Answer:

Explanation:

The general consensus is that it's more “natural” to define distance (meter) and time (second) and as base units, and derive velocity a the ratio between them. ...

On a planet where g = 10.0 m/s2 and air resistance is negligible, a sled is at rest on a rough inclined hill rising at 30°. The

Cloud [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

a is the acceleration

μ is the coefficient of friction

Acceleration of the object is given by

$a = g (\sin \theta -\mu \cos \theta)\\\\=10( \sin 30 - 0.4 \cos 30)\\\\=10(0.5-0.3464)\\\\=1.54m/s^2$

Velocity at the bottom

$v^2=u^2+2as\\\\u=0\\\\v^2=2as\\\\=2*1.54*8\\\\=24.576\\\\v=4.96m/s$

after travelling 4m , its velocity becomes 0

$a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\frac{0-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\frac{-(-4.96)^2}{2*4} \\\\=-3.075m/s^2$

Coefficient of kinetic friction

μ = F/N

$=\frac{ma}{mg} \\\\=\frac{3.075}{10} \\\\=0.31$

Therefore, the Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.31

Your Lead Teaching Assistant is initially seated on the top of a hemispherical ice mound of radius R = 30 m. Approximate the ice

saw5 [17]

Answer:

<em>Height = 5.65 km</em>

Explanation:

$3\pi r^2$ is the circumference or we can say measures the boundary of hemisphere of friction-less ice that he is sitting on.

So, the height will be = 2 x 3.14 x (30)^2 = 5654.7 m = 5.65 km
