. A truck is traveling at a speed of 25.0 m/sec along a level road. A crate is resting on the bed of the truck, and the coeffici

ent of static friction between the crate and the truck bed is 0.650. Determine the shortest distance in which the truck can come to a halt without causing the crate to slip forward relative to the truck.

Answer:

98.12 m

Explanation:

Initial speed(v) = 25.0 m/s

Coefficient of static friction (u) = 0.650

The minimum value of the coefficient of kinetic friction should be the coefficient of static friction.

Kinetic friction is given as

umg = ma (a is the required acceleration)

We then have

a = -ug

= -(0.65*9.8)

= -6.37 m/s^2

The shortest distance d is obtained by

d = (V^2 - v^2)/ 2a

V = 0 m/s (final velocity)

d = (0 - 25^2) / 2(-6.37)

d = -625/-6.37

d = 98.12 m

An elevator accelerates upward at 1.2 m/s 2 . the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . what is the upward force exerted by the
Marysya12 [62]
We can find the force by using the following formula;
N = ma +  mg
Fa = ma = 76 x 1.2 = 91.2
Fg = mg = 76 x 9.8 = 744.8
N = 91.2 + 744.8 = 836
So, the force is 836 N.

Assign a positive velocity to the red box and negative velocity to the blue box. Are they moving in opposite direction?
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

<em>Yes, they are moving in opposite direction one to the other.</em>

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector quantity, which means that it has both magnitude and direction. The magnitude shows the size of the velocity, and the direction shows which way it is moving in reference to a chosen reference direction. If the red box is assigned a positive velocity, and the blue box is assigned a negative velocity, as indicated in the question, then it means that the red box, and the blue box, both move in opposite direction to the other.
