How to find the frictional force acting on an object (not the friction coefficient)? ...?

1 answer:

7 0

One can simply find the frictional force acting on an object using this equation:

(Ffrict<span> = μ•F</span>norm<span>)
</span>

The process of determining the value of the individual forces acting upon an object involve an application of Newton's second law (Fnet=m•a) and an application of the meaning of the net force. If mass (m) and acceleration (a) are known, then the net force (Fnet) can be determined by use of the equation.

If the numerical value for the net force and the direction of the net force is known, then the value of all individual forces can be determined.

Explanation:

Typically, business software technologies are complex, and software strenuous. Business software applications are also often upgraded for changes in business goals or procedures. Real-time systems usually require a lot of hardware components that are quite difficult to change and cannot be upgraded Usually, actual-time safety critical systems that required to be built based on well-planned processes.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

500 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 50 m/s

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = -2.5 m/s²

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=50-2.5\times t\\\Rightarrow \frac{-50}{-2.5}=t\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s$

Time taken by the train to stop is 20 seconds

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=50\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -2.5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=500\ m$

∴ The engineer applied the brakes 500 m from the station

A rigid, nonconducting tank with a volume of 4 m3 is divided into two unequal parts by a thin membrane. One side of the membrane

kondor19780726 [428]

The final temperature of the system will be equal to the initial temperature, and which is 373K. The work done by the system is 409.8R Joules.

To find the answer, we need to know about the thermodynamic processes.

<h3>How to find the final temperature of the gas?</h3>

Any processes which produce change in the thermodynamic coordinates of a system is called thermodynamic processes.
In the question, it is given that, the tank is rigid and non-conducting, thus, dQ=0.
The membrane is raptured without applying any external force, thus, dW=0.
We have the first law of thermodynamic expression as,

$dU=dQ-dW$

Here it is zero.

$dU=0$ ,

As we know that,

$dU=C_pdT=0\\\\thus, dT=0\\\\or , T=constant\\\\i.e, T_1=T_2$

Thus, the final temperature of the system will be equal to the initial temperature,

$T_1=T_2=100^0C=373K$

We found that the process is isothermal,
Thus, the work done will be,

$W=RT*ln(\frac{V_2}{V_1} )=373R*ln(\frac{4}{\frac{4}{3} })\\ \\W=409.8R J$

Where, R is the universal gas constant.

<h3>What is a reversible process?</h3>

Any process which can be made to proceed in the reverse direction is called reversible process.
During which, the system passes through exactly the same states as in the direct process.

Thus, we can conclude that, the final temperature of the system will be equal to the initial temperature, and which is 373K. The work done by the system is 409.8R Joules.
