Explanation:

There are two forces acting upon the book. One force - the Earth's gravitational pull - exerts a downward force. The other force - the push of the table on the book (sometimes referred to as a normal force) - pushes upward on the book.

There are mainly 3 forces which acts on a book.

Listed below are the forces and their points:-

• <u>Earth's Gravitational force of attraction</u>- Usually, we may not consider or notice this force, but when a book falls, we understand this, because the book falls due to this gravitational force.

• <u>Force exerted on book while pushing it</u>- While we push a book, we apply Push Force, due to which the book moves on the pushing it on a table.

• <u>Frict</u><u>ional</u><u> </u><u>Force</u>- We notice that while pushing a book, it does not continuously move in motion. At a certain distance, this Frictional force increases and therefore, the book comes to a halt.

<em>Location-</em> <em>Opposite of exerted force in all directions</em>

I help much help on 18!!!

I think it's something like electrons don't attract, cuz you know the saying "Opposites attract." Cause electrons are negative... Ahaha... sorry, I don't know the answer.

A 12.0 μF capacitor is charged to a potential of 50.0 V and then discharged through a 265 Ω resistor. A)How long does the capaci

larisa [96]

(a) The time for the capacitor to loose half its charge is 2.2 ms.

(b) The time for the capacitor to loose half its energy is 1.59 ms.

<h3>Time taken to loose half of its charge</h3>

q(t) = q₀e-^(t/RC)

q(t)/q₀ = e-^(t/RC)

0.5q₀/q₀ = e-^(t/RC)

0.5 = e-^(t/RC)

1/2 = e-^(t/RC)

t/RC = ln(2)

t = RC x ln(2)

t = (12 x 10⁻⁶ x 265) x ln(2)

t = 2.2 x 10⁻³ s

t = 2.2 ms

<h3>Time taken to loose half of its stored energy</h3>

U(t) = Ue-^(t/RC)

U = ¹/₂Q²/C

(Ue-^(t/RC))²/2C = Q₀²/2Ce

e^(2t/RC) = e

2t/RC = 1

t = RC/2

t = (265 x 12 x 10⁻⁶)/2

t = 1.59 x 10⁻³ s

t = 1.59 ms

Thus, the time for the capacitor to loose half its charge is 2.2 ms and the time for the capacitor to loose half its energy is 1.59 ms.

An inductor is connected to a 26.5 Hz power supply that produces a 41.2 V rms voltage. What minimum inductance is needed to keep

alexira [117]

Answer:

The minimum inductance needed is 2.78 H

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the AC, f = 26.5 Hz

the root mean square voltage in the circuit, $V_{rms}$ = 41.2 V

the maximum current in the circuit, I₀ = 126 mA

The root mean square current is given by;

$I_{rms} = \frac{I_o}{\sqrt{2} } \\\\I_{rms} = \frac{126*10^{-3}}{\sqrt{2} }\\\\I_{rms} =0.0891 \ A$

The inductive reactance is given by;

$X_l = \frac{V_{rms}}{I_{rms}} \\\\X_l= \frac{41.2}{0.0891}\\\\X_l = 462.4 \ ohms$

The minimum inductance needed is given by;

$X_l = \omega L\\\\X_l = 2\pi fL\\\\L = \frac{X_l}{2\pi f}\\\\L = \frac{462.4}{2\pi *26.5}\\\\L = 2.78 \ H$

Therefore, the minimum inductance needed is 2.78 H

I need help with part D

natka813 [3]

1). The little projectile is affected by friction all the way through the block.
Friction robs some kinetic energy.

2). The block is affected by friction as it scrapes along the top of the post.
Friction robs some kinetic energy.

3). The block is also affected by friction with the air (air resistance) as it
falls to the ground. Friction robs some kinetic energy.

Earthquakes are caused by movement of the Earth's crust. What causes the Earth's crust to move?

fomenos

Answer:

Explanation:

The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other. This movement is called plate motion, or a tectonic shift.
