What's something that I've done in my life that is related to physics

1 answer:

6 0

That's a very difficult question to answer, because you give us
no information regarding what you have done in your life.

We can only assume that you have most likely breathed on occasion,
floated on your back in the ocean, lake or pool, maybe fallen off of a
ladder or out of bed, felt the warmth of the sun on your cheek, seen
a rainbow after a rainshower, heard the sound of thunder during a
summer storm, taken a trip in an airplane, and waited for a cup of
hot chocolate to cool off. The richness of any of these experiences
is greatly enhanced when you understand some of the Physics involved.

8) Find the X and Y component of 10degree vector that has 5N.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Fx = 4.92 [N]

Fy = 0.868 [N]

Explanation:

Let's take the 10 degrees as a measure from the horizontal component to the vector.

Thus taking the components in the X & y axes respectively:

Fx = 5*cos(10) = 4.92 [N]

Fy = 5*sin(10) = 0.868 [N]

Which of these surfaces would have the least amount of friction?

lozanna [386]

Answer:

D. Satin Cloth

Explanation:

i thought it said glass, not grass lol

satin it the smoothest surface and therefore the least amount of friction.

19) A child on a sled starts from rest at the top of a 15.0° slope. If the trip to the bottom takes 15.2 s,

sveticcg [70]

Answer: 288.8 m

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$t=15.2 s$ is the time it takes to the child to reach the bottom of the slope

$V_{o}=0$ is the initial velocity (the child started from rest)

$\theta=15\°$ is the angle of the slope

$d$ is the length of the slope

Now, the Force exerted on the sled along the ramp is:

$F=ma$ (1)

Where $m$ is the mass of the sled and $a$ its acceleration

In addition, if we draw a free body diagram of this sled, the force along the ramp will be:

$F=mg sin \theta$ (2)

Where $g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Then:

$ma=mg sin \theta$ (3)

Finding $a$ :

$a=g sin \theta$ (4)

$a=9.8 m/s^{2} sin(15\°)$ (5)

$a=2.5 m/s^{2}$ (6)

Now, we will use the following kinematic equations to find $d$ :

$V=V_{o}+at$ (7)

$V^{2}=V_{o}^{2}+2ad$ (8)

Where $V$ is the final velocity

Finding $V$ from (7):

$V=at=(2.5 m/s^{2})(15.2 s)$ (9)

$V=38 m/s$ (10)

Substituting (10) in (8):

$(38 m/s)^{2}=2(2.5 m/s^{2})d$ (11)

Finding $d$ :

$d=288.8 m$

A hydraulic lift has two connected pistons with cross-sectional areas 15 cm2 and 670 cm2. It is filled with oil of density 510 k

BigorU [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Cross-sectional area of two areas is

$A_1=15\ cm^2$

$A_2=670\ cm^2$

It is filled with oil of density $\rho _0=510\ kg/m^3$

mass of car place on Large area $M=1100\ kg$

Suppose a mass of m kg is placed on smaller area

According to pascal law's intensity of pressure is same at every point on Liquid

$P_1=P_2$

$\frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}$

$\frac{mg}{15}=\frac{Mg}{670}$

$m=1100\times \frac{15}{670}$

$m=24.62\ kg$
