erik [133]3 years ago

Answer:

There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.

When a mass M hangs from a vertical wire of length L, waves travel on this wire with a speed V. What will be the speed of these
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

a)  v = 0.7071 v₀, b) v= v₀, c)  v = 0.577 v₀, d)   v = 1.41 v₀, e)  v = 0.447 v₀

Explanation:

The speed of a wave along an eta string given by the expression

          v = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{ \mu } }

where T is the tension of the string and μ is linear density

a) the mass of the cable is double

          m = 2m₀

let's find the new linear density

          μ = m / l

iinitial density

          μ₀ = m₀ / l

final density

          μ = 2m₀ / lo

          μ = 2 μ₀

we substitute in the equation for the velocity

initial            v₀ = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \mu_o} }

with the new dough

                    v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ 2 \mu_o} }

                    v = 1 /√2  \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \mu_o} }

                    v = 1 /√2 v₀

                    v = 0.7071 v₀

b) we double the length of the cable

If the cable also increases its mass, the relationship is maintained

              μ = μ₀

   in this case the speed does not change

c) the cable l = l₀ and m = 3m₀

we look for the density

           μ = 3m₀ / l₀

           μ = 3 m₀/l₀

           μ = 3 μ₀

            v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ 3 \mu_o} }

            v = 1 /√3  v₀

            v = 0.577 v₀

d) l = 2l₀

            μ = m₀ / 2l₀

            μ = μ₀/ 2

           v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{ \frac{ \mu_o}{2} } }

           v = √2 v₀

            v = 1.41 v₀

e) m = 10m₀ and l = 2l₀

we look for the density

             μ = 10 m₀/2l₀

             μ = 5 μ₀

we look for speed

             v = \sqrt{ \frac{T_o}{5 \mu_o} }

             v = 1 /√5  v₀

             v = 0.447 v₀

A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a mass-less seesaw. If they both move forward so that they are one-half their
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Explanation:

b) Nothing will happen,  the sea saw will still be balanced.

Reason:-

When two kids are balanced, the sum of torques on the seesaw will be zero.

if each kid, reduces their distances by half, then the torque of each kid will be half and the sum of torque of each on the seesaw will be zero.

Therefore the seesaw is balanced

Q9 A physics book slides off a horizontal tabletop with a speed of 1.10 m/s. It strikes the floor in 0.350s. ignore air resistan
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

(a) 0.613 m

(b) 0.385 m

(c) vₓ = 1.10 m/s, vᵧ = 3.50 m/s

v = 3.68 m/s², θ = 72.6° below the horizontal

Explanation:

(a)  Take down to be positive.

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

t = 0.350 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (10 m/s²) (0.350 s)²

Δy = 0.613 m

(b) Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 1.10 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.350 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (1.10 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.350 s)²

Δx = 0.385 m

(c) Find: vₓ and vᵧ

vₓ = aₓt + v₀ₓ

vₓ = (0 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 1.10 m/s

vₓ = 1.10 m/s

vᵧ = aᵧt + v₀ᵧ

vᵧ = (10 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 0 m/s

vᵧ = 3.50 m/s

The magnitude is:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v = 3.68 m/s²

The direction is:

θ = atan(vᵧ / vₓ)

θ = 72.6° below the horizontal

Newton began his academic career in 1667. For how long was he a working scientist? Was he a very productive scientist?
rjkz [21]
Newton's 3 laws are...

inertia: things tend to continue to do what they are doing.

Change: to make something change you need a force to change it. the force needed = the mass times its acceleration

<span> Resistance: When you push on something, it pushes back.

What substances were found in the innermost regions (within about the inner 0.3 AUAU) of the solar system before planets began t
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Hydrogen and helium compounds.

Explanation:

We know that the solar System was formed around <u>4.6 billion years ago, </u>due to the gravitational collapse of a giant interstellar molecular cloud.

This cloud  is a type of interstellar cloud and its density and size permit the formation of molecules, most commonly molecular hydrogen.

Therefore the principal substances were found before planets began to form are hydrogen and helium compounds, besides Rocks, metals, most of them in gaseous form.

I hope it helps you!
