The greatest advantage of SI is that it has only one unit for each quantity (type of measurement). This means that it is never necessary to convert from one unit to another (within the system) and there are no conversion factors for students to memorize. For example, the one and only SI unit of length is the metre (m).

A 20.0-N weight slides down a rough inclined plane which makes an angle of 30 degree with the horizontal. The weight starts from
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1270.64\ \text{J}

Explanation:

m = Mass of object = \dfrac{mg}{g}

mg = Weight of object = 20 N

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

v = Final velocity = 15 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0

d = Distance moved by the object = 150 m

\theta = Angle of slope = 30^{\circ}

f = Force of friction

fd = Work done against friction

The force balance of the system is

\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=(mg\sin\theta-f)d\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mg\sin\theta d-fd\\\Rightarrow fd=mg\sin\theta d-\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow fd=20\times \sin 30^{\circ}\times 150-\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{20}{9.81}\times 15^2\\\Rightarrow fd=1270.64\ \text{J}

The work done against friction is 1270.64\ \text{J}.

Insulators have very high .
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Resistance to electrical currents

Explanation:

Conductors have low resistance to electrical currents, and are used to "conduct" the flow of electricity.

Insulators have very high resistance and are used to protect us from the flow of electricity.

Find the average force exerted by the bat on the ball if the two are in contact for 0.00129 s. Answer in units of N.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

time of contact between bat and ball is t=0.00129 s

suppose u is the incoming velocity and v is the final velocity after collision

m=mass\ of\ ball

Impulse exerted is given by change in momentum of the particle.

Initial momentum P_i=m\times u

Final momentum P_f=m\times v

Change in momentum \Delta P=P_i-P_f

Impulse    J=F_{avg}\cdot t=\Delta P

J=F_{avg}\cdot t=m(u-v)

F_{avg}=\frac{m(v-u)}{t}

F_{avg}=775.2\times m(v-u)\ N
