A force in the +x-direction with magnitude F(x)=18.0N−(0.530N/m)x is applied to a 8.40 kg box that is sitting on the horizontal,

frictionless surface of a frozen lake. F(x) is the only horizontal force on the box. So, If the box is initially at rest at x=0, what is its speed after it has traveled 16.0 m? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Answer:v=7.24 m/s

Explanation:

Given

F(x)=18-0.530 x

mass m=8.40 kg

box is at rest at x=0

Distance traveled=16 m

mv\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} x}=F=\left ( 18-0530x\right )dx

\int_{0}^{v}vdv=\int_{0}^{16}\left ( 18-0.530x\right )dx

\frac{mv^2}{2}=\left ( 18x-0530\frac{x^2}{2}\right )_0^{16}

v^2=\frac{288-67.841\times 2}{8.40}

v=7.24 m/s

A wheel rolls purely on ground. If the velocity of a point 'P as shown on periphery of a body has a velocity equal
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

(1) 120°

Explanation:

The wheel is purely rolling, which means it rotates about an axis through the point where it touches the ground (see Figure 11-6).

The net velocity at point P on the periphery, relative to the bottom of the wheel, is:

v = ωr

where r is the distance from the point at the bottom of the wheel to P (see diagram).

To find r, we need to use some geometry.  From Inscribed Angle Theorem, we know the inscribed angle is half the arc angle.  And from Thales' Theorem, we know an angle inscribed across a diameter is a right angle.

Therefore:

cos (θ/2) = r / (2R)

r = 2R cos (θ/2)

So the net velocity at P is:

v = 2Rω cos (θ/2)

We want this to equal the velocity at the center of the circle, which is Rω.

Rω = 2Rω cos (θ/2)

1 = 2 cos (θ/2)

cos (θ/2) = 1/2

θ/2 = 60°

θ = 120°

How quickly can the light struck reaction occur when unprotected beer is exposed to the proper wavelength of light?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

If the beer is in the crystal clear glass, unprotected from the sunlight then it will starts skunking within 30 seconds. The reason behind the skunking of the beer is a photo chemical reaction. So one can avoid the skunking of beer by packaging it in the cans or opaque bottles.

Pilots often take advantage of the ____,which are highly-speed winds between 7km and 16 km above earths surface.
lukranit [14]
I believe it is called or referred to as the "Jet Stream". During World War II, allied pilots encountered high speed winds in the upper air. They named those winds after the fastest planes they came up against: fighters equipped with jet engines! Jet stream winds in winter time can reach up to 300 MPH as well!
