Answer:

20 N

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the box:

- The force of push, F, forward, of magnitude F = 20 N

- The force of friction, F_f, backward

So, the equation of motion for the box is

F-F_f = ma

where

m = 5.0 kg is the mass of the box

a is its acceleration

The box is sliding at constant velocity: this means that its acceleration is zero

a = 0

So, the equation becomes

F-F_f = 0

Therefore, we can find the magnitude of the force of friction:

F_f = F =  20 N

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

a) a= 8.33 m/s²,    T = 12.495 N , b)    a = 2.45 m / s²

Explanation:

a) this is an exercise of Newton's second law. As the upper load is secured by a cable, it cannot be moved, so the lower load is determined by the maximum acceleration.

We apply Newton's second law to the lower charge

            fr₁ + fr₂ = ma

The equation for the force of friction is

          fr = μ N

Y Axis

         N - W₁ –W₂ = 0

         N = W₁ + W₂

         N = (m₁ + m₂) g

Since the beams are the same, it has the same mass

        N = 2 m g

We replace

           μ₁ 2mg + μ₂ mg = m a

          a = (2μ₁ + μ₂) g

          a = (2 0.30 + 0.25) 9.8

          a= 8.33 m/s²

Let's look for cable tension with beam 2

          T = m₂ a

          T = 1500 8.33

          T = 12.495 N

b) For maximum deceleration the cable loses tension (T = 0 N), so as this beam has less friction is the one that will move first, we are assuming that the rope is horizontal

           fr = m₂ a₂

           N- w₂ = 0

          N = W₂ = mg

          μ₂ mg = m a₂

          a = μ₂ g

          a = 0.25 9.8

          a = 2.45 m / s²

1. What is the kinetic Energy of a 1500kg object moving at 21 m/s?
Wewaii [24]
The formula for working out kinetic energy is

=122

KE = kinetic energy
m = mass of a body
v = velocity of a body


kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.

For the first one I think :
Answer:
KE = 330750 J

I’m not sure about the second one- sorry

The third is
Answer:
KE = 41454 J

Hope it helps and it is correct, sorry if it isn’t !

A jet plane flying 600 m/s experiences an acceleration of 4g when pulling out of the dive. What is the radius of curvature of th
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

91.84 m/s²

Explanation:

velocity, v = 600 m/s

acceleration, a = 4 g = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 m/s^2

Let the radius of the loop is r.

he experiences a centripetal force.

centripetal acceleration,

a = v² / r

39.2 x r = 600 x 600

r = 3600 / 39.2

r = 91.84 m/s²

Thus, the radius of the loop is 91.84 m/s².
