Compared with the car, the truck will travel four times as far.

The initial velocity of car and truck, u = 0

The acceleration of both the truck and car = a

The length of time for the acceleration = t

Let the time the truck accelerated be 2t

<h3>How to calculate the distance traveled by car and truck?</h3>

The distance traveled by car is calculated as;

s = ut + ¹/₂at²

s₁ = 0(t) + ¹/₂at²

s₁ = ¹/₂at²

The distance traveled by truck

s = ut + ¹/₂at²

s₂ = 0(2t) + ¹/₂a (2t)²

s₂ =  ¹/₂a x 4t²

s₂ = 4 (¹/₂at²)

s₂ = 4(s₁)

We can conclude that the Truck distance is four times the car distance.

Therefore, Compared with the car, the truck will travel four times as far.

A small box of mass m1 is sitting on a board of mass m2 and length L. The board rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The constant force with least magnitude that must be applied to the board in order to pull the board out from under the box is \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right){\mu _{\rm{s}}}

Explanation:

The Newton’s second law states that the net force on an object is the product of mass of the object and final acceleration of the object. The expression of newton’s second law is,

\sum {F = ma}

Here, is the sum of all the forces on the object, mm is mass of the object, and aa is the acceleration of the object.

The expression for static friction over a horizontal surface is,

F_{\rm{f}}} \leq {\mu _{\rm{s}}}mg

Here, {\mu _{\rm{s}}} is the coefficient of static friction, mm is mass of the object, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Use the expression of static friction and solve for maximum static friction for box of mass {m_1}

Substitute  for in the expression of maximum static friction {F_{\rm{f}}} = {\mu _{\rm{s}}}mg

{F_{\rm{f}}} = {\mu _{\rm{s}}}{m_1}g

Use the Newton’s second law for small box and solve for minimum acceleration aa to pull the box out.

Substitute  for , [/tex]{m_1}[/tex] for in the equation .

{F_{\rm{f}}} = {m_1}a

Substitute {\mu _{\rm{s}}}{m_1}g for {F_{\rm{f}}} in the equation {F_{\rm{f}}} = {m_1}a

{\mu _{\rm{s}}}{m_1}g = {m_1}a

Rearrange for a.

a = {\mu _{\rm{s}}}g

The minimum acceleration of the system of two masses at which box starts sliding can be calculated by equating the pseudo force on the mass with the maximum static friction force.

The pseudo force acts on in the direction opposite to the motion of the board and the static friction force on this mass acts in the direction opposite to the pseudo force. If these two forces are cancelled each other (balanced), then the box starts sliding.

Use the Newton’s second law for the system of box and the board.

Substitute for for in the equation .

{F_{\min }} = \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right)a

Substitute for in the above equation .

{F_{\min }} = \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right){\mu _{\rm{s}}}g

The constant force with least magnitude that must be applied to the board in order to pull the board out from under the box is \left( {{m_1} + {m_2}} \right){\mu _{\rm{s}}}g

There is no friction between the board and the surface. So, the force required to accelerate the system with the minimum acceleration to slide the box over the board is equal to total mass of the board and box multiplied by the acceleration of the system.

How do interest groups and PACs keep us from
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Interest groups help democracy because they represent the interests of such large numbers of people and encourage political participation by many groups. The stable, cooperative relationship often develops among a congressional committee, an administrative agency, and one or more supportive interest groups.

Interest groups try to influence the government to adopt legislation that would benefit them. Email, letter, faxes, phone calls, providing research and information (to bring about change by proving your cause with facts by funded research).
