A rare and valuable antique chest is being moved into a truck using a 4.00 m long ramp. the kj weight of the chest plus packing

material is 1,500 n. if the truck bed is 1.00 m above the ground, find the work done by the movers as they slide the chest up the ramp if the coefficient of friction between the chest and the ramp is 0.200.

First let us calculate for the angle of inclination using the sin function,

sin θ = 1 m / 4 m

θ = 14.48°

 

Then we calculate the work done by the movers using the formula:

W = Fnet * d

 

So we must calculate for the value of Fnet first. Fnet is force due to weight minus the frictional force.

Fnet = m g sinθ – μ m g cosθ

Fnet = 1,500 sin14.48 – 0.2 * 1,500 * cos14.48

Fnet = 84.526 N

 

So the work exerted is equal to:

W = 84.526 N * 4 m

<span>W = 338.10 J</span>

How is it possible to get three precise but inaccurate measurements of the same volume of water
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
The inaccurate measurements must be similar to the other two measurements (ex; 590, 589, 599), but different from the actual volume of water. (Ex; the actual volume is let say.. 100, but you measured 50, 49, 40)

1. What is wave motion
nadya68 [22]
A wave is basically propagation of disturbances—that is, deviations from a state of rest or equilibrium—from place to place in a regular and organized way. Most familiar are surface waves on water, but both sound and light travel as wavelike disturbances, and the motion of all subatomic particles exhibits wavelike properties.

A chair of weight 70.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F =
Annette [7]

Answer:

94.67 N

Explanation:

Consider a free body diagram with force, F of 41 N applied at an angle of 37 degrees while the weight acts downwards. Resolving the force into vertical and horizontal components, we obtain a free body diagram attached.

At equilibrium, normal reaction is equal to the sum of the weight and the vertical component of the force applied. Applying the condition of equilibrium along the vertical direction.  

\begin{array}{l}\\\Sigma {F_y} = 0\\\\N - W - F\sin \theta = 0\\\\N = W + F\sin \theta \\\end{array}

Substituting 70 N for W, 41 N for F and \theta for 37 degrees

N=70+41sin37=94.67441595  N and rounding off to 2 decimal places

N=94.67 N

When performing the spike the ball should be hit with the ?
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

When you are performing spike it's most effective to strike the ball from the right or left side at a sharp downward angle. Whether you are spiking the ball from the right or left front position, position yourself behind the 10-foot line (attack line), which is the line that is about four steps away from the net.
