40 POINTSS. Now explore friction force. Set the piece of plastic or wood on the table and push it steadily across the tabletop u

sing your fingertip. Note how much opposition to your push you feel. Repeat the steps, but this time push the piece of plastic or wood across a rug, carpet, or piece of fabric. If you’re using fabric, be sure to secure the fabric so it doesn’t move. How does the opposition to motion on the tabletop compare with that of the rug, carpet, or fabric?

Answer: If there is a higher friction, the opposition force is higher so that it can reduce our speed. So, a factor that affects friction is the roughness or smoothness of the surface of the object. In comparison of the table with the fabric, the fabric will have a more opposition force. As the surface of the fabric is usually rougher than the surface of a smooth table. As there is more friction on a fabric, we will feel more opposition force on our finger tip.

A nonconducting sphere of diameter 10.0 cm carries charge distributed uniformly inside with charge density of +5.50 µC/m3 . A pr
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

t = 2.58*10^-6 s

Explanation:

For a nonconducting sphere you have that the value of the electric field, depends of the region:

rR:\\\\E=k\frac{Q}{r^2}

k: Coulomb's constant = 8.98*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

R: radius of the sphere = 10.0/2 = 5.0cm=0.005m

In this case you can assume that the proton is in the region for r > R. Furthermore you use the secon Newton law in order to find the acceleration of the proton produced by the force:

F=m_pa\\\\qE=m_pa\\\\k\frac{qQ}{r^2}=m_pa\\\\a=k\frac{qQ}{m_pr^2}

Due to the proton is just outside the surface you can use r=R and calculate the acceleration. Also, you take into account the charge density of the sphere in order to compute the total charge:

Q=\rho V=(5.5*10^{-6}C/m^3)(\frac{4}{3}\pi(0.05m)^3)=2.87*10^{-9}C\\\\a=(8.98*10^9Nm^2/C^2)\frac{(1.6*10^{-19}C)(2.87*10^{-9}C)}{(1.67*10^{-27}kg)(0.05m)^2}=9.87*10^{11}\frac{m}{s^2}

with this values of a you can use the following formula:

a=\frac{v-v_o}{t}\\\\t=\frac{v-v_o}{a}=\frac{2550*10^3m/s-0m/s}{9.87*10^{11}m/s^2}=2.58*10^{-6}s

hence, the time that the proton takes to reach a speed of 2550km is 2.58*10^-6 s

Light from distant galaxies most likely shows a ...red shift, indicating that the universe is expandingblue shift, indicating th
ELEN [110]

Answer:

red shift, indicating that the universe is expanding

Explanation:

Doppler effect occurs when a source of a wave (e.g. light, or sound waves) moves relative to an observer; as a result of this relative motion, the wavelength of the wave appears lengthened/shortened to the observer. Two situations can occur:

- The source of the wave is moving towards the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes shorter. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the blue-end of the spectrum (blue-shift)

- The source of the wave is moving away from the observer - in this case, the wavelength of the wave becomes longer. If the wave is visible light, such as the light emitted by distant galaxies, this means that the wavelength of the light shifts towards the red-end of the spectrum (red-shift)

In our universe, we observe a red-shift for all the distant galaxies: this means that these galaxies are moving away from us, so this is an indication that the universe is expanding.

One drawback of dams is that they can flood land upstream from the dam and reduce water flow downstream from the dam. Question 2
vivado [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

It can cause flooding and destruction of habitat because of dammed rivers create large reservoirs upstream which can spill out to the surrounding during heavy rainfall causing flooding and destruction of natural habitat.

A water line with an internal radius of 5.29 x 10-3 m is connected to a shower head that has 15 holes. The speed of the water in
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

(a) 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s

(b) 8.4 m/s

Explanation:

area of water line, A = 5.29 x 10^-3 m

number of holes, N = 15

Speed of water in line, V = 0.651 m/s

(a) Volume flow rate is given by

V = area of water line x speed of water in water line

V = 5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s

(b) area of one hole, a = 4.13 x 10^-4 m

Let v be the velocity of water in each hole

According to the equation of continuity

A x V = a x v

5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 4.1 x 10^-4 x v

v = 8.4 m/s
