A 53 kg crate is at rest on a level floor, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.36. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

42.6 m

Explanation:

mass of crate m = 53 kg

coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.36

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Force, F = 372.098 N

Net force, f = F - friction force

f = 372.098 - μ m x g = 372.098 - 0.36 x 53 x 9.8

f = 185.114 N

acceleration, a = f / m = 185.114 / 53 = 3.49 m/s^2

initial velocity, u = 0

time, t = 4.94 s

s = ut + 1/2 at^2

s = 0 + 1/2 x 3.49 x 4.94 x 4.94

s = 42.6 m

A 170 kg astronaut (including space suit) acquires a speed of 2.25 m/s by pushing off with his legs from a 2600 kg space capsule
saw5 [17]

Explanation:

Mass of the astronaut, m₁ = 170 kg

Speed of astronaut, v₁ = 2.25 m/s

mass of space capsule, m₂ = 2600 kg

Let v₂ is the speed of the space capsule. It can be calculated using the conservation of momentum as :

initial momentum = final momentum

Since, initial momentum is zero. So,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=0

170\ kg\times 2.25\ m/s+2600\ kg\times v_2=0

v_2=-0.17\ m/s

So, the change in speed of the space capsule is 0.17 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Heat flows into a gas in a piston and work is performed on the gas by its surroundings. The amount of work done is equal to the
inna [77]

Answer:

The Internal energy of the gas did not change

Explanation:

In this situation the Internal energy of the gas did not change and this is because according the the first law of thermodynamics

Δ U = Q - W  ------ ( 1 )

Δ U  = change in internal energy

Q = heat added

W = work done

since Q = W.  the value of ΔU  will be = zero   i.e. No change
