A 2.03 kg book is placed on a flat desk. Suppose the coefficient of static friction between the book and the desk is 0.442 and t

he coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.240. How much force is needed to begin moving the book?
How much force is needed to keep the book moving at constant speed once it begins moving?

Answer:

a) 8.80 N

b) 4.78 N

Explanation:

The weight of the book is

$W = mg = 2.03\times9.81 = 19.9143 \text{ N}$

By Newton's third law, the reaction from the table, R, is equal to its weight.

R = 19.9143 N

From the law of solid friction,

$F = \mu R$

F is the maximum frictional force and $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction.

a) The force needed to begin moving the book is that needed to overcome static friction

$F = 0.442\times19.9143 = 8.80\text{ N}$

b) The force needed to move the book at constant speed once it begins moving is that needed to overcome kinetic friction

$F = 0.240\times19.9143 = 4.78\text{ N}$

lapo4ka [179]

Answer: (A) 3.0=A

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the OHM law, given by: V=R*I

Besides, we have to consider the resitance equivalent for a parallel connection. This is given by:

1/Re=1/R1+1/R2

If we connect the same resistance, the equivalent resistance is R/2.

Initlally the current is 1.5 A when one resistance is connected to the batttery. When a second resistance with the same value is connected in parallel to the battery, we have V=Re*Ifinal= (R/2)*Ifinal

also we know that V=R*Iinitial so Iinitial=V/R

then Ifinal= 2*V/R=2*Iinitial

You throw a ball straight up. The ball has an initial speed of 11.2 m/s when it leaves your hand What is the maximum height the

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

initial velocity $u=11.2\ m/s$

At maximum height velocity of ball is zero

using

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

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

$(0)^2 -(11.2)^2=2\times (-9.8)\times (s)$

$s=\frac{11.2^2}{2\times 9.8}$

$s=6.4$

time taken by the ball to reach the maximum height

$v=u+at$

$0=11.2-9.8\times t$

$t=\frac{11.2}{9.8}$

$t=1.142\ s$

At $t=2\ s$ height of ball is

$h=ut+\\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$h=11.2\times 2-\frac{1}{2}9.8\times (2)^2$

$h=22.4-19.6$

$h=2.8\ m$

i.e. ball is moving downward

height at $v=5\ m/s$

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

$s=\frac{25-125.4}{2\times (-9.8)}$

$s=5.12\ m$

a constant current of 3 a for 4 hours is required to charge an automotive battery.if the terminal voltage is 10 t/2 v, where t i

Korvikt [17]

The charge transported as a result of charging is 43200C .

we can note the following data from the statement :

Current (i) = 3A

Time interval (t) = 4 hrs = 14400secs

As we know ,

Current is defined as the rate of flow of the charges between two points when a potential difference is applied between them.

Mathematically , it can be written as

Current(i) = charge (q)/ time(t)

Q = i × t

= 3 × 14400

= 43200 C

By dividing the value of the current passed through the circuit by the time for which the charge is passed gives out the value of the charge passed .

Answer:

liquid phase

Explanation:

it is liquid phase because molecules are not that tightly packed as solid and not that far away from each other as in gas phase.
