In pushing a heavy box across the floor, is the force you need to apply to start the box moving greater than, less than, or the

same as the force needed to keep the box moving? On what are you basing your choice?
How do you think the force of friction is related to the weight of the box? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

Force needed to apply start the box is greater than the force needed to keep it moving because static friction is greater than the kinetic friction .

A  threshold force is needed to move the box and when box started to move kinetic friction comes into play.      

Friction force is directly related to the weight of the box as the friction force is

coefficient of friction time Normal reaction .

And Normal reaction is equal to the weight of box if no force is applied.

f_r=\mu N

N=mg

the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3. suppose a certain gold wedding ring deplaced 0.55mL of liquid when dropped in a glass of spar
adell [148]

Answer:

19.3

Explanation:

Assuming we have to find Specific gravity of gold.

As we know that specific gravity is defined as the ratio of weight of the object and weight of the water displaced by the object

so it is given by

specific gravity = weight of the object/weight of the water displaced

now we have

weight of the object = (density)(volume)g

weight of object = (19.3)(0.55)g

now weight of the liquid displaced is given by

weight of water displaced = (1 g/cm^3)(0.55ml)g

now we have

specific gravity = (19.3×0.55)/(1×0.55)

specific gravity= 19.3

A golf ball is hit horizontally off the edge of a 30 m high cliff and lands a distance of 25 m from the edge of the cliff. What
Ratling [72]

Answer:

V₀y = 0 m/s

t = 2.47 s

V₀ₓ = 61.86 m/s

Vₓ = 61.86 m/s

Explanation:

Since, the ball is hit horizontally, there is no vertical component of velocity at initial point. So, the initial vertical velocity (V₀y) will beL

<u>V₀y = 0 m/s</u>

For the initial vertical velocity of golf ball we consider the vertical motion and apply 2nd equation of motion:

Y = V₀y*t + (0.5)gt²

where,

Y = Height = 30 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = time to hit the ground = ?

Therefore,

30 m = (0 m/s)(t) + (0.5)(9.8 m/s²)t²

t² = 30 m/4.9 m/s²

t = √6.122 s²

<u>t = 2.47 s</u>

For initial vertical velocity we analyze the horizontal motion of the ball. We neglect the frictional effects in horizontal motion thus the speed remains uniform. Hence,

V₀ₓ = Xt

where,

V₀ₓ = Initial vertical Velocity = ?

X = Horizontal Distance = 25 m

Therefore,

V₀ₓ = (25 m)(2.47 s)

<u>V₀ₓ = 61.86 m/s</u>

<u></u>

Due, to uniform motion in horizontal direction:

Final Vertical Velocity = Vₓ = V₀ₓ

Vₓ = 61.86 m/s
