The coefficient of friction is 0.5.

<h3>What is Coefficient of friction?</h3>

The ratio of friction force to normal force is known as the coefficient of friction (COF), which has no dimensions. Those materials are said to as lubricous if their COF is less than 0.1. Surface roughness and COF are dependent on the composition of the materials.

Initial velocity, u=30m/s

time taken = 6s

Final velocity, v=0

Acceleration of friction, a=μg=10μms⁻²

Apply first kinematic equation of motion,

v - u = at

0 - 30 = (-10μms⁻²) × 6

-30 = -60μ

μ = 1/2

μ = 0..5  

Hence, coefficient of friction is 0.5

vector u has a magnitude of 20 and direction of 0°.vector v has amagnitude of 40and a direction of 60°.find the magnitude and di
pantera1 [17]

Addition of vectors:

vector u

has a magnitude of 20 and a direction of 0º with respect to the horizontal, vector v has a magnitude of 40 and a direction of 60º with respect to the horizontal.

a) Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant to the nearest whole

number.

Vector Sum:

The resultant of two vectors is simply the vector sum of the vectors. There are a handful of ways to present the resultant factor; the notation that shows the vector magnitude and direction is called the polar vector notation. An example of a vector presented in polar vector notation is

a∠θ where a is the magnitude and θis the angle that the vector makes with the horizontal axis.

Answer and Explanation:

Let's first present the vectors in rectangular vector notation.

For the vector →u of magnitude 20 and direction 0∘ to the horizontal axis, the vector is →u=^i20.

For the vector →v

of magnitude 40 and direction 60∘ to the horizontal axis, the vector is →v=^i40cos60∘+^j40sin60∘.

The resultant vector →w is the vector sum of the vectors, i.e.

→w=→u+→v

=^i20+^i40cos60∘+^j40sin60∘

=^i(20+40cos60∘)+^j(40sin60∘)

=^i40+^j20√3

For a vector ^ix+^jy, the magnitude of the vector is √x2+y2 and the direction above the horizontal axis is θ=tan−1(yx).

Let's use the formulas:

|→w|∠θ=√(40)2+(20√3)2∠tan−1(20√340)≈52.9∠40.9∘

The magnitude of the vector is about 53 units in the direction 41-degrees above the horizontal axis.

An apple dropped from the branch of a tree hits the ground in 0.5 s. If the acceleration of the apple during its motion is 10 ms
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Given that,

Time = 0.5 s

Acceleration = 10 m/s²

(I). We need to calculate the speed of apple

Using equation of motion

v=u+at

Where, v = speed

u = initial speed

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v=0+10\times0.5

v=5\ m/s

(III). We need to calculate the height of the branch of the tree from the ground

Using equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Put the value into the formula

s=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times10\times(0.5)^2

s=1.25\ m

(II). We need to calculate the average velocity during 0.5 sec

Using formula of average velocity

v_{avg}=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{x_{f}-x_{i}}{t_{f}-t_{0}}

Where, x_{f}= final position

x_{i} = initial position

Put the value into the formula

v_{avg}=\dfrac{1.25+0}{0.5}

v_{avg}=2.5\ m/s

Hence, (I). The speed of apple is 5 m/s.

(II). The average velocity during 0.5 sec is 2.5 m/s

(III). The height of the branch of the tree from the ground is 1.25 m.

A clock moves past you at a speed of 0.9 c. How much time passes for you for each second that elapses on the moving clock?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Explanation:

Time dilation formula is

T = T₀ / √ 1-v²/c²

T₀ is time elapsed in moving reference , T time elapsed in stationary reference.

Here T₀ = 1 second

T = 1/√ 1-0.9² = 1/.4358 = 2.3 second

So 2.3 second will pass for each second on moving reference.
