Answer:

W = F * s

Work done equals applied force * distance traveled

Apparent weight = M g (1 - sin θ) since some of applied force will lighten sled

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

F cos θ = force applied to motion of sled

s = distance traveled

[μ M g (1 - sin θ)] cos θ * s = work done in moving sled

Note that F = μ M g if applied force is in the horizontal direction

Answer:

0.208 N

Explanation:

We are given that

$q_1=q_2=2.06\mu C=2.06\times 10^{-6} C$

$q_3=q_4=-2.06\mu C=-2.06\times 10^{-6} C$

Distance,d=0.41 m

The magnitude of the net electrostatic force experienced by any charge at point 4

Net force, $F_{net}=\sqrt{F^2_1+F^2_3+2F_1F_3cos90^{\circ}}-F_2$

$F_1=F_3=F$

$F_{net}=\sqrt{F^2+F^2+0}-F_2$

$F_{net}=\sqrt 2F-F_2$

$F=\frac{kq^2}{d^2}$

$F_2=\frac{Kq^2}{2d^2}$

$F_{net}=\frac{\sqrt 2kq^2}{d^2}-\frac{kq^2}{2d^2}=\frac{kq^2}{d^2}(\sqrt 2-\frac{1}{2})$

Where $k=9\times 10^9$

$F_{net}=\frac{9\times 10^9\times (2.06\times 10^{-6})^2}{(0.41)^2}(\sqrt 2-\frac{1}{2})$

$F_{net}=0.208 N$

Newton's first law of motion states that an object will keep a constant speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced f

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The unbalanced force that caused the ball to stop was friction

Explanation:

As Newton's second law states, the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force applied on the object:

$F=ma$

therefore, in order to move at constant speed, an object should have a net force of zero (balanced forces) acting on it.

In this case, the ball slows down and eventually comes to a stop: it means that the ball is decelerating, so there are unbalanced forces (net force different from zero) acting on it. The unbalanced force acting on the ball is the friction: friction is a force against the motion of the object, which is due to the contact between the surface of the ball and the surface of the street, and this force is responsible for slowing down the ball.

What is the ostrich's average acceleration from 9.0 to 18 seconds?

Sedaia [141]

The average acceleration from 9 to 18 seconds is 6 meters per second.

The graph shows that from 9 to 18 seconds the speed of the ostrich stays at a steady 6 meters per second.

How do i get a bf and how do i start to talk to him? I have this one crush and we have not even said one word to each other, Hes

taurus [48]

First introduce yourself. Start talking to him little by little. Compliment him, that’ll help. Make some jokes, and talk about stuff he is interested in. Make conversation. Try not to be overbearing.
