Answer:

<em>We need to (at least) apply a force of 9.8 N to move the block</em>

Explanation:

<u>Second Newton's Law</u>

If a net force F_n different from zero is applied to an object of mass m, then it will move at an acceleration a, given by

F_n=ma

If we apply a force F to an object placed on a rough surface, the only way to make it move is to beat the friction force  which is given by

F_r=\mu F_N

Where \mu is the static friction coefficient and F_N is the normal force exerted by the table to the object. Since there is no motion in the vertical direction the normal force equals the weight of the object:

F_N=mg=5\ kg\ 9.8\ m/s^2=49\ N

The friction force is

F_r=0.2 (49)=9.8\ N

Thus, we need to (at least) apply a force of 9.8 N to move the block

What is difference between non uniform and uniform circular motion?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The object in a uniform motion covers same distances in an equal time period. Objects in a non-uniform motion cover dissimilar distances in an equal time period.

Explanation:

The speed of the object traveling in uniform motion is constant, the actual speed and the average speed of the moving body is same.

Which of the following represents the velocity of an object?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:Velocity can be represented by an arrow, with the length of the arrow representing speed and the way the arrow points representing direction. Objects have the same velocity only if they are moving at the same speed and in the same direction. ... The SI unit for velocity is m/s, plus the direction the object is traveling.

On a 100km track , a train travels the first 30km with a speed of 30km/h . How fast the train travel the next 70 km if the avera
nirvana33 [79]

Solution :-

Given :

Distance 1 = 30 km

Distance 2 = 70 km

We know that speed = distance/time

and, Average speed = total distance/total time taken

When the train acquired a speed of 30 km/hr, the time taken = 30/30 = 1 hour

Average speed = 9distance 1 + distance 2)/(time 1 + time 2)

AS time 2 or t2 is time taken for the second part of the journey of 70 km

⇒ 40 = 100/(1 + t2)

⇒ 40 + 40t2 = 100

⇒ 40t2 = 100 - 40

⇒ 40t2 = 60

⇒ t2 = 60/40

⇒ t2 = 1.5

So, t2 or time taken to travel the second part of the journey is 1.5 hours.

Speed of the second part of the journey = distance 2/time 2

⇒ 70/1.5

⇒ 46.666 km/hr or 46.7 km/hr.

Hence the answer is = 46.666 km/hr or 46.7 km/hr.
