A student places an object with a mass of m on a disk at a position r from the center of the disk. The student starts rotating t

he disk. When the disk reaches a speed of 0.8 m/s, the object starts to slide off the disk. What is the coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk?

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk is 0.087.

Explanation:

According to the statement, the object on the disk experiments a centrifugal force due to static friction. From 2nd Newton's Law, we can represent the object by the following formula:

\Sigma F_{r} = \mu_{s}\cdot N = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R} (1)

\Sigma F_{y} = N - m\cdot g = 0 (2)

Where:

N - Normal force from the ground on the object, measured in newtons.

m - Mass of the object, measured in newtons.

g - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

v - Linear speed of rotation of the disk, measured in meters per second.

R - Distance of the object from the center of the disk, measured in meters.

By applying (2) on (1), we obtain the following formula:

\mu_{s}\cdot m\cdot g = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

\mu_{s} = \frac{v^{2}}{g\cdot R}

If we know that v = 0.8\,\frac{m}{s}, g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and R = 0.75\,m, then the coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk is:

\mu_{s} = \frac{\left(0.8\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}{\left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.75\,m)}

\mu_{s} = 0.087

The coefficient of static friction between the object and the disk is 0.087.

What have psychologists learned about perception from optical illusions ?
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

That an optical illusion somehow interferes with the way we see things. Even simple illusions can completely fool us. If you search out the term, you'll see all kinds of them.

Most critically we see one thing and know another to be true. But knowing the truth doesn't help us. We still see and believe the truth of the illusion.

PLEASEE HELPP
topjm [15]

Explanation:

u=166m/s, v=0(at it's highest point final velocity is zero), a=9.8m/s², t=8.6s

by the formula, S=ut+½at².

S=[166×8.6+½.×9.8×(8.6)²]. ...by calculation

S = 1427.6+362.404

S=1790.004m

hope this helps you.
