While the cart is moving along an aisle, it comes in contact with a smear of margarine that had recently been dropped on the flo

or. Suddenly the friction force is reduced for -40.0 newtons to -20.0 newtons. What is the net force on the cart if the "pushing force" remains at 40.0 newtons? Does the grocery cart move at constant velocity over the spilled maragine?

Answer:

No, the velocity of the grocery cart will not remain constant, but instead will increase continuously

Explanation:

No the grocery cart will not move at constant velocity over the spilled maragine because as the frictional force is changed to - 20 N, the net force will not be equal to zero

Net force on the cart when frictional force is changed to - 20 N is 40 - 20 N = 20 N

As the force is positive, it means that the force is acting in the direction of motion of the cart and will increase the velocity of the cart as the force is acting in the direction of motion

∴ The velocity of the cart will not remain constant instead it will increase

e-lub [12.9K]

The minimum input force she'll need to lift the ball is 35 N.

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage of a single pulley is 1. As, she applies 70 N of force to lift the bowling ball, so the output force(weight of the ball) is also 70 N.

Now, adding another pulley gives a mechanical advantage of 2. We have,

M.A = (Output Force)/(Input Force)

Substituting the values we get,

2=\frac{70}{F_{i}}

F_{i}=\frac{70}{2} = 35 N

Input force equals to 35 N needs to be applied.

<h2>Answer: 117.626m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The escape velocity V_{esc} is given by the following equation:

V_{esc}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}   (1)

Where:

G is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}

M  is the mass of the asteroid

R  is the radius of the asteroid

On the other hand, we know the density of the asteroid is \rho=3.84(10)^{8}g/m^{3} and its volume is V=2.17(10)^{12}m^{3}.

The density of a body is given by:

\rho=\frac{M}{V}  (2)

Finding M:

M=\rhoV=(3.84(10)^{8} g/m^{3})(2.17(10)^{12}m^{3})  (3)

M=8.33(10)^{20}g=8.33(10)^{17}kg  (4)  This is the mass of the spherical asteroid

In addition, we know the volume of a sphere is given by the following formula:

V=\frac{4}{3}\piR^{3}   (5)

Finding R:

R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi}}   (6)

R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3(2.17(10)^{12}m^{3})}{4\pi}}   (7)

R=8031.38m   (8)  This is the radius of the asteroid

Now we have all the necessary elements to calculate the escape velocity from (1):

V_{esc}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(8.33(10)^{17}kg)}{8031.38m}}   (9)

Finally:

V_{esc}=117.626m/s This is the minimum initial speed the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never return back to the asteroid.

Two strings are respectively 1.00 m and 2.00 m long. Which of the following wavelengths, in meters, could represent harmonics pr
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

5) 4.00, 2.00, 1.0

Explanation:

wave equation is given as;

F₀ = V / λ

Where;

F₀ is the fundamental frequency = first harmonic

Length of the string for first harmonic is given as;

L₀ = (¹/₂) λ  

λ  = 2 L₀

when L₀ = 1

λ  = 2 x 1 = 2m

when L₀ = 2m

λ  = 2 x 2 = 4m

For First harmonic, the wavelength is 2m, 4m

For second harmonic;

L₁ = (²/₂)λ  

L₁ = λ

When L₁ = 1

λ  = 1 m

when L₁ = 2

λ  = 2 m

For second harmonic, the wavelength is 1m, 2m

Thus, the wavelength that could represent harmonics present on both strings is 4m, 2m, 1 m
