Answer:

A) W_{ff} =-744.12J

B) F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy = 112.75N

C) F_{f2}=207.58N

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The full question was:

<em>A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then jumps on his skateboard and descends down the ramp. His speed at the bottom of the ramp is vf = 6.2 m/s.  </em>

<em>Part (a) Write an expression for the work, Wf, done by the friction force between the ramp and the skateboarder in terms of the variables given in the problem statement.  </em>

<em>Part (b) The ramp makes an angle θ with the ground, where θ = 30°. Write an expression for the magnitude of the friction force, fr, between the ramp and the skateboarder.  </em>

<em>Part (c) When the skateboarder reaches the bottom of the ramp, he continues moving with the speed vf onto a flat surface covered with grass. The friction between the grass and the skateboarder brings him to a complete stop after 5.00 m. Calculate the magnitude of the friction force, Fgrass in newtons, between the skateboarder and the grass.</em>

For part A), we make a balance of energy to calculate the work done by the friction force:

W_{ff}=\Delta E

W_{ff}=1/2*m*vf^2-m*g*hy

W_{ff}=-744.12J

For part B), we use our previous value for the work:

W_{ff}=-F_f*(hy/sin\theta)   Solving for friction force:

F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy

F_f=112.75N

For part C), we first calculate the acceleration by kinematics and then calculate the module of friction force by dynamics:

Vf^2=Vo^2+2*a*d

Solving for a:

a=-3.844m/s^2

Now, by dynamics:

|F_f|=|m*a|

|F_f|=207.58N

A van starts off 152 miles directly north from the city of Springfield. It travels due east at a speed of 25 miles per hour. Aft
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

12.84 miles per hour

Explanation:

Given:

Vertical distance of starting point of van from Springfield (d) = 152 miles

Speed in east direction (s) = 25 mph

Distance traveled in east direction (e) = 91 miles

Let the direct distance from Springfield of the van be 'x' at any time 't'.

Now, from the question, it is clear that, the vertical distance of van is fixed at 152 miles and only the horizontal distance is changing with time.

Now, consider a right angled triangle SNE representing the given situation.

Point S represents Springfield, N represents the starting point of van and E represents the position of van at any time 't'.

SN = d = 152 miles (fixed)

Now, using the pythagorean theorem, we have:

SE^2=SN^2+NE^2\\\\x^2=d^2+e^2\\\\x^2=(152)^2+e^2----(1)

Now, differentiating both sides with respect to time 't', we get:

2x\frac{dx}{dt}=0+2e\frac{de}{dt}\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{e}{x}\frac{de}{dt}

Now, we are given speed as 25 mph. So, \frac{de}{dt}=25\ mph

Also, when e=91\ mi, we can find 'x' using equation (1). This gives,

x^2=23104+(91)^2\\\\x=\sqrt{31385}=177.16\ mi

Now, plug in the values of 'e' and 'x' and solve for \frac{dx}{dt}. This gives,

\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{91}{177.16}\times 25\\\\\frac{dx}{dt}=12.84\ mph

Therefore, the distance between the van and Springfield is changing at a rate of 12.84 miles per hour

The time constant for RC circuit with the values of R1 and C1 is 5ms. What will be the time constant for a new RC circuit with t
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

d. 25 ms

Explanation:

  • In a RC circuit we call time constant to the product of the resistance times the capacitance, which represents the time when the charge reaches to the 63% of the final value, as follows:

       \tau_{1} = R_{1} *C_{1}  = 5 ms (1)

  • If we have a new circuit with new values for R and C, the time constant will be defined in the same way, as follows:

       \tau_{2} =10* R_{1} *0.5*C_{1}  = 5*(R_{1}* C_{1}) = 5* \tau_{1} = 5* 5 ms = 25 ms (2)
