To determine the coefficient of static friction between two materials, an engineer places a small sample of one material on a ho

rizontal disk whose surface is made of the other material and then rotates the disk from rest with a constant angular acceleration of 0.4 rad/s2. If she determines that the small sample slips on the disk after 9.903 s, what is the coefficient of friction

This question is incomplete, the missing image is uploaded along this answer.

Answer:

the coefficient of friction is 0.32

Explanation:

 Given the data in the question;

we make use of kinematic equation of motion;

ω = ω₀ + ∝t

we substitute

ω = ( 0 rad/s ) + ( 0.4 rad/s² )( 9.903 s )

ω = 3.9612 rad/s

The centripetal force acting on the sample is;

Fc = mrω²

from the image; r = 200 mm = 0.2 m

so we substitute

Fc = m(0.2 m ) ( 3.9612 rad/s )²

Fc = (3.13822 m/s²)m

we know that the frictional force between the two materials should be providing the necessary centripetal force to rotate the sample object;

f = Fc

μN = Fc

μmg = (3.13822 m/s²)m

μ = (3.13822 m/s²)m / mg

μ = (3.13822 m/s²) / g

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s²

so

μ = (3.13822 m/s²) / 9.8 m/s²

μ = 0.32

Therefore, the coefficient of friction is 0.32

As viewed from above in this picture, what direction will the current be in the coil of wire that will cause the loop to rotate
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

When viewed from above, the current in the coil should point towards the top-right corner of the picture.

Explanation:

The current in this coil have only two possible directions: clockwise or counter-clockwise. However, since the diagram shows the coil from above, not from a cross-section, just saying clockwise or counter-clockwise might be ambiguous. The statement that the current is directed towards the top-right corner of the picture is equivalent to saying that when viewed from the lower-right corner of this diagram, the current in the coil is moving clockwise.

Note that at the center of this picture, the current is parallel to the magnetic field- there will be no force on the coil at that position. On the other hand, (also when viewed from above,) at the top-right corner and the lower-left corner of the coil, the current in the coil will be perpendicular to the magnetic field. That's where the force on the coil will be the strongest.

With that in mind, apply the right-hand rule to find the direction of the force on the coil in each of the two possibilities.

Assume that when viewed from above, the current is flowing towards the top-right corner of the picture. Consider the wire near the top-right corner of this coil (as viewed above on this picture.) The current will be going into the picture into the magnetic field. By the right-hand rule, the current on the wire near that point should be pointing towards the bottom of this picture. (Point fingers on the right hand in the direction of the current I. Rotate the right hand such that when curling the fingers, they point in the direction of the magnetic field B. The direction of the right thumb should now point in the direction of the force on the wire F.)

Based on the same assumption, the current in the wires near the bottom left corner of this coil will be pointing out of the picture. By the right hand rule, the magnetic force on the coil in that region should be pointing towards the top of this picture. Combing these two forces, the coil would indeed be rotating around the center of this picture in the direction shown in the diagram.

It can also be shown that if the current points towards the bottom left corner of the picture when viewed from above, the coil will be rotating about the center of this picture in the opposite direction.

Prove the three laws of motion​
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The first law, also called the law of inertia, was pioneered by Galileo. This was quite a conceptual leap because it was not possible in Galileo's time to observe a moving object without at least some frictional forces dragging against the motion. In fact, for over a thousand years before Galileo, educated individuals believed Aristotle's formulation that, wherever there is motion, there is an external force producing that motion.

The second law, $ f(t)=m\,a(t)$ , actually implies the first law, since when $ f(t)=0$ (no applied force), the acceleration $ a(t)$ is zero, implying a constant velocity $ v(t)$ . (The velocity is simply the integral with respect to time of $ a(t)={\dot v}(t)$ .)

Newton's third law implies conservation of momentum [138]. It can also be seen as following from the second law: When one object ``pushes'' a second object at some (massless) point of contact using an applied force, there must be an equal and opposite force from the second object that cancels the applied force. Otherwise, there would be a nonzero net force on a massless point which, by the second law, would accelerate the point of contact by an infinite amount.

determine the force of gravitational attraction between a 78kg boy sitting 2 meters away from a 65kg girl.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

F=8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a boy is 78 kg

Mass of a girl is 65 kg

We need to find the force of gravitational attraction between them if they are 2 m away.

The formula for the gravitational force is given by :

F=\dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 78\times 65}{(2)^2}\\\\=8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N

So, the force between them is 8.45\times 10^{-8}\ N.
