Answer: 2.5N

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of block (m) = 2kg

Coefficient of static friction (μs) = 0.4

Horizontal force applied to the block = 2.5N

The frictional force (Ff) between the block and the floor is :

First calculate the maximum static frictional force:

Frictional force = Coefficient of static friction(μs) × normal reaction(R)

Normal reaction(R) = mass × acceleration due to gravity (10m/s^2)

R = 2 × 10 = 20

Fmax = μs × R

Fmax = 0.4 x 20 = 8N

Here, since the applied force (2.5N) is less than maximum frictional force(8N).

The force of friction between the block and the floor will be equal to the applied force of 2.5N due its ability to adjust itself in other to ensure equilibrium.

A soccer player kicks a soccer ball initially at rest setting it in motion at a velocity of 30 m/s. If the ball has a mass of 0.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

 F= 600 N

Explanation:

Given that

Initial velocity ,u= 0 m/s

Final velocity ,v= 30 m/s

mass ,m = 0.5 kg

time ,t= 0.025 s

The change in the linear momentum is given as

ΔP= m (v - u)

ΔP= 0.5 ( 30 - 0 ) kg.m/s

ΔP= 15 kg.m/s

We know that from second law of Newtons

F=\dfrac{dP}{dt}

F=\dfrac{\Delta P}{t}

Now by putting the values

F=\dfrac{15}{0.025}\ N

F= 600 N

Explain Sound level intensity with mathematical steps?
yan [13]

Answer:

Sound intensity levels are quoted in decibels (dB) much more often than sound intensities in watts per meter squared. Decibels are the unit of choice in the scientific literature as well as in the popular media. The reasons for this choice of units are related to how we perceive sounds. How our ears perceive sound can be more accurately described by the logarithm of the intensity rather than directly to the intensity. The sound intensity level β in decibels of a sound having an intensity I in watts per meter squared is defined to be β(dB)=10log10(II0)β(dB)=10log10⁡(II0), where I0 = 10−12 W/m2 is a reference intensity. In particular, I0 is the lowest or threshold intensity of sound a person with normal hearing can perceive at a frequency of 1000 Hz. Sound intensity level is not the same as intensity. Because β is defined in terms of a ratio, it is a unitless quantity telling you the level of the sound relative to a fixed standard (10−12 W/m2, in this case). The units of decibels (dB) are used to indicate this ratio is multiplied by 10 in its definition. The bel, upon which the decibel is based, is named for Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone.
