Stells [14]3 years ago

The solution for the problem is:

Constant speed means Fnet = 0. 
Let m = mass of wood block and Θ = angle of ramp; then if µk = 0.35 …

The computation would be:


Fnet = 0 = mg (sin Θ) - (µk) (mg) (cos Θ) 
mg (sin Θ) = µk (mg) (cos Θ) 
µk = tan Θ 
Θ = arctan(µk)

= arctan (0.35)

≈ 19.3°

A 3.50-meter length of wire with a cross-sectional area of 3.14 × 10-6 meter2 is at 20° Celsius. If the wire has a resistance of
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m

Explanation:

Resistivity is given by \rho=\frac {AR}{L} where A is cross-sectional area, R is resistance, L is the length and \rho is the reistivity. Substituting 0.0625 for R, 3.14 × 10-6 for A and 3.5 m for L then the resistivity is equivalent to

\rho=\frac {3.14\times 10^{-6}\times 0.0625}{3.5}=5.60714285714285714285714285714285714285\times 10^{-8}\approx 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m

A student has a rectangular block. It is 2 cm wide, 2 cm tall, and 25 cm long. It has a mass of 600 g. First, calculate the volu
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

6g/cm³

Explanation:

Density is the mass per unit volume of any substance. To solve this problem:

   

   Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}  

 Since mass = 600g

Let us find the volume;

    Volume  = length x width x height

   Volume  = 25cm x 2cm x 2cm  = 100cm³  

Therefore;

         Density  = \frac{600}{100}    = 6g/cm³

Answer:

Energy is the ability for an object to do work.

Kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses while in motion.

Stored Energy = Potential Energy.

Speed is a measurement of how quickly something is able to move or operate.
