Situation 6.1 A 13.5-kg box slides over a rough patch 1.75 m long on a horizontal floor. Just before entering the rough patch, t

he speed of the box was 2.25 m/s, and just after leaving it, the speed of the box was 1.20 m/s. In Situation 6.1, the magnitude of the average force that friction on the rough patch exerts on the box is closest to:
A) 19.5 N
B) 14.0 N
C) 13.7 N
D) 5.55 N
E) It is impossible to know since we are not given the coefficient of kinetic friction

B) 14.0 N    

The way to solve this problem is to determine the kinetic energy the box had before and after the rough patch of floor. The equation for kinetic energy is: 

 E = 0.5 M V^2 

 where 

 E = Energy 

 M = Mass 

 V = velocity   

 Substituting the known values, let's calculate the before and after energy. 

 Before: 

 E = 0.5 M V^2 

 E = 0.5 13.5kg (2.25 m/s)^2 

 E = 6.75 kg 5.0625 m^2/s^2 

 E = 34.17188 kg*m^2/s^2 = 34.17188 joules   

 After: 

 E = 0.5 M V^2 

 E = 0.5 13.5kg (1.2 m/s)^2 

 E = 6.75 kg 1.44 m^2/s^2 

 E = 9.72 kg*m^2/s^2 = 9.72 Joules   

 So the box lost 34.17188 J - 9.72 J = 24.451875 J of energy over a distance of 1.75 meters. Let's calculate the loss per meter by dividing the loss by the distance.   

 24.451875 J / 1.75 m = 13.9725 J/m = 13.9725 N   

 Rounding to 1 decimal place gives 14.0 N which matches option "B".

Is direction the length of the route between two points ?
zepelin [54]

Answer:

No distance is the length between two routes

Explanation:

Distance is the length of the route between two points. ... Direction is just as important as distance in describing motion. A vector is a quantity that has both size and direction. It can be used to represent the distance and direction of motion.

How is the radiating electric field (or electromagnetic signal) produced when radio stations broadcast
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Radio stations have dipole type antennas

this field increases in intensity and propagates outwards,

Explanation:

Radio stations have dipole type antennas, that is, all sides are isolated from each other, when the AC signal from the radio station arrives, the lcharge begins at times and by the Lens law a field appears that opposes this movement, this field increases in intensity and propagates outwards, when the voltage reaches a maximum, the generated wave also reaches the maximum, now the incident wave begins to decrease, an electric hand appears to oppose this prisoner, and in this way a cap is created. electric .

A depiction of a famous scientific experiment is given. Consider how the beam changes when the magnet is off compared to when th
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of

v = E / B

Explanation:

After reading this long statement we can extract the data to work on the problem.

* They indicate that when the beam passes through the plates it deviates towards the positive plate, so the beam must be negative electrons.

* Now indicates that the electric field and the magnetic field are contracted and that the beam passes without deviating, so the electric and magnetic forces must be balanced

           F_{e} =  F_{m}

           q E = qv B

           v = E / B

this configuration is called speed selector

They ask us what type of beam was used.

The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of v = E / B
