The direction of the force of static friction is along the plane of contact, and is opposite to the direction in which there would be relative motion if there was no friction (for example, if one of the surfaces suddenly turned to ice). Hope this helped!

A wheel of radius R, mass M, and moment of inertia I is mounted on a frictionless, horizontal axles. A light cord wrapped around
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

\alpha =\frac{m*g*R}{I-m*R^2}

a = \frac{m*g*R^2}{I-m*R^2}

T=\frac{I*m*g}{I-m*R^2}

Explanation:

By analyzing the torque on the wheel we get:

T*R=I*\alpha    Solving for T:   T=I/R*\alpha

On the object:

T-m*g = -m*a    Replacing our previous value for T:

I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*a

The relation between angular and linear acceleration is:

a=\alpha*R

So,

I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*\alpha*R

Solving for α:

\alpha =\frac{R*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

The linear acceleration will be:

a =\frac{R^2*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

And finally, the tension will be:

T =\frac{I*m*g}{I+m*R^2}

These are the values of all the variables: α, a, T

The magnetic flux through a loop:
dexar [7]

Answer:

The magnetic flux through a loop is zero when the B field is perpendicular to the plane of the loop.

Explanation:

Magnetic flux are also known as the magnetic line of force surrounding a bar magnetic in a magnetic field.

It is expressed mathematically as

Φ = B A cos(θ) where

Φ is the magnetic flux

B is the magnetic field strength

A is the area

θ is the angle that the magnetic field make with the plane of the loop

If B is acting perpendicular to the plane of the loop, this means that θ = 90°

Magnetic flux Φ = BA cos90°

Since cos90° = 0

Φ = BA ×0

Φ = 0

This shows that the magnetic flux is zero when the magnetic field strength B is perpendicular to the plane of the loop.
