Using F = ma to the direction of travel;

-F = 1000 * a 

-F is due to the reverse direction of the frictional force. 

F = 0.8 * 1000 * 9.81 = 7250 N 
-7850 = 1000 * 9 
9 = -7.85m/s^2

Using V^2 = U^2 + 2aS to the direction of trabel 

0 = 20^2 + 2(-7.85)S 

S = 25.5m 

So the skid marks will be there for 25.5 which estimated is 26m. 

The correct answer is 26m. 

I hope this helps you out!

uniform ladder of length 6.0 m and weight 300 N leans against a frictionless vertical wall. The foot of the ladder isplaced 3.0
olganol [36]

Answer:

Fx1 (6 m) sin 60 = 300 (3 m) cos 60  balancing torques about floor

Fx1 = 900 * 1/2 / 5.20 = 86.6 N  this is the horizontal force that must be supplied by the wall to balance torques about the floor

This is also equal to the static force of friction that must be applied at the point of contact with the floor to balance forces in the x-direction.

Fx1 = Fx2 = 86.6 N

A stone with a weight of 5.29 N is launched vertically from ground level with an initial speed of 26.0 m/s, and the air drag on
makkiz [27]

Answer:

a) 19.4 m/s

b) 19 m/s

Explanation:

a) In the given question,

the potential energy at the initial point = Ui = 0

the potential energy at the final point = Uf = mgh

the kinetic energy at the initial point = Ki = 1/2 mv₀².

the kinetic energy at the final point = Kf = 0

work done by air= Ea= fh =  0.262 N

Now, using the law of conservation of energy

initial energy= final energy

Ki +Ui = Kf + Uf +Ea

1/2 mv₀² + 0 = 0 + mgh + fh

1/2 mv₀² = mgh + fh

h = v₀²/ 2g (1 +f/w)

calculate m

m= w/g = 5.29 /9.8

= 0.54 kg

h = 20 ²/ (2 x9.80) x (1 0.265/5.29)

h = 19.4 m.

b) 1/2 mv² + 2fh = 1/2 mv₀²

Vg = 19 m/s

professor190 [17]

Answer:

955.36 seconds ≈ 16 minutes

Explanation:

Power(P) is the rate of doing work(W)

That is, P = W/t, where t is the time.

multipying both sides with 't' and dividing with 'P', we get: t=W/P

Here, W = 5.35 x 10^10 J and P = 5.6 x 10^7 W ( 1 W = 1 J/s).

Therefore , on dividing W with P, we get 955.36 seconds.
