A 2 kg object being pulled across the floor with a speed of 10 m/sec is suddenly

Physics

zvonat [6]2 years ago

Answer:

The frictional force producing this deceleration would have a magnitude of 4\; \rm N.

Explanation:

The velocity of this object changed by \Delta v = (-10\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}) in \Delta t = 5\; \rm s. The acceleration of this object would be:

\begin{aligned}a &= \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \\ &= \frac{-10\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}}{5\; \rm s} = -2\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}\end{aligned}.

Let m denote the mass of this object. By Newton's Second Law of Motion, the net force on this object would be:

\begin{aligned}F &= m \, a \\ &= 2\; \rm kg \times (-2\; \rm m\cdot s^{-2}) \\ &= -4\; \rm N\end{aligned}.

(1\; {\rm kg \cdot m \cdot s^{-2} = 1\; {\rm N}.)

If the floor is level, friction would be the only unbalanced force on this object. Thus, the magnitude of the frictional force on this object would also be 4\; {\rm N}, same as the magnitude of the net force on this object.

In Rutherford's gold foil experiment, some of the positive particles would pass through the foil and some would bounce off. This led to a new theory that all of the positive subatomic particles were in the center of the atom instead of evenly spread throughout.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:D) His Facial expressions when they spend time together

 

Explanation:

Eva's should carefully observe the normal verbal signs by her lover because facial expression gives the hint to listener or viewer that one is interested towards other.

Some common facial Expression are

  • Smiling Eyes:While smiling is, of course, an important expression when we speak, attempting to keep a constant  smile could make you look more like a trained sociopath than a happy, enthusiastic presenter. These enables other person to feel the good vibes out of you and left a positive impact of your presence.
  • Nod on: It is important to express interest in the feedback of your audience. No one likes an identity-centered snob. One way to show that you're actually engaged in the comments and questions they pose is by nodding while you're listening. Moving your head a little wider will help to express your attention as well.

A 103 kg physics professor has fallen into the Grand Canyon. Luckily, he managed to grab a branch and is now hanging 93 m below
siniylev [52]

Answer:

125.83672 seconds

Explanation:

P = Power of the horse = 1 hp = 746 W (as it is not given we have assumed the horse has the power of 1 hp)

m = Mass of professor = 103 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height of professor = 93 m

Work done would be equal to the potential energy

W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=103\times 9.8\times 93\\\Rightarrow W=93874.2\ J

Power is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{W}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{93874.2}{746}\\\Rightarrow t=125.83672\ seconds

The time taken by the horse to pull the professor is 125.83672 seconds
