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

A ball is thrown straight down with a speed of Va2.00 from a building 40.00 meters high. How much S time passes before the ball

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Considering vertical motion of ball:-

Initial velocity, u = 2 m/s

Acceleration , a = 9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = 40 m

We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

40 = 2 x t + 0.5 x 9.81 x t²

4.9t² + 2t - 40 = 0

t = 2.66 s or t = -3.06 s

So, time is 2.66 s.

Option C is the correct answer.

The flywheel of an engine has moment of inertia 2.50 kg m2 about its rotation axis. What constant torque is required to bring it

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The moment of inertia is $I = 2.50 \ kg \cdot m^2$

The final angular speed is $w_f = 400 rev/min = \frac{400 * 2\pi}{60} = 41.89 \ rad/s$

The time taken is $t = 8.0 s$

The initial angular speed is $w_i = 0\ rad/s$

Generally the average angular acceleration is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = \frac{w_f - w_i }{t}$

=> $\alpha = \frac{41.89}{8}$

=> $\alpha = 5.24 \ rad/s^2$

Generally the torque is mathematically represented as

$\tau = I * \alpha$

=> $\tau = 5.24 * 2.50$

=> $\tau = 13.09 \ N \cdot m$

The diagram shows a ballistic pendulum. A 200 g bullet is fired into the suspended 4 kg block of wood and remains embedded insid

adoni [48]

Question

What was the initial momentum of the bullet before collision?

Answer:

10 Kg.m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is a product of velocity of an object in m/s and its mass in kgs hence numerically expressed as p=mv where p is momentum, v is velocity and m is mass. Substituting m for 0.2 kg and v for 50 m/s then p=0.2*50=10 kg.m/s

Answer:

Energy due to air resistance = 31.8 Joules

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another

Kinetic Energy + Energy due to air resistance = Potential energy..........(1)

If there is no energy loss due to air resistance, potential energy = kinetic energy

mass, m = 1.5 kg

height, h = 4.0 m

speed, v = 6 m/s

Kinetic energy = 0.5 mv²

Kinetic energy = 0.5 * 1.5 * 6²

Kinetic energy = 27 Joules

Potential Energy = mgh

Potential energy = 1.5 * 9.8 * 4

Potential energy = 58.8 Joules

From equation (1)

27 + Energy due to air resistance = 58.8

Energy due to air resistance = 58.8 - 27

Energy due to air resistance = 31.8 Joules
