A physics major is cooking breakfast when he notices that the frictional force between the steel spatula and the Teflon frying p

an is only 0.150 N. Knowing the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two materials (0.04), he quickly calculates the normal force. What is it (in N)

Answer:

f_n=3.75N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frictional force F=0.150N

Coefficient of kinetic friction \mu=0.04

Generally the equation for Normal for is mathematically given by

 f_n=\frac{F}{\mu}

Therefore

 f_n=\frac{0.150}{0.04}

 f_n=3.75N

At a location near the equator, the earth’s magnetic field is horizontal and points north. An electron is moving vertically upwa
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

(b) EAST

Explanation:

you can assume that the magnetic field points rightward, that is, in the positive x direction (NORTH). Furthermore, you can assume that the direction of the motion of the electron is in the positive y direction. Hence, you have:

\vec{B}=B_o\hat{i}\\\\\vec{v}=v_o\hat{j}

You use the Lorentz formula to known which is the direction of the magnetic force over the electron:

F=qv\ X\ B

which implies the cross product between the unitary vecors j and i, that is

\hat{i} \ X\ \hat{j} = -\hat{k}  (WEST)

However, the minus sign of the charge of the electron changes the direction 180°. Hence, the direction is k. That is, to the EAST

A 5.0 kg chunk of putty moving at 10m/s collides and sticks to a 7.0 kg bowling ball that is initially at rest.What is the total
Flura [38]

Answer:

Total momentum = 50kgm/s

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass, M1 = 5kg

Mass, M2 = 7kg

Velocity, V1 = 10m/s

Velocity, V2 = 0m/s (since it's at rest).

To find the total momentum;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = Mass * Velocity

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total linear momentum of any closed system would always remain constant with respect to time.

Total momentum = M1V1 + M2V2

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Total momentum = 5*10 + 7*0

Total momentum = 50 + 0

<em>Total momentum = 50 kgm/s</em>

<em>Therefore, the total momentum of the bowling ball and the putty after they collide is 50 kgm/s. </em>

Two identical satellites orbit the earth in stable orbits. Onesatellite orbits with a speed vat a distance rfrom the center of t
Lelu [443]

Answer:

c) At a distance greater than r

Explanation:

If G= Gravitational constant

M= Mass of earth

r= distance from earth center

then orbital speed is ;

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r} }

==> v²=GM/r

If speed of first satellite = V₁

==> V₁² = GM/r

==> r = GM/V₁²

If speed of second satellite say V₂ is less than V₁ then square of V₂ will be less than square of V₁ , and hence GM will be divided by less number in case of second satellite, and hence will give greater value of r as compared to first satellite.

So our answer is c

A 23.9 g sample of iridium is heated to 89.7 oC, and then dropped into 20.0 g of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter. The temperat
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of iridium = 0.130 J/g°C

Explanation:

Assuming no heat losses to the environment and to the calorimeter,

Heat lost by the iridium sample = Heat gained by water

Heat lost by the iridium sample = mC ΔT

m = mass of iridium = 23.9 g

C = specific heat capacity of the iridium = ?

ΔT = change in temperature of the iridium = 89.7 - 22.6 = 67.1°C

Heat lost by the iridium sample = (23.9)(C)(67.1) = (1603.69 C) J

Heat gained by water = mC ΔT

m = mass of water = 20.0 g

C = 4.18 J/g°C

ΔT = 22.6 - 20.1 = 2.5°C

Heat gained by water = 20 × 4.18 × 2.5 = 209 J

Heat lost by the iridium sample = Heat gained by water

1603.69C = 209

C = (209/1603.69) = 0.130 J/g°C
