When an object travels a large distance in a small amount of time, the object's speed is

If I were to go from the United States to China in one second, that's a large distance in an incredibly short time. I'd say that's pretty fast.

If I were to go from my room to the door of my room in a year, then that would be unbearably slow.

A 300 kg piano needs to be moved to the other side of the room. The maximum static frictional force is equal to 90 N and the kin

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

a = 0.1 m/s²

Explanation:

If the maximum static frictional force is 90 N, this means that any applied force that will overcome this force, will cause the piano to slide, so kinetic frictional force applies.
Under these conditions, the net force in the horizontal direction is just the difference between the applied force (which is larger that the static friction force) and the kinetic frictional force, as follows:

$F_{net} = F_{app} -F_{frk} = 100 N - 70 N = 30 N (1)$

By the same token, according Newton's 2nd Law, this force is just equal to the product of the mass of the piano, times the acceleration, as follows:

$F_{net} = m* a = 300 Kg * a = 30 N (2)$

Solving for a:

$a = \frac{F_{net}}{m} = \frac{30 N}{300kg} = 0.1 m/s2 (3)$

Two blocks joined by a string have masses of 6 and 9 kg. They rest on a frictionless horizontal surface. A 2nd string, attached

Tom [10]

Answer:

12N

Explanation:

Suppose the string mass is negligible, the total mass of the 2 block system is 6 + 9 = 15 kg

So the acceleration of the system when subjected to 30N force is

a = F / M = 30 / 15 = 2 m/s2

So both blocks would have the same acceleration, however, the force acting on the 6kg block would have a magnitude of

f = am = 2 * 6 = 12N

This is the tension in the string between the blocks

How do i find stretch? The problem in questioning has already given me the elastic energy and k-value, but I have no idea how to

finlep [7]

Answer:

Stretch can be obtained using the Elastic potential energy formula.

The expression to find the stretch (x) is $x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}$

Explanation:

Given:

Elastic potential energy (EPE) of the spring mass system and the spring constant (k) are given.

To find: Elongation in the spring (x).

We can find the elongation or stretch of the spring using the formula for Elastic Potential Energy (EPE).

The formula to find EPE is given as:

$EPE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

Rewriting the above expression in terms of 'x', we get:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}$

Example:

If EPE = 100 J and spring constant, k = 2 N/m.

Elongation or stretch is given as:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}\\\\x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 100}{2}}\\\\x=\sqrt{100}=10\ m$

Therefore, the stretch in the spring is 10 m.

So, stretch in the spring can be calculated using the formula for Elastic Potential Energy.

Energy transformations when you cook sausages on a campfire burning wood

Rina8888 [55]

<span>Actually in this case heat energy is being transferred. Heat energy or thermal energy is transferred from the burning of wood to the sausages for it to be cooked. The sausage is being heated by the fire and is absorbing the heat or thermal energy.</span>
