Answer: left side

Explanation:

Given

Block of wood is pushed to the right

As friction always resist the motion, it must be acting towards the left side to stop the block

What is the device used to detect and measure current?

dybincka [34]

The Ammeter is used to detect and measure current or amperage. Also a more common tool now used is a multimeter that detects and measures voltage, current, and resistance.

Any questions please just ask. Thank you.

Two flywheels of negligible mass and different radii are bonded together and rotate about a common axis (see below). The smaller

jekas [21]

Answer:

$F_2 = 29.54 N$

Explanation:

As we know that the combination is maintained at rest position

So we will take net torque on the system to be ZERO

so we know that

$\tau = \vec r \times \vec F$

here we will have

$\vec r_1 \times F_1 = \vec r_2 \times F_2$

so we have

$13 \times 50 = 22 \times F_2$

so we have

$F_2 = \frac{13 \times 50}{22}$

$F_2 = 29.54 N$

A green truck is moving to the right. A red truck is moving to the left with a speed of 6 m/s. The mass of the red truck is 1,00

Contact [7]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of red truck = 1000 kg

$m_2$ = Mass of green truck= 3000 kg

$u_1$ = Initial Velocity of red truck = 6 m/s

$u_2$ = Initial Velocity of green truck

$v$ = Velocity with which they move together = 0

For elastic collision

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =0\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =(m_1 + m_2)v\\\Rightarrow m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 =0\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\frac{1000\times 6}{3000}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-2\ m/s$

Velocity of the green truck is 2 m/s

A plane has a takeoff speed of 88.3 m/s and can accelerate at a rate of 3m/s to reach that speed. How long does the plane take t

Mrrafil [7]

v = $\frac{d}{t}$

and

a = $\frac{v}{t}$

We have acceleration and velocity so:

3 = $\frac{v}{t}$

88.3 = $\frac{d}{t}$

In the acceleration equation we can isolate for v and then plug it back into the other equation to solve...

So...

$3t = v$

$88.3 = 3t$

Divide by three and

t = 29.4 s
