<h2>Answer: </h2>

<u><em>1 cm per 10 seconds </em></u>

<h2>Explanation: </h2>

<em>16 minutes and 40 seconds is 1000 seconds so take the 1 meter turn it into 100 centimeters then divide both sides by 100 and you get your answer which is </em><u><em>1 centimeter every 10 seconds.</em></u>

1 7.1.2 Quiz: Electrostatics
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

charge and distance

Explanation:

The electric force between the two particles are calculated using the formular:

F = kQ₁Q₂ / d²

where:

F = force.

k= Coulomb's law constant.

Q1 and Q2 are the charges.

d= distance.

the equation above is called Coulomb's law.

It can be seen from the equation above that the electric forces between the objects are majorly affected by the substance's charges and distance.

so the correct option is charge and distance.

Consider a lawnmower of mass m which can slide across a horizontal surface with a coefficient of friction μ. In this problem the
inna [77]

Answer:

Fh = u*m*g / (cos(θ) - u*sin(θ))

Explanation:

Given:

- The mass of lawnmower = m

- The angle the handle makes with the horizontal = θ

- The force applied along the handle = Fh

- The coefficient of friction of the lawnmower with ground = u

Find:

Find the magnitude, Fh, of the force required to slide the lawnmower over the ground at constant speed by pushing the handle.

Solution:

- Construct a Free Body Diagram (FBD) for the lawnmower.

- Realize that there is horizontal force applied parallel to ground due to Fh that drives the lawnmower and a friction force that opposes this motion. We will use to Newton's law of motion to express these two forces in x-direction as follows:

                                     F_net,x = m*a

- Since, the lawnmower is to move with constant speed then we have a = 0.

                                     F_net,x = 0

- The forces as follows:

                                     Fh*cos(θ) - Ff = 0

Where, Ff is the frictional force:

                                     Fh = Ff /cos(θ)

Similarly, for vertical direction y the forces are in equilibrium. Using equilibrium equation in y direction we have:

                                    - W - Fh*sin(θ) + Fn = 0

Where, W is the weight of the lawnmower and Fn is the contact force exerted by the ground on the lawnmower. Then we have:

                                     Fn = W + Fh*sin(θ)

                                     Fn = m*g + Fh*sin(θ)

The Frictional force Ff is proportional to the contact force Fn by:

                                     Ff = u*Fn

                                     Ff = u*(m*g + Fh*sin(θ))

Substitute this expression in the form derived for Fh and Ff:

                                     Fh*cos(θ) = u*(m*g + Fh*sin(θ))

                                     Fh*(cos(θ) - u*sin(θ)) = u*m*g

                                     Fh = u*m*g / (cos(θ) - u*sin(θ))

1. Briefly Explain why sliding friction is less than static friction.
stellarik [79]

Explanation:

No surface is perfectly smooth.  Everything has irregularities, like bumps and ridges.  Static friction is the friction between non-moving objects when their surfaces lock together.  When an object is sliding, its surface skips and jumps along the surface of the other object.  Because there's less locking between the surfaces, the sliding friction is less than the static friction.
