A 7.5­kg block is sliding down a wall with constant velocity. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the wall
weqwewe [10]
Ok, a couple of things have to be accounted for here.  First, since the block is moving relative to the wall we have to use the kinetic coefficient of friction, 0.40.  The second consideration is that since the block is moving at a constant velocity, the acceleration is zero.  This means, by Newton's second Law, that the net force is zero.  So the force of gravity must be equal to the friction force of the wall resisting its fall. This friction force is the product of the normal force (which we are seeking) and the kinetic coefficient of friction. We can then set these two forces equal:

F_{gravity}=mg \\  \\ F_{friction}=F_{norm} \mu_k \\  \\ mg=F_{norm} \mu_k \\  \\ F_{norm}= \frac{mg}{ \mu_k} \\  \\  F_{norm}= \frac{7.5(9.79)}{0.4}=183.6N

. The earth revolves around the sun in the counterclockwise direction, completing one full revolution about every 365 days. In r
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The earth makes in  365 day 1 revolution

The earth makes in 1 day     1 / 365 revolutions

1 / 365 revolution per day

n = 1 / 365 per day .

n is called frequency of revolutions .

Angular velocity = 2π n

= 2 π x 1 / 365

= .0172 radian / day

What’s the difference between mechanical and chemical weathering
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Mechanical weathering is the physical breakdown of rock into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering is the breakdown of rock by chemical processes.

Explanation:

Mechanical weathering (also called physical weathering) breaks rock into smaller pieces. These smaller pieces are just like the bigger rock, just smaller. That means the rock has changed physically without changing its composition. The smaller pieces have the same minerals, in just the same proportions as the original rock.

Chemical weathering is the other important type of weathering. Chemical weathering is different from mechanical weathering because the rock changes, not just in size of pieces, but in composition Chemical weathering works through chemical reactions that cause changes in the minerals.

Assume that the Moon is in circular orbit around the Earth. The distance between the Moon and the Earth is approximately 3.56 ×
stira [4]

Answer:

Acceleration = 311.2 Km/hr²

Explanation:

Given: Radius of the Orbit  r= 3.56 × 10⁶ km

Period of the orbit = 28 days = 672 hrs

Sol: We have Fc = MV²/r

⇒M ac = MV²/r

⇒ac = V²/r

First we have to Speed V so for this we have to find the circumference ( distance covered by the moon in one orbit)

⇒ Circumference= 2 π r

= 2 × 3.13149 × 3.56 × 10⁶ km

= 22,368,139.69 Km

Now Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 22,368,139.69 Km / 672 hrs

Speed V = 33,285.92 Km/Hr

Now

ac = V²/r = (33,285.92 Km/hrs)² / 3.56 × 10⁶ km

ac = 311.2 Km/hr²

A construction worker is carrying a load of 40 kg over his head and is walking at a constant velocity if he travels a distance o
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

W = 0

Explanation:

We are given with, a construction worker is carrying a load of 40 kg over his head and is walking at a constant velocity. He travels a distance of 50 m.

The work done by an object is given by :

W=Fd

F = ma

So,

W=mad

m is mass

a is acceleration

d is displacement

The worker is moving with constant velocity, its acceleration will be 0. So, the work done by the worker is 0.
