Refer to the diagram shown below.

μ =  the coefficient of dynamic friction between the crate and the ramp.

1. The applied force of F acts over a distance, d.
    The work done is F*d.

2. The component of the weight of the crate acting down the ramp is
    mg sin(30) = 0.5mg. 
    The work done by this force is 0.5mgd.

3. The normal force is N = mgcos(30) = 0.866mg.
     This force is perpendicular to the ramp, therefore the work done is zero.

4. The frictional force is μN = μmgcos(30) = 0.866μmg.
    The work done by the frictional force is 0.866μmgd.

5. The total force acting on the crate up the ramp is
     F - mgsin(30) - μmgcos(30) = F - mg(0.5 - 0.866μ) 

6. The work done on the crate by the total force is
    d*(F - 0.5mg - 0.866μmg)

A large sheet of charge has a uniform charge density of 9  μCm2. What is the electric field due to this charge at a point just
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Explanation:

Surface charge density, σ = 9 μC/m² = 9 x 10^-6 C/m²

According to the Gauss theorem,

Electric field due to the sheet is given by

E = \frac {\sigma }{2\epsilon _{0}}

E = \frac{9\times 10^{-6}}{2\times 8.854\times 10^{-12}}

E = 5.08 x 10^5 N/C

An electron with speed 2.45 x 10^7 m/s is traveling parallel to a uniform electric field of magnitude 1.18 x 10^4N/C . How much
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

time will elapse before it return to  its staring point is 23.6 ns

Explanation:

given data

speed u = 2.45 × 10^{7} m/s

uniform electric field E = 1.18 × 10^{4} N/C

to find out

How much time will elapse before it returns to its starting point

solution

we find acceleration first by electrostatic force that is

F = Eq

here

F = ma by newton law

so

ma = Eq

here m is mass , a is acceleration and E is uniform electric field and q is charge of electron

so

put here all value

9.11 × 10^{-31} kg ×a = 1.18 × 10^{4} × 1.602 × 10^{-19}

a = 20.75 × 10^{14} m/s²

so acceleration is 20.75 × 10^{14} m/s²

and

time required by electron before come rest is

use equation of motion

v = u + at

here v is zero and u is speed given and t is time so put all value

2.45 × 10^{7} = 0 + 20.75 × 10^{14} (t)

t = 11.80 × 10^{-9} s

so time will elapse before it return to  its staring point is

time = 2t

time = 2 ×11.80 × 10^{-9}

time is 23.6 × 10^{-9} s

time will elapse before it return to  its staring point is 23.6 ns

the pygmy shrew has an average mass of 2.0 g if 49 of these shrew are placed on a spring scale with a spring constant of 24 N/m
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Spring's displacement, x = -0.04 meters.

Explanation:

Let the spring's displacement be x.

Given the following data;

Mass of each shrew, m = 2.0 g to kilograms = 2/1000 = 0.002 kg

Number of shrews, n = 49

Spring constant, k = 24 N/m

We know that acceleration due to gravity, g is equal to 9.8 m/s².

To find the spring's displacement;

At equilibrium position:

Fnet = Felastic + Fg = 0

But, Felastic = -kx

Total mass, Mt = nm

Fg = -Mt = -nmg

-kx -nmg = 0

Rearranging, we have;

kx = -nmg

Making x the subject of formula, we have;

x = \frac {-nmg}{k}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

x = \frac {-49*0.002*9.8}{24}

x = \frac {-0.9604}{24}

x = -0.04 m

Therefore, the spring's displacement is -0.04 meters.

If you place a glass cylinder in Wessin Oil, the view of the cylinder nearly disappeared when the eyedropper was full of Wessin
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. the indices of refraction matched

Explanation:

The index of refraction, or refractive

index, is a measure of how fast light

rays travel through a given medium.

Alternatively, it could be said that

the refractive index is the measure of

the bending of a light ray when

passing from one medium to

another. Mathematically, it can be

represented as a ratio between two

different velocities – the velocity of

light in vacuum and the velocity of

light in a given medium.

For example, try putting a pencil in a jar full of water. If you look at the pencil from above, it would look as though the pencil has bent in the water. That happens due to the refraction of light. It occurs because as light rays enter water, they slow down, as the speed of light in water is lower than the speed of light in air. The magnitude of how much a medium refracts a light ray is determined by the index
