Explain why does the bowling ball decelerate as it travels along the lane

1 answer:

5 0

The main cause of this is Friction. The more oil that is laid down, the less friction there is between the ball and the lane surface. The less friction, the harder it is for the bowler to send the ball in a curved path imparted by the spin that the bowler puts on the ball at the instant of release.

Suppose that a steel bridge, 1000 m long, were built without any expansion joints. Suppose that only one end of the bridge was h

Stels [109]

Answer:

The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 1000 m

Winter temperature = 0°C

Summer temperature = 40°C

Coefficient of thermal expansion $\alpha= 10.5\times10^{-6}\ K^{-1}$

We need to calculate the difference in the length of the bridge

Using formula of the difference in the length

$\Delta L=L\alpha\Delta T$

Where, $\Delta T$ = temperature difference

$\alpha$ =Coefficient of thermal expansion

L= length

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta L=1000\times10.5\times10^{-6}(40^{\circ}-0^{\circ})$

$\Delta L=0.42\ m$

Hence, The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.

According to ____, the ability to detect a stimulus depends not only on the intensity of the stimulus but also on other variable

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Signal detection theory

Explanation:

Signal detection theory states that stimulus ca be detected according to its intensity and a person's psychological and/or physical state. This means that we can notice things according to how strong they are but also, a person's characteristics like experience and physiological state like fatigue can affect the ability to detect them.

Because of this, the answer is that according to signal detection theory, the ability to detect a stimulus depends not only on the intensity of the stimulus but also on other variables such as the level of noise in the system and your expectations.

Coulomb measured the deflection of sphere A when spheres A and B had equal charges and were a distance d apart. He then made the

sdas [7]

Answer:

The new distance is d = 0.447 d₀

Explanation:

The electric out is given by Coulomb's Law

F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

This electric force is in balance with tension.

We reduce the charge of sphere B to 1/5 of its initial value ( $q_{B}$ =q₂ = q₂ / 5) than new distance (d = n d₀)

dat

q₁ = $q_{A}$

q₂ = $q_{B}$

r = d₀

In order for the deviation to maintain the electric force it should not change, so we apply the Coulomb equation for the two points

F = k q₁ q₂ / d₀²

F = k q₁ (q₂ / 5) / (n d₀)²

.k q₁ q₂ / d₀² = q₁ q₂ / (5 n² d₀²)

5 n² = 1

n = √ 1/5

n = 0.447

The new distance is

d = 0.447 d₀
