A skater slides across the ice with an initial velocity of 5.0 m/s. She slows 10 points

zvonat [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of a skater is, u = 5 m/s

She slows to a velocity of 2 m/s over a distance of 20 m.

We can find the acceleration of skater. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So, it can be calculated using third equation of motion as follows :

$v^2-u^2=2as$

a = acceleration

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\\a=\dfrac{(2)^2-(5)^2}{2\times 20}\\\\a=-0.525\ m/s^2$

So, her acceleration is $0.525\ m/s^2$ and she is deaccelerating. Also, her initial velocity is given i.e. 5 m/s.

A point charge with a charge q1 = 4.00 μC is held stationary at the origin. A second point charge with a charge q2 = -4.10 μC mo

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

W = -0.480 J

Explanation:

given,

q₁ = 4 μC

q₂ = -4.10 μC

$W = kq_1q_2(\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{1}{b})$

$b = \sqrt{(0.27-0)^2+(0.27-0)^2}$

b = 0.381

k = 8.99 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

$W = 8.99\times 10^9\times 4\times 10^{-6}\times (-4.1 \times 10^{-6})(\dfrac{1}{0.17}+\dfrac{1}{0.381})$

$W = [-147.436\times (5.88-2.62)\times 10^{-3}]J$

W = -0.480 J

Work done by the electric force W = -0.480 J

A box rests on top of a flat bed truck. The box has a mass of m = 16.0 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the box an

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1) 1.31 m/s2

2) 20.92 N

3) 8.53 m/s2

4) 1.76 m/s2

5) -8.53 m/s2

Explanation:

1) As the box does not slide, the acceleration of the box (relative to ground) is the same as acceleration of the truck, which goes from 0 to 17m/s in 13 s

$a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{17 - 0}{13} = 1.31 m/s2$

2)According to Newton 2nd law, the static frictional force that acting on the box (so it goes along with the truck), is the product of its mass and acceleration

$F_s = am = 1.31*16 = 20.92 N$

3) Let g = 9.81 m/s2. The maximum static friction that can hold the box is the product of its static coefficient and the normal force.

$F_{\mu_s} = \mu_sN = mg\mu_s = 16*9.81*0.87 = 136.6N$

So the maximum acceleration on the block is

$a_{max} = F_{\mu_s} / m = 136.6 / 16 = 8.53 m/s^2$

4)As the box slides, it is now subjected to kinetic friction, which is

$F_{\mu_s} = mg\mu_k = 16*9.81*0.69 = 108.3 N$

So if the acceleration of the truck it at the point where the box starts to slide, the force that acting on it must be at 136.6 N too. So the horizontal net force would be 136.6 - 108.3 = 28.25N. And the acceleration is

28.25 / 16 = 1.76 m/s2

5) Same as number 3), the maximum deceleration the truck can have without the box sliding is -8.53 m/s2
