A boy coasts down a hill on a sled, reaching a level surface at the bottom with a speed of 5.9 m/s. if the coefficient of fricti

on between the sled's runners and snow is 0.045 and the boy and sled together weigh 590 n, how far does the sled travel on the level surface before coming to rest?

Frictional force = vertical force x coeff of friction = 590N x 0.045 = 26.55N

Mass of boy and sled = 590N / g = 590N / 9.8m/s^2 = 60.20 kg

Deceleration due to friction = 26.55N / 60.20kg = 0.44 m/s^2.

For constant acceleration we have:

v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and ti is time. In this case v = 0, u = 5.9 m/s, a = -0.44 m/s^2. So we have
0 = 5.9 - 0.44t
which gives t = 5.9 / 0.44 = 13.409 s.

Distance traveled in this time d = ut + 0.5at^2 = 5.9 x 13.409 - 0.5 x 0.44 x 13.409^2 = 39.56 m

Two spherical objects are separated by a distance of 2.59 × 10-3 m. The objects are initially electrically neutral and are very
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Number of electrons, n = 12 electron

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between charged spheres, d=2.59\times 10^{-3}\ m

The object experiences an electrostatic force that has a magnitude of, F=4.94\times 10^{-21}\ N

The electric force between spheres is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq^2}{d^2}

q=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fd^2}{k}}

q=\sqrt{\dfrac{4.94\times 10^{-21}\times (2.59\times 10^{-3})^2}{9\times 10^9}}

q=1.91\times 10^{-18}\ C

Let there are n number of electrons. Using quantization of electric charge we get :

q=ne

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{1.91\times 10^{-18}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n = 11.93 electrons

or

n = 12 electrons

Hence, 12 electrons produce the charge on one of the objects.

According to the law of conservation of energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Remember, potential energy is calculated using height and weight. If the ball is on the ground, height is 0.

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 592.37m

Explanation:

Person D is the blue line.

The total displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position, if the initial position is (0,0) we have that he first goes down two blocks, then right 6 blocks. then up 4 blocks, then left 1 block.

Now i will considerate that the positive x-axis is to the right and the positive y-axis is upwards.

Then the new position will be, if B is a block:

P =(6*B - 1*B, -2*B + 4*B) = (5*B, 2*B)

And we know that B = 110m

P = (550m, 220m)

Now, then the displacement will be equal to the magnitude of our vector, (because the difference between P and the initial position is equal to P, as the initial position is (0,0))  this is:

P = √(550^2 + 220^2) = 592.37m
