You push on a cart (18.0kg) at a 30 degree below horizontal angle. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the

floor is 0.625. What is the value of the angled force that will keep the chair moving at a constant velocity?

Given that force is applied at an angle of 30 degree below the horizontal

So let say force applied if F

now its two components are given as

F_x = Fcos30


F_y = Fsin30


Now the normal force on the block is given as

N = Fsin30 + mg

N = 0.5F + (18\times 9.8)

N = 0.5F + 176.4

now the friction force on the cart is given as

F_f = \mu N

F_f = 0.625(0.5F + 176.4)

F_f = 110.25 + 0.3125F

now if cart moves with constant speed then net force on cart must be zero

so now we have

F_f + F_x = 0

Fcos30 - (110.25 + 0.3125F) = 0

0.866F - 0.3125F = 110.25

F = 199.2 N

so the force must be 199.2 N

A 39.3 g glass thermometer reads 22.0oC before it
ratelena [41]

Answer:

44.85C

Explanation:

Let the specific heat of glass thermometer be 0.84 J/g°C

Let the specific heat of water be 4.186 j/g °C

Let the water density be 1kg/L

136 mL of water = 0.136L of water = 0.136 kg of water = 136 g of water

Since the change of temperature on the glass thermometer is 43.6 - 22 = 21.6 C. We can then calculate the heat energy absorbed to it:

E = m_gc_g \Delta T = 39.3 * 0.84 * 21.6 = 713.06 J

Assume no energy is lost to outside, by the law of energy conservation, this heat energy would come from water

E = m_wc_w(T - T_w) = 713.06

136*4.186(T - 43.6) = 713.06

T - 43.6 = \frac{713.06}{136*4.186} = 1.25

T = 1.25 + 43.6 = 44.85C

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average velocity of 3 m/s. the river height is 90m above the lake. what is the tota
strojnjashka [21]

Kinetic energy per unit of mass is

K=\frac{v^{2} }{2}

Given, v=3m/s^{2}

Therefore,

K=\frac{(3^{2} m/s^{2} )^2}{2}

K=4.5 J/kg

Now potential energy per unit mass is

p=g\times h

Given, h=90 m

Therefore,

p= 9.8m/s^2 \times 90

p=882.9 J/kg

Thus, total mechanical energy of the river water per unit mass is

T=K+p=(4.5+882.9)J/kg

T=887.9 J/kg

OR

T=0.887 kJ/kg

A violinist is tuning her instrument to concert A (440 Hz). She plays the note while listening to an electronically generated to
Soloha48 [4]

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to beat frequency, i.e., The number of those wobbles per second.

The equation that describes the beat frequency is

f_{beat} = |f_2-f_1|

For our given case we have that the frequency of the instrument is 440Hz and the Beat frequency is 5Hz therefore,

A) The frequency of the violin would be given by

f_{beat} = |f_2-f_1|

5Hz = |f_2-440Hz|

f_2 = 440 \pm 5

f_2 = 445Hz or 435Hz

B) <em>The violinist must loosen the string.</em> As the tightening increases the frequency, thereby increasing the number of beats from 5 to 6, i. e, on thightening the string, the frequency further increases as high frequency will be produced by short trings.
