While an object near the earths surface is in free fall, its
A) velocity increases
B) acceleration increases

Answers

Answer:

a

Explanation:

The rate of change of an object's location with relation to a reference point is its velocity, which is dependent on time. when an object is dropped from space at rest (t = 0) under the influence of gravity, the velocity of the object changes and increases with time while the acceleration decreases.

If a bale of hay behind the target exerts a constant friction force, how much farther will your arrow burry itself into the hay than the arrow from the younger shooter

Answers

Answer:

The arrow will bury itself farther by 3S₁

Explanation:

lets assume; the Arrow shot by me has a speed twice the speed of the arrow fired by the younger shooter

Given that ; acceleration is constant , Frictional force is constant

                    A₂ =   A₁

Vf²₂ - Vi²₂ / 2s₂  = Vf₁² - Vi₁² / 2s₁ ---- ( 1 )

final velocities = 0

Initial velocities : Vi₂ = 2(Vi₁ )

Back to equation 1

0 - (2Vi₁ )² / 2s₂ =  0 - Vi₁² / 2s₁

hence :

s₂ = 4s₁

hence the Arrow shot by me will burry itself farther by :

s₂ - s₁ = 3s₁

Note :  S1 = distance travelled by the arrow shot by the younger shooter

Two charged particles exert an electric force of 27 N on each other. What will the magnitude of the force be if the distance between the particles is reduced to one-third of the original separation

Answers

Answer:

243 N

Explanation:

The formula for electromagnetic force is F= Kq1q2/r^2

where r is the distance between the charges, if the distance between the charges is reduced by 1/3 then F will increase by 9 [(1/3r)^2 becomes 1/9r which is 9F] so 27*9 is 243N

A child is outside his home playing with a metal hoop and stick. He uses the stick to keep the hoop of radius 45.0 cm rotating along the road surface. At one point the hoop coasts downhill and picks up speed. (a) If the hoop starts from rest at the top of the hill and reaches a linear speed of 6.35 m/s in 11.0 s, what is the angular acceleration, in rad/s2, of the hoop? rad/s2 (b) If the radius of the hoop were smaller, how would this affect the angular acceleration of the hoop? i. The angular acceleration would decrease. ii. The angular acceleration would increase. iii. There would be no change to the angular acceleration.

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex] \alpha = 1.28 rad/s^{2} [/tex]  

b) Option ii. The angular acceleration would increase

Explanation:

a) The angular acceleration is given by:

[tex] \omega_{f} = \omega_{0} + \alpha t [/tex]

Where:

[tex] \omega_{f} [/tex]: is the final angular speed = v/r

v: is the tangential speed = 6.35 m/s

r: is the radius = 45.0 cm = 0.45 m

[tex]\omega_{0}[/tex]: is the initial angular speed = 0 (the hoop starts from rest)

t: is the time = 11.0 s

α: is the angular acceleration

Hence, the angular acceleration is:

[tex] \alpha = \frac{\omega}{t} = \frac{v}{r*t} = \frac{6.35 m/s}{0.45 m*11.0 s} = 1.28 rad/s^{2} [/tex]  

b) If the radius were smaller, the angular acceleration would increase since we can see in the equation that the radius is in the denominator ([tex] \alpha = \frac{v}{r*t} [/tex]).

Therefore, the correct option is ii. The angular acceleration would increase.

Two blocks in contact with each other are pushed to the right across a rough horizontal surface by the two forces shown. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between each of the blocks and the surface is 0.30, determine the magnitude of the force exerted on the 2.0-kg block by the 3.0-kg block.

Answers

I assume the blocks are pushed together at constant speed, and it's not so important but I'll also assume it's the smaller block being pushed up against the larger one. (The opposite arrangement works out much the same way.)

Consider the forces acting on either block. Let the direction in which the blocks are being pushed by the positive direction.

The 2.0-kg block feels

• the downward pull of its own weight, (2.0 kg) g

• the upward normal force of the surface, magnitude n₁

• kinetic friction, mag. f₁ = 0.30n₁, pointing in the negative horizontal direction

• the contact force of the larger block, mag. c₁, also pointing in the negative horizontal direction

• the applied force, mag. F, pointing in the positive horizontal direction

Meanwhile the 3.0-kg block feels

• its own weight, (3.0 kg) g, pointing downward

• normal force, mag. n₂, pointing upward

• kinetic friction, mag. f₂ = 0.30n₂, pointing in the negative horizontal direction

• contact force from the smaller block, mag. c₂, pointing in the positive horizontal direction (this is the force that is causing the larger block to move)

Notice the contact forces form an action-reaction pair, so that c₁ = c₂, so we only need to find one of these, and we can get it right away from the net forces acting on the 3.0-kg block in the vertical and horizontal directions:

