Ocean water conducts electrical current because it contains _____.

icang [17]

Ocean water conducts electrical current because it contains electrolytes. Electrolytes are good conductors of electricity, and are naturally present in appropriate amounts in bodies of water. However, pure water (without electrolytes or metals) is not a conductor of electricity.

What is the minimum force require to move a 5kg wooden crate on a wooden floor?

kolbaska11 [484]

You need to know the coefficient of static friction between a wooden object and a wooden surface. I'll denote it with µ. If you're given a specific value you should obviously use that.

By Newton's second law, the horizontal and vertical net forces are

• net horizontal:

∑ F = p - f = 0

• net vertical:

∑ F = n - w = 0

where

p = magnitude of the pushing force

f = mag. of friction

n = mag. of the normal force

w = weight of the crate

The second equation gives

n = w = (5 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 49 N

Friction is proportional to the normal force by a factor of µ, so

f = µ (49 N) = 49µ N

To overcome static friction, the push has to exceed this in magnitude, so that

p > 49µ N

For instance, if p = 0.25, then p would need to greater than 12.25 N. (This example isn't particularly helpful, though, since both possibly correct options are larger than 12.25 N...)

A ball is projected horizontally from the top of a bertical building 25.0m above the ground level with an initial velocity of 8.

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Solution given:

height [H]=25m

initial velocity [u]=8.25m/s

g=9.8m/s

now;

a. How long is the ball in flight before striking the ground?

Time of flight =?

Now

Time of flight= $\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

substituting value

= $\sqrt{\frac{2*25}{9.8}}$
=2.26seconds

<h3>the ball is in flight before striking the ground for 2.26seconds.</h3>

b. How far from the building does the ball strike the ground?

Horizontal range=?

we have

Horizontal range=u* $\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g}}$

=8.25*2.26
=18.63m

<h3>The ball strikes 18.63m far from building. </h3>

NGSS Physics

vovangra [49]

Answer: 3.5 seconds

EXPLANATION:

Using the formula:
v = u + at
And taking the upwards direction as positive, we have the following information:

u = 35 m/s
a = -10m/s^2 (this is acceleration due to gravity)

At the top of its path, the apple will have a velocity of 0 m/s, therefore:

v = 0m/s

Once you substitute everything into the formula, you get:

0 = 35 + (-10)t

Therefore, t = 35/10 = 3.5 seconds
