<span> The box is exerting a force of its weight. So we'll use W=mg (Note: you can use the notation F=ma, doesn't matter since weight IS a force.) We can call g negative since it's directed down towards the earth.
</span>
<span>W = 5kg(-9.8 m/(s^2)) = -49 N
</span>
<span>Thus, the box exerts a force of 49N downwards. </span>

7. A block of copper of unknown mass has an initial temperature of 65.4oC. The copper is immersed in a beaker containing 95.7g o

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

37.34372 kg

Explanation:

m = Mass

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature

1 denotes water

2 denotes copper

c = Heat capacity

Heat is given by

$Q=mc\Delta T$

In this case the heat transfer will be equal

$m_1c_1\Delta T_1=m_2c_2\Delta T_2\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{m_1c_1\Delta T_1}{c_2\Delta T_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{95.7\times 4.18(24.2-22.7)}{0.39(65.4-24.2)}\\\Rightarrow m_2=37.34372\ kg$

Mass of copper block is 37.34372 kg

A car advertisement states that a certain car can accelerate from rest to

kaheart [24]

Answer:

a = 2.22 [m/s^2]

Explanation:

First we have to convert from kilometers per hour to meters per second

$40 [\frac{km}{h}]*[\frac{1h}{3600s}]*[\frac{1000m}{1km}] = 11.11 [m/s]$

We have to use the following kinematics equation:

$v_{f}= v_{i}+(a*t)$

where:

Vf = final velocity = 11.11 [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 0

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

t = time = 5 [s]

The initial speed is taken as zero, as the car starts from zero.

11.11 = 0 + (a*5)

a = 2.22 [m/s^2]

A phonograph record accelerates from rest to 28.0 rpm in 5.73 s.

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

a) $\alpha=0.5117\ rad.s^{-2}$

b) $\theta=8.4\ rad$

Explanation:

Given:

initial rotational speed of phonograph, $\omega_i=0\ rad.s^{-1}$

final rotational speed of phonograph, $N_f=28\ rpm \Rightarrow \omega_f=2\pi\times\frac{28}{60} =2.932\ rad.s^{-1}$

time taken for the acceleration, $t=5.73\ s$

a)

Now angular acceleration:

$\alpha=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}$

$\alpha=\frac{2.932-0}{5.73}$

$\alpha=0.5117\ rad.s^{-2}$

b)

Using eq. of motion:

$\theta=\omega_i.t+\frac{1}{2} \alpha.t^2$

$\theta=0+\frac{1}{2}\times 0.5117\times 5.73^2$

$\theta=8.4\ rad$
