<span>3.92 m/s^2
Assuming that the local gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2, then the maximum acceleration that the truck can have is the coefficient of static friction multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration, so
0.4 * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3.92 m/s^2
If you want the more complicated answer, the normal force that the crate exerts is it's mass times the local gravitational acceleration, so
20.0 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 196 kg*m/s^2 = 196 N
Multiply by the coefficient of static friction, giving
196 N * 0.4 = 78.4 N
So we need to apply 78.4 N of force to start the crate moving. Let's divide by the crate's mass
78.4 N / 20.0 kg
= 78.4 kg*m/s^2 / 20.0 kg
= 3.92 m/s^2
And you get the same result.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
Work done in lifting the weight once = mgh
= 20 x 9.8 x (1.9+1.7)
= 705.6 J
= 705.6 / 4.2 calorie
= 168 cals
Total energy to be spent = 600 x 10³ cals
No of times weight is required to be lifted
= 600 x 10³ / 168
= 3.57 x 10³ times
Total time to be taken = 2 x 3.57 x 10³
= 7.14 x 10³ s
=119 minutes .
The red laser will have a hotter temperature than the blue, so it is red because it is hot
