The total work done on the car is 784Joule.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the car?</h3>
  • As per Newton's equation of motion, V= U+at
  • U= initial velocity= 0 m/s

V= vinal velocity= 20m/s

t= time = 10s

a= acceleration

  • So, 20= 0+ 10a

=> a= 20/10= 2m/s²

<h3>What's the distance covered by the car in 10 seconds?</h3>
  • As per Newton's equation of motion,

V²-U² = 2aS

  • S= distance covered by the car
  • So, 20²-0=2×2×S=4S

=> 400= 4S

=> S= 400/4= 100m

<h3>What's the work done on the car due to frictional force?</h3>

Work done by frictional force= frictional force × distance

= (0.2×4×9.8)×100

= 784Joule

Thus, we can conclude that the work done on the car is 784Joule.

A mass hanging from a spring oscillates with a period of 0.35 s. Suppose the mass and spring are swung in a horizontal circle, w
Annette [7]

Answer:

66 rpm

Explanation:

The period of oscillation is given by

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac {m}{k}}

\frac {k}{m}=\frac {4\pi^{2}}{T^{2}} where  T is time period of oscillation which is given as 0.35 s, k s spring constant and m is the mass of the object attached to the spring.

Also, net force is given by

Net force=m\omega^{2} L

\omega=\sqrt{\frac {k\triangle L}{mL}} where \triangle L is the elongation, L is original length, \omega is the angular velocity

Substituting the equation of \frac {k}{m} into the above we obtain

\omega=\sqrt {\frac {4\pi^{2}\triangle L}{T^{2} L}}

\omega=\sqrt {4\pi^{2}\times 0.15L}{0.35^{2}\times L}}=6.952763\approx 6.95 rad/s

6.95\times\frac {60 s}{2\pi rad}\approx 66 rpm

Nady [450]
Fk = μK N

N = m a

N = 4 × a

N = 4a

Fk = μK N

17 = 5 × 4a

17 = 20 a

a = ¹⁷/₂₀ = 0.85 m/s²

Why were phonograph records placed on the sides of the two voyager spacecraft launched in the 1970s?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The reason for phonograph installation is to provide information about humans to interstellar aliens.

Explanation:

Phonographs are archaic forms of gramophone which are able to record and reproduce sound.Phonographs were used in early days in voyagers to help transmit information about humans to nearby alien species in space.
