Answer:

0.56

Explanation:

Let the coefficient of friction is μ.

m = 4.3 kg, θ = 30 degree, initial velocity, u = 0, s = 2.7 m, t = 5.8 s

By the free body diagram,

Normal reaction, N = mg Cosθ = 4.3 x 9.8 x Cos 30 = 36.49 N

Friction force, f = μ N = 36.49 μ

Net force acting on the block,

Fnet = mg Sinθ - f = 4.3 x 9.8 x Sin 30 - 36.49 μ

Fnet = 21.07 - 36.49μ

Net acceleartion, a = Fnet / m

a = (21.07 - 36.49μ) / 4.3

use second equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

2.7 = 0 + 1/2 x (21.07 - 36.49μ) x 5.8 x 5.8 / 4.3

By solving we get

μ = 0.56

Assume a change at the source of sound reduces the wavelength of a sound wave in air by a factor of 3.
noname [10]

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda ......(1)

(i) Here, the wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3. Equation (1) becomes :

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional to each other. So, if wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3, then the frequency will increases by a factor of 3.

(ii) It remains the same.

Does uranium use steam?
Neko [114]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Reactors use uranium for nuclear fuel. The uranium is processed into small ceramic pellets and stacked together onto sealed metal tubes called fuel rods. The heat created by fission turns the water into steam.

Two 25.0N weights are suspended at opposite ends of a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley. What is the tension in the ro
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

tension in rope = 25.0 N

Explanation:

  • Two forces act on the suspended weight. The force coming down is the gravitational force and the upward force by the tension in the rope.
  • Since the suspended weight is not accelerating so that the net force will be zero. Therefore the tension in the rope should be 25 N.

       ∑F = F - W = 0

       so

       F = W

       so tension in rope = F  = T  = 25 N

Calculate the change in total internal energy for a system that releases 2.59 × 104 kJ of heat and does 6.46 × 104 kJ of work on
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The equation to use for this is the following:

dU = q + w

As the heat is being release, this value is negative, and same here happens with the work done, because it's in the surroundings.

Therefore the change in the energy would be:

dU = -2.59x10^4 - 6.46^4

dU = -9.05x10^4 kJ
