A student gives a 5.0 kg box a brief push causing the box to move with an initial speed of 8.0 m/s along a rough surface. The bo

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The time taken to stop the box equals 1.33 seconds.

Explanation:

Since frictional force always acts opposite to the motion of the box we can find the acceleration that the force produces using newton's second law of motion as shown below:

$F=mass\times acceleration\\\\\therefore acceleration=\frac{Force}{mass}$

Given mass of box = 5.0 kg

Frictional force = 30 N

thus

$acceleration=\frac{30}{5}=6m/s^{2}$

Now to find the time that the box requires to stop can be calculated by first equation of kinematics

The box will stop when it's final velocity becomes zero

$v=u+at\\\\0=8-6\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{8}{6}=4/3seconds$

Here acceleration is taken as negative since it opposes the motion of the box since frictional force always opposes motion.

A scientist designs an experiment in which a light source is pointed at a substance and a light detector is placed on the opposi

Lostsunrise [7]

The answer is D. Either absorbed or reflected. The reason is because if no light is being shown on the other side, the substance is not letting any light pass through. Since we do not know anything else about the substance, we do not know which one of the two it is doing. The scientist would not see any light on the detector if 100% of the light is reflected and the same thing would happen if 100% of the light was absorbed.
