The maximum force of static friction is the product of normal force (P) and the coefficient of static friction (c). In a flat surface, normal force is equal to the weight (W) of the body. 
 
                        P = W = mass x acceleration due to gravity
    
                    P = (0.3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 2.94 kg m/s² = 2.94 N

Solving for the static friction force (F), 
                                              F = P x c 
 
                                      F = (2.94 N) x 0.6 = 1.794 N

Therefore, the maximum force of static friction is 1.794 N.

A driver in a car traveling at a speed of 50 mi/h sees a deer 50 m away on the road. Calculate the minimum constant acceleration
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

a= - 0.79 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Speed ,u = 20 mi/h

We know that

1 mi/h= 0.44 m/s

Therefore ,u = 8.94 m/s

Distance ,s= 50 m

Lets take the acceleration of the car = a m/s²

The final speed of the car ,v = 0 m/s

We know that

v²= u² + 2 a s

Now by putting the values

0²= 8.94² + 2 x a x 50

a=-\dfrac{8.94^2}{2\times 50}\ m/s^2

a= - 0.79 m/s²

Therefore the acceleration will be - 0.79 m/s².

A supersonic jet is at an altitude of 14 kilometers flying at 1,500 kilometers per hour toward the east. At this velocity, how f
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The jet will fly 2400 km.

Explanation:

Given the velocity of the jet flying toward the east is 1,500 kmph toward the east.

We need to find the distance covered in 1.6 hours.

In our problem we are given speed and time, we can easily determine the distance using the following formula.

Distance=Speed\times Time

Distance=1500\times 1.6=2400\ km

So, the supersonic jet will travel 2400 km in 1.6 hours toward the east from its starting point.

A 1.1-kg uniform bar of metal is 0.40 m long and has a diameter of 2.0 cm. When someone bangs one end of this bar, a 1.5 MHz sho
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

\lambda = 2.22\times 10^{-3}\ m

Explanation:

Given,

mass of the bar = 1.1 Kg

length of rod, l = 0.40 m

diameter of the rod, d = 2 cm

frequency, f = 1.5 MHz

time, t = 0.12 ms

wavelength of the shock wave = ?

Speed of the wave =\dfrac{L}{t}=\dfrac{0.40}{0.12\times 10^{-3}}

   v = 3333.33 m/s

wavelength of the wave

\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}= \dfrac{3333.33}{1.5\times 10^6}

\lambda = 2.22\times 10^{-3}\ m