• net vertical force:

n₂ - (3.0 kg) g = 0   ==>   n₂ = (3.0 kg) g   ==>   f₂ = 0.30 (3.0 kg) g

• net horizontal force:

c₂ - f₂ = 0   ==>   c₂ = 0.30 (3.0 kg) g8.8 N

In a new scenario, the block only makes it (exactly) half-way through the rough spot. How far was the spring compressed from its unstretched length

Answers

Answer: hello  below is the missing part of your question

A mass m = 10 kg rests on a frictionless table and accelerated by a spring with spring constant k = 5029 N/m. The floor is frictionless except for a rough patch. For this rough path, the coefficient of friction is μk = 0.49. The mass leaves the spring at a speed v = 3.4 m/s.

answer

x = 0.0962 m

Explanation:

First step :

Determine the length of the rough patch/spot

F = Uₓ (mg)

and  w = F.d = Uₓ (mg)  * d

hence;

d( length of rough patch) = w / Uₓ (mg) = 46.55 / (0.49 * 10 * 9.8) = 0.9694 m

next :

work done on unstretched spring length

Given that block travels halfway i.e. d = 0.9694 / 2 = 0.4847 m

w' = Uₓ (mg)  * d

    = 0.49 * 10 * 9.81 * 0.4847 = 23.27 J

also given that the Elastic energy of spring = work done ( w')

1/2 * kx^2 = 23.27 J

x = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2*23.27}{5029} }[/tex]  = 0.0962 m

the unit for
ΔL/L
is

Answers

Answer:

the unit for ΔL/L is "unitless".

Explanation:

Given;

ΔL/L

by physics convection, the above parameters can be defined as;

delta L (ΔL) is change in length, with SI unit as meters (m),

L is the original length of the material, with SI unit as meters (m)

The ratio of the change in length to the original length has no unit since both units cancel out during the division.

[tex]\frac{\Delta L }{L } = \frac{(m)}{(m)} = \ unitless[/tex]

This ratio (ΔL/L), is also called tensile strain and it has no unit.

Therefore, the unit for ΔL/L is "unitless".

If Katie swims from one end of the pool, to the other side, and then swims back to her original spot, her average velocity is half of her average speed when she swam to the other side.a) trueb) false

Answers

Answer:

false.

Explanation:

Ok, we define average velocity as the sum of the initial and final velocity divided by two.

Remember that the velocity is a vector, so it has a direction.

Then when she goes from the 1st end to the other, the velocity is positive

When she goes back, the velocity is negative

if both cases the magnitude of the velocity, the speed, is the same, then the average velocity is:

AV = (V + (-V))/2  = 0

While the average speed is the quotient between the total distance traveled (twice the length of the pool) and the time it took to travel it.

So we already can see that the average velocity will not be equal to half of the average speed.

The image of the object formed by the lens is real, enlarged and inverted. What is the kind of lens ?​

Answers

Answer:

Converging (convex) lens.

Explanation:

A lens can be defined as a transparent optical instrument that refracts rays of light to produce a real image.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of lens and these includes;

I. Diverging (concave) lens.

II. Converging (convex) lens.

A converging (convex) lens refers to a type of lens that typically causes parallel rays of light with respect to its principal axis to come to a focus (converge) and form a real image. Thus, this type of lens is usually thin at the lower and upper edges and thick across the middle.

Basically, the image of the object formed by a converging (convex) lens. lens is real, enlarged and inverted.

A coin and feather are dropped in a moon. what will fall earlier on ground.give reasons.if they are dropped in the earth,which one will fall faster?

Answers

Answer:

When an object is dropped, the "principal" force that acts on that object is the gravitational force.

Thus, in the absence of air resistance and such, the acceleration of the object will be equal to the gravitational acceleration:

g = 9.8m/s^2

So, when we drop objects in the moon (where there is no air) the acceleration of every object will be exactly the same. (so there is no dependence in the mass or shape of the object)

Thus, if we drop a coin and a feather in the moon, both objects will fall with the same acceleration, and then both objects will hit the ground at the same time.

But if we are in Earth, we can not ignore the air resistance (a force that acts in the opposite direction than the movement of the object)

And this force depends on the shape and mass of the object (for example, something with a really larger surface and really thin, like a sheet of paper will be more affected by this force than a small rock)

Then here, when the air resistance applies, we should expect that the heavier and smaller object (the coin) to be less affected by this force, then the resistance that the coin experiences is smaller, then the coin falls "faster" than the feather.

A coin and feather are dropped in a moon. what will fall earlier on ground.give reasons.if they are dropped in the earth,which one will fall faster

Answers

Answer:

on the moon, they will fall at the timeon earth, the coin will fall faster to the ground

Explanation:

A coin and feather dropped in a moon experience the same acceleration due to gravity as small as 1.625 m/s², and because of the absence of air resistance both will fall at the same rate to the ground.

If the same coin and feather are dropped in the earth, they will experience the same acceleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s² and because of the presence of air resistance, the heavier object (coin) will be pulled faster to the ground by gravity than the lighter object (feather).
