A Biologists have studied the running ability of the northern quoll, a marsupial indigenous to Australia In one set of experimen

ts, they studied the maximum speed that quolls could run around a curved path without slipping. One quoll was running at 2.4 m/s around a curve with a radius of 1.6 m when it started to slip.
What was the coefficient of static friction between the quoll's feet and the ground in this trial?

Answer:

Coefficient of static friction = 0.37

Explanation:

At the point the the quoll slides, quoll attains its maximum velocity.

So Ne = (mv^2)/r ....equa 1

And N =mg....equ 2

Where N vertical force of qoull acting on the surface, e = coefficient of friction, m=mass, g=9.8m/s^2, r =radius =1.6m, v= max velocity of quill = 2.4m/s

Sub equ 2 into equ 1

Mge= (mv^2)/r ...equa3

Simplfy equ3

e = v^2/(gr)...equ 4

Sub figures above

e = 5.76/(9.8*1.6)

e = 0.37

Rays traveling parallel to the principle axis of a concave mirror will reflect out through the mirrors focus?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a ray travelling parallel to the principle axis of a concave mirror then the light ray reflect out through the mirrors and passing through the focus.

When a light ray travelling through focus of a concave mirror then after reflection the light ray reflect out through the mirror and  go parallel to principle axis.

Therefore, rays travelling parallel to the principle axis of a  concave mirror will reflect out through the mirrors focus.

It is true.

1- ¿Cuál sería la energía de un objeto de 50 newton de peso que se encuentra sobre una estantería de 3 metros de altura? ¿Qué ti
Liula [17]

Responder:

<h3>150 Nm </h3><h3>Energía potencial </h3>

Explicación:

El tipo de energía que posee el objeto se conoce como energía potencial. <u>La energía potencial es la energía que posee un objeto, mi virtud de su posición. </u>

Energía potencial = masa * aceleración debido a la gravedad * altura

Dado que Force = masa * aceleración debido a la gravedad

Energía potencial = Fuerza * altura

Fuerza dada = 50N y altura = 3 m

Energía potencial = 50 * 3

Energía potencial = 150 Nm

10. A boat traveling at 9.5 m/s reduces its acceleration at a rate of 2.5 m/s2. What is the final speed of the boat
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

6.75m/s

Explanation:

using the second equation of motion, the time is calculated.

and with the formula a= (v - u)/t

where a is acceleration but in this case it's deceleration (and should be negated as you solve it ) .

v is final velocity

u is initial velocity

t is time taken
