The force of static friction acting on the luggage =255 N

Explanation:

Applied force= 255 N

mass of luggage=68 kg

coefficient of friction= μ=0.7

Normal force=N = mg

N= 68(9.8)=666.4 N

now the force of friction is given by

Ff= μN

Ff=0.7 (666.4)

Ff=466.5 N which is greater than the applied force.

When the applied force is less than the force of friction, in that case

force of friction= applied force

Thus the force of station friction acting on the luggage = 255 N

An object is thrown straight up into the air with an initial speed of 8 m/s, and reaches a greatest height of 15 m before it fal
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The value is T_t =  2.5659 \  s    

Explanation:

From the we are told that  

         The initial speed of the object is  u =  8 \  m/s

         The greatest height it reached is  h  =  15 \  m

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

      v^2 =  u^2 + 2gH

At maximum height v  =  0 m/s

So

      0^2 =  8^2 + 2 *  - 9.8 *  H

=>    H  =  3.27 \  m

Here H is the height from the initial height to the maximum height

So the initial height is mathematically represented as  

      s =  h - H

=>    s =  15 - 3.27

=>    s =  11.73 \  m

Generally the time taken for the object to reach maximum height is mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as follows

            v  =  u + (-g) t

At maximum height v  =  0 m/s

           0 = 8 - 9.8t

=>         t = 0.8163 \  s

Generally the time taken for the object to move from the maximum height to the ground is mathematically using kinematic equation as follows

       h  =  ut_1 + \frac{1}{2}  gt_1^2

Here the initial velocity is  0 m/s given that its the velocity at maximum height

Also  g is positive because we are moving in the direction of gravity  

So

       15  =  0* t  +  4.9 t^2

=>      t_1  =  1.7496

Generally the total time taken is mathematically represented as

          T_t =  t + t_1

=>        T_t =  0.8163  +   1.7496

=>        T_t =  2.5659 \  s

The current in a series circuit is 19.3 A. When an additional 7.40-Ω resistor is inserted in series, the current drops to 13.4 A
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

16.8ohms

Explanation:

According to ohm's law which states that the current passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends.

Mathematically, V = IRt where;

V is the voltage across the circuit

I is the current

R is the effective resistance

For a series connected circuit, same current but different voltage flows through the resistors.

If the initial current in a circuit is 19.3A,

V = 19.3R... (1)

When additional resistance of 7.4-Ω is added and current drops to 13.4A, our voltage in the circuit becomes;

V = 13.4(7.4+R)... (2)

Note that the initial resistance is added to the additional resistance because they are connected in series.

Equating the two value of the voltages i.e equation 1 and 2 to get the resistance in the original circuit we will have;

19.3R = 13.4(7.4+R)

19.3R = 99.16+13.4R

19.3R-13.4R = 99.16

5.9R = 99.16

R= 99.16/5.9

R = 16.8ohms

The resistance in the original circuit will be 16.8ohms

Elan Coil [88]
Make the base of the building zero. Then the initial distance is 100m, final distance unknown x. Use gravity, time and initial velocity to solve for final distance.
x - 100 = (0)(5) +(1/2)(-9.81)(5^2)
x - 100 = 0 - 122.625
x = -122.625 + 100
x = -22.625 m below ground
