Answer:
μ = 0.109
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram of the crate. There are four forces:
Weight force mg pulling down.
Normal force N pushing up.
Applied force P pulling at θ above the horizontal.
Friction force Nμ pushing to the left.
Sum of the forces in the y direction:
∑F = ma
N + P sin θ − mg = 0
N = mg − P sin θ
Sum of the forces in the x direction:
∑F = ma
P cos θ − Nμ = ma
P cos θ − ma = Nμ
μ = (P cos θ − ma) / N
μ = (P cos θ − ma) / (mg − P sin θ)
Given:
P = 585 N
θ = 28.0°
m = 125 kg
a = 3.30 m/s²
μ = (585 cos 28.0° − 125 kg × 3.30 m/s²) / (125 kg × 9.8 m/s² − 585 sin 28.0°)
μ = 0.109
Data:
m (mass) = 1 Kg
s (speed) = 3 m/s
Kinetic energy = ? (Joule)
Formula (Kinetic energy)

Solving:




The gas is in a rigid container: this means that its volume remains constant. Therefore, we can use Gay-Lussac law, which states that for a gas at constant volume, the pressure is directly proportional to the temperature. The law can be written as follows:

Where P1=5 atm is the initial pressure, T1=254.5 K is the initial temperature, P2 is the new pressure and T2=101.8 K is the new temperature. Re-arranging the equation and using the data of the problem, we can find P2:

So, the new pressure is 2 atm.
