1). Walking / Driving

If there were no static friction between the soles of your shoes and the ground, then you could move your feet back and forth but your body would never go anywhere.

Same for using tires to move a car, a bus, a bicycle or a motorcycle.

2). Sleeping

If there were no static friction between your jammies and the sheet, you would slide right off of the bed whenever there was the slightest breeze of air in the room.

A merry-go-round rotates at the rate of 0.17 rev/s with an 79 kg man standing at a point 1.6 m from the axis of rotation.

Hi there!

We can use the conservation of angular momentum to solve.

$L_i = L_f\\\\I\omega_i = I\omega_f$

I = moment of inertia (kgm²)

ω = angular velocity (rad/sec)

Recall the following equations for the moment of inertia.

$\text{Solid cylinder:} I = \frac{1}{2}MR^2\\\\\text{Object around center:} = MR^2$

Begin by converting rev/sec to rad sec:

$\frac{0.17rev}{s} * \frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev} = 1.068 \frac{rad}{s}$

According to the above and the given information, we can write an equation and solve for ωf.

$1.068(\frac{1}{2}(34)(1.6)^2 + (79)(1.6)^2) = \omega_f(\frac{1}{2}(34)(1.6^2) + 79(0^2))\\\\\omega_f = \boxed{6.03 \frac{rad}{sec}}$

The tired of a car support the weight of a stationary. If onetire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will_____wit

Westkost [7]

Answer:

d) Decrease, increase, remain constant

Explanation:

If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will_DECREASE____with time due to outflow of air , the surface area between the tire and the road will__INCREASE__in time,due to flattening of tire.

The net force the tire exerts on the road will_REMAIN CONSTANT____in time. It is so because force does not depend upon area. It is pressure which depends upon area. As there is no change in the weight of the car , force on the road will remain constant.

An insect 5.00 mm tall is placed 20.0 cm to the left of a thin planoconvex lens. The left surface of this lens is flat, the righ

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

a) i = -9.63 cm , h ’= .0.24075 cm erect

b) i = 259.74 cm ,

Explanation:

For this exercise let's start by finding the focal length of the lens

1 / f = (n-1) (1 / R₁ - 1 / R₂)

1 / f = (1.70 -1)) 1 / ∞ - 1/13)

1 / f = 0.0538

f = - 18.57 cm

Now we can use the constructor equation

1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i

1 / i = 1 / f - 1 / o

1 / i = -1 / 18.57 -1/20

1 / i = -0.1038 cm

I = -9.63 cm

For the height of the

image let's use magnification

m = h '/ h = - i / o

h ’= -h i / o

h ’= - 0.5 (-9.63) / 20

h ’= .0.24075 cm

b) we invert the lens

The focal length is

1 / f = (1.70 -1) (1/13 - 1 / int)

1 / f = 0.0538

f = 18.57 cm

1 / i = 1 / f -1 / o

1 / I = 1 / 18.57 - 1/20

1 / I = 3.85 10-3

i = 259.74 cm

h ’= - 0.5 259.74 / 20

h ’= 6.4935 cm

What would happen if you tried to use a prism to disperse a beam that contained only green light？

Margaret [11]

It is determined by the nature of the green light. Because lasers create light at almost a single frequency, green laser light would appear as a thin line of pure green. Other sources of "green" light emit light at a variety of frequencies, including yellow and blue, resulting in a strong green band in the center that fades into blue-green and yellow-green at the borders.

For example, here’s a graph of the spectrum of a green LED, showing the color range: Attachment #1

and here’s a graph of the transmission spectra of several standard photographic filters, including green: Attachment #2
