Which forces are contact forces give one example of each​

Physics
1 answer:
insens350 [35]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A contact force is any force that requires contact to occur. Contact forces are ubiquitous and are responsible for most visible interactions between macroscopic collections of matter. Pushing a car up a hill or kicking a ball across a room are some of the everyday examples where contact forces are at work.

Elaborate on the reason(s) that matter is said to move even as in a solid state.
Mariulka [41]

<u>Answer:</u>

The matter does not move in solid state but vibrates.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The atoms inside the matter cannot move or shift their positions without any external force but makes some small vibration movements. Generally in solids, the particles are bound by the attractive forces acting in between the atoms inside the matter.

The small vibrations that are happening inside the matter are because of the external factors like temperature. The increase in temperature raises the kinetic energy of the atoms inside and makes them move faster and this results in the vibration of the matter.

A 1.5 kg spherical ball is has a radius of 50 cm is rotating with angular velocity of 12 revolutions per minute. Determine the r
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

K.E = 0.0075 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of the ball = 1.5 kg

radius, r = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Angular speed, ω = 12 rev/min = (12/60) rev/sec = 0.2 rev/sec

Now,

the kinetic energy is given as:

K.E = K.E=\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

where,

I is the moment of inertia = mr²

on substituting the values, we get

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times1.5\times0.5^2\times0.2^2

or

K.E = 0.0075 J

The current in a series circuit is 19.3 A. When an additional 7.40-Ω resistor is inserted in series, the current drops to 13.4 A
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

16.8ohms

Explanation:

According to ohm's law which states that the current passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends.

Mathematically, V = IRt where;

V is the voltage across the circuit

I is the current

R is the effective resistance

For a series connected circuit, same current but different voltage flows through the resistors.

If the initial current in a circuit is 19.3A,

V = 19.3R... (1)

When additional resistance of 7.4-Ω is added and current drops to 13.4A, our voltage in the circuit becomes;

V = 13.4(7.4+R)... (2)

Note that the initial resistance is added to the additional resistance because they are connected in series.

Equating the two value of the voltages i.e equation 1 and 2 to get the resistance in the original circuit we will have;

19.3R = 13.4(7.4+R)

19.3R = 99.16+13.4R

19.3R-13.4R = 99.16

5.9R = 99.16

R= 99.16/5.9

R = 16.8ohms

The resistance in the original circuit will be 16.8ohms

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km fr
mestny [16]

An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black hole at a distance of 120 km from its center. The black hole is 5.00 times the mass of the sun and has a Schwarzschild radius of 15.0 km. The astronaut is positioned inside the spaceship such that one of her 0.030 kg ears is 6.0 cm farther from the black hole than the center of mass of the spacecraft and the other ear is 6.0 cm closer.

What is the tension between her ears?

Would the astronaut find it difficult to keep from being torn apart by the gravitational forces?

Answer:

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.

Explanation:

Given that:

Orbital radius of the spacecraft (R) = 120 Km = 120 × 10³ m

Mass of the black hole (m) = 5 \ * (M \ _{sun})

where : M_{sun} = 1.99*10^{33} \ kg

Then; we have:

 m = 5*(1.99*10^{30} \ kg ) \\ = 9.95*10^{30} kg

Schwarzchild radius of the black hole

r - 15.0 km

Mass of each ear m_{ear} = 0.030 \ kg

Farther distance between one ear and the black hole (d) = 6.0 cm

= 0.06 m

Closer distance between the other ear and the black home is (d) 6.0 cm

= 0.6 cm

NOW, If we assume that the tension force should be T; then definitely the two ears will posses the same angular velocity .

The net force on the ear closer to the black hole will be:

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)}- T = m_{ear} (R -  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R-d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R-d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (1)

The net force on the ear farther to the black hole is :

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)}- T = m_{ear} (R +  d) \omega^2

\frac{GMm_{ear} }{(R+d)^2}- \frac{T}{(R+d)} = m_{ear} \omega^2 \ ----> \ (2)

Equating equation (1) and (2) & therefore making (T) the subject of the formula; we have:

T = \frac{3GMm_{ear}d}{R^3}

T = \frac{3(6.67*10^{-11}N.m^2/kg^2)(1.95*10^{30}kg)(0.03kg)(0.06m)}{(120*10^3m)^3}

T = 2073.9 N\\T = 2.07 KN

The tension between the ears = 2.07 KN

The astronaut will find it difficult to keep and will eventually be in trouble because the tension is now greater compared to the tension in the human tissues.
