suppose you have a 69.0-kg wooden crate resting on a wood floor. what maximum force can you exert horizontally on the crate with

marusya05 [52]

You've got a 69.0-kg wooden crate on a wooden floor. The box can withstand a force of up to 338N in a horizontal direction without being moved. Following this, the wooden creates moving stats.

In order to calculate the friction coefficient, divide the force pushing two objects together by the force acting between them. friction coefficient might be 0 or one. They can be split into two categories: friction coefficient that is static. Kinetic friction coefficient (also known as sliding coefficient of friction).

the acceleration brought on by the gravitational pull of large masses generally, gravitational , often known as the acceleration brought on by the Earth's gravitational pull and centrifugal force,

F= friction coefficient *M*g

F= 0.5*69*9.8

F=338N

2.5 gram sample of a radioactive element was formed in a 1960 explosion of an atomic bomb at Johnson Island in the Pacific Test

kow [346]

Answer:

0.15625 grams

Explanation:

Half life: It is related to the decay of radioactive material. The duration in which half of the material will be degraded/decayed. That means after half life 50% of the radioactive material will be left. Here the half life is 28 years.

Initial quantity of the sample: 2.5 grams.

After 28 years, the leftover quantity = 1.25 grams

After 56 years, the leftover quantity = 0.625 grams

After 84 Years, the leftover quantity = 0.3125 grams

After 112 years, the leftover quantity = 0.15625 grams

A high-jumper, having just cleared the bar, lands on an air mattress and comes to rest. Had she landed directly on the hard grou

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

e. the air mattress exerts the same impulse, but a smaller net avg force, on the high-jumper than hard-ground.

Explanation:

This is according to the Newton's second law and energy conservation that the force exerted by the hard-ground is more than the force exerted by the mattress.

The hard ground stops the moving mass by its sudden reaction in the opposite direction of impact force whereas the mattress takes a longer time to stop the motion of same mass in a longer time leading to lesser average reaction force.

Mathematical expression for the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

$F=\frac{dp}{dt}$ ............................................(1)

where:

dp = change in momentum

dt = time taken to change the momentum

We know, momentum:

$p=m.v$

Now, equation (1) becomes:

$F=\frac{d(m.v)}{dt}$

∵mass is constant at speeds v << c (speed of light)

$\therefore F=m.\frac{dv}{dt}$

and, $\frac{dv}{dt} =a$

where: a = acceleration

$\Rightarrow F=m.a$

also

$F\propto \frac{1}{dt}$

so, more the time, lesser the force.

& Impulse:

$I=F.dt$

$I=m.a.dt$

$I=m.\frac{dv}{dt}.dt$

$I=m.dv=dp$

∵Initial velocity and final velocity(=0), of a certain mass is same irrespective of the stopping method.

So, the impulse in both the cases will be same.

Which of the following scenarios will cause the current to stop flowing within a circuit?

Lelechka [254]

C is correct. Only a closed circuit can carry current, opening a switch disconnects the circuit and stops current from flowing. Remember, all current flows in loops, if you can't make a loop out of it, current can't flow, and opening a switch, assuming no other paths for current exist, will completely stop the current.
