A man exerts a constant force to pull a 51-kg box across a floor at constant speed. He exerts this force by attaching a rope to

the box and pulling so that the rope makes a constant angle of 36.9∘ above the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction for the box-floor interface is μk = 0.12. What is the work done by the man if he moves the box 10m

Answer:

W=561.41 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 51 kg

μk = 0.12

θ = 36.9∘

Lets F is the force applied by man

Given that block is moving at constant speed it mans that acceleration is zero.

Horizontal force = F cos θ

Vertical force = F sinθ

Friction force Fr=  μk N

N +  F sinθ = m g

N = m g -  F sinθ

Fr =  μk (m g -  F sinθ)

For equilibrium

F cos θ =  μk (m g -  F sinθ)

F ( cos θ +μk  sinθ)  = μk (m g

Now by putting the values

F ( cos 36.9∘ + 0.12 x sin36.9∘)=0.12 x 51 x 10

F= 70.2 N

We know that Work

W= F cos θ .d

W= 70.2 x cos 36.9∘ x 10

W=561.41 J

A storm 10.0 km in diameter has wind speeds of 10.0 m/s. What is its angular velocity in radians per second
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The value is w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the storm is  d =  10.0 \  km  =  10 000 \  m

   The wind speed is  v  =  10.0 \  m/s

   

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as

       r =  \frac{d}{2}

=>  r =  \frac{10000}{2}

=>    r =  5000 \ m

Generally the angular velocity is mathematically represented as  

        w= \frac{v}{r}

=>     w= \frac{10}{5000}

=>     w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. The sound has maximum intensity when the speakers are 20 cm apart. The sound
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a. Wavelength = λ = 20 cm

b. Next distance of maximum intensity will be 40 cm

Explanation:

a. The distance between the two speakers is 20cm. SInce the intensity is maximum which refers that we have constructive interference and the phase difference must be an even multiple of π and equivalent path difference is nλ.

Now when distance increases upto 30 cm between the speakers, the sound intensity becomes zero which means that there is destructive interference and equivalent path is now increased from nλ to nλ + λ/2.

This we get the equation:

(nλ + λ/2) - nλ = 30-20

λ/2 = 10

λ = 20 cm

b. at what distance, sound intensity will be maximum again.

For next point calculation for maximum sound intensity, the path difference must be increased (n+1) λ. The distance must increase by λ/2 from the point of zero intensity.

= 30 + λ/2

= 30 + 20/2

=30+10

=40 cm
