A block is moving at constant speed due to a horizontal force pulling to the right. The coefficient of kinetic friction, Hk, bet

ween the block and the surface is 0.20 and the mag- nitude of the frictional force is 100.0 N, what is the weight of the block? (a 400 N (b) 600 N (c) 500 N (d) 267 N

Answer:

c) 500 N

Explanation:

If the block moves with constant speed there is no acceleration. We draw a free body diagram and define the forces on the body.

$F_{f}=FrictionForce\\F_{e}=ExternalForce\\N=NormalForce\\W=Weight\\$

The equation for the frictional force is:

$F_{f}=N*H_{k}$

Where $H_{k}$ is the kinetic friction coefficient. We write the equilibrium equation in the y direcction:

$\sum F_{y}\rightarrow N-W=0\\N=W$

We replace this result in the equation for the frictional force:

$F_{f}=W*H_{k}$

We replace the data given by the exercise and find the weight

$W=\frac{F_{f}}{H_{k}}\\W=\frac{100}{0.2}=500\: N$

You lift a 10-kg box to a height of 1m. How much work do you do on the box when you lift it from the ground? (g= 9.81 m/s2)

Andreyy89

Answer:

98.1 Joule

Explanation:

Solution,

⇒Mass(m)=10kg

⇒Weight(F)=Mg=10×9.81=98.1N

⇒Distance(d)=1m

Now,

Work done=F×d

=98.1×1

=98.1J

the sole of a tennis shoe has a surface area of 0.0290 m^2. if it is worn by a 65.0 kg person, what pressure does the shoe exert

AURORKA [14]

Answer: 21965.517 Pa

Explanation:

Pressure $P$ is the force $F$ exerted by a gas, a liquid or a solid on a surface (or area) $A$ , its unit is Pascal $Pa$ which is equal to $N/m^{2}$ and its formula is:

$P=\frac{F}{A}$ (1)

In this case we have the surface of a sole of a tennis shoe:

$A=0.0290 m^{2}$ (2)

And the mass $m$ of the person who wears it:

$m=65 kg$

On the other hand, we know the weight is the force $F$ the Earth exerts on people and objects due gravity $g$ :

$F=m.g=(65 kg)(9.8m/^{2})$

$F=637N$ (3)

Substituting (2) and (3) in (1):

$P=\frac{637N}{0.0290 m^{2}}$ (4)

Finally:

$P=21965.517 Pa$ This is the pressure the shoe exert on the ground

What is the energy of a photon that has the same wavelength as an electron having a kinetic energy of 15 ev?

serg [7]

Answer: $6.268(10)^{-16}J$

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an electron $K_{e}$ is given by the following equation:

$K_{e}=\frac{(p_{e})^{2} }{2m_{e}}$ (1)

Where:

$K_{e}=15eV=2.403^{-18}J=2.403^{-18}\frac{kgm^{2}}{s^{2}}$

$p_{e}$ is the momentum of the electron

$m_{e}=9.11(10)^{-31}kg$ is the mass of the electron

From (1) we can find $p_{e}$ :

$p_{e}=\sqrt{2K_{e}m_{e}}$ (2)

$p_{e}=\sqrt{2(2.403^{-18}J)(9.11(10)^{-31}kg)}$

$p_{e}=2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}$ (3)

Now, in order to find the wavelength of the electron $\lambda_{e}$ with this given kinetic energy (hence momentum), we will use the De Broglie wavelength equation:

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{h}{p_{e}}$ (4)

Where:

$h=6.626(10)^{-34}J.s=6.626(10)^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s}$ is the Planck constant

So, we will use the value of $p_{e}$ found in (3) for equation (4):

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{6.626(10)^{-34}J.s}{2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}}$

$\lambda_{e}=3.168(10)^{-10}m$ (5)

We are told the wavelength of the photon $\lambda_{p}$ is the same as the wavelength of the electron:

$\lambda_{e}=\lambda_{p}=3.168(10)^{-10}m$ (6)

Therefore we will use this wavelength to find the energy of the photon $E_{p}$ using the following equation:

$E_{p}=\frac{hc}{lambda_{p}}$ (7)

Where $c=3(10)^{8}m/s$ is the spped of light in vacuum

$E_{p}=\frac{(6.626(10)^{-34}J.s)(3(10)^{8}m/s)}{3.168(10)^{-10}m}$

Finally:

$E_{p}=6.268(10)^{-16}J$
