A 3047.8 kg truck has lost its brakes coming down a mountain. Fortunately, there is a ramp of thick gravel inclined at 9.5 degre
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The work done by the gravel to stop the truck is 520.44 kJ

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: Data given

Mass of the truck = 3047.8 kg

The ramp has an angle of 9.5 °

Velocity of  the truck = 20.68 m/s

distance = 26.6 meters

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate initial kinetic energy

sin 9.5° = 0.165

h = ℓ*sin 9.5° = 26.6*0.165= 4.39 m

Ek = 1/2m*Vo² = 1/2*3047.8*20.68² = 651714.7 Joule = 651.7 kJ  = initial kinetic energy

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate potential energy

Epot = U = m*g*h = 3047.8*9.81*4.39 = 131256.25 Joule = 131.26 kJ

<u>Step 4:</u>  What work is done by the truck on the gravel?  

Frictional energy Ef = 651.7 kJ - 131.26 kJ = 520.44 kJ

Which of these best explains the ability of small insects to walk on the surface of still water?
Furkat [3]
Well, the surface of still water has surface tension. If there isn't enough mass or weight to break the surface tension, the object will float.

Which instrument produces the sound of a single frequency?
notka56 [123]
NO musical instrument produces a 'pure' tone with only a
single frequency in it.

EVERY instrument produces more or less harmonics (multiples)
in addition to the basic frequency it's playing.

The percussion instruments (drums etc) are the richest producers
of bunches of different frequencies.

Fuzzy electric guitars are next richest.

The strings and brass instruments are moderate producers of
harmonics ... I can't remember which is greater than the other.

Then come the woodwinds ... clarinet, oboe, etc.

The closest to 'pure' tones of single frequency are the sounds
made by the flute and piccolo, but even these are far from 'pure'.

The only way to get a true single-frequency sound is from an
electronic 'sine wave' generator.

How is the surface area of an average person is 2m^2 in the chapter pressure
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

We have to show surface area =2m^2,with few conditions that is by considering Force =200000\ N and Pressure =100000\ Pa to be respectively.

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is =10^{5}\ Pa on Earth's surface.

The magnitude of the force exerted on a person by the atmosphere is =2\times 10^{5}\N (or)\ 200kN\ (or)\ 20\ ton.

Now to calculate surface area we can find it from pressure=\frac{force}{area} and re-arranging it to.

area=\frac{force}{pressure}

So plugging the values,

Surface area =\frac{20000}{10000}=2\ m^{2}

Hence from the above calculations we can say that surface area is 2m^2.

So the surface area of an average person can be said to have 2m^2, using the concept of pressure and force.
