A book rests on the shelf of a bookcase. The reaction force to the force of gravity acting on the book is 1. The force of the sh

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

1. The force of the shelf holding the book up.

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the book is as follows:

1 - The weight of the book towards downwards

2 - The normal force that the shelf exerts on the book towards upwards.

Since the book is at rest, these two forces are equal to each other and according to Newton's Third Law the reaction force to the force of gravity is equal but opposite to the weight of the book. This reaction force is the one that holds the book up on the shelf.

The force of friction is 19.1 N

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law, the net force acting on the bag is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:

$\sum F = ma$

where

$\sum F$ is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

The bag is moving at constant speed, so its acceleration is zero:

$a=0$

Therefore the net force is zero as well:

$\sum F = 0$

Here we are interested only in the forces acting along the horizontal direction, therefore the net force is given by:

$\sum F = F cos \theta - F_f = 0$

where

$F cos \theta$ is the horizontal component of the applied force, with

F = 22.5 N

$\theta=32.0^{\circ}$

$F_f$ is the force of friction

And solving for $F_f$ , we find

$F_f =Fcos \theta=(22.5)(cos 32.0^{\circ})=19.1 N$

Discuss how the hardness or softness of the landing surface is related to the time required to stop the egg

monitta

Answer

To understand this concept it is necessary to understand Newton's Second Law

According to Newtons Second law applied force is equal to rate of change of momentum of a body.

Mathematically,

$F=\frac{dp}{dt}$

here, $\frac{dp}{dt}$ is rate of change of momentum with respect to time

It means If two eggs fall from same height,one on softer surface and other on hard surface that time the momentum of both eggs will remain equal at both the surfaces. But, impact time will be different. On hard surface egg will stop almost instantly so impact time will be small and hence the force on egg will be large therefore the egg will breakup.

On the other hand on the soft surface like a cotton, egg will not stop instantly but it will slow down for a few seconds and then stop due to which the time of impact will increase. Therefore the force on egg will be less and it won't break up.

Consider a double-slit with a distance between the slits of 0.04 mm and slit width of 0.01 mm. Suppose the screen is a distance

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slits = 0.04 mm

Width = 0.01 mm

Distance between the slits and screen = 1 m

Wavelength = 600 nm

We need to calculate the distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

For constructive fringe

First minima from center

$x_{1}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}$

Second minima from center

$x_{2}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}$

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

$\Delta x_{d}=x_{2}-x_{1}$

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}-\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}$

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{600\times10^{-9}\times1}{0.04\times10^{-3}}$

$\Delta x_{d}=0.015 =15\times10^{-3}\ m$

$\Delta x_{d}=15\ mm$

Hence, The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.
