a. The force applied would be equal to the frictional force.

F = us Fn

where, F = applied force = 35 N, us = coeff of static friction, Fn = normal force = weight

 

35 N = us * (6 kg * 9.81 m/s^2)

us = 0.595

 

b. The force applied would now be the sum of the frictional force and force due to acceleration

F = uk Fn + m a

where, uk = coeff of kinetic friction

 

35 N = uk * (6 kg * 9.81 m/s^2) + (6kg * 0.60 m/s^2)

uk = 0.533

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Coefficient of friction will be 0.587

Explanation:

We have given mass of the car m = 500 kg

Distance s = 18.25 m

Initial velocity of the car u = 14.5 m/sec

As the car finally stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec

From second equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

0^2=14.5^2+2\times a\times 18.25

a=-5.76m/sec^2

We know that acceleration is given by

a=\mu g

5.76=\mu\times  9.81

\mu =0.587

So coefficient of friction will be 0.587

A standard AA battery provides 1.5 V. How many pennies and nickels would you need to include in a voltaic pile to produce the sa
GrogVix [38]

Answer: In a battery, voltage determines how strongly electrons are pushed through a circuit, much like pressure determines how strongly water is pushed through a hose. Most AAA, AA, C, and D batteries are around 1.5 volts. Imagine the batteries shown in the diagram are rated at 1.5 volts and 500 milliamp-hours.

Explanation: Today "AA" is frequently used as a size designation, irrespective of the battery's electrochemical system. The main numbers used for the most common NiMH and NiCad battery

A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 3.75 m/s. If the roof is pitched at
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

a) t = 0.528 s

b) D = 1.62 m

Explanation:

given,

speed of the baseball = 3.75 m/s

angle made with the horizontal = 35°

height of the roof edge = 2.5 m

using equation of motion

s = ut +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

2.5 = vsin\theta \ t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

2.5 = 3.75\ sin35^0 \ t +\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 t^2

4.9 t² + 2.15 t - 2.5 = 0

on solving the above equation

t = 0.528 s

b) D = v cos θ × t

D = 3.75 × cos 35° ×0.528

D = 1.62 m

How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the o
melisa1 [442]

Question:

A spaceship enters the solar system moving toward the Sun at a constant speed relative to the Sun. By its own clock, the time elapsed between the time it crosses the orbit of Jupiter and the time it crosses the orbit of Mars is 35.0 minutes

How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the orbit of Mars is 12.6 light-minutes.

Answer:

S = 5.508 × 10¹¹m

V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

The radius of the orbit of Jupiter, Rj is 43.2 light-minutes

radius of the orbit of Mars, Rm is 12.6 light-minutes

Distance travelled S = (Rj - Rm)

= 43.2 - 12.6 = 30.6 light- minutes

= 30.6 × (3 ×10⁸m/s) × 60 s

= 5.508 × 10¹¹m

time = 35mins = (35 × 60 secs)

= 2100 secs

speed = distance/time

V = 5.508 × 10¹¹m / 2100 s

V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s
