Answer:
(a) coefficient of friction = 0.451
This was calculated by the application of energy conservation principle (the total sum of energy in a closed system is conserved)
(b) No, it comes to a stop 5.35m short of point B. This is so because the spring on expanding only does a work of 43 J on the block which is not enough to meet up the workdone of 398 J against friction.
Explanation:
The detailed step by step solution to this problems can be found in the attachment below. The solution for part (a) was divided into two: the motion of the body from point A to point B and from point B to point C. The total energy in the system is gotten from the initial gravitational potential energy. This energy becomes transformed into the work done against friction and the work done in compression the spring. A work of 398J was done in overcoming friction over a distance of 6.00m. The energy used in doing so is lost as friction is not a conservative force. This leaves only 43J of energy which compresses the spring. On expansion the spring does a work of 43J back on the block is only enough to push it over a distance of 0.65m stopping short of 5.35m from point B.

The radiation help incubate the eggs by providing sufficient heat energy to the eggs until it hatches. <span>It keeps the eggs warm until they hatch. Radiation is one type of heat energy that is dissipated by waves. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
Answer:
The magnitude of the car's acceleration as it slows during braking is 36.81 m/s²
Explanation:
From the question, the given values are as follows:
Initial velocity, u = 90 m/s
final velocity, v = 0 m/s
distance, s = 110 m
acceleration, a = ?
Using the equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as
(90)² + 2 * 110 * a = 0
8100 + 220a = 0
220a = -8100
a = -8100/220
a = -36.81 m/s²
The value for acceleration is negative showing that car is decelerating to a stop. The magnitude of the car's acceleration as it slows during braking is therefore 36.81 m/s²
Newton was given the title "scientist" when he was given the Merit Badge at the age of 15. He continued to work in the field of science, and was considered a scientist until his death at the age of 84. That is a total of 69 years of work. Hope this helps!
