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

Ben walks 500 meters from his house to the corner store. He then walks back toward his house but stops to talk to a neighbor whe
spin [16.1K]
Average velocity =

      (displacement) / (time for the displacement)
and
      (direction of the displacement) .

Displacement =

      (distance from the start-point to the end-point)
and
      (direction from the start-point to the end-point)   .

When Ben is 200 meters from the corner store,
he is (500 - 200) = 300 meters from his house.

His displacement is

         300 meters in the direction
                             from his house to the neighbor .


His average velocity is

         (300/910) =  0.33 meters per second, in the
                               direction from his house to the neighbor .

When reaching a boundary between two media (1 and 2), an incident ray is partially reflected and partially refracted. The ray is
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The angle of incidence when the reflected ray is perpendicular to the incident ray = 45°

Explanation:

According to Snell's Law,

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

When the angle between the incident ray and reflected ray is 90°, the angle of incidence is θ₁ and the angle of reflection, θ₂ = 90° - θ₁ and the index of refraction in the Snell's Law for both media would be the same, n₁ = n₂ = n

n sin θ₁ = n sin (90° - θ₁)

Note that from trigonometric relations,

Sin (90° - θ₁) = cos θ₁

n sin θ₁ = n cos θ₁

(sin θ₁)/(cos θ₁) = 1

tan θ₁ = 1

θ₁ = arctan 1 = 45°

Hope this Helps!!!
