A block of mass 4 kilograms is initially moving at 5m/s on a horizontal surface. There is friction between the block and the sur
emmasim [6.3K]

• Net vertical force on the block:

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

(<em>n</em> = magnitude of normal force, <em>w</em> = weight)

<em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>m g</em>

(<em>m</em> = mass, <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s²)

<em>n</em> = (4 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 39.2 N

• Net horizontal force:

∑ <em>F</em> = -<em>f</em> = <em>m a</em>

(<em>f</em> = mag. of friction, <em>a</em> = acceleration)

We have <em>f</em> = <em>µ</em> <em>n</em> = 0.5 (39.2 N) = 19.6 N, so

-19.6 N = (4 kg) <em>a</em>

<em>a</em> = -4.9 m/s²

With this acceleration, the block comes to a rest from an initial speed of 5 m/s, so that it travels a distance ∆<em>x</em> in this time such that

0² - (5 m/s)² = 2 (-4.9 m/s²) ∆<em>x</em>

∆<em>x</em> = (25 m²/s²) / (9.8 m/s²) ≈ 2.55 m ≈ 2.6 m

What happens to the mechanical energy of an apple as it falls from a tree?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

When the apple falls from the tree, it has some gravitational potential energy due to its height. Now, When it starts falling, the Gravitation Potential energy will starts converting into the Kinetic Energy. When the apple is about to strikes the ground, the Gravitational Potential energy have been converted into the Kinetic Energy.
