The answer is friction

Friction

At the same time, if there were no friction at all on ice, skating would be impossible, because it is the friction between the skate and the ice when a skater pushes off that starts the motion to begin with. And friction is also what allows a skater to ever come to a stop.

A ball is thrown with a speed of 20 m/s at an angle of 40o above the horizontal from the top of a 22-m tall building.

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

(a). The distance is 49.79 m.

(b). The speed of the ball is 24.39 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 20 m/s

Angle = 40°

Height = 22 m

Time = 3.25 sec

(a). We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of distance

$d=u\cos\theta\times t$

Put the value into the formula

$d=20\cos40\times3.25$

$d=49.79\ m$

(b). We need to calculate the horizontal velocity

Using formula of velocity

$v_{x}=u\cos\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{x}=20\times\cos40$

$v_{x}=15.3\ m/s$

We need to calculate the vertical velocity

Using equation of motion

$v_{y}=u\sin\theta-gt$

Put the value into the formula

$v_{y}=20\sin40-9.8\times3.25$

$v_{y}=-19\ m/s$

Negative sign shows the opposite direction.

We need to calculate the speed of ball

Using formula of speed

$v=\sqrt{v_{x}^2+v_{y}^2}$

$v=\sqrt{(15.3)^2+(19)^2}$

$v=24.39\ m/s$

Hence, (a). The distance is 49.79 m.

(b). The speed of the ball is 24.39 m/s.

A potato is shot out of cylinder at an angle of 17 degrees above the horizontal with an initial speed of 20 m/s. What is its max

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Maximum height, h = 1.74 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

A potato is shot out of the cylinder. It is a case of projectile motion. The potato makes an angle of 17 degrees above the horizontal.

Initial speed with which the potato is shot out, u = 20 m/s

We have to find the maximum height of the potato. The maximum height of a projectile (h) is given by the following formula as :

$h=\dfrac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

Where

$\theta$ = angle between the projectile and the surface

g = acceleration due to gravity

$h=\dfrac{(20\ m/s)^2sin^2(17)}{2\times 9.8\ m/s^2}$

h = 1.74 m

or h = 1.74 meters

Hence, this is the required solution.

A particularly beautiful note reaching your ear from a rare stradivarius violin has a wavelength of 39.1 cm. the room is slightl

raketka [301]

The wavelength of the note is $\lambda = 39.1 cm = 0.391 m$ . Since the speed of the wave is the speed of sound, $c=344 m/s$ , the frequency of the note is
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}=879.8 Hz$

Then, we know that the frequency of a vibrating string is related to the tension T of the string and its length L by
$f= \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }$
where $\mu=0.550 g/m = 0.550 \cdot 10^{-3} kg/m$ is the linear mass density of our string.
Using the value of the tension, T=160 N, and the frequency we just found, we can calculate the length of the string, L:
$L= \frac{1}{2f} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} } =0.31 m$

A race car traveling at 10 meters per second accelerates at 1.5 meters per second squared while moving a distance of 600 meters.

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

vi = 10 m/s

a = 1.5 m/s^2

d = 600 m

vf = ?

Formula

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d

Solution

vf^2 = 10^2 + 2*1.5 * 600

vf^2 = 100 + 1800

vf^2 = 1900

sqrt(vf^2) = sqrt(1900)

vf = 43.59 m/s
