A block of mass 3.6 kg, sliding on a horizontal plane, is released with a velocity of 1.7 m/s. The block slides and stops at a d

istance of 1.6 m beyond the point where it was released. How far would the block have slid if its initial velocity were increased by a factor of 2.8

Answer:

The block would have slid <u>12.6 m</u> if its initial velocity were increased by a factor of 2.8.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the block (m) = 3.6 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 1.7 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Displacement (S) = 1.6 m

First we will find the acceleration of the block.

Using the equation of motion, we have:

v^2=u^2+2aS\\\\a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2S}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'a'. This gives,

a=\frac{0-1.7^2}{2\times 1.6}\\\\a=\frac{-2.89}{3.2}=0.903\ m/s^2

The acceleration is negative as it is resisting the motion.

Now, the initial velocity is increased by a factor of 2.8. So,

New initial velocity = 2.8 × 1.7 = 4.76 m/s

Again using the same equation of motion and expressing the result in terms of 'S'. This gives,

v^2=u^2+2aS\\\\S=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'S'. This gives,

S=\frac{0-4.76^2}{2\times -0.903}\\\\S=\frac{-22.6576}{-1.806}=12.6\ m

Therefore, the block would have slid 12.6 m if its initial velocity were increased by a factor of 2.8

That first one you have selected (3,-3) works in both equations so it's correct.
good job.

you can do this guess and test method with multiple choice answers. If it works in both equations it is the solution. Otherwise use substitution or elimination to combine the two into one equation in only one variable. Then you can solve for the one variable first and use it to solve for the other.

Answer:

The liquid formed from a melted solid has the same mass as the solid has.

Explanation:

As long as no water can escape, the mass of the ice before melting must equal the mass of the liquid water after.

Answer:

Answer:

D) by using military force.

Explanation:

Typically, people like Mussolini and Stalin gain popularity in trying times by promising a type of well-being to a group or nation of stricken people, in which they gain huge amounts of popularity at once. Typically they are then elected to some seat of power, in which, with popularity and most likely the military on their side, they would overthrow the current government. The next step taken is to suppress any opposition or even those who don't fully support the party. This can be given out in two ways, which is through force (especially opposition), or providing benefits to those who are in the party (to draw those who are not exactly supporting to support for the benefits).

With "popular" support, as well as military control, the overthrow is complete, and the group is established in power.

What is the difference between balanced force and action reaction force
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Balanced forces are equal and opposite forces that act on the same object. ... Action-reaction forces are equal and opposite forces that act on different objects, so they don't cancel out. In fact, they often result in motion.
