The formula is Force = coefficient of friction times the weight or normal force (in newtons). Plug the numbers in the formula. Do the simple division math. The coefficient of friction should be any number between 0 and 1. If your answer is smaller than 0 or greater than 1, go back and check your work. The answer for this question is C. 0.38

Answer:

$\mu_k = 0.38$

Explanation:

As we know that the normal force on the book is given as

$F_n = 51.7 N$

also the force required to push the book on the table is given as

$F_f = 19.5 N$

now by the formula of friction force we know that

$F_f = \mu_k F_n$

now plug in all values in it

$19.5 = \mu_k (51.7)$

here we will have

$\mu_k = \frac{19.5}{51.7}$

$\mu_k = 0.38$

A 23.3-kg mass is attached to one end of a horizontal spring, with the other end of the spring fixed to a wall. The mass is pull

sdas [7]

In spring mass system we know that angular frequency is given as

$\omega = 2\pi f$

f = 8.38 Hz

$\omega = 2\pi(8.38)$

$\omega = 52.65 rad/s$

now we know that speed of SHM at its extreme position is given by

$v = A\omega$

here we know that

A = 17.5 cm

$v = 0.175 (52.65)$

$v = 9.21 m/s$

so maximum speed is 9.21 m/s

If the angular velocity of the pully is -8.4rad/s at a given time, and its anglar acceleration is -2.8rad/s2, what is the angula

snow_lady [41]

Here we know that

$\omega_i = - 8.4 rad/s$

$\alpha = - 2.8 rad/s^2$

$t = 1.5 s$

now from kinematics we have

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

now from above all values we have

$\omega_f = (-8.4 rad/s) + (-2.8 rad/s^2)(1.5)$

$\omega_f = -8.4 + (-4.2)$

$\omega_f = -12.6 rad/s$

so final angular speed is -12.6 rad/s

An object is thrown directly downward from the top of a very tall building. The speed of the object just as it is released is 17

Softa [21]

Answer:

distance cover is = 102.53 m

Explanation:

Given data:

speed of object is 17.1 m/s

$t_1 = 3.32 sec$

$t_2 = 5.08 sec$

from equation of motion we know that

$d_1 = vt_1 + \frac{1}{2} gt_1^2$

where d_1 is distance covered in time t1

so $d_1 = 17.1 \times 3.32 + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 \times 3.32^2$ =

$d_1 = 110.78 m$

$d_2 = vt_2 + \frac{1}{2} gt_2^2$

where d_2 is distance covered in time t2

$d_2 = 17.1 \times 5.08 + \frac{1}{2}\times9.8 \times 5.08^2$

$d_2 = 213.31 m$

distance cover is = 213.31 - 110.78 = 102.53 m

A 1200 kg sports car accelerates from 0 m/s to 30 m/s in 10 s. What is the average power of the engine?

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

3600N

Explanation:

Given: m = 1200kg, Vo = 0m/s, Vf = 30m/s, Δt = 10s

ΣF = ma

we need to find 'a' first, using the definition of 'a' we get equation:

a = (Vf-Vo)/Δt

a = (30m/s)/10s

a = 3 m/s^2

now substitute into top equation

ΣF = ma

Fengine = (1200kg)(3m/s^2)

Fengine = 3600N
