The angle θ is slowly increased. Write an expression for the angle at which the block begins to move in terms of μs.

Reika [66]

Answer:

$tan \theta = \mu_s$

Explanation:

An object is at rest along a slope if the net force acting on it is zero. The equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the slope is:

$mg sin \theta - \mu_s R =0$ (1)

where

$mg sin \theta$ is the component of the weight parallel to the slope, with m being the mass of the object, g the acceleration of gravity, $\theta$ the angle of the slope

$\mu_s R$ is the frictional force, with $\mu_s$ being the coefficient of friction and R the normal reaction of the incline

The equation of the forces along the direction perpendicular to the slope is

$R-mg cos \theta = 0$

where

R is the normal reaction

$mg cos \theta$ is the component of the weight perpendicular to the slope

Solving for R,

$R=mg cos \theta$

And substituting into (1)

$mg sin \theta - \mu_s mg cos \theta = 0$

Re-arranging the equation,

$sin \theta = \mu_s cos \theta\\\rightarrow tan \theta = \mu_s$

This the condition at which the equilibrium holds: when the tangent of the angle becomes larger than the value of $\mu_s$ , the force of friction is no longer able to balance the component of the weight parallel to the slope, and so the object starts sliding down.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Part 1 $E = 2.42 * 10^{21} N/C$

Part 2 $E = 1.3 * 10^{13} N/C$

Part 3 $E = 0$

Explanation:

Given

Number of protons $= 92$

Radius of nucleus $r_n = 7.4 * 10^{-15} m$

Distance of the electrons $r_1 = 1.0 * 10^ {-10} m$

Part 1

Electric field produced by just outside its surface

$E = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(7.4* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 2.42 * 10^{21} N/C$

Part 2

Electric field produced by just outside its surface

$E = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(1* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 1.3 * 10^{13} N/C$

Part 3

The net electric field inside a uniform shell of negative charge is zero because the electric flux lines cancel out each other

hence, the solution is

Part 1 $E = 2.42 * 10^{21} N/C$

Part 2 $E = 1.3 * 10^{13} N/C$

Part 3 $E = 0$

A loudspeaker in a parked car is producing sound whose frequency is 20 510 Hz. A healthy young person with normal hearing is sta

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The car must be moving away from the person.

Explanation:

From Doppler's Effect, we know that when a sound source moves towards a stationary observer, the apparent frequency of that sound increases. While the apparent frequency decreases if the source moves away from the stationary observer.

The audible range of frequencies for a human ear is 20 Hz to 20000 Hz. Therefore, in order for the sound of a loud speaker to be audible for the person, the frequency must decrease below 20000 Hz.

<u>Due to this reason, the car must be moving away from the person.</u>
