A stubborn, 100 kgkg mule sits down and refuses to move. To drag the mule to the barn, the exasperated farmer ties a rope around

the mule and pulls with his maximum force of 800 NN . The coefficients of friction between the mule and the ground are μsμsmu_s = 0.80 and μk=0.5μk=0.5.
Is the farmer able to move the mule?

Answer:

No, the farmer is not able to move the mule.

Explanation:

Mass =100 kg

Force=F=800 N

The coefficient between the mule and the ground=\mu_s=0.8

\mu_k=0.5

Static friction force,f=\mu N

Normal force=N=mg

Static friction force,f=\mu_s mg=0.8\times 100\times 9.8=784 N

Using g=9.8m/s^2

F<f

Static friction force is greater than applied force.

Therefore , the farmer is not able to move the mule.

the velocity of a car traveling in the positive direction decreases from 32 m/s to 24 m/s in 4 seconds. what is the average acce
anastassius [24]

Answer:

a=-2m/sec^2

Negative sign shows that velocity of the car is decreases at a constant rate

Explanation:

We have given velocity of the car is decreases from 32 m /sec to 24 m/sec in 4 second

So initial velocity of the car u = 32 m /sec

And finally car reaches to a velocity of 24 m/sec

Time taken to change in velocity = 4 sec

So final velocity v = 24 m/sec

From first equation of motion v = u+at

So 24=32+a\times 4

a=-2m/sec^2

Negative sign shows that velocity of the car is decreases at a constant rate

According to the chart, one gram of copper and
ad-work [718]

Answer:

C) three

Explanation:

Let gram of gold required be m . Let temperature change in both be Δ t .

heat absorbed = mass x specific heat x change in temperature

for copper

heat absorbed = 1 x .385 x Δt

for gold

heat absorbed = m x .129 x Δt

So

m x .129 x Δt = 1 x .385 x Δt

m = 2.98

= 3 g approximately .

A 120-kg roller coaster cart is being tested on a new track, and a crash-test dummy is loaded into it. The roller coaster starts
avanturin [10]

Answer:

vb = 22.13 m/s

So, the only thing that was measured here was the height of point A relative to point B. And the Law of Conservation of Energy was used.

Explanation:

In order to find the speed of roller coaster at Point B, we will use the law of conservation of Energy. In this situation, the law of conservation of energy states that:

K.E at A + P.E at A = K.E at B + P.E at B

(1/2)mvₐ² + mghₐ = (1/2)m(vb)² + mg(hb)

(1/2)vₙ² + ghₐ = (1/2)(vb)² + g(hb)

where,

vₙ = velocity of roller coaster at point a = 0 m/s

hₙ = height of roller coaster at point a = 25 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

vb = velocity of roller coaster at point B = ?

hb = Height of Point B = 0 m (since, point is the reference point)

Therefore,

(1/2)(0 m/s)² + (9.8 m/s²)(25 m) = (1/2)(vb)² + (9.8 m/s²)(0 m)

245 m²/s² * 2 = vb²

vb = √(490 m²/s²)

<u>vb = 22.13 m/s</u>

<u>So, the only thing that was measured here was the height of point A relative to point B. And the Law of Conservation of Energy was used.</u>
