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

Discuss why Wolpert says we have a brain.

ycow [4]

Answer:

“We have a brain for one reason and one reason only, and that's to produce adaptable and complex movements,” stated Wolpert, Director of the Computational and Biological Learning Lab at the University of Cambridge. ... The evidence for this is in how well we've learned to mimic our movements using computers and robots.

A 20 metric ton train moves toward the south at 50 m/s. At what speed must it travel to have four times its original momentum

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

200 m/s

Explanation:

as momentum is a product of mass and speed, and mass is not changing, four times the speed will result in four times the momentum.

p = mv

4p = m(4v)

Suppose a yo-yo has a center shaft that has a 0.230 cm radius and that its string is being pulled.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Part a)

$\alpha = 782.6 rad/s^2$

Part B)

$\omega = 587 rad/s$

Part c)

$a_t = 24.3 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that

$a = R \alpha$

so we will have

$a = 1.80 m/s^2$

$R = 0.230 cm$

$\alpha = \frac{a}{R}$

$\alpha = \frac{1.80}{0.230 \times 10^{-2}}$

$\alpha = 782.6 rad/s^2$

Part B)

Angular speed of the yo-yo

$\omega = \alpha t$

so we have

$\omega = 782.6 \times 0.750$

$\omega = 587 rad/s$

Part c)

Tangential acceleration is given as

$a_t = R \alpha$

$a_t = (3.10 \times 10^{-2})(782.6)$

$a_t = 24.3 m/s^2$

When light is incident parallel to the principal axis and then strikes a lens, the light will refract through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens.

To find the answer, we have to know about the rules followed by drawing ray-diagram.

<h3>What are the rules obeyed by light rays?</h3>

If the incident ray is parallel to the principal axis, the refracted ray will pass through the opposite side's focus.
The refracted ray becomes parallel to the major axis if the incident ray passes through the focus.
The refracted ray follows the same path if the incident light passes through the center of the curve.

Thus, we can conclude that, when light is incident parallel to the principal axis and then strikes a lens, the light will refract through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens.
