A box of mass 13kg sits on a table with a coefficient of static friction of 0.85. What is the maximum force of static friction?

Physics
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

108.3 N

Explanation:

The maximum force of static friction acting on the box is given by:

F=\mu N

where

\mu = 0.85 is the coefficient of static friction

N is the normal reaction of the table on the box

Since the box is in equilibrium along the vertical direction, the normal reaction N is equal to the weight of the box, so:

N=mg=(13 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=127.4 N

And so, the maximum force of static friction is

F=(0.85)(127.4 N)=108.3 N

One boat tows another boat by means of a tow line, which is under a constant tension of 465 N. The boats move at a constant spee
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Work done, W = 141174 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Constant tension acting on the boat, T = F = 465 N

Speed of the boat, v = 4.6 m/s

Time, t = 1.1 min = 66 seconds

Let W is the work done by the tension. It is equal to the product of force and displacement. It is given by :

W=F\times d

Since, d=vt

W=F\times v\times t

W=465\ N\times 4.6\ m/s\times 66\ s

W = 141174 Joules

So, the work is done by the tension is 141174 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider three scenarios in which a particular box moves downward under the pull of gravity :
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

1. True  WA > WB > WC

Explanation:

In this exercise they give work for several different configurations and ask that we show the relationship between them, the best way to do this is to calculate each work separately.

A) Work is the product of force by distance and the cosine of the angle between them

    WA = W h cos 0

   WA = mg h

B) On a ramp without rubbing

     Sin30 = h / L

     L = h / sin 30

     WB = F d cos θ  

     WB = F L cos 30

     WB = mf (h / sin30) cos 30

     WB = mg h ctan 30

C) Ramp with rubbing

    W sin 30 - fr = ma

   N- Wcos30 = 0

   W sin 30 - μ W cos 30 = ma

    F = W (sin30 - μ cos30)

   WC = mg (sin30 - μ cos30) h / sin30

   Wc = mg (1 - μ ctan30) h

When we review the affirmation it is the work where there is rubbing is the smallest and the work where it comes in free fall at the maximum

Let's review the claims

1. True The work of gravity is the greatest and the work where there is friction is the least

2 False. The job where there is friction is the least

3 False work with rubbing is the least

4 False work with rubbing is the least

Release an electron initially at rest in the presence of an electric field. The electron tends to go to the region of 1. same el
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The electron tends to go to the region of 4. higher electric potential.

Explanation:

When a charged particle is immersed in an electric field, it experiences a force given by

F=qE

where

q is the charge of the particle

E is the electric field

The direction of the force depends on the sign of the charge. In particular:

- The force and the electric field have the same direction if the charge is positive

- The force and the electric field have opposite directions if the charge is negative

Therefore, an electron (negative charge) moves in the direction opposite to the electric field lines.

However, electric field lines go from points at higher potential to points at lower potential: so, electrons move from regions at lower potential to regions of higher potential.

Therefore, the correct answer is

The electron tends to go to the region of 4. higher electric potential.

Fill in the chart below to identify the name of the process that explains the state of change indicated, the states of matter be
yuradex [85]

1.  Changing from solid to a liquid is called melting / fusion and happen

at the melting/ fusion point.

Reason: melting point is a temperature at which a solid melt and converts into liquid by providing heat.

2. Changing from liquid to gas is called evaporation/boiling and happens at the evaporation/boiling point.

Reason. Evaporation is a process in which molecules from surface of liquid convert into gas.

3.   Changing from a gas to a liquid  is called condensation and happens at the condensation point.

Reason : In condensation process  gas particles converts into liquid droplets.

4. Changing from liquid to a solid is called freezing and happens at the freezing point.

Reason : Freezing is a process that convert liquid into soilid state by decreasing temperature of that specific liquid,
