Chapter 12, Problem 1P

(a)

To determine

Whether the given statement is true or false.

(a)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 1P

False.

Explanation of Solution

If an object is to be in equilibrium, the net force as well as net torque about any point must be zero. It is not sufficient that only net force is zero.

Conclusion:

Thus, the given statement is false.

(b)

To determine

Whether the given statement is true or false.

(b)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 1P

True

Explanation of Solution

If an object is to be in equilibrium, the net force as well as net torque about any point must be zero. It is not sufficient that only net force is zero but it is necessary that it is zero.

Conclusion:

The given statement is true.

(c)

To determine

Whether the given statement is true or false.

(c)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 1P

True

Explanation of Solution

If an object is to be in equilibrium, the net force as well as net torque about any point must be zero. This means τ=0 .

Conclusion:

The given statement is true.

(d)

To determine

Whether the given statement is true or false.

(d)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 1P

False

Explanation of Solution

If an object is to be in equilibrium, the net force as well as net torque about any point must be zero.

This does not mean that the object is at rest. It could be at rest or moving with constant velocity or rotating with constant angular speed.

Conclusion:

The given statement is false.

What is the error determined by the 2/3 rule?
Your colleague gives you a sample that are supposed to consist of Pt-Ni nanoparticles, TiO2 nanorod arrays, and SiO2 monolith plates (see right panel schematic). The bimetallic Pt-Ni nanoparticles are expected to decorate on the side surfaces of the aligned TiO2 nanorod arrays. These aligned TiO2 nanoarrays grew on the flat SiO2 monolith. Let's assume that the sizes of the Pt-Ni nanoparticles are > 10 nm. We further assume that you have access to a modern SEM that can produce a probe size as small as 1 nm with a current as high as 1 nA. You are not expected to damage/destroy the sample. Hint: keep your answers concise and to the point. TiO₂ Nanorods SiO, monolith a) What do you plan to do if your colleague wants to know if the Pt and Ni formed uniform alloy nanoparticles? (5 points) b) If your colleague wants to know the spatial distribution of the PtNi nanoparticles with respect to the TiO2 nanoarrays, how do you accomplish such a goal? (5 points) c) Based on the experimental results…
