A block of the periodic table is a set of elements unified by the orbitals their valence electrons or vacancies lie in. The term appears to have been first used by Charles Janet. Each block is named after its characteristic orbital: s-block, p-block, d-block, and f-block.
The block names (s, p, d, and f) are derived from the spectroscopic notation for the value of an electron's azimuthal quantum number: sharp (0), principal (1), diffuse (2), or fundamental (3). Succeeding notations proceed in alphabetical order, as g, h, etc.
Hello! I am stuck on part of a problem and was wondering what I am doing wrong. For part a of the problem, we were asked to find the impact speed. I did this in a photo below given the following values:
Θ = 30 degrees. The initial velocity = 10 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.4...
Hi everyone, just a quick question..
I tried this problem using Newtons laws, not conservation of energy, and I got an answer exactly half of what the correct answer is, and I'm not sure why. Here is what I did:
Net force = zero once the spring is compressed, therefore
mg - kx = 0
mg = kx...
(a) Ridiculously simple though it looks, I can't see how the string will be tight. One of the two has to be true.
(1) The static friction ##f_S = mg \sin\theta = 25\times 10\times \sin 30^{\circ} = 122.5\; \text{N} ##. The maximum static friction ##f_S = \mu mg \cos \theta = 0.6\times 25\times...
Force along the horizontal would be
T cos(theta)
Frictional force (which is in the opposite direction )= μmg
So net force in the direction of velocity = Tcos(theta)-μmg
P= [Tcos(theta)-μmg]v
But this is not so, the right answer is given to be Tvcos(theta). Why should we not consider the...
I called the block ##A## and ##B## the cylinder. For ##A##, in the non inertial system I wrote
##x) Fr_d -F=0##
##y) R-W_1=0##
Where ##Fr_d## is the kinetic friction and ##R## the normal force on ##A##
Then, I know that:
##a_{B/A}=a_B-a_A##
##0=a_B -a_A##
##a_A=a_B##
##v_{B/A}=v_B-v_A##...
I have some difficulties trying to understand non-inertial frames.
I have problems to notice the acceleration in these cases, from an inertial reference frame and from non inertial refrence frame.

I considered the downwards direction and left direction as negative. For ##m_1##, Newton's equations are:
##x) Fr + W_x - T=0##
##y) N - W_y =0##
For ##m_2##:
##y) T - W =0##
Then, if I replace the data, I get ##T=22.2 N## and then ##m_2=2.2 kg##.
With that, for the second question ##m_2=4.4...
Well, I'm having trouble with the free body diagrams. For ##A## we have
##y)## weight, normal force, contact force with ##B##, ##F . sin(36.8°)##. And the acceleration is ##0## because we want to calculate the maximun force before moving.
##\Sigma \vec F = m . a_y##

This is what happen to an aluminum block when a 0.5 ounce piece of plastic hits it at a speed 15,000mph in space.
That's some serious impact! Just imagine what a heavier object could do traveling at the same speed.
Question as follows:
My answer/explanation:
Force needed to make block slide = static friction between block and plate.
So friction = normal of block * static friction = (0.5∗9.8)∗0.9=4.41N(0.5∗9.8)∗0.9=4.41N
My thoughts/wrong answer probably?: after block slips, plate experience

Consider a block on a sheet of paper. If the sheet is pulled without sliding the block, who has done work on the block (since it has undergone a kinetic energy variation)? I can not see another force doing work other than the static frictional force on the block.
W_net = Integral from 0 to 0.70 meters [ - F_spring - F_friction ]
= 1/2 * (-k) * x^2 - mu * mg * normal force * x
= 1/2 * (-325N/m) * (.70)^2 - 0.250 * 6kg * 9.81m/s^2 * 0.70 - 0
= - 89.93 Joules
