B. The coefficient of friction between the tires and the road is 0.850 and the mass of the car is
Mrac [35]

Answer:

156.26N

Explanation:

The data needed are incomplete. Let the acceleration of the body be 3.5m/s²

Other given parameters

Mass = 1.35×10^1 = 13.5kg

coefficient of friction between the tires and the road = 0.850

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

According to Newton's second law:

Fnet = ma

Fnet = Fapp - Ff

Fapp is the applied force

Ff is the frictional force = umg

The equation becomes:

Fapp - Ff = ma

Fapp-umg = ma

Fapp - 0.85(13.5)(9.8) = 13.5(3.5)

Fapp - 109.0125 = 47.25

Fapp = 47.25+109.0125

Fapp = 156.2625N

Hence the applied force that caused the acceleration is 156.26N

Note that the acceleration of the car was assumed. Any value of acceleration can be used for the calculation.

3 kg of wet clothes are hung on the middle of a clothesline with posts 6 ft apart. The clothesline sags down by 3 feet. What is
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Tension in string equals 14.715 Newtons

Explanation:

The situation is represented in the figure attached below:

For equilibrium of the clothes along y- axis we have

\sum F_{v}=0\\\\\Rightarrow 2Tcos(\theta )=W\\\\\therefore T=\frac{W}{2cos(\theta )}

Applying values we get

\sum F_{v}=0\\\\\Rightarrow 2Tcos(\theta )=W\\\\\therefore T=\frac{3\times 9.81}{2\times 1}=14.715N(\because cos(\theta )=\frac{3}{3}=1)

The common electrical wall receptacle voltage in North America is often referred to as 120 volts AC. One hundred twenty volts is
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

120 volts is the root mean square (rms) average of the voltage as it varies with time.

Explanation:

A. The average voltage over many weeks of time (false)

Reason: Average AC voltage over one cycle is cycle (from one peak to other) is zero and so over many weeks of time  it is zero.

B. The peak voltage from an AC wall receptacle (false)

Reason: The peak voltage of an AC source in North America is zero.

C. The arithmetic mean of the voltage as it varies with time (false)

Reason: Arithmetic mean AC voltage over one cycle is cycle (from one peak to other) is zero and so over many weeks of time  it is zero.

D.  One-half the peak voltage (false)

Peak voltage =170 Volts

One-half the peak voltage = 85 volts

E. The root mean square (rms) average of the voltage as it varies with time (True)

Reason:

The peak voltage and root mean square voltage are related by:

V_{rms}=\frac{V_{p}}{\sqrt{2} }\\\\V_{rms}=\frac{170}\sqrt{2}V_{rms}\\\\V_{rms}=120 Volts

Average value of voltage over one cycle is zero, so instead of calculating average voltage for AC peak voltage is first squared and the mean is calculated.

What force is required to accelerate a 385 kg couch at 0.2 m/s^2 ?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

It takes 77 N

Explanation:

Using Newton's second law of motion, F=ma (Force equals mass times acceleration. Since the mass of the couch is 385 kg and the target acceleration is 0.2 m/s, you simply multiply mass times acceleration (ma) to get the total force, or 77 N.

what would happen to the simple circuit if an additional wire were added to the circuit to connect the terminals of the bulb to
lilavasa [31]

As current increases, the wires heat which can cause a fuse to blow or a circuit breaker to trip. As additional branches are added to a parallel circuit, the overall resistance of the circuit decreases. A decrease in resistance creates an increase in current.

<h3>What is a Simple circuit ?</h3>

A battery (or other energy source), a light bulb (or other energy-consuming device), and conducting wires that connect the two terminals of the battery to the two ends of the light bulb make up a simple electric circuit.

  • Three elements make up an electric circuit: a power source, such as a battery or the mains. a lightbulb-like energy receiver an energy conduit, such as a wire
