Two forces act on a block as shown in the picture. What is the net force of the block?

Physics
1 answer:

Answer:

10 N to the left.

Explanation:

Since the forces are acting in opposite directions, you need to calculate the difference.

20 N - 10 N = 10 N

More force is being exerted to the left. Therefore, the net force is 10 N to the left.

A centrifuge has an angular velocity of 3,000 rpm, what is the acceleration (in unit of the earth gravity) at a point with a rad
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

a_{r} = 1006.382g \,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Explanation:

Let suppose that centrifuge is rotating at constant angular speed, which means that resultant acceleration is equal to radial acceleration at given radius, whose formula is:

a_{r} = \omega^{2}\cdot R

Where:

\omega - Angular speed, measured in radians per second.

R - Radius of rotation, measured in meters.

The angular speed is first determined:

\omega = \frac{\pi}{30}\cdot \dot n

Where \dot n is the angular speed, measured in revolutions per minute.

If \dot n = 3000\,rpm, the angular speed measured in radians per second is:

\omega = \frac{\pi}{30}\cdot (3000\,rpm)

\omega \approx 314.159\,\frac{rad}{s}

Now, if \omega = 314.159\,\frac{rad}{s} and R = 0.1\,m, the resultant acceleration is then:

a_{r} = \left(314.159\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}\cdot (0.1\,m)

a_{r} = 9869.588\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

If gravitational acceleration is equal to 9.807 meters per square second, then the radial acceleration is equivalent to 1006.382 times the gravitational acceleration. That is:

a_{r} = 1006.382g \,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Current cannot flow through a circuit when the switch is _____.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Open

Closed

Explanation:

An open circuit is an electrical circuit in which the electric current does not circulate because it is interrupted or not communicated by means of an electrical conductor. While in a closed circuit, the current, that is the flow of electrons, travels from the beginning of the circuit to the end.

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 48.0 cm . The explorer finds that
Ber [7]

Answer:

g = 12.22 m/s²

Explanation:

The time period of this pendulum is given as follows:

T = \frac{time\ taken}{no. of cycles}\\\\T = \frac{144\ s}{93}\\\\T = 1.55\ s

but the formula for the time period of a simple pendulum is as follows:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}\\

where,

L = length of pednulum = 48 cm = 0.48 m

g = magnitude of th gravitational acceleration on this planet = ?

Therefore,

1.55\ s=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.48\ m}{g}}\\\\\sqrt{g} = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.48\ m}{1.55\ s}}\\\\g = 3.49^{2}\\

<u>g = 12.22 m/s²</u>
