A 21 N block rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the surface and the block ar

Georgia [21]

Answer:

a)15 N

b)12.6 N

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of block (wt)= 21 N

μs = 0.80 and μk = 0.60

We know that

Maximum value of static friction given as

Frs = μs m g = μs .wt

by putting the values

Frs= 0.8 x 21 = 16.8 N

Value of kinetic friction

Frk= μk m g = μk .wt

By putting the values

Frk= 0.6 x 21 = 12.6 N

When T = 15 N

Static friction Frs= 16.8 N

Here the value of static friction is more than tension T .It means that block will not move and the value of friction force will be equal to the tension force.

Friction force = 15 N

When T= 35 N

Here value of tension force is more than maximum value of static friction that is why block will move .We know that when body is in motion then kinetic friction will act on the body.so the value of friction force in this case will be 12.6 N

Friction force = 12.6 N

How can humidity be used to predict if it is going to rain?

postnew [5]

1. Humidity cannot be used to predict rain.
2. I'm pretty sure it's weather but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe like 89% sure.

3. Tempurature doesn't affect humidity.

4. Not sure but I think its the 3rd one

What is the speed of a wave with a frequency of 6 Hz and a wavelength of 12 m? No links

myrzilka [38]

72 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

Frequency ( f ) = 6 Hz

Wavelength ( λ ) = 12 m

To find : -

Speed ( v ) = ?

Formula : -

v = f x λ

= 6 x 12

= 72 m/s

Therefore,

the speed of a wave with a frequency of 6 Hz and a wavelength of 12 m is 72 m/s.

Objects with masses of 135 kg and a 435 kg are separated by 0.500 m. Find the net gravitational force exerted by these objects o

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The net gravitational force on the mass is $1.27\times 10^{-5}$

Explanation:

We have by Newton's law of gravity the force of attraction between masses $m_{1},m_{2}$

$F_{att}=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Applying vales we get

Force of attraction between 135 kg mass and 38 kg mass is

$F_{1}=6.67\times 10^{-11}\frac{135\times 38}{(0.25)^{2}}\\\\F_{1}=5.47\times 10^{-6}N$

Force of attraction between 435 kg mass and 38 kg mass is

$F_{2}=6.67\times 10^{-11}\frac{435\times 38}{(0.25)^{2}}\\\\F_{2}=1.76\times 10^{-5}N$

Thus the net force on mass 38.0 kg is $F_{2}-F_{1}=1.76\times 10^{-5}-5.47\times 10^{-6}\\\\F_{2}-F_{1}=1.27\times 10^{-5}$

Floor lamps usually have a base with large inertia, while the long body and top have much less inertia. Part A If you want to sh

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

When a an object is been rotated its resistance capacity to that rotational force is know as rotational inertia and this mathematically given as

$I = mr^2$

Where m is the mass

r is the rotation radius

For the spinning of the lamp as a baton to work the location of the center of mass of the floor lamp needs to be located

This is more likely to be located closer to base of the lamp as compared to the top, so success of spinning a floor lamp like a baton is highly likely if the lamp is grabbed closer to the base because that is where the position of its center of mass is likely to be.
