1) 0N... friction opposes the motion of an object, since the block is at rest there is no motion thus no friction
2) F=ma
= (5.5kg)(30m/s)
=165 N
The best type of electromagnetic wave to use to warm food that is safe would be the infrared wave. The correct answer is B.
Answer:
She can swing 1.0 m high.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The mechanical energy of Jane (ME) can be calculated by adding her gravitational potential (PE) plus her kinetic energy (KE).
The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:
KE = 1/2 · m · v²
And the potential energy:
PE = m · g · h
Where:
m = mass of Jane.
v = velocity.
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²).
h = height.
Then:
ME = KE + PE
Initially, Jane is running on the surface on which we assume that the gravitational potential energy of Jane is zero (the height is zero). Then:
ME = KE + PE (PE = 0)
ME = KE
ME = 1/2 · m · (4.5 m/s)²
ME = m · 10.125 m²/s²
When Jane reaches the maximum height, its velocity is zero (all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy). Then, the mechanical energy will be:
ME = KE + PE (KE = 0)
ME = PE
ME = m · 9.8 m/s² · h
Then, equallizing both expressions of ME and solving for h:
m · 10.125 m²/s² = m · 9.8 m/s² · h
10.125 m²/s² / 9.8 m/s² = h
h = 1.0 m
She can swing 1.0 m high (if we neglect dissipative forces such as air resistance).
In this item, we let x be the rate of the boat in still water and y be the rate of the current.
Upstream. When the boat is going upstream, the speed in still water is deducted by the speed of the current because the boat goes against the water. The distance covered is calculated by multiplying the number of hours and the speed.
(x - y)(3) = 144
Downstream. The speed of the boat going downstream is equal to x + y because the boat goes with the current.
(x + y)(2) = 144
The system of linear equations we can use to solve for x is,
3x - 3y = 144
2x + 2y = 144
We use either elimination or substitution.
We solve for the y of the first equation in terms of x,
y = -(144 - 3x)/3
Substitute this to the second equation,
2x + 2(-1)(144 - 3x)/3 = 144
The value of x from the equation is 60
