{r_1^2}{25}\\\\r_2 = \sqrt{\frac{r_1^2}{25} }\\\\ r_2 = \frac{r_1}{5}

r₂ = 0.2r₁

Therefore, the separation between the charges was decreased by a factor of 0.2.
