Answer:2 m/s²

Explanation:

mass=0.25 kg

Force =0.5 N

Acceleration=force/mass

Acceleration=0.5/0.25

Acceleration=2

Acceleration =2 m/s²

A large box of mass m sits on a horizontal floor. You attach a lightweight rope to this box, hold the rope at an angle θ above t
inna [3103]

Answer:

The answer to the specified question will be "\mu_{s}=\frac{T_{m}Cos\theta}{M_{g}-T_{m}Sin\theta}".

Explanation:

Referring to the question,

\sum F_{x}

⇒  TCos \theta-F_{s}=0

⇒  T_{m}Cos \theta =F_{s}...(equation 1)

\sum F_{y}

⇒  TSin \theta+F_{N}=m_{g}

⇒  M_{g}-TSin \theta=F_{N}...(equation 2)

Now,

From equation 1 and equation 2, we conclude

⇒  T_{m} Cos \theta = \mu_{s}F_{N}

By substituting the value of F_{N}, we derive

⇒  T_{m} Cos\theta = \mu_{s}(M_{g}-T_{m}Sin \theta)

⇒  \mu_{s}=\frac{T_{m}Cos\theta}{M_{g}-T_{m}Sin\theta}

A solar system may form from a spinning disk of material called a(n _____
serg [3582]
The correct term is accretion disk. This refers to a formation, typically a circumstellar disk, created by dispersed matter revolving around a large central body, which is usually a star. The gravitational pull causes the material in the disk to spiral inward towards the center.

For a projectile, which of the following quantities are constant during the flight: x, y, vx, vy, v, ax, ay? Check all that appl
Yuliya22 [3333]

Response:

C. vx

F. ax

G. ay

Clarification:

The projectile follows a curved trajectory toward the ground, causing changes in x and y positions.

Since there is no external force acting in the x-direction, the acceleration in x remains at zero. Consequently, ax and vx remain unchanged.

The projectile is subject to the force of gravity, directed downwards, leading to an increase in its velocity due to the rise in its y-component.

Meanwhile, the y-component of acceleration remains constant due to gravitational acceleration.

F = π/4 ρ d² v²

Explanation:

The formula for force is mass multiplied by acceleration:

F = ma

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over the change in time:

F = m Δv / Δt

Since there is no rebound effect, Δv is equal to v.

F = m v / Δt

Mass can be calculated as density multiplied by volume:

F = ρ V v / Δt

Flow rate describes the volume per time:

F = ρ Q v

Flow rate is determined by velocity multiplied by the cross-sectional area:

F = ρ (v A) v

This simplifies to F = ρ A v²

The area of a circle is calculated as pi times the square of the radius, or as pi/4 times the diameter squared:

F = ρ (π/4 d²) v²

Hence, F = π/4 ρ d² v²

A parachutist, after opening her parachute, finds herself gently floating downward, no longer gaining speed. She feels the upwar
Sav [3153]

As the parachutist is descending at a steady rate

we can conclude that

a = \frac{dv}{dt}

Acceleration indicates the change in velocity

given the constant velocity in this scenario

a = 0

Thus, in this situation, we find the acceleration to be zero

It’s understood from Newton's second law

F_{net} = ma

where a is equal to 0

F_{net} = 0

F_{net} = F_g - F_b

Here, the force due to gravity

equals the force due to buoyancy

F_gHence, we can deduce

F_b

therefore

F_g - F_b = 0

as such the upward force is counteracted by the downward force.
