The work done by friction to move the sled is  - 1,323 J.

<h3>What is Coefficient of friction?</h3>
  • The friction coefficient is the ratio of the normal force pressing two surfaces together to the frictional force preventing motion between them.
  • Typically, it is represented by the Greek letter µ. In terms of math, is equal to F/N, where F stands for frictional force and N for normal force.
  • The coefficient of friction has no dimensions because both F and N are measured in units of force (such as newtons or pounds). For both static and kinetic friction, the coefficient of friction has a range of values.
  • When an object experiences static friction, the frictional force resists any applied force, causing the object to stay at rest until the static frictional force is removed. The frictional force opposes an object's motion in kinetic friction.

Solution:

Given that

Coefficient of friction (µ) = 0.10

Mass (m) = 90kg

distance covered (d) = 30m

We use the formula:

friction work = -µmgdcos∅

friction work = -0.100 × 90 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 30 m × cos 60°

friction work = - 1,323 J

50 cm to mA flat coil of wire consisting of 20 turns, each with an area of 50 cm2, is positioned perpendicularly to a uniform ma
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

0.025 A

Explanation:

A = 50 cm^2 = 50 x 10^-4 m^2

B2 = 6 T, B1 = 2 T

db = 6 - 2 = 4 T

dt = 2 s

R = 0.4 ohm

Let i be the magnitude of induced current and e be the induced emf.

According to the Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction

e = dФ / dt

e = A dB / dt

e = 50 x 10^-4 x 4 / 2 = 0.01 V

i = e / R = 0.01 / 0.4 = 0.025 A

Which of these chemical equations demonstrates the law of conservation of mass as it applies to the combustion of ethane? A. 2 C
WINSTONCH [101]

A. 2 C₂ H₆ + 7 O₂ → 4 C O₂ + 6 H₂ O


according to law of conservation of mass , the total mass of reactants side must be same as the total mass of product side. so we need to check if each atom in the equation has same number on both side of the equation or not.

in this equation , we have

4 atoms of carbon left and 4 atoms of carbon on right

12 atoms of hydrogen on left and 12 atoms of hydrogen on right

14 atoms of oxygen on left and 14 atoms of oxygen on right

A meter stick is held vertically with one end on the floor and is then allowed to fall. Find the speed of the other end when it
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

5.4 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Here we have to use conservation of energy. Initially when the stick is held vertical, its center of mass is at some height above the ground, hence the stick has some gravitational potential energy. As the stick is allowed to fall, its rotates about one. gravitational potential energy of the stick gets converted into rotational kinetic energy.

L = length of the meter stick = 1 m

m = mass of the meter stick

w = angular speed of the meter stick as it hits the floor

v = speed of the other end of the stick

we know that, linear speed and angular speed are related as

v = r w\\w = \frac{v}{r}

h = height of center of mass of meter stick above the floor = \frac{L}{2} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5 m

I = Moment of inertia of the stick about one end

For a stick, momentof inertia about one end has the formula as

I = \frac{mL^{2} }{3}

Using conservation of energy

Rotational kinetic energy of the stick = gravitational potential energy

(0.5) I w^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{mL^{2} }{3}) (\frac{v}{L} )^{2} = mgh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = gh\\(0.5)(\frac{v^{2} }{3}) = (9.8)(0.5)\\v = 5.4 ms^{-1}

Using this formula Vj = V; + at, If a vehicle starts from rest
Furkat [3]

Answer:

<em>The final speed of the vehicle is 36 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration</u>

When an object changes its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+a.t

Where:

vf  = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a   = Constant acceleration

t   = Elapsed time

The vehicle starts from rest (vo=0) and accelerates at a=4.5 m/s2 for t=8 seconds. The final speed is:

v_f=0+4.5*8

v_f=36\ m/s

The final speed of the vehicle is 36 m/s

At the same moment from the top of a building 3.0 × 10 2 m tall, one rock is dropped and one is thrown downward with an initial
Bess [88]
The equation that relates distance, velocities, acceleration, and time is,
                   d = V₀t + 0.5gt²
where d is distance,
V₀ is the initial velocity,
t is time, and 
g is the acceleration due to gravity (equal to 9.8 m/s²)

(1) Dropped rock,
                  (3 x 10² m ) = 0(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from this equation is 24.73 s

(2) Thrown rock with V₀ = 26 m/s
                (3 x 10² m) = (26)(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from the equation is 5.61 s

The difference between the tim,
        difference = 24.73 s - 5.61 s
          difference = 19.12 s
