A sled is pulled with a horizontal force of 18 n along a level trail, and the acceleration is found to be 0.39 m/s2. an extra ma

From Newton's second law of motion, it is identified that the net force applied to the object with mass m, will make it move with an acceleration of a. This can be mathematically translated as,
                        F = m x a
To solve for the mass of the sled, we derive the equation above such that,
                        m = F / a
Substituting,
                       m = (18 N) / (0.39 m/s²)
                          m = 46.15 kg

Then, we add to the calculated mass the mass of the extra material.
                      total mass = 46.15kg + 4.5 kg
                       total mass = 50.65 kg
We solve for the normal force of the surface to the object by calculating its weight.
                     F₂ = (50.65 kg)(9.8 m/s²)
                     F₂ = 496.41 N

The force that would allow barely a movement for the object is equal to the product of the normal force and the coefficient of kinetic friction.
                     F = (F₂)(c)
                      c = F/F₂

Substituting,
                      c = 18 N/496.41 N
                       c = 0.0362

<em>ANSWER: c = 0.0362</em>

If the mass of the ladder is 12.0 kgkg, the mass of the painter is 55.0 kgkg, and the ladder begins to slip at its base when her
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

 μ = 0.336

Explanation:

We will work on this exercise with the expressions of transactional and rotational equilibrium.

Let's start with rotational balance, for this we set a reference system at the top of the ladder, where it touches the wall and we will assign as positive the anti-clockwise direction of rotation

          fr L sin θ - W L / 2 cos θ - W_painter 0.3 L cos θ  = 0

          fr sin θ  - cos θ  (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter) = 0

          fr = cotan θ  (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter)

Now let's write the equilibrium translation equation

     

X axis

        F1 - fr = 0

        F1 = fr

the friction force has the expression

       fr = μ N

Y Axis

       N - W - W_painter = 0

       N = W + W_painter

       

we substitute

      fr = μ (W + W_painter)

we substitute in the endowment equilibrium equation

     μ (W + W_painter) = cotan θ  (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter)

      μ = cotan θ (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter) / (W + W_painter)

we substitute the values ​​they give

      μ = cotan θ  (12/2 + 0.3 55) / (12 + 55)

      μ = cotan θ  (22.5 / 67)

      μ = cotan tea (0.336)

To finish the problem, we must indicate the angle of the staircase or catcher data to find the angle, if we assume that the angle is tea = 45

       cotan 45 = 1 / tan 45 = 1

the result is

    μ = 0.336

Two lightbulbs both operate on 120V . One has a power of 25W and the other 100W. (ii) Which lightbulb carries more current? Choo
Vikki [24]

The lightbulb that carries more current will be the 25W bulb.

<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>

It should be noted that an electric current simply means the stream of charged particles that move through an electrical conductor or space.

In this case, it should be noted that the power is the same for both bulbs. Therefore, the 25W bulb will have the higher resistance so that it will have lower power.

Therefore, the lightbulb that carries more current will be the 25W bulb.

(6) Wagon B is at rest so it has no momentum at the start. If <em>v</em> is the velocity of the wagons locked together, then

(140 kg) (15 m/s) = (140 kg + 200 kg) <em>v</em>

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 6.2 m/s

(7) False. If you double the time it takes to perform the same amount of work, then you <u>halve</u> the power output:

<em>E</em> <em>/</em> (2<em>t </em>) = 1/2 × <em>E/t</em> = 1/2 <em>P</em>
