Kinetic Energy of an object is the measure of the work an object can do by virtue of its motions..

Formula - KE = 1/2 mv^2

Where KE is the kinetic energy, m is the body’s mass, and v is the body’s velocity.

Potential energy is the stored energy in any object or system by virtue of its position or arrangement of parts..

Formula - W = mgh

Where,

. m is the mass in kilograms

. g is the acceleration due to gravity

. h is the height in meters

billy bob joe's truck has a mass of 3,800 g and an acceleration of 4.5 m/s^2. what is the force of the truck? (you will have to

maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

3800 g = 3.8 kg

We have

force = 3.8 × 4.5

We have the final answer as

Answer:

The doorbell transforms electrical energy into sound.

Explanation:

The doorbell MAY turn electrical energy into motion of a striker which then impacts a resonator creating sound. However all door bells do not have solenoids. Some are electronic playing recordings when activated.

All doorbells do produce sound, though.

A 54 kg person stands on a uniform 20 kg, 4.1 m long ladder resting against a frictionless wall.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

A) Force of the wall on the ladder: 186.3 N

B) Normal force of the ground on the ladder: 725.2 N

C) Minimum value of the coefficient of friction: 0.257

D) Minimum absolute value of the coefficient of friction: 0.332

Explanation:

The free-body diagram of the problem is in attachment (please rotate the picture 90 degrees clockwise). We have the following forces:

$W=mg$ : weight of the ladder, with m = 20 kg (mass) and $g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity)

$W_M=Mg$ : weight of the person, with M = 54 kg (mass)

$N_1$ : normal reaction exerted by the wall on the ladder

$N_2$ : normal reaction exerted by the floor on the ladder

$F_f = \mu N_2$ : force of friction between the floor and the ladder, with $\mu$ (coefficient of friction)

Also we have:

L = 4.1 m (length of the ladder)

d = 3.0 m (distance of the man from point A)

Taking the equilibrium of moments about point A:

$W\frac{L}{2}sin 21^{\circ}+W_M dsin 21^{\circ} = N_1 Lsin 69^{\circ}$

where

$Wsin 21^{\circ}$ is the component of the weight of the ladder perpendicular to the ladder

$W_M sin 21^{\circ}$ is the component of the weight of the man perpendicular to the ladder

$N_1 sin 69^{\circ}$ is the component of the normal force perpendicular to the ladder

And solving for $N_1$ , we find the force exerted by the wall on the ladder:

$N_1 = \frac{W}{2}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}+W_M \frac{d}{L}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}=\frac{mg}{2}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}+Mg\frac{d}{L}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}=\frac{(20)(9.8)}{2}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}+(54)(9.8)\frac{3.0}{4.1}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}=186.3 N$

Here we want to find the magnitude of the normal force of the ground on the ladder, therefore the magnitude of $N_2$ .

We can do it by writing the equation of equilibrium of the forces along the vertical direction: in fact, since the ladder is in equilibrium the sum of all the forces acting in the vertical direction must be zero.

Therefore, we have:

$\sum F_y = 0\\N_2 - W - W_M =0$

And substituting and solving for N2, we find:

$N_2 = W+W_M = mg+Mg=(20)(9.8)+(54)(9.8)=725.2 N$

Here we have to find the minimum value of the coefficient of friction so that the ladder does not slip.

The ladder does not slip if there is equilibrium in the horizontal direction also: that means, if the sum of the forces acting in the horizontal direction is zero.

Therefore, we can write:

$\sum F_x = 0\\F_f - N_1 = 0$

And re-writing the equation,

$\mu N_2 -N_1 = 0\\\mu = \frac{N_1}{N_2}=\frac{186.3}{725.2}=0.257$

So, the minimum value of the coefficient of friction is 0.257.

Here we want to find the minimum coefficient of friction so the ladder does not slip for any location of the person on the ladder.

From part C), we saw that the coefficient of friction can be written as

$\mu = \frac{N_1}{N_2}$

This ratio is maximum when N1 is maximum. From part A), we see that the expression for N1 was

$N_1 = \frac{W}{2}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}+W_M \frac{d}{L}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}$

We see that this quantity is maximum when d is maximum, so when

d = L

Which corresponds to the case in which the man stands at point B, causing the maximum torque about point A. In this case, the value of N1 is:

$N_1 = \frac{W}{2}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}+W_M \frac{L}{L}\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}=\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}(\frac{W}{2}+W_M)$

And substituting, we get

$N_1=\frac{sin 21^{\circ}}{sin 69^{\circ}}(\frac{(20)(9.8)}{2}+(54)(9.8))=240.8 N$

And therefore, the minimum coefficient of friction in order for the ladder not to slip is

$\mu=\frac{N_1}{N_2}=\frac{240.8}{725.2}=0.332$
