No net force acts on it.example is the earth
<u>Answer:</u>
The velocity is 30.279 m/s
<u>Explanation</u>:
Consider the initial speed of the semi-trailer be v
Then, initial kinetic energy = 
According to question, the semi-trailer coast along a ramp, which is inclined at an angle of 170, and to a distance of 160m to stop
Change in vertical position =
= 46.779m
Final potential energy of semitrailer = mgh
Applying principle of conservation of energy,
= mgh
Solving for v, we get 
= 2gh = 2*9.8*46.779 = 916.8684
= 916.8684
v = 30.279 m/s
Therefore, the velocity is 30.279 m/s
Answer:
630.75 j
Explanation:
from the question we have the following
total mass (m) = 54.5 kg
initial speed (Vi) = 1.4 m/s
final speed (Vf) = 6.6 m/s
frictional force (FF) = 41 N
height of slope (h) = 2.1 m
length of slope (d) = 12.4 m
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2
work done (wd) = ?
- we can calculate the work done by the boy in pushing the chair using the law of law of conservation of energy
wd + mgh = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x d)
wd = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x d) - (mgh)
where wd = work done
m = mass
h = height
g = acceleration due to gravity
FF = frictional force
d = distance
Vf and Vi = final and initial velocity
wd = (0.5 x 54.5 x 6.9^2) - (0.5 x 54.5 x 1.4^2) + (41 x 12.4) - (54.5 X 9.8 X 2.1)
wd = 630.75 j
Is their a multiple choice to choose from I'm not sure the answer I got is even right.
That would be very helpful.
