Answer:

b) stopping the object

Explanation:

Friction always slows a moving object down. ... Friction can be a useful force because it prevents our shoes slipping on the pavement when we walk and stops car tyres skidding on the road. When you walk, friction is caused between the tread on shoes and the ground. This friction acts to grip the ground and prevent sliding

If the coefficient of kinetic friction between a 22 kg kg crate and the floor is 0.27, what horizontal force is required to move
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

58.27 N

Explanation:

the data we have is:

mass: m=22kg

coefficient of friction: \mu =0.27

and we also know the acceleration of gravity is g=9.81m/s^2

We need to do an analysis of horizontal and vertical forces acting on the object:

-------

Vertically the forces acting on the object:

  • Normal force N (acting up from the object)
  • weight: w=mg (acting down from)

so the sum of forces in the vertical axis "y" are:

F_{y}=N-w\\F_{y}=N-mg

from Newton's second Law we know that F=ma, so:

ma_{y}=N-mg

and since the object is not accelerating in the vertical direction (the movement is only horizontal) a_{y}=0, and:

0=N-mg\\N=mg

-----------

now let's analyze the horizontal forces

  • frictional force: f= \mu N and since N=mg  --> f=\mu mg
  • force to move the object: F

and the two forces just mentioned must be opposite, thus the sum of forces in the "x" axis is:

F=ma_{x}=F-f\\ma_{x}=F-\mu mg

and we are told that the crate moves at a steady speed, thus there is no acceleration: a_{x}=0

and we get:

0=F-\mu mg\\F=\mu mg

substituting known values:

F=(0.27)(22kg)(9.81m/s^2)\\F=58.27N

Charles' law explains which of these phenomena?
Luden [163]
I think the correct answer would be that Charles' law explains why <span>a balloon deflates when the air around it cools. Charles' law is a simplification of the ideal gas law. At constant pressure,  volume and temperature have a direct relationship. Hope this helps.</span>

What is the period of a simple pendulum 47 cm long (a) on the Earth, and ( b) when it is in a freely falling elevator?
Liula [17]

Answer:

a)1.37 s

b)∞ ( Infinite)

Explanation:

Given that

L= 47 cm              ( 1 m =100 cm)

L= 0.47 m

a)

On the earth :

Acceleration due to gravity = g

We know that time period of the simple pendulum given as

T=2\pi\sqrt{ \dfrac{L}{g_{{eff}}}

Here

g_{eff}= g

Now by putting the values

T=2\pi \times\sqrt{ \dfrac{0.47}{9.81}}

T=1.37 s

b)

Free falling elevator :

When elevator is falling freely then

g_{eff}= 0            ( This is case of weightless motion)

Therefore

T=2\pi\sqrt{ \dfrac{L}{0}

T=∞  (Infinite)
