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

What is a centripetal acceleration of a point on a bicycle wheel of a radius of 0.70 m when a bike is moving 8.0 m/s
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The acceleration of a point on the wheel is 11.43 m/s² acting radially inward.

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration acts on a body when it is performing a circular motion.

Here, a point on the bicycle is performing circular motion as the rotation of the wheel produces a circular motion.

The centripetal acceleration of a point moving with a velocity v and at a distance of r from the axis of rotation is given as:

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

Here, v=8\ m/s,r=0.70\ m

∴ a=\frac{8}{0.70}=11.43\ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of a point on the wheel is 11.43 m/s² acting radially inward.

SOH-CAH-TOA is used to solve for the ________
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

c. initial (x and y)

Explanation:

When a projectile is launched at a velocity with a launch angle, to solve it, we must first resolve the initial velocity into the x and y components. To do this will mean we have to treat it like a triangle due to the launch angle and the direction of the projectile.

Therefore, we will have to make use of trigonometric ratios which is also known by the mnemonic "SOH CAH TOA"

Thus, this method resolves the initial x and y velocities.

A 22kg Accelerates at a rate of 2.3 m/s. What is the magnitude of the net force acting on the bike?
Tcecarenko [31]

magnitude of the net force = mass x acceleraton

                                             = 22 x 2.3

                                             =50.6 N
