Not sure what your question means but the nearest star is Alpha Centauri which is about 4.2 light years (ly) away.  This is roughly 4x10¹³ km away.  A billion is 10⁹ so this is 4x10⁴ larger than a billion.  I'd say the last one then...

A force of 10 lb is required to hold a spring stretched 4 in. beyond its natural length. How much work W is done in stretching i
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

114.44 J

Explanation:

From Hook's Law,

F = ke................. Equation 1

Where F = Force required to stretch the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension.

make k the subject of the equation

k = F/e.............. Equation 2

Given: F = 10 lb = (10×4.45) N = 44.5 N, e = 4 in = (4×0.254) = 1.016 m.

Substitute into equation 2

k = 44.5/1.016

k = 43.799 N/m

Work done in stretching the 9 in beyond its natural length

W = 1/2ke²................. Equation 3

Given: e = 9 in = (9×0.254) = 2.286 m, k = 43.799 N/m

Substitute into equation 3

W = 1/2×43.799×2.286²

W = 114.44 J

Answer:

SKID

Explanation:

In general, airplane tracks are flat, they do not have cant, consequently the friction force is what keeps the bicycle in the circle.

Let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the horizontal x-axis and the vertical y-axis.

Y axis y

     N- W = 0

     N = W

X axis (radial)

        fr = m a

the acceleration in the curve is centripetal

         a = \frac{v^2}{r}

the friction force has the expression

        fr = μ N

we substitute

       μ mg = m v²/r

       v = \sqrt{\mu g r}

we calculate

      v = \sqrt{0.1 \ 9.8 \ 3}

      v = 1,715 m / s

to compare with the cyclist's speed let's reduce to the SI system

        v₀ = 18 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1 h / 3600 s) = 5 m / s

We can see that the speed that the cyclist is carrying is greater than the speed that the curve can take, therefore the cyclist will SKID

A 5 kg block is sliding down a plane inclined at 30^0 with a constant velocity of 4 m/s. To determine the coefficient of frictio
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The necessary information is if the forces acting on the block are in equilibrium

The coefficient of friction is 0.577

Explanation:

Where the forces acting on the object are in equilibrium, we have;

At constant velocity, the net force acting on the particle = 0

However, the frictional force is then given as

F = mg sinθ

Where:

m = Mass of the block

g = Acceleration due to gravity and

θ = Angle of inclination of the slope

F = 5×9.81×sin 30 = 24.525 N

Therefore, the coefficient of friction is given as

24.525 N = μ×m×g × cos θ = μ × 5 × 9.81 × cos 30 = μ × 42.479

μ × 42.479 N= 24.525 N

∴ μ = 24.525 N ÷ 42.479 N = 0.577
