A 1500 kg car is approaching a hill that has a height of 12 m. As the car reaches the bottom of the hill it runs out of gas and

has a constant speed of 10 m/s. Will the car make it to the top of the hill?

Answer:

No, the car will not make it to the top of the hill.

Explanation:

Let ΔX be how long the slope of the hill is, Δx be how far the car will travel along the slope of the hill, Ф be the angle the slope of the hill makes with the horizontal(bottom of the hill), ki be the kinetic energy of the car at the bottom of the hill and vi be the velocity of the car at the bottom of the hill and kf be the kinetic energy of the car when it stop moving at vf.

Since Ф is the angle between the horizontal and the slope, the relationship between the angle and the slope and the height of the hill is given by

sinФ = 12/ΔX

Which gives you the slope as

ΔX = 12/sinФ

Therefore for the car to reach the top of the hill it will have to travel ΔX.

Ignoring friction the total work done is given by

W = ΔK

W = (kf - ki)

Since the car will come to a stop, kf = 0 J

W = -ki

m×g×sinФ×Δx = 1/2×m×vi^2

(9.8)×sinФ×Δx = 1/2×(10)^2

sinФΔx = 5.1

Δx = 5.1/sinФ

ΔX>>Δx Ф ∈ (0° , 90°)

(Note that the maximum angle Ф is 90° because the slope of a hill can never be greater ≥ 90° because that would then mean the car cannot travel uphill.)

Since the car can never travel the distance of the slope, it can never make it to the top of the hill.

a 150 N force is used to pull a wooden box across a wooden surface at a constant velocity. what is the mass of the box?
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The mass of the box:

m =  60 kg

Explanation:

Given:

F = 150 N

g = 10 m/s²

_________

m - ?

Coefficient of friction wood on wood:

μ = 0.25

Friction force:

F₁ = μ*m*g

Newton's Third Law:

F = F₁

F = μ*m*g

The mass of the box:

m = F / ( μ*g) = 150 / (0.25*10) =  60 kg

In Thomson’s experiment, why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
Svetllana [295]

The glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

<h3>What are the nature of charges?</h3>

The nature of charges refers to the properties of charges.

There are two types of charges:

  • negative charges
  • positive charges

The law of electricity states that opposite charges attract whereas like charges repel.

Therefor, in Thomson’s experiment, the glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

In conclusion, like charges repel while opposite charges attract.

NEED IT ASAP PLEASE 3 examples of how we use physics in our everyday life. Please explain throughly.
Flauer [41]

Answer:

  1. Alarm Clock. The buzzing sound of an alarm clock helps you wake up in the morning as per your schedule. The sound is something that you can’t see, but hear or experience.
  2. Cell Phones Cellphones have become like Oxygen gas in modern social life. Hardly, anyone would have been untouched by the effects of a cell phone. Whether conveying any urgent message or doing incessant gossips, cellphones are everywhere. But do you know how does a cell phone work? It works on the principle of electricity and the electromagnetic spectrum, undulating patterns of electricity and magnetism.
  3. Walking.Now, when you get ready for your office/school, whatever medium of commutation is, you certainly have to walk up to a certain distance. You can easily walk is just because of Physics. While you have a walk in a park or on a tar road, you have a good grip without slipping because of a sort of roughness or resistance between the soles of your shoes and the surface of the road.

Explanation:

physical is related to things perceived through the senses as opposed to the mind; tangible or concrete.
