Answer:

Equal to the frictional force

Explanation:

Question; The options given with regards to a similar question posted online are;

A. Equal (equivalent) to the frictional force

B. Larger than the frictional force

C. Equal to the object's weight

D. More than the object's weight

Explanation

According to Newton's first law of motion, every object shall remain at rest or continue moving with uniform (constant speed) motion unless there is a net force acting on the object

Given that the velocity of the massive block, lying on the surface that has friction, being pulled by the rope = Constant

Therefore;

The net force acting on the moving block while being pulled by the rope = 0

From which we have;

The pulling force = The resistive force

Where;

The pulling force = The (pulling) force (applied) on the rope

The resistive force = The frictional force of the surface which tends to prevent the motion of the block

Therefore, given that the net force acting on the block = 0

The force on the rope = The frictional force (of the surface)

The correct option is option A. Equal to the frictional force.

Answer:

Maximum linear charge density = 84.14 nC/m

Explanation:

Looking at this question, The electric field of a line charge of infinite length is given by : Er = (1/(2πεo)) x (λ/r)

r = the distance from the center of the line of charge

λ = the linear charge density of the wire.

Now looking at the equatiom, due to the fact that Er varies inveresely with r, its maximum value will occur at the surface of the wire where r = R, the radius of the wire:

And so, Emax = (1/(2πεo)) x (λ/R)

Let's make λ the subject of the equation and we get;

λ = 2πεo(REmax)

From the question, R = 0.55/2 = 0.275cm

Also, Emax = 5.50 × 10^(6) N/C

Let's take the value of the electric constant to be εo = 8.854 x 10^(-9) C^(2) / Nm^2

R = 0.275mm = 0.000275m

Plugging these values into the equation, we get;

λ = 2π x 8.854 x 10^(-12) x 0.000275 x 5.50 × 10^(6) = 84.14 nC/m

A 75-g bullet is fired from a rifle having a barrel 0.540 m long. choose the origin to be at the location where the bullet begin

lyudmila [28]

Part a) The work done by the gas on the bullet is the integral of the force in dx, where x is the distance covered by the bullet inside the barrel with respect to the origin:
$W= \int\limits^{0.540m}_{0} {F} \, dx = \int\limits^{0.540m}_{0} {(16000+10000x-26000x^2)} \, dx =$
$=16000x+10000 \frac{x^2}{2} - 26000 \frac{x^3}{3}$
By substituting the length of the barrel, L=0.540 m, we find the total work done by the gas on the bullet:
$W=16000(0.540m)+10000 \frac{(0.540m)^2}{2} - 26000 \frac{(0.540m)^3}{3} =$
$=8733 J=8.73 kJ$

part b) The resolution of the problem is the same, we just have to use the new length of the barrel (L=0.95 m) inside the final formula, and we find the new value of the work:
$W=16000(0.95m)+10000 \frac{(0.95m)^2}{2} - 26000 \frac{(0.95m)^3}{3} =$
$=12280 J=12.28 kJ$

Help! PROJECTILE PROBLEM: A 7500-kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.25

dsp73

Here,

height at failure, h1 = 525 m,
upward acceleration, a = 2.25 m/s^2,
velocity = v m/s,

SO, 

v^2 = 2*a*h = 2*2.25*525 = 2362.5 
Now, acceleration, g = 9.8 m/s^2,

SO, 

heigt, h1 = v^2/2g = 2362.5 / 2*9.8 = 120.54 meters 
Hence,

a) 
Total height = 525+120.54 = 645.54 meters

b)
time, for h1, t = v/g = sqrt(2362.5)/9.8 = 4.96 sec

How does the color of water affect its evaporation rate

olga_2 [115]

Well my thinking is that the lighter the slower the water evaporates or the darker the faster becuase dark colors absorb light and allows a lot of heat to be generated or not at all.
