A 100 N force is applied to a 50 kg crate resting on a level floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.15. What is the acc
Nookie1986 [14]

The acceleration of the crate after it begins to move is 0.5 m/s²

We'll begin by calculating the the frictional force

Mass (m) = 50 Kg

Coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.15

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Normal reaction (N) = mg = 50 × 10 = 500 N

<h3>Frictional force (Fբ) =?</h3>

Fբ = μN

Fբ = 0.15 × 500

<h3>Fբ = 75 N</h3>

  • Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the crate

Frictional force (Fբ) = 75 N

Force (F) = 100 N

<h3>Net force (Fₙ) =?</h3>

Fₙ = F – Fբ

Fₙ = 100 – 75

<h3>Fₙ = 25 N</h3>

  • Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the crate

Mass (m) = 50 Kg

Net force (Fₙ) = 25 N

<h3>Acceleration (a) =?</h3>

a = Fₙ / m

a = 25 / 50

<h3>a = 0.5 m/s²</h3>

Therefore, the acceleration of the crate is 0.5 m/s²

What is wavelength ?

The distance over which a periodic wave's shape repeats is known as the wavelength in physics.  It is a property of both traveling waves and standing waves as well as other spatial wave patterns. It is the distance between two successive corresponding locations of the same phase on the wave, such as two nearby crests, troughs, or zero crossings.  The spatial frequency is the reciprocal of wavelength. The Greek letter lambda () is frequently used to represent wavelength. The term wavelength is also occasionally used to refer to modulated waves, their sinusoidal envelopes, or waves created by the interference of several sinusoids.

How does a rotating coil inside a magnetic field generate electricity?
Goryan [66]

Answer:

When an electrical current passes through a wire, a magnetic field is generated around it. Likewise, if the magnetic field around a wire is changed ( for example by rotating a coil inside a stationary manger), electricity will move through the wire.

This chart lists four examples of two objects that are in contact.
Oxana [17]

Before coming into conclusion first we have to understand the direction of heat flow.

Heat is the transferred thermal energy from one body to another body due to the temperature difference just like water flows from higher level to lower level.

Whenever two bodies having different temperature come closer to each other heat will flow from hotter body to cooler one if no external work is done. The heat flow may be through any of the ways i.e conduction,radiation or convection. Hence temperature difference is the parameter which gives the direction of heat flow.

The temperature is also considered as a measure of average kinetic energy of the substance.The thermal energy does not give the direction heat flow. Heat may  flow from the body  having low thermal energy but at higher temperature to the body having higher thermal energy but at low temperature. The reverse does not happen naturally .

In example 1 there is fire and air. Obviously fire is at high temperature and air at low temperature.So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2.

In example 2 there is a metal at 80 degree Celsius and another metal at 12 degree Celsius .So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2

In example 3 we have cooler ocean and warm air. So the heat will flow from object 2 to object 1.

In example 4 we have a tool with high thermal energy and a material with little thermal energy.We already know that thermal energy can not determine the direction of heat flow. Here the temperature of each substance is not given.The kinetic energy is  part of thermal energy.So there is the chance of higher kinetic energy of the tool for having higher thermal energy .At that time the heat will flow object 1 to object 2.Otherwise the reverse will occur. So it is a special case.

As per the question only option 4 is correct which tells that heat will flow from object 1 to object 2 in examples 1,2,4, and heat will flow from object 2 to 1 in example 3. Other options violate the fundamental law of thermodynamics.
