You can tell a lot about an object that's not moving,
and also a lot about the forces acting on it:
==> If the box is at rest on the table, then it is not accelerating.
==> Since it is not accelerating, I can say that the forces on it are balanced.
==> That means that the sum of all forces acting on the box is zero,
and the effect of all the forces acting on it is the same as if there were
no forces acting on it at all.
==> This in turn means that all of the horizontal forces are balanced,
AND all of the vertical forces are balanced.
Horizontal forces:
sliding friction, somebody pushing the box
All of the forces on this list must add up to zero. So ...
(sliding friction force) = (pushing force), in the opposite direction.
If nobody pushing the box, then sliding friction force = zero.
Vertical forces:
gravitational force (weight of the box, pulling it down)
normal force (table pushing the box up)
All of the forces on this list must add up to zero, so ...
(Gravitational force down) + (normal force up) = zero
(Gravitational force down) = -(normal force up) .
Answer:
The ladder is 3.014 m tall.
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we must use the following formula:
v = x/t
where v represents the woman’s velocity, x represents the distance she climbed (the height of the ladder), and t represents the time it took her to move this distance
If we plug in the values we are given for the problem, we get:
v = x/t
2.20 = x/1.37
To solve this equation for x (the height of the ladder), we must multiply both sides by 1.37. If we do this, we get:
x = (2.20 * 1.37)
x = 3.014 m
Therefore, the ladder is 3.014 m tall.
Hope this helps!
<span>Its the impact theory.
It suggests that the moon resulted from the collision of two protoplanets, or embryonic worlds. One of those was the just-forming Earth, and the other was a Mars-size object called Theia. The moon then coalesced from the debris, thus giving it its irregular shape.</span>
Answer:
10.4 m/s
Explanation:
The problem can be solved by using the following SUVAT equation:
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
t is the time
For the diver in the problem, we have:
is the initial velocity (positive because it is upward)
is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)
By substituting t = 1.7 s, we find the velocity when the diver reaches the water:
And the negative sign means that the direction is downward: so, the speed is 10.4 m/s.
