Apply Newton’s second law to calculate the frictional force needed to hold a 15 g pen in your fingers and keep it from falling

Physics

Roman55 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

0.1962N.

Explanation:

Weight is a force, so we use newtons second law which states F=ma. So the weight of a watermelon on earth is 2kg x 9.81m/s², which is 19.62N (newtons). On the moon it weighs 2 x 1.63 which is 3.26N.

The weight of the pen is 0.02 x 9.81, which is 0.1962N. If the pen is not to fall the frictional force needs to be equal to this force,

so the answer is 0.1962N.

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Let’s say you pour an ounce of water from a class into a bowl. Does the water’s mass change?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

No. If you take 5$ from your wallet and place on the shelf, does it change its value - No. So if you take the water from class(does not matter how much) and pour all of it somewhere else, it doesn't change its mass, yet it changes its shape.

The lead nucleus has a diameter of 14.2 fm. What is the electric field strength at the surface of a lead nucleus
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

E = kQ / r^2 = 2.34*10^21 V/m

where k = 8.99*10^9 m/F

Q = 82 * 1.6*10^-19 C

r = 7.1*10^-15 m

Explanation:

14.2 FM = 2.34×10^21 V/m

makvit [3.9K]

Answer: 4.675×10^-6 m

Explanation: this is a question under the pattern gotten from an interference experiment.

The formulae below defines the experiment given

y = Rmλ/d

Where y = distance between the center fringe and any other fringe in the pattern = 8cm = 0.08m

m = position of fringe = 1 ( this is because we have only one central band)

λ = wavelength of light used for experiment = 680nm = 6.8×10^-7m

d = width of slit =?

R = distance between slits and screen = 5.5 cm = 0.055m

By substituting the parameters, we have that

0.08 = 0.055 × 1 × 6.8×10^-7/d

By cross multiplying, we have that

0.08 × d = 0.055 × 1 × 6.8×10^-7

d = 0.055 × 1 × 6.8×10^-7/ 0.08

d = 3.74 × 10^-7/ 0.08

d = 46.75×10^-7

d = 4.675×10^-6 m
