You push a coin across a table. The coin stops. How does this motion relate to balanced and unbalanced forces?

Physics

Snezhnost [94]3 years ago

If you are pushing the coin across the table at a constant rate, the friction of the table and the horizontal force of your hand pushing are equal, and the coin itself moves at a constant rate. If you push a coin and let it go, there is no horizontal force keeping the coin going. Friction slows the coin to a stop. In both cases, the gravitational downward pull of Earth is equally but oppositely resisted by the upward push of table on the coin.

An electron moving to the right at 1.0% the speed of
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(a) In the direction of velocity

(b) E = - 639.84 N/C

Solution:

As per the question:

Speed of the electron, v_{e} = 0.1% c

where

c = 3\times 10^{8}\ m/s

Thus

v_{e} = 3\times 10^{6}\ m/s

Distance, x = 4.0 cm

Now,

(a) The direction of the electric field is the same as that of the velocity.

(b) The electric field strength can be calculated as:

By Kinematics eqn:

v'^{2} = v_{e}^{2} + 2ax

0 = (3\times 10^{6})^{2} + 2a\times 0.04

a = -1.125\times 10^{14}\ m/s^{2}

Electric field strength can be calculated as:

E = \frac{F}{q}

Also,

F = ma

m = mass of electron = 9.1\times 10^{- 31}\ kg

q = charge on electron = 1.6\times 10^{- 19}\ C

Thus

E = \frac{ma}{q} = \frac{9.1\times 10^{- 31}\times - 1.125\times 10^{14}}{1.6\times 10^{- 19}}

E = - 639.84 N/C

After the sun exhausts its nuclear fuel, its ultimate fate may be to collapse to a white dwarf state. in this state, it would ha
fenix001 [56]
To calculate the density of the white dwarf we need the mass of the Sun and the radius of the Earth:
- Sun mass: M=1.99 \cdot 10^{30}kg
- Earth radius: r=6.37 \cdot 10^6 m
Assuuming the dwarf to be a perfect sphere, its volume is V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3.
The average density is given by
d= \frac{M}{V}
so, substituting we find
d= \frac{M}{ \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 }=1.83 \cdot 10^9 kg/m^3

The boat slightly moves backward when we jump from it.give reason
emmainna [20.7K]
Newton’s Third Law!

Every action has an equal, but opposite, reaction. When you jump from the boat, you exert force on the boat as you leap from it. Since the boat rests on a liquid instead of a solid (much less friction), it moves away from the jumper as a result of the leap.

A mature thunderstorm will contain both updrafts and downdrafts. True or False
jasenka [17]

A mature thunderstorm will contain both updraft and downdrafts. The given statement is true.

When the cumulus cloud becomes very large, the water in it becomes large and heavy. Raindrops start to fall through the cloud when the rising air can no longer hold them up. Meanwhile, cool dry air starts to enter the cloud. Because cool air is heavier than warm air, it starts to descend in the cloud (known as a downdraft). The downdraft pulls the heavy water downward, making rain.

This cloud has become a cumulonimbus cloud because it has an updraft, a downdraft, and rain. Thunder and lightning start to occur, as well as heavy rain. The cumulonimbus is now a thunderstorm cell.
