The acceleration of the  box up the ramp is 9.65 m/s².

<h3>What is the magnitude of acceleration of the box?</h3>

The magnitude of the acceleration of the box is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as shown below;

F(net) = ma

where;

  • m is the mass of the box
  • a is the acceleration of the box

The net force on the box is calculated as follows;

F(net) = F - Ff

F(net) = F - μmgcosθ

where;

  • θ is the inclination of the plane
  • μ is coefficient of friction

F(net) = 170 -  (0.3 x 15 x 9.8 x cos55)

F(net) = 144.7

The acceleration of the box is calculated as;

a = F(net) / m

a = (144.7) / (15)

a = 9.65 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration of the  box up the ramp is 9.65 m/s².

Temka [501]

Answer:

7.71 V

Explanation:

When the charge remains constant, the potential difference decrease by the factor of the dielectric constant K

V new = V initial / K = 12 V / 2.8 = 4.29 V

ΔV ( change in potential) = V initial - V new ( after dielectric has been added) = 12 V - 4.29 V =      7.71 V

The potential difference decreases by 7.71 V

Rate of work done against water resistant? Can someone explain why its 3.0W? Thanks.
tatuchka [14]
You understand the concepts all perfectly fine, just have applied them slightly incorrectly.
Firstly, the speed time graph is actually a triangle since the question says a steady acceleration from rest - i.e. it started at 0 and worked up to 2ms-1 in the space of that 10 seconds. The area under the graph is the distance, and a triangle area is found with bh/2, and in this case that is 10*2/2 = 10m - so the boat travelled 10 metres.

Work done as you correctly stated is fd - giving the part against water resistance as 3*10 = 30J
However, you forgot to do the last part - the key words are rate of work - this means Power. Power is Energy/Time, and this whole process occurred over 10 seconds. So whilst 30J of energy were expended due to the water resistance, this didn't all occur in no time. So we need to divide that by 10 to get the power. And 30/10 is 3J/s - and J/s is the same as W.

A 15kg penguin slides on its belly down an icy, frictionless glacier. If the penguin started from rest and reaches a speed of 11
Schach [20]

Answer:

Mechanical Energy (initial) = Mechanical energy (final)

Ep(initial) + Ek(initial) = Ep(final) + Ek(final)

mgh(initial) + 1/2mv²(initial) = mgh(final) + 1/2mv²(final)

m being the mass of the penguin (kg)

g being gravitational acceleration (9.80 m/s²)

v(initial) being zero

h(final) being zero,i.e. final height is zero

v(final) being final velocity

solve for h(initial) being initial height at the top of the glacier

answer will be in metres

NB: don't forget to square the velocity

Explanation:

Since they mentioned frictionless, we know that this is a closed system therefore we are free to use this equation of conservation of mechanical energy
