Answer:

<h2>Frictional force</h2>

Explanation:

For the block placed on the table, there are several force acting on the body along the horizontal and vertical axis. All this forces tends to keep the body in a state of equilibrium.The forces acting along the horizontal are the moving force (Fm) and the frictional force (Ff).

Frictional force are forces that acts opposite to the force that causes the body to move (moving force).

If Lien uses a spring scale to pull a block toward the right across the lab table and the scale reads 8 N, this means that the force that causes the body to move is the 8N force (moving force).

Taking the sum of force along the horizontal;

\sum fx = ma_x

Since the body is static, max = 0

\sum fx = 0\\fm+(-Ff)= 0

Note that the frictional force acts is the force of opposition acting in the negative x direction.

fm = 0+Ff\\fm = Ff

Since Fm = 8N, Ff will also be equal to 8N.

Based on the above proof, Lien can also conclude that 8 N is a frictional force

Based on the information in the table, which two elements are most likely in the same group, and why?
velikii [3]

Answer: bismuth and nitrogen, because they have the same number of valence electrons

Explanation:

Elements are distributed in groups and periods in a periodic table.

Elements that belong to same groups will show similar chemical properties because they have same number of valence electrons.

The number of valence electrons in Bismuth and nitrogen are 5 and thus thus they will show similar chemical properties and thus belong to the same group.

The atomic masses of elements in a group will differ drastically.

The group number has got nothing to be the isolation year.

Thus bismuth and nitrogen belong to same group because they have the same number of valence electrons

At an altitude of 5000 m the rocket's acceleration has increased to 6.9 m/s2 . What mass of fuel has it burned?
sergey [27]

1) Initial upward acceleration: 6.0 m/s^2

2) Mass of burned fuel: 0.10\cdot 10^4 kg

Explanation:

1)

There are two forces acting on the rocket at the beginning:

- The force of gravity, of magnitude F_g = mg, in the downward direction, where

m=1.9\cdot 10^4 kg is the rocket's mass

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

- The thrust of the motor, T, in the upward direction, of magnitude

T=3.0\cdot 10^5 N

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on the rocket must be equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration, so we can write:

T-mg=ma (1)

where a is the acceleration of the rocket.

Solving for a, we find the initial acceleration:

a=\frac{T-mg}{m}=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^5-(1.9\cdot 10^4)(9.8)}{1.9\cdot 10^4}=6.0 m/s^2

2)

When the rocket reaches an altitude of 5000 m, its acceleration has increased to

a'=6.9 m/s^2

The reason for this increase is that the mass of the rocket has decreased, because the rocket has burned some fuel.

We can therefore rewrite eq.(1) as

T-m'g=m'a'

where

m' is the new mass of the rocket

Re-arranging the equation and solving for m', we find

m'=\frac{T}{g+a}=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^5}{9.8+6.9}=1.8\cdot 10^4 kg

And since the initial mass of the rocket was

m=1.9 \cdot 10^4 kg

This means that the mass of fuel burned is

\Delta m = m-m'=1.9\cdot 10^4 - 1.80\cdot 10^4 = 0.10\cdot 10^4 kg

The height of a typical playground slide is about 1.8 m and it rises at an angle of 30 ∘ above the horizontal.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

5.94\ \text{m/s}

1.7

0.577

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

\theta = Angle of slope = 30^{\circ}

v = Velocity of child at the bottom of the slide

\mu_k = Coefficient of kinetic friction

\mu_s = Coefficient of static friction

h = Height of slope = 1.8 m

The energy balance of the system is given by

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.8}\\\Rightarrow v=5.94\ \text{m/s}

The speed of the child at the bottom of the slide is 5.94\ \text{m/s}

Length of the slide is given by

l=h\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow l=1.8\sin30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow l=0.9\ \text{m}

v=\dfrac{1}{2}\times5.94\\\Rightarrow v=2.97\ \text{m/s}

The force energy balance of the system is given by

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\mu_kmg\cos\theta l\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=\dfrac{gh-\dfrac{1}{2}v^2}{gl\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=\dfrac{9.81\times 1.8-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.97^2}{9.81\times 0.9\cos30^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=1.73

The coefficient of kinetic friction is 1.7.

For static friction

\mu_s\geq\tan30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s\geq0.577

So, the minimum possible value for the coefficient of static friction is 0.577.

A uniformly charged solid disk of radius R = 0.45 m carries a uniform charge density of σ = 175 μC/m². A point P is located a di
siniylev [52]

Answer:

1408.685 KN/C

Explanation:

Given:

R = 0.45 m

σ = 175 μC/m²

P is located a distance a = 0.75 m

k = 8.99*10^9

  • The Electric Field Strength E of a uniformly solid disk of charge at distance a perpendicular to disk is given by:

                                  E = 2*pi*k*o * (1 - \frac{a}{\sqrt{a^2 + R^2} })\\

part a)

Electric Field strength at point P: a = 0.75 m

E = 2*pi*8.99*10^9*175*10^-6 * (1 - \frac{0.75}{\sqrt{0.75^2 + 0.45^2} })\\\\E = 9885021.285*(0.1425070743)\\\\E = 1408.685 KN/C

part b)

Since, R >> a, we can approximate a / R = 0 ,

Hence, E simplified relation becomes:

E = 2*pi*k*o * (1 - \frac{a/R}{\sqrt{a^2/R^2 + 1} })\\\\E = 2*pi*k*o * (1 - \frac{0}{\sqrt{0 + 1} })\\\\E = 2*pi*k*o

E = σ / 2*e_o

part c)

Since, a >> R, we can approximate. that the uniform disc of charge becomes a single point charge:

Electric Field strength due to point charge is:

E = k*δ*pi*R^2 / a^2  

Since, R << a, Surface area = δ*pi

Hence,

E = (k*δ*pi/a^2)
