A 51.1-kg crate rests on a level floor at a shipping dock. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.622 and 0.368,

respectively. What horizontal pushing force is required to (a) just start the crate moving and (b) slide the crate across the dock at a constant speed?

Answer:

(a) The force must be greater than 311.4851 N to just start the crate moving

(b) The 184.287 N force needed to to slide the crate at constant speed

Explanation:

We have given that mass of the crate m = 51.1 kg

Coefficient of static friction $\mu _s=0.622$ and coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu _k=0.368$

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

(A) Static frictional force is given by $F_S=\mu _Smg=0.622\times 9.8\times 51.1=311.48516N$

So the force must be greater than 311.4851 N to just start the crate moving

(b) For sliding the crate across the dock at a constant speed force must be equal to kinetic friction force

Kinetic friction force is given by $F_k=\mu _kmg=0.368\times 9.8\times 51.1=184.287N$

So the 184.287 N force needed to to slide the crate at constant speed

If wavelength and speed of a wave are 4 m and 332 m/s respectively, calculate its frequency<br>

Furkat [3]

Explanation:

<em>Given </em>

<em>wavelength </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>m</em>

<em>speed </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>3</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>m/</em><em>s</em>

<em>frequency </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>?</em>

<em>We </em><em>know </em><em>we </em><em>have </em><em>the </em><em>formula </em>

<em>wavelength</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>speed </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>frequency </em>

<em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>3</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>frequency </em>

<em>frequency </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>3</em><em>2</em><em>/</em><em>4</em>

Two balls, each with a mass of 0.890 kg, exert a gravitational force of 8.06 × 10−11 n on each other. how far apart are the ball

Bond [772]

This problem involves Newton's universal law of gravitation and the equation to follow would be.

F = GM₁M₂/r²

Given: M₁ = 0.890 Kg; M₂ = 0.890 Kg; F = 8.06 x 10⁻¹¹ N; G = 6.673 X 10⁻¹¹ N m²/Kg²

Solving for distance r = ?

r = √GM₁M₂/F

r = √(6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ N m₂/Kg²)(0.890 Kg)(0.890 Kg)/ 8.06 x 10⁻¹¹ N

r = 0.81 m

What is accurate about the planet’s climate system?

ElenaW [278]

The accurate about the planet’s climate system is the wind

because heating near the equator blows the wind to drive the convection cells in the atmosphere, and the friction created by the rotation of the spherical planet in the atmosphere causes the wind to appear to bend left or right across the surface of the planet. ..

The climate system is a highly complex global system consisting of five major components: the atmosphere, the ocean, the cryosphere (cryosphere), the land surface, the biosphere, and the interactions between them.

Solar energy drives the climate by heating the surface of the earth unevenly. Ice also reflects incoming sunlight, further cooling the poles. Temperature differences move the ocean and atmosphere as they work together to disperse heat throughout the globe.

When the play button is pressed, a CD accelerates uniformly from rest to 450 rev/min in 3.0 revolutions. If the CD has a radius

Marina CMI [18]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of angular motion.

Torque from the rotational movement is defined as

$\tau = I\alpha$

where

I = Moment of inertia $\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mr^2$ For a disk

$\alpha =$ Angular acceleration

The angular acceleration at the same time can be defined as function of angular velocity and angular displacement (Without considering time) through the expression:

$2 \alpha \theta = \omega_f^2-\omega_i^2$

Where

$\omega_{f,i} =$ Final and Initial Angular velocity

$\alpha =$ Angular acceleration

$\theta =$ Angular displacement

Our values are given as

$\omega_i = 0 rad/s$

$\omega_f = 450rev/min (\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev})$

$\omega_f = 47.12rad/s$

$\theta = 3 rev (\frac{2\pi rad}{1rev}) \rightarrow 6\pi rad$

$r = 7cm = 7*10^{-2}m$

$m = 17g = 17*10^{-3}kg$

Using the expression of angular acceleration we can find the to then find the torque, that is,

$2\alpha\theta=\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2$

$\alpha=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}$

$\alpha = \frac{47.12^2-0^2}{2*6\pi}$

$\alpha = 58.89rad/s^2$

With the expression of the acceleration found it is now necessary to replace it on the torque equation and the respective moment of inertia for the disk, so

$\tau = I\alpha$

$\tau = (\frac{1}{2}mr^2)\alpha$

$\tau = (\frac{1}{2}(17*10^{-3})(7*10^{-2})^2)(58.89)$

$\tau = 0.00245N\cdot m \approx 2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m$

Therefore the torque exerted on it is $2.45*10^{-3}N\cdot m$
