(a) The acceleration of the salt shaker is 1.18 m/s².

(b) The distance traveled by the baseball player before coming to rest is 204.1 m.

<h3>Acceleration of the salt shaker</h3>

The acceleration of the salt shaker at the given coefficient of kinetic friction is determined as follows;

a = μg

a = 0.12 x 9.8

a = 1.18 m/s²

Acceleration of the baseball player is calculated as follows;

a = μg

a = 0.4 x 9.8

a = 3.92 m/s²

<h3>Distance traveled by the baseball player</h3>

The distance traveled by the baseball player before coming to rest is calculated as follows;

v² = u² - 2as

0 = 40² - 2(3.92)s

0 = 1600 - 7.84s

7.84s = 1600

s = 204.1 m

The complete question is below:

A baseball player slides into third base with an initial speed of 40 m/s. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the player and the ground is 0.40, how far does the player slide before coming to rest?

Gravitational forces is ------ force​
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Gravitational force is <u>noncontact</u> force

Explanation:

Contact force occurs due to the contact between two different objects. Non-contact force occurs due to either attraction or repulsion between two objects such that there is no contact between these objects. There is no field linked with the contact force. ... Gravitational force is an example of a non-contact force.

If two particles have equal charges and are placed near one another, how
navik [9.2K]

Answer: C) The two particles will move away from each other

Explanation:

When two electrically charged bodies come closer, appears a force that attracts or repels them, depending on the sign of the charges of this two bodies.

This is stated by Coulomb's Law:

"The electrostatic force F_{E} between two point charges q_{1} and q_{2} is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance d that separates them, and has the direction of the line that joins them"  

Mathematically this law is written as:  

F_{E}= K\frac{q_{1}.q_{2}}{d^{2}}  

Where K is a proportionality constant.  

Now, if q_{1} and q_{2} have the same sign charge (both positive or both negative), a repulsive force will act on these charges.

Joe drove at the speed of 45 miles per hour for a certain distance. He then drove at the speed of 55 miles per hour for the same
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

v_{avg} = 49.5 mph

Explanation:

Let the distance moved by Joe is "d"

so the time taken by him to drove it by speed 45 mph is given as

t_1 = \frac{d}{v_1}

t_1 = \frac{d}{45}

now the same distance is traveled by him with speed 55 mph

so the time taken by him

t_2 = \frac{d}{55}

so total time taken by him for complete distance 2d

t = t_1 + t_2

t = \frac{d}{45} + \frac{d}{55}

t = 0.0404 d

now the average speed is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{2d}{t}

v_{avg} = \frac{2d}{0.0404d}

v_{avg} = 49.5 mph
