A 10-kg block is suspended in air by a single string that passes through a pulley and is attached on the other side to a 35-kg b

lock that is on the verge of sliding on the ground. What is the coefficient of static friction between the larger block and the ground? (Note: The magnitude of the vertical force the small block exerts on the large block is 87 N.)

Answer:

0.286

Explanation:

Let g = 10m/s2, and assume the pulley is frictionless, the weight by the 10kg block would exert a force on the 35kg block on the ground

Weight of the 10 kg-block = mg = 10 * 10 = 100 N

This force is balanced by static friction force from the ground due to the normal force of the 35kg block. So the friction force would also be 100N

The weight and normal force of the 35kg block is N = Mg = 35*10 = 350 N

The coefficient of the friction force if friction force divided by normal force:

\mu = \frac{F_f}{N} = \frac{100}{350} = 0.286

The resonant frequency of a circuit is the frequency \omega_0 at which the equivalent impedance of a circuit is purely real (the imaginary part is null).

Mathematically this frequency is described as

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}(\sqrt{\frac{1}{LC}})

Where

L = Inductance

C = Capacitance

Our values are given as

C = 15*10^{-6}\mu F

L = 0.280*10^{-3}mH

Replacing we have,

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}(\sqrt{\frac{1}{LC}})

f = \frac{1}{2\pi}(\sqrt{\frac{1}{(15*10^{-6})(0.280*10^{-3})}})

f= 2455.81Hz

From this relationship we can also appreciate that the resonance frequency infers the maximum related transfer in the system and that therefore given an input a maximum output is obtained.

For this particular case, the smaller the capacitance and inductance values, the higher the frequency obtained is likely to be.

A ball falls off the desk and hits the floor. Which
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy

Explanation:

This particular case is defined as the principle of energy conservation since energy is not created or destroyed only transforms. When you have potential energy it can be transformed into kinetic energy or vice versa. In this problem, we have the case of a ball that sits on a desk and then falls to the ground. In this way the ground will be taken as a reference point, this is a point at which the potential energy will be equal to zero in such a way that when the ball is on the desktop that is above the reference line its potential energy will be maximum. As the ball drops its potential energy decreases, as the height relative to the ground (reference point) decreases. In contrast its kinetic energy increases and increases as it approaches the ground. So when it hits the ground it will have maximum kinetic energy and will be equal to the potential energy for when the ball was on the desk.

Therefore:

E_{p} = potential energy [J] = E_{k} = kinetic energy [J]where:\\E_{p} =m*g*h\\m =mass [kg]\\g=gravity[m/s^2]\\h=elevation[m]\\E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\where:\\v=velocity [m/s]\\\frac{1}{2}  *m*v^{2} = m*g*h
