A 3.50 kg block is pushed along a horizontal floor by a force of magnitude 15.0 N at an angle θ = 30.0° with the horizontal. The

coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the floor is 0.250.
Calculate the magnitudes of (a) the frictional force on the block from the floor and
(b) the block's acceleration.

Answer :

The frictional force on the block from the floor and the  block's acceleration are 10.45 N and 0.73 m/s².

Explanation :

Given that,

Mass of block = 3.50

Angle = 30°

Force = 15.0 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.250

We need to calculate the frictional force

Using formula of frictional force

F_{k}=\mu N

F_{k}=\mu (F\sin\theta+mg)

F_{k}=0.250\times(15\times\sin30^{\circ}+3.50\times9.8)

F_{k}=0.250\times41.8

F_{k}=10.45\ N

(II). We need to calculate the block's acceleration

Using newton's second law of motion

F=ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{F\cos\theta-F_{k}}{m}

a=\dfrac{15.0\cos30^{\circ}-10.45}{3.50}

a=0.73\ m/s^2

Hence, The frictional force on the block from the floor and the  block's acceleration are 10.45 N and 0.73 m/s².

A bus moving along a level road increases its speed from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 15.0s. What is the car's acceleration?​
Ksju [112]

Explanation:

initial velocity U = 20m/s

Final velocity V = 35m/s

time = 15.0 secs

change in velocity = 35 - 15

= 20m/s

acceleration a = change in velocity/time V/t

a = (35-20)/15

a= 15/15

Hence, your acceleration is 1m/s^2

For a transverse wave, what is a wavefront?
vichka [17]

Explanation:

A wavefront is the long edge that moves, for example, the crest or the trough. Each point on the wavefront emits a semicircular wave that moves at the propagation speed v. These are drawn at a time t later, so that they have moved a distance s = vt.
