A 0.413 kg block requires 1.09 N

Physics

1 answer:

Virty [35]2 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The equation for this is

f = μ $F_n$ where f is the frictional force the block needs to overcome, μ is the coefficient of static friction, and $F_n = w=mg$ (that means that the normal force is the same as the weight of the block which has an equation of weight = mass times the pull of gravity). Filling in:

1.09 = μ(.413)(9.8) and

μ = $\frac{1.09}{(.413)(9.8)}$ so

μ = .27

Flura [38]

The presence of helium gas indicates the radioactive sample is most likely decaying by α-decay, or alpha decay. α-decay is the type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits α particles. α particles are Helium nuclei. So the correct answer would be α-decay.

(a) A load of coal is dropped (straight down) from a bunker into a railroad hopper car of inertia 3.0 × 104 kg coasting at 0.50

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

a) m=20000Kg

b) v=0.214m/s

Explanation:

We will separate the problem in 3 parts, part A when there were no coals on the car, part B when there is 1 coal on the car and part C when there are 2 coals on the car. Inertia is the mass in this case.

For each part, and since the coals are thrown vertically, the horizontal linear momentum p=mv must be conserved, that is, $p=m_Av_A=m_Bv_B=m_Cv_C$ , were each velocity refers to the one of the car (with the eventual coals on it) for each part, and each mass the mass of the car (with the eventual coals on it) also for each part. We will write the mass of the hopper car as $m_h$ , and the mass of the first and second coals as $m_1$ and $m_2$ respectively

We start with the transition between parts A and B, so we have:

$m_Av_A=m_Bv_B$

Which means

$m_hv_A=(m_h+m_1)v_B$

And since we want the mass of the first coal thrown ( $m_1$ ) we do:

$m_hv_A=m_hv_B+m_1v_B$

$m_hv_A-m_hv_B=m_1v_B$

$m_1=\frac{m_hv_A-m_hv_B}{v_B}=\frac{m_h(v_A-v_B)}{v_B}$

Substituting values we obtain

$m_1=\frac{(3\times10^4Kg)(0.5m/s-0.3m/s)}{0.3m/s}=20000Kg=2\times10^4Kg$

For the transition between parts B and C, we can write:

$m_Bv_B=m_Cv_C$

Which means

$(m_h+m_1)v_B=(m_h+m_1+m_2)v_C$

Since we want the new final speed of the car ( $v_C$ ) we do:

$v_C=\frac{(m_h+m_1)v_B}{(m_h+m_1+m_2)}$

Substituting values we obtain

$v_C=\frac{(3\times10^4Kg+2\times10^4Kg)(0.3m/s)}{(3\times10^4Kg+2\times10^4Kg+2\times10^4Kg)}=0.214m/s$

Why should you choose why should you choose wire with a thinner insulation?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Because of the given stranded wires is that it's thinner there are even more air gaps and a greater surface area in the individual stranded wires then therefore it carries less current than similar solid wires can with each type of wire , insulations technologies can greatly assist in reducing power dissipation.
