A sled of mass 2.12 kg has an initial speed of 5.49 m/s across a horizontal surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction between

Darya [45]

Answer:

The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.12 kg

Initial speed = 5.49 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.229

Distance = 3.89 m

We need to calculate the acceleration of sled

Using formula of acceleration

$a = \dfrac{F}{m}$

Where, F = frictional force

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

$a=\dfrac{\mu mg}{m}$

$a=\mu g$

$a=0.229\times9.8$

$a=2.244\ m/s^2$

We need to calculate the speed of the sled

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2-2as$

Where, v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

s = distance

Put the value in the equation

$v ^2=(5.49)^2-2\times2.244\times3.89$

$v=\sqrt{(5.49)^2-2\times2.244\times3.89}$

$v=3.56\ m/s$

Hence, The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s.

1.)A tank travels at a rate of 10.0 km/hr for 12.00 minutes, then at 15.0 km/hr for 8.00

rosijanka [135]

12.00 min = 0.2 hr

8.00 min = 0.15 hr

Total distance:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) + (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 8.25 km

Average speed:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr + 20.0 km/hr) / 3

= 15 km/hr

Change in position:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) - (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 0.25 km

Average velocity:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr - 20.0 km/hr) / 3

≈ 1.67 m/s

a container of water is knocked off a 10.0 meter high ledge with a horizontal velocity of 1.00 meters/second. calculate the time

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.43 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the container to reach the ground is determined only by the vertical motion of the container, which is a free-fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion with a constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground.

The vertical distance covered by an object in free fall is given by

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

where

u = 0 is the initial vertical speed

t is the time

a= g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

since u=0, it can be rewritten as

$S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

And substituting S=10.0 m, we can solve for t, to find the duration of the fall:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10.0 m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.43 s$
