2. Can you place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g so they are in equilibrium. Justify your answer.

Physics
1 answer:
Bond [772]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

We cannot place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g in equilibrium.

Explanation:

Equilibrium means their sum must be zero.

Here the forces are 5g, 6g, and 12g.

For number of forces to be in equilibrium the magnitude of largest vector should be less than sum of the magnitude of other vectors.

Here

        Magnitude of largest force = 12 g

        Sum of magnitudes of other forces = 5g + 6g = 11g

       Magnitude of largest force >   Sum of magnitudes of other forces

So this forces cannot form equilibrium.

We cannot place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g in equilibrium.

A can of sardines is made to move along an x axis from x = 0.47 m to x = 1.20 m by a force with a magnitude given by F = exp(–8x
sattari [20]
If the force were constant or increasing, we could guess that the speed of the sardines is increasing. Since the force is decreasing but staying in contact with the can, we know that the can is slowing down, so there must be friction involved.
Work is the integral of (force x distance) over the distance, which is just the area under the distance/force graph.
The integral of exp(-8x) dx that we need is (-1/8)exp(-8x) evaluated from 0.47 to 1.20 .

I get 0.00291 of a Joule ... seems like a very suspicious solution, but for an exponential integral at a cost of 5 measly points, what can you expect. On the other hand, it's not really too unreasonable. The force is only 0.023 Newton at the beginning, and 0.000067 newton at the end, and the distance is only about 0.7 meter, so there certainly isn't a lot of work going on. The main question we're left with after all of this is: Why sardines ? ?

31) The basic concept of how a simple motor works is explained by which statement?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

When a wire that carries electrical current is placed in a magnetic field the wire experiences a force.

Explanation:

The electric motor is a device which convert electrical energy into mechanical energy  ie when current carrying conductor is placed in magnetic field it experience a force. Flemings left hand rule explains the direction of the current.

The electric motor works by attraction and repulsion of magnetic field.

So the option d explains basic concept of simple motor ie when when current carrying wire is placed in the magnetic field it experience magnetic repulsive force.

I don’t understand how to do this
anzhelika [568]

Explanation:

A) Use Hooke's law to find the spring constant.

F = kx

40 N = k (0.4 m)

k = 100 N/m

B) Period of a spring-mass system is:

T = 2π √(m / k)

T = 2π √(2.6 kg / 100 N/m)

T = 1 s

Frequency is the inverse of period.

f = 1 / T

f = 1 Hz

Sound travels slowest through gas because the atoms in a gas are further apart than the other states of matter.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

If they were farther apart they would be able to slip by through which means that it can go by faster. If the atoms where closer together then yes they would be able to go by slower.
