Answer:

The frictional force acting on the block is 14.8 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of block = 37 N

Coefficients of static = 0.8

Kinetic friction = 0.4

Tension = 24 N

We need to calculate the maximum friction force

Using formula of friction force

f=\mu mg

Put the value into the formula

f=0.8\times37

f=29.6\ N

So, the tension must exceeds 29.6 N for the block to move

We need to calculate the frictional force acting on the block

Using formula of frictional force

f = \mu N

Put the value in to the formula

f=0.4\times37

f=14.8\ N

Hence, The frictional force acting on the block is 14.8 N.

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Voltage across the capacitor is 30 V and rate of energy across the capacitor is 0.06 W

Explanation:

As we know that the current in the circuit at given instant of time is

i = 2.0 mA

R = 10 k ohm

now we know by ohm's law

V = iR

V = (2 mA)(10 kohm)

V = 20 volts

so voltage across the capacitor + voltage across resistor = V

V_c + 20 = 50

V_c = 30 V

Now we know that

U = \frac{q^2}{2C}

here rate of change in energy of the capacitor is given as

\frac{dU}{dt} = \frac{q}{C} \frac{dq}{dt}

\frac{dU}{dt} = (30)(2 mA)

\frac{dU}{dt} = 0.06 W

UkoKoshka [18]
Previous results tell us the speed (v) is given in terms of the coefficient of friction (k) and the radius of the curve (r) as
  v = √(kgr)
  v = √(0.20·9.8 m/s²·50 m)
  = 7√2 m/s ≈ 9.90 m/s

The net horizontal force on a car is 981 N. The car has a mass of 1550 kg and the force is applied when the car has a speed of 2
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Distance, d = 778.05 m                          

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the car, F = 981 N

Mass of the car, m = 1550 kg

Initial speed of the car, v = 25 mi/h = 11.17 m/s

We need to find the distance covered by car if the force continues to be applied to the car. Firstly, lets find the acceleration of the car:

F=ma\\\\a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{981}{1550}\\\\a=0.632\ m/s^2

Let d is the distance covered by car. Using second equation of motion as :

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=11.17\times 35+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.632\times (35)^2\\\\d=778.05\ m

So, the car will cover a distance of 778.05 meters.

Which event is an example of condensation?
ale4655 [162]

Answer: D

If the fog disappears when the Sun comes out, then this is an example of condensation because:

the Sun actually dries up the fog, and it makes it into higher clouds.

Hope this helps you!
