A 27 kg bear slides, from rest, 14 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 6.1 m/s just before hitting the ground.

(a) What change occurs in the gravitational potential energy of the bear-Earth system during the slide? (b) What is the kinetic energy of the bear just before hitting the ground? (c) What is the average frictional force that acts on the sliding bear?

<h2>Thus the force of friction is 235 N</h2>

Explanation:

When the bear was at the height of 14 m . Its potential energy = m g h

here m is the mass of bear , g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height .

Thus P.E =  27 x 10 x 14 = 3780 J

The K.E of the bear just before hitting = \frac{1}{2} m v²

=   \frac{1}{2} x 27 x ( 6.1 )²  = 490 J

The force of friction f = P.E - K.E = 3290 J

Because the work done = Force x Distance

Thus frictional force = \frac{3290}{14} = 235 N

Answer:

33.6\times10^{-4}}\text{ m} = 3.36 mm

Explanation:

From Ohm's law,

V = IR (Voltage = Current * Resistance)

R = \dfrac{V}{I}

The geometric definition of resistance is

R = \rho\dfrac{l}{A}

where \rho is the resistivity of the material, l  and A are the length and cross-sectional area, respectively.

A = \rho\dfrac{l}{R}

A = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}

Since the wire is assumed to have a circular cross-section, its area is given by

A = \pi\dfrac{d^2}{4} where d is the diameter.

\pi\dfrac{d^2}{4} = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}

d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{\pi\times V}}

Resistivity of copper = 1.68\times10^{-8}. With these and other given values,

d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\times1.68\times10^{-8}\times1.5\times290}{3.14\times 0.55}}

d = \sqrt{1128.43\times10^{-8}}

d = 33.6\times10^{-4} \text{ m}

A 5.67-kg block of wood is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 150 N/m. The block is free to slide on a horizontal fr
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

v=0.94 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

M= 5.67 kg

k= 150 N/m

m=1 kg

μ = 0.45

The maximum acceleration of upper block can be μ g.

 a= μ g                          ( g = 10 m/s²)

The maximum acceleration of system will ω²X.

ω = natural frequency

X=maximum displacement

For top stop slipping

μ g  =ω²X

We know for spring mass system natural frequency given as

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{M+m}}

By putting the values

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{150}{5.67+1}}

ω = 4.47 rad/s

μ g  =ω²X

By putting the values

0.45 x 10 = 4.47² X

X = 0.2 m

From energy conservation

\dfrac{1}{2}kX^2=\dfrac{1}{2}(m+M)v^2

kX^2=(m+M)v^2

150 x 0.2²=6.67 v²

v=0.94 m/s

This is the maximum speed of system.

ECONOMICS !!!!
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Absolute advantage is the capability of a commercial entity to produce goods using fewer resources compared to rivals. Using the same inputs, an entity with an absolute advantage produces a larger output compared to competitors. It means the firm has a lower marginal cost of production. Therefore, its products will have the lowest prices in the market.
