an initially stationary box of sand is to be pulled across a floor by means of a cable in which the tension should not exceed 11

00 n. the coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor is 0.35. (a) what should be the angle between the cable and the horizontal in order to pull the greatest possible amount of sand, and (b) what is the weight of the sand and box in that situation?

a. Angle between the cable and the horizontal in order to pull the greatest possible amount of sand is θ= 19.29° b. weight of sand and box is M= 34 kgs where coefficient of static friction is 0.35.

An object experiences static friction when a force is applied to it; as a result, the object resists the applied force and stays at rest until static friction is removed. In kinetic friction, the frictional force opposes an object's motion. While surfaces at rest with respect to one another experience static friction. Static friction is defined as the difference between zero and the minimum force required to initiate motion. The minimum force needed to initiate motion or dissipate static friction is always greater than the coefficient of friction, which is the ratio between the force preventing motion between two surfaces in contact and the normal force holding them together. The Greek letter mu () is commonly used to represent it.

Depends on the weight of the bird.
1) Half a mile is about 800m.
2) 14000 lbs = about 6 tones, same like couple 4WD
3) Fuel consumption is about 20L per 100km or 0.2l each 1km or 0.16L within 800m
4) density of fuel is about 70% of density of water so .... weight of 1.6L of fuel burned would be about 1.6*0.7=1.1 kg

So if birds mass would be below 1 kg - the bridge will not collapse. But if it would be a pelican with the mass of 9kg - it would be a drama :)

Tidal friction is slowing the rotation of the Earth. As a result, the orbit of the Moon is increasing in radius at a rate of app
melomori [17]

Answer:

967500000 years

Explanation:

The Speed at which the radius of the orbit of the Moon is increasing is 4 cm/yr

Converting to m

1 m = 100 cm

1\ cm=\frac{1}{100}\ m

4\ cm\y=\frac{4}{100}=0.04\ m/yr

The distance by which the radius increases is 3.84×10⁷ m

Time = Distance / Speed

\text{Time}=\frac{3.87\times 10^7}{0.04}\\\Rightarrow \text{Time}=967500000\ yr

967500000 years will pass before the radius of the orbit increases by 10%.

Three capacitors are connected as follows: 2.8 F capacitor and 5.57 F capacitor are connected in series, then that combination i
DedPeter [7]

ANSWER

8.99 F

EXPLANATION

We know that two capacitors of capacitances 2.8 F and 5.57 F are connected in series, while a third capacitor of capacitance 7.13 F is connected in parallel to that combination,

The capacitance works similarly to the resistance, except that when capacitors are connected in parallel, their capacitances add up, while when they are connected in series, the equivalent capacitance is like we were finding the equivalent resistance of resistors connected in parallel,

C_{eq}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{C_1}+\frac{1}{C_2}}+C_3=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2.8F}+\frac{1}{5.57F}}+7.13F\approx8.99F

Hence, the total capacitance is 8.99 F, rounded to the nearest hundredth.

F both the mass of the body and the force acting on it are doubled, then acceleration--------------------
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

d. remains same​

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Force = mass * acceleration

Acceleration = \frac {Force}{mass}

If both the mass of the body and the force acting on it are doubled, then acceleration remains the same​.

Given the following data;

Mass = 2Mass

Force = 2Force

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Acceleration = \frac {2Force}{2Mass}

Acceleration = \frac {Force}{Mass}

An object has a kinetic energy of 500 J and a mass of 30kg. how fast is the object moving?
yuradex [85]

Answer:velocity=5.8m/s

Explanation:

Mass(m)=30kg

Kinetic energy(ke)=500joule

velocity=√(2ke ➗ m)

Velocity=√(2(500) ➗ 30)

Velocity=√(1000 ➗ 30)

Velocity=√(100/3)

velocity=5.8m/s
