A horse draws a sled horizontally across a snow-covered field. The coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is 0.13

5, and the mass of the sled, including the load, is 195.9kg. If the horse moves the sled at a constant speed of 1.785m/s, what is the power needed to accomplish this?

Answer:

P = 462.62 watts

Explanation:

The power needed to accomplish this can be calculated how

P = Fv

    Where F:  The force exerted by the horse

                v:  velocity

The force exerted by the horse is against friction force; how the movement is with constant velocity these forces must be equals, then

Fr = μN

    =μmg

    = (0.135)(195.9)(9.8)

    = 259.17 N

And the power is

P = (259.17)(1.785)

P = 462.62 watts

A 50-kg block is at rest on a 15o slope. A force of 250 N is acting on the block up the slope parallel to it. If the block does
Iteru [2.4K]

The minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the block and the slope is 0.53.

<h3>Minimum coefficient of static friction</h3>

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F - μFs = 0

μFs = F

where;

  • μ is coefficient of static friction
  • Fs is frictional force
  • F is applied force

μ = F/Fs

μ = F/(mgcosθ)

μ = (250)/(50 x 9.8 x cos15)

μ = 0.53

Thus, the minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the block and the slope is 0.53.

To convert centimeters to kilometers, which conversion factors would you need?
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The last option is the only correct one if you like to multiply

The second last option is good if you like to divide.

Explanation:

Each fraction in the last two options has a value of 1

example

dividing by 1

15 cm /(100 cm/ 1 m) = 0.15 m          0.15 m / (1000 m/ 1km) = 0.00015 km

and

multiplying by 1

15 cm(1 m / 100cm) = 0.15 m         0.15m(1 km/1000m) = 0.00015 km

only one of the two fractions in each of the top two options has a value of 1.
