A person is pushing a book lying on a table. Identify the different forces that act on

Physics
2 answers:
BaLLatris [955]3 years ago
3 0

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>

The radius of a small ball is around 3.79747 cm. The radius of a basketball is about 3.16 times larger. What is the ratio of the
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Explanation:

The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the radii.

A/A = 3.16² = 9.99

The ratio of the volumes is the cube of the ratio of the radii.

V/V = 3.16³ = 31.6

The units we use to measure the sound intensity level are _____.
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

decibels (dB)

Explanation:

The sound intensity level is a quantity derived from the sound intensity.

The intensity of a wave is defined as the power of the source of the wave divided by the area through which the power of the wave is spread, mathematically:

I=\frac{P}{A}

where

P is the power of the source

A=4\pi r^2 is the surface area over which the wave spreads (assuming that the wave propagates in all directions, it corresponds to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where r is the distance between the source of the wave and the observer)

For sound waves, the intensity is often expressed using another unit, called decibel (dB), defined as follows:

\beta(dB)=10Log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_0})

where

\beta is the sound intensity level in decibels

I is the intensity of the sound wave

I_0=1\cdot 10^{-12} W/m^2 is the threshold intensity of a sound that a person can normally hear.

Is it possible for an object to be in motion without any external force applied? justify
Rudiy27
Newton’s first law is commonly stated as:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion.
However, this is missing an important element related to forces. We could expand it by stating:
An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion at a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
By the time Newton came along, the prevailing theory of motion—formulated by Aristotle—was nearly two thousand years old. It stated that if an object is moving, some sort of force is required to keep it moving. Unless that moving thing is being pushed or pulled, it will simply slow down or stop. Right?
This, of course, is not true. In the absence of any forces, no force is required to keep an object moving. An object (such as a ball) tossed in the earth’s atmosphere slows down because of air resistance (a force). An object’s velocity will only remain constant in the absence of any forces or if the forces that act on it cancel each other out, i.e. the net force adds up to zero. This is often referred to as equilibrium. The falling ball will reach a terminal velocity (that stays constant) once the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity.

A 0.500-kg stone is moving in a vertical circular path attached to a string that is 75.0 cm long. The stone is moving around the
Semenov [28]

Answer:

B. 7.07 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of the stone when it leaves the circular path is its tangential velocity, v, which is given by

v=\omega r

where \omega is the angular speed and r is the radius of the circular path.

\omega is given by

\omega = 2\pi f

where f is the frequency of revolution.

Thus

v=2\pi fr

Using values from the question,

v=2\pi\times 1.50\times0.75

<em>Note the conversion of 75 cm to 0.75 m</em>

v=2\times3.14\times 1.50\times0.75 = 9.42\times0.75 = 7.065=7.07
