A 2.00 kg box slides on a rough, horizontal surface, hits a spring with a speed of 1.90 m/s and compresses it a distance of 10.0

cm before coming to rest. Determine the force constant (in N/m) of the spring, if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is μk = 0.660.

Answer:

463.2 N/m

Explanation:

mass of block, m = 2 kg

velocity of spring, v = 1.9 m/s

distance, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.66

Let the spring constant is K.

friction force, f = μ mg = 0.66 x 2 x 9.8 = 12.94 N

Use work energy theorem

$\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=f \times r + \frac{1}{2}Kr^{2}$

0.5 x 2 x 1.9 x 1.9 = 12.94 x 0.1 + 0.5 x K x 0.1 x 0.1

3.61 = 1.294 + 0.005 K

K = 463.2 N/m

Thus, the spring constant is 463.2 N/m.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box $m=2\ kg$

speed of box $v=1.9\ m/s$

distance moved by the box $x=10\ cm$

coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu _k=0.66$

Friction force $f_r=\mu_kN$

$f_r=0.66\times mg$

$f_r=0.66\times 2\times 9.8=12.936 \N$

Kinetic Energy of box will be utilize to overcome friction and rest is stored in spring in the form of elastic potential energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=f_r\cdot x+\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.9^2=12.936\times 0.1+\frac{1}{2}\times k\times (0.1)^2$

$3.61-1.2936=0.005\times k$

$k=463.28\ N/m$

How much work is needed to push a 117- kg packing crate a distance of 2.75 m up an inclined plane that makes an angle of 28 o wi

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

$W_{tot,min} = 1481.372\,J$

Explanation:

The minimum total work is the work needed to counteract the work associated with the weight:

$W_{tot, min} = W_{F}$

$W_{tot,min} = m\cdot g\cdot \sin \theta \cdot \Delta s$

$W_{tot,min} = (117\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (\sin 28^{\textdegree}) \cdot (2.75\,m)$

$W_{tot,min} = 1481.372\,J$

Two massless bags contain identical bricks, each brick having a mass M. Initially, each bag contains four bricks, and the bags m

stepladder [879]

Answer: $F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}$

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

$F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}$

Where:

$F$ is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

$G$ is the universal gravitation constant.

$m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ are the masses of both bodies.

$r$ is the distance between both bodies

In this case we have two situations:

1) Two bags with masses $4M$ and $4M$ mutually exerting a gravitational attraction $F_{1}$ on each other:

$F_{1}=G\frac{(4M)(4M)}{r^2}$ (1)

$F_{1}=G\frac{16M^2}{r^2}$ (2)

$F_{1}=16\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ (3)

2) Two bags with masses $2M$ and $6M$ mutually exerting a gravitational attraction $F_{2}$ on each other (assuming the distance between both bags is the same as situation 1):

$F_{2}=G\frac{(2M)(6M)}{r^2}$ (4)

$F_{2}=G\frac{12M^2}{r^2}$ (5)

$F_{2}=12\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ (6)

Now, if we isolate $\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ from (3):

$\frac{F_{1}}{16}=\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ (7)

Substituting $\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ found in (7) in (6):

$F_{2}=12(\frac{F_{1}}{16})$ (8)

$F_{2}=\frac{12}{16}F_{1}$ (9)

Simplifying, we finally get the expression for $F_{2}$ in terms of $F_{1}$ :

$F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}$

A fireman is sliding down a fire pole. As he speeds up, he tightens his grip on the pole, thus increasing the vertical frictiona

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The fireman will continue to descend, but with a constant speed.

Explanation:

In kinetic friction <em>(which is the case discussed here) </em>since the fireman is already in motion because of a certain force, once the frictional force matches the normal force, the fireman will stop accelerating and continue moving at a constant rate with the original speed he had. We will need a force greater than the normal force acting on the fireman to cause a deceleration.

We need to understand the difference between static friction and kinetic friction.

Static friction occurs in objects that are stationary, while kinetic friction occurs in objects that are already in motion.

In static friction, when the frictional force matches the weight or normal force of the object, the object remains stationary.

While in kinetic friction, when the frictional force matches the normal force, the object will stop accelerating. This is the case of the fireman sliding down the pole as discussed above.
