How to solve for the coefficient of friction

Physics
1 answer:
astraxan [27]3 years ago

Their are two coefficients of friction, static and kinetic, regardless, they have basically the same formula:

u*N = F... aka
coefficient of friction*normal force = force of friction

Hope that helps!

A force causes a mass of 4 kg to have an acceleration of 8 m/s2. Suppose something causes the mass to be one-quarter of its orig
solniwko [45]

Explanation:

From Newton's second law:

F = ma

Given that m = 4 kg and a = 8 m/s²:

F = (4 kg) (8 m/s²)

F = 32 N

If m is reduced to 1 kg and F stays at 32 N:

32 N = (1 kg) a

a = 32 m/s²

So the acceleration increases by a factor of 4.

A child in a tree house uses a rope attached to a basket to lift a 24 N dog upward through a distance of 4.9 m into the house.
jenyasd209 [6]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

117.6 Joules

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Force of the dog is 24 N
  • Distance upward is 4.9 m

We are required to calculate the work done

  • Work done is the product of force and distance
  • That is; Work done = Force × distance
  • It is measured in Joules.

In this case;

Force applied is equivalent to the weight of the dog.

Work done = 24 N × 4.9 m

                  = 117.6 Joules

Hence, the work done in lifting the dog is 117.6 Joules

A cannon is fired straight up into the air. If the cannon ball comes back down to the launch point in 5 seconds, what was the ma
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

30.63 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s

Maximum height (h) =.?

Next, we shall determine the time taken to reach the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s

Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height =.?

T = 2t

5 = 2t

Divide both side by 2

t = 5/2

t = 2.5 s

Thus, the time (t) taken to reach the maximum height is 2.5 s

Finally, we shall determine the maximum height reached by the ball as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height = 2.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =.?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 2.5²

h = 4.9 × 6.25

h = 30.625 ≈ 30.63 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the cannon ball is 30.63 m

Suppose that the current in the solenoid is i(t). The self-inductance L is related to the self-induced EMF E(t) by the equation
Artemon [7]

Answer:

L =   μ₀ n r / 2I

Explanation:

This exercise we must relate several equations, let's start writing the voltage in a coil

        E_{L} = - L dI / dt

 

Let's use Faraday's law

       E = - d Ф_B / dt

in the case of the coil this voltage is the same, so we can equal the two relationships

        - d Ф_B / dt = - L dI / dt

The magnetic flux is the sum of the flux in each turn, if there are n turns in the coil

        n d Ф_B = L dI

we can remove the differentials

      n Ф_B = L I

magnetic flux is defined by

     Ф_B = B . A

in this case the direction of the magnetic field is along the coil and the normal direction to the area as well, therefore the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

      n B A = L I

the loop area is

      A = π R²

     

we substitute

       n B π R² = L I                    (1)

To find the magnetic field in the coil let's use Ampere's law

        ∫ B. ds = μ₀ I

where B is the magnetic field and s is the current circulation, in the coil the current circulates along the length of the coil

           s = 2π R

we solve

              B 2ππ R =  μ₀ I

              B =  μ₀ I / 2πR

we substitute in

       n ( μ₀ I / 2πR) π R² = L I

       n  μ₀ R / 2 = L I

       L =   μ₀ n r / 2I
