A block of mass m=16.8 kg is sliding on a surface with initial velocity v=23.2 m/s. The block has a coefficient of kinetic frict

ion μk =0.426 with respect to the surface and is being pushed by a force of magnitude F=86.4 N in the direction of its motion. Due to kinetic friction, the block is slowing down. How long will it take for the block to come to a stop?

Answer:

t = 23.92 s

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration (m/s²)

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the block and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

Forces acting on the block

W: Weight of the block : In vertical direction, downward

FN : Normal force : perpendicular to the floor, upward

fk : Kinetic friction force: parallel to the floor and opposite to the movement

F = 86.4 N , in the direction of the motion

Calculated of the W

W= m*g

W= 16.8 kg* 9.8 m/s² = 164.64 N

Calculated of the FN

We apply the formula (1)

∑Fy = m*ay ay = 0

FN - W = 0

FN = W

FN = 164.64 N

Calculated of the fk

fk = μk*FN

fk = 0.426* 164.64 N

fk = 70.13 N

We apply the formula (1) to calculated acceleration of the block:

∑Fx = m*ax , ax= a : acceleration of the block

F - fk = m*a

86.4 -70.13 = (16.8)*(-a)

16.26 = (16.8)*(-a)

a = -(16.26 )/ (16.8)

a = - 0.97 m/s²

Kinematics of the block

Because the block moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formula :

vf = v₀ + a*t Formula (2)

Where:

t: time interval (m)

v₀: initial speed (m/s)

vf: final speed (m/s)

Data:

v₀ = 23.2 m/s

vf = 0

a = -0.97 m/s²

Time it takes for the block to stop

We replace data in the formula (2) to calculate the time

vf= v₀+a*t

0 = 23.2+( -0.97)*t

(0.97)*t = 23.2

(0.97)*t = 23.2

t = 23.2 / (0.97)

t = 23.92 s

A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from t

marishachu [46]

Answer:

The impact occured at a distance of 2478.585 meters from the person.

Explanation:

(After some research on web, we conclude that problem is not incomplete) The element "Part A" may lead to the false idea that question is incomplete. Correct form is presented below:

<em>A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from the impact: one travels in the air and the other in the concrete, and they are 6.4 seconds apart. How far away did the impact occur? (Sound speed in the air: 343 meters per second, sound speed in concrete: 3000 meters per second)</em>

Sound is a manifestation of mechanical waves, which needs a medium to propagate themselves. Depending on the material, sound will take more or less time to travel a given distance. From statement, we know this time difference between air and concrete ( $\Delta t$ ), in seconds:

$\Delta t = t_{A}-t_{C}$ (1)

Where:

$t_{C}$ - Time spent by the sound in concrete, in seconds.

$t_{A}$ - Time spent by the sound in the air, in seconds.

By suposing that sound travels the same distance and at constant speed in both materials, we have the following expression:

$\Delta t = \frac{x}{v_{A}}-\frac{x}{v_{C}}$

$\Delta t = x\cdot \left(\frac{1}{v_{A}}-\frac{1}{v_{C}} \right)$

$x = \frac{\Delta t}{\frac{1}{v_{A}}-\frac{1}{v_{C}} }$ (2)

Where:

$v_{C}$ - Speed of the sound in concrete, in meters per second.

$v_{A}$ - Speed of the sound in the air, in meters per second.

$x$ - Distance traveled by the sound, in meters.

If we know that $\Delta t = 6.4\,s$ , $v_{C} = 3000\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v_{A} = 343\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the distance travelled by the sound is:

$x = \frac{\Delta t}{\frac{1}{v_{A}}-\frac{1}{v_{C}} }$

$x = 2478.585\,m$

The impact occured at a distance of 2478.585 meters from the person.

A stuntwoman is going to attempt a jump across a canyon that is 77 m wide. The ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower

liq [111]

initial speed of the stuntman is given as

$v = 28 m/s$

angle of inclination is given as

$\theta = 15 degree$

now the components of the velocity is given as

$v_x = 28 cos15 = 27.04 m/s$

$v_y = 28 sin15 = 7.25 m/s$

here it is given that the ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower than the ramp from which she will leave.

So the displacement in vertical direction is given as

$\delta y = -25 m$

$\delta y = v_y * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

$-25 = 7.25 * t - \frac{1}{2}*9.8* t^2$

by solving above equation we have

$t = 3.12 s$

Now in the above interval of time the horizontal distance moved by it is given by

$d_x = v_x * t$

$d_x = 27.04 * 3.12 = 84.4 m$

since the canyon width is 77 m which is less than the horizontal distance covered by the stuntman so here we can say that stuntman will cross the canyon.

If you place a paper clip very close to a magnet, the paper clip

Alik [6]

The answer is “D. all of the above”!

Metal from the paper clip is attracted to the magnet, so it will naturally move toward and stick to the magnet. This will cause the paper clip to temporarily become a magnet for other metals. I hope this helped!
