The weight of the box is (mass) x (gravity) = (50 kg) x (9.8m/s²) = 490 newtons.

If the box is sliding at constant speed, and not speeding up or slowing down,
that means that the horizontal forces on it add up to zero. 

Since you're pushing on it with 53N in <em><u>that</u></em> direction, friction must be pulling
on it with 53N in the <u><em>other</em></u> direction.

 The 53N of friction is (the weight) x (the coefficient of kinetic friction).

                                                  53N  =  (490N) x (coefficient).

Divide each side by  490N :  Coefficient = (53N) / (490N)  =  0.1082 .

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, that's    <em>0.11 </em>.      (choice 'd')

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 15 mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.65 and 0.30
beks73 [17]

Answer:

T=575.16K

Explanation:

To solve the problem we proceed to use the 1 law of diffusion of flow,

Here,

J=-D\frac{\Delta C}{\Delta x}

\Delta C is the rate in concentration

\Delta xis the rate in thickness

D is the diffusion coefficient, where,

D= D_0 exp(\frac{Q_d}{RT})

Replacing D in the first law,

J=-(D_0 exp(\frac{-Q_D}{RT}))\frac{\Delta }{\Delta x}

clearing T,

T=\frac{Q_d}{R*ln(\frac{J*\Delta x}{D_0*\Delta C})}

Replacing our values

T=-\frac{80000}{8.31*ln(\frac{(6.2*10^{-7})(-15*10^{-3})}{(1.43*10^{-9})(0.65-0.30)})}

T=-\frac{80000}{-138.09}

T=575.16K

Suppose that a person gets hit by a bus moving at 30 mi/h with a 58,000 lbs of force in the direction of motion. If the mass of
alexandr402 [8]

The impulse of a force is due to the change in the motion of an object

A. The persons speed after impact is approximately 59.38 mi/h

B. The expected speed is <u>29.89 mi/h</u> which is less than the findings

Reason:

Known parameters are;

The speed of the bus, v = 30 mi/h

The force with which the person was hit, F = 58,000 lbs

Mass of the bus, M = 40,000 lbs

Mass of the person, m = 150 lbs

Duration of the impact, Δt = 0.007 seconds

A. The speed of the person at the end of the impact, <em>v</em>, is given as follows;

The impulse of the force = F × Δt = m × Δv

For the person, we get;

58,000 lbf ≈ 1866094.816 lb·ft./s²

58,000 lbf × 0.007 s = 150 lbs × Δv

1,866,094.816 lb·ft./s²

\Delta v = \dfrac{1,866,094.816\ lbs \times 0.007 \, s}{150 \, lbs} \approx  87.084  \ ft./s

Δv = v₂ - v₁

The initial speed of the person at the instant, can be as v₁ = 0

The final speed, v₂ = Δv - v₁

∴ v₂ ≈  87.084 ft./s - 0 = 87.084 ft./s

≈ <u>87.084 ft./s</u>

<u />v_2 \approx \dfrac{87.084 \ ft./s}{y} \times\dfrac{1 \ mi}{5280 \ ft.} \times \dfrac{3,600 \ s}{1 \, hour} \approx 59.38 \ mi/h<u />

The speed of the person at the end of the impact, v₂ ≈ <u>59.38 mi/h</u>

B. Where the momentum is conserved, we have;

m₁·v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)·v

v = \dfrac{m_1 \cdot v_1 + m_2 \cdot v_2}{m_2 + m_1}

v = \dfrac{40,000 \times 30  + 150 \times 0}{40,000 + 150} \approx 29.89

The expected speed of the person at the end of the impact is 29.89 mi/h, and therefore, <u>the findings does not agree with the expectation</u>

A +1.0 nC charge is at x = 0 cm, a -1.0 nC charge is at x = 1.0 cm and a 4.0 nC at x= 2 cm. What is the electric potential energ
lesantik [10]

Answer:

- 2.7 x 10^-6 J

Explanation:

q1 = 1 nC  at x = 0 cm

q2 = - 1 nC at x = 1 cm

q3 = 4 nC at x = 2 cm

The formula for the potential energy between the two charges is given by

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

where r be the distance between the two charges

By use of superposition principle, the total energy of the system is given by

U = U_{1,2}+U_{2,3}+U_{3,1}

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{2}q_{3}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{3}q_{1}}{0.02}

U=-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 1\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}+-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.02}

U = - 2.7 x 10^-6 J
