The force of friction on the box is 8.82 N.

The force of friction is given by the formula

F=μN

Here N is the normal force of the box=mg=3*9.8=29.4 N

Now the static friction force on the box is=0.4*29.4=11.76 N

Since the box is applied with the horizontal pull of 15 N, which is greater than the static friction, therefore the box must be in the moving condition, in that case there is dynamic friction force is applied on the box=0.3*29.4=8.8 N

Therefore the force of friction on the box is 8.8 N.

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 m/s^2

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles =  40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles  =  64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = \frac{1}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{30}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{1}{2}hours

Now

Average velocity = \frac{Speed}{time}

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = \frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}

Average velocity = 64.3738 \times 2

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting  velocity to m/s

128.74  \times \frac{5}{18}

=>35.75 m/s----------------------------------------------------------(1)

kinetic energy  K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Substituting the values,

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(35.75)^2

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(1278.06)

K= \frac{1500 \times (1278.06)}{2}

K= \frac{1917093.75}{2}

K=958546.875 Joule---------------------------------------------(2)

(c)When the driver applies the brake, it takes 15 seconds to stop. How far does the car travel (in meters) while stopping

Lets use Distance formula,

S= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substituting the known values,

s= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

s= (37.75)(15)+\frac{1}{2}a(15)^2

s=566.25+\frac{1}{2}a(225)

s=566.25+\frac{(225a)}{2}-------------------------------------(3)

(D) What is the average acceleration of the car (in m/s2) during braking?

Using the formula

v=u +at

re arranging the formula we get,

a = \frac{v - u}{t}

Substituting the values

a = \frac{0 - 35.75}{15}

a = \frac{- 35.75}{15}

a= - 2.38 m/s^2----------------------------------------(4)

Now substituting 4 in 3 we get

s=566.25+\frac{(225( - 2.38)}{2}

s=566.25+\frac{-535.5}{2}

s=536.25-267.75

s=268.8m--------------------------------------------------------------(5)

A tugboat tows a ship with a constant force of magnitude F1. The increase in the ship's speed during a 10 s interval is 5.0 km/h
Ratling [72]

Answer

given,

time  = 10 s

ship's speed = 5 Km/h

F = m a

a is the acceleration and m is mass.

In the first case

F₁=m x a₁

where a₁ =  difference in velocity / time

F₁ is constant acceleration is also a constant.

Δv₁ = 5 x 0.278

Δv₁ = 1.39 m/s

a_1=\dfrac{1.39}{10}

a₁ = 0.139 m/s²

F₂ =m x a₂

F₃ = F₂ + F₁

Δv₃ = 19 x 0.278

Δv₃ = 5.282 m/s

a₃=Δv₂ / t

a_3=\dfrac{5.282}{10}

a₃ = 0.5282 m²/s

m a₃=m a₁ + m a₂

a₃ = a₂ + a₁

0.5282 = a₂ + 0.139

a₂=0.3892 m²/s

F₂ = m x 0.3892...........(1)

F₁ = m x 0.139...............(2)

F₂/F₁

ratio = \dfrac{0.3892}{0.139}

ratio = 2.8

If an object went from 0 m/s to 6 m/s in 1.7 seconds after a 10 N force was applied to it; what is the object's mass? No links p
Mashcka [7]

The force acting on the object is constant, so the acceleration of the object is also constant. By definition of average acceleration, this acceleration was

<em>a</em> = ∆<em>v</em> / ∆<em>t</em> = (6 m/s - 0) / (1.7 s) ≈ 3.52941 m/s²

By Newton's second law, the magnitude of the force <em>F</em> is proportional to the acceleration <em>a</em> according to

<em>F</em> = <em>m a</em>

where <em>m</em> is the object's mass. Solving for <em>m</em> gives

<em>m</em> = <em>F</em> / <em>a</em> = (10 N) / (3.52941 m/s²) ≈ 2.8 kg

What is the KE if a 10kg mass traveling at 5 m/s
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer: KE = 25 J

Explanation: You must use the formula

KE = 1/2 m v²

to solve this problem.

KE = 1/2 (10 Kg) (5 m/s)

KE = 1/2 (50 kgm/s)

KE = 25 J

Energy slowly leaks outward through the diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons
stepan [7]

Energy slowly leaks outward through the radiative diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons.

<h3>What is radiative diffusion?</h3>

A radiation zone is a layer of a star's core where energy is mostly carried toward the outside by radiative diffusion and thermal conduction rather than convection.

As photons, energy passes through the radiation zone as electromagnetic radiation.

The radiative diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons progressively drains energy outward.

Hence,radiative diffusion is correct answer.
