Answer:

A. <u>The water decreases the friction between the floor and the feet </u>

Explanation: Think about it like this, when your in the shower and water is on your skin, you can scrub it fluidly, but when the water dries in your towel, there is more friction when your rub your skin, this is because the molecules in water aren't as compact as solids, so anything acting against it, is most likely to disperse from it.

In the sum of 54.34 and 45.66, the number of significant figure for the<br>answer is​
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

54.34+45.66=100.00 (you have to use the .00 because when you add to numbers you keep the number of decimals)

so you get 100.00

all numbers that are not 0 are sig figs so 1 is a sig fig

If a number ends with a 0 after a decimal place that 0 is a sig fig

all numbers between two sig figs are sig figs so that would make all of the numbers sig figs

Inductive charging is used to wirelessly charge electronic devices ranging from toothbrushes to cell phones. Suppose the base un
denpristay [2]

Answer:

1.2*10^{-6}s

Explanation:

The problem must be addressed through the concepts of electromotive force. By Faraday's law it is defined that

\epsilon = NA \frac{dB}{dt}

Where

\epsilon = Electromotive Force

N = Number of Loops

A = Area

B = Magnetic Field (chaging through the time)

From this equation and our values, we need to find the time, then we re-arrange the equation

dt = NA \frac{dB}{\epsilon}

t = (16)(2.75*10^{-4})\frac{1.50*10^{-3}}{5.50}

t = 1.2*10^{-6}s

Therefore the time required for the magnetic field to decrease to zero from its maximum value is 1.2*10^{-6}s

A solid, uniform disk of mass M and radius a may be rotated about an axis parallel to the disk axis, at variable distances from
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

the function varies linearly with the radius of the disk, so the smallest period is zero for a radius of zero centimeters

Explanation:

This system performs a simple harmonic movement where the angular velocity is given by

         w = √ k / I

Where k is the constant recovered from the axis of rotation and I is the moment of inertia of the disk

The expression for the moment of inertia is

           I = 1/2 m r²

Angular velocity, frequency and period are related

         w = 2π f = 2π / T

Substituting

             2π / T = √ k / I

             T = 2π √ I / k

             T = 2π √ (½ m r² / k)

             T = (2π √m / 2k)   r

 

We can see that the function varies linearly with the radius of the disk, so the smallest period is zero for a radius of zero centimeters

Intensity: Radiation of a single frequency reaches the upper atmosphere of the earth with an intensity of 1350 W/m2. What is the
sesenic [268]

Answer:

The right answer is "1010 V/m".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Intensity,

I=1350 \ W/m^2

c = 3.00\times 108 \ m/s

\mu_0= 4\pi\times 10^{-7} \ T.m/A

Now,

The electric field's maximum value will be:

=  \sqrt{2\times u\times c\times I}

On substituting the values in the above formula, we get

=  \sqrt{2\times 4\times \pi\times 10^{-7}\times 3\times 10^8\times 1350}

=  \sqrt{32400\times 3.14\times 10^{-7}\times 10^8}

=  1010 \ V/m

If a force always acts perpendicular to an object's direction of motion, that force cannot change the object's kinetic energy.
laiz [17]
This is very good conceptual question and can clear your doubts regarding work-energy theorem.
Whenever force is perpendicular to the direction of the motion, work done by that force is zero.
According to work-energy theorem,
Work done by all the force = change in kinetic energy.

here, work done = 0.
Therefore, 
0=change in kinetic energy
This means kinetic energy remains constant.
Hope this helps
