A book falls off a shelf that is 10.0 m tall. What is the velocity at which the book hits the ground?

Physics
1 answer:
Elena L [17]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the book is a free fall motion, so it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. Therefore we can find the final velocity by using the equation:

v^2 = u^2 + 2gd

where

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

d = 10.0 m is the distance covered by the book

Substituting data, we find

v=\sqrt{0^2 + 2(9.8 m/s^2)(10.0 m)}=14 m/s

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between your partner and the floor is 0.55

Explanation:

Given:

Mass m = 59 Kg

Frictional force F_{s}  = 318.3 N

From the formula of frictional force,

 F_{s} = \mu_{s} mg

Where \mu _{s} = coefficient of static friction, g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Put the above values and find the coefficient of static friction.

318.3 = \mu_{s} \times 59 \times 9.8

\mu_{s} = 0.55

Therefore, the coefficient of static friction between your partner and the floor is 0.55

A 8.0-cm long solenoid has 2000 turns of wire and carries a current of 5.0-A. Calculate the strength of the magnetic field at th
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

B = 0.157 T

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the solenoid, l = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Number of turns in the wire, N = 2000

Current, I = 5 A

We need to find the strength of the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid. It is given by the formula as follows :

N=\mu_o nI, N is number of turns per unit length of solenoid.

So,

B=4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times \dfrac{2000}{0.08}\times 5\\\\=0.157\ T

So, the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid is 0.157 T.
