The researchers devised a second procedure to measure static friction. They removed the string from a block, placed the block at

rest on a board, and raised one end of the board until the block began to slide. To determine the static friction force on the block when sliding began, which of the following measurements did they make?A) Time it took for the block to slide down the boardB) Distance the block slid down the board before coming to rest C) Mass of the board D) Angle of the board with respect to the horizontal

Answer:d

Explanation:

To determine the static friction researchers must measure the angle of the board with respect to the horizontal.

Block will be at rest up to a particular angle but as soon as the sin component of weight goes beyond the value of static friction it started slipping.

At limiting point

coefficient of the static friction will be equal to the tangent of angle of inclination

The temperature and pressure at the surface of Mars during a Martian spring day were determined to be -50 °C and 900 Pa, respect
Sidana [21]

Answer:

T = 273 + (-50) = 273 – 50 = 223 K

R = 188.82 J / kg K for CO2

Density (Martian Atmosphere) = P / RT = 900 / 188.92 x 223 = 900 / 42129.16 = 0.0213 kg / m^{3}

T = 273 +18 = 291 K, R = 287 J / kg k (for air) P = 101.6 k Pa = 101600 Pa

Density (Earth Atmosphere) = P / RT = 101600 / 287 x 291 = 1.216 kg / m^{3}

Karen is running forward at a speed of 9 m/s. She tosses her sweaty headband backward at a speed of 20 m/s. The speed of the hea
Komok [63]
Let Karen's forward speed be considered as positive.
Therefore, before the headband is tossed backward, the speed of the headband is
V = 9 m/s

The headband is tossed backward relative to Karen at a speed of 20 m/s. Therefore the speed of the headband relative to Karen is
U = -20 m/s

The absolute speed of the headband, relative to a stationary observer is
V - U
= 9 + (-20)
= - 11 m/s

Answer:
The stationary observes the headband traveling (in the opposite direction to Karen) at a speed of 11 m/s backward.

An amusement park ride raises people high into the air, suspends them for a moment, and then drops them at a rate of free-fall a
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: apparent weighlessness.


Explanation:


1) Balance of forces on a person falling:


i) To answer this question we will deal with the assumption of non-drag force (abscence of air).


ii) When a person is dropped, and there is not air resistance, the only force acting on the person's body is the Earth's gravitational attraction (downward), which is the responsible for the gravitational acceleration (around 9.8 m/s²).


iii) Under that sceneraio, there is not normal force acting on the person (the normal force is the force that the floor or a chair exerts on a body to balance the gravitational force when the body is on it).


2) This is, the person does not feel a pressure upward, which is he/she does not feel the weight: freefalling is a situation of apparent weigthlessness.


3) True weightlessness is when the object is in a place where there exists not grativational acceleration: for example a point between two planes where the grativational forces are equal in magnitude but opposing in direction and so they cancel each other.


Therefore, you conclude that, assuming no air resistance, a person in this ride experiencing apparent weightlessness.

What is Otter's average velocity over his entire trip when it takes him 2 minutes to walk 100 meters north and another 1 minute
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

0.50m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is the change in displacement of a body with respect to time.

Velocity = ∆S/∆t

∆S = 100m - 70m

∆S = 30m

∆t = 2min - 1 min

∆t = 1min = 60secs

Substitute the given parameters into the formula for velocity

Velocity = 30m/60s

Velocity = 1/2 m/s

Average Velocity = 0.5m/s
