Answer:
True
Explanation:
In this particular case, the area of the graph represents the impulse.
In fact, impulse is defined as the change in momentum of an object:
Moreover, impulse is also defined as the product between the magnitude of the force acting on an object and the duration of the collision:
If we plot a graph of the force versus the time, if the force is constant then this graph will have a rectangular shape, and the area under the graph will simply be the product
which corresponds to the definition of impulse.
Answer:
Explanation:
Applied force, F = 18 N
Coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.4
Coefficient of kinetic friction, μs = 0.3
θ = 27°
Let N be the normal reaction of the wall acting on the block and m be the mass of block.
Resolve the components of force F.
As the block is in the horizontal equilibrium, so
F Cos 27° = N
N = 18 Cos 27° = 16.04 N
As the block does not slide so it means that the syatic friction force acting on the block balances the downwards forces acting on the block .
The force of static friction is μs x N = 0.4 x 16.04 = 6.42 N .... (1)
The vertically downward force acting on the block is mg - F Sin 27°
= mg - 18 Sin 27° = mg - 8.172 ... (2)
Now by equating the forces from equation (1) and (2), we get
mg - 8.172 = 6.42
mg = 14.592
m x 9.8 = 14.592
m = 1.49 kg
Thus, the mass of block is 1.5 kg.
Answer:
Friction is a surface force that opposes relative motion.
