Answer:

a = F-ff/m

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion which states that "the rate of change in momentum of a body is directly proportional to the applied force F and acts in the direction of the force.

Mathematically;

F = ma

Since two forces acts on the cart i.e the moving force F and the frictional force Ff , we will take the sum of the forces.

∑F = ma where

m is the mass of the cart

a is its acceleration

∑F = F+(-ff )(since frictional force is an opposing force)

F - ff = ma

Dividing both sides by mass m

a = F-ff/m

love history [14]

Answer:

625 W

Explanation:

Applying

P = W/t.................... Equation 1

Where p = power, W = Work, t = time

But,

W = Force (F) × distance (d)

W = Fd........................ Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

P = Fd/t.................... Equation 3

From the question,

Given: F = 5000 N, d = 30 m, t = 4 munites = (4×60) seconds = 240 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 3

P = (5000×30)/240

P = 625 Watt

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

c. probablistic view of nature.

Explanation:

According to the problem of particle in a box in one dimension. If the particle energy E is taken less than the height of the barrier V.

Then with the help of classical mechanics it can be prove that the particle can not cross the barrier but according to the quantum mechanics, there is a small but a finite probability to cross the barrier.

Therefore by the above discussion it can be concluded that quantum mechanics can be thought as a probablistic view of nature.

A truck traveling at a velocity of 33m/s comes to a halt by decelerating at 11m/s^2. How far does the truck travel in the proces
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

<u><em>The truck was moving 16.5 m/s during the time it took to stop, which was 3 seconds. </em></u>

  • <u><em>Initial velocity = 33 m/s</em></u>
  • <u><em>Final velocity = 0 m/s</em></u>
  • <u><em>Average velocity = (33 + 0) / 2  m/s = 16.5 m/s</em></u>

Explanation:

  1. <u><em>First, how long does it take the truck to come to a complete stop?</em></u>
  1. <u><em>( 33 m/s ) / ( 11 m / s^2 ) = 3 seconds</em></u>
  1. <u><em>Then we can look at the average velocity between when the truck started decelerating and when it came to a complete stop. Because the deceleration is constant (always 11m/s^2) we can use this trick.</em></u>

Given that a pipe having a diameter of 1.5 feet and a height of 10 feet, what is the psi at 5 feet ?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The pressure is 2.167 psi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 1.5 feet

Height = 10 feet

We need to calculate the psi at 5 feet

Using formula of pressure at a depth in a fluid

Suppose the fluid is water.

Then, the pressure is

P=\rho g h

Where, P = pressure

\rho = density

h = height

Put the value into the formula

P=1000\times9.8\times1.524

P=14935.2\ N/m^2

Pressure in psi is

P=2.166167621\ psi

P=2.167\ psi

Hence, The pressure is 2.167 psi.
