Answer:2987.7 J
Explanation:
Given
sled weight is 
Tension in rope 
Time interval 
velocity of sled 
here speed is equal to velocity which is constant therefore acceleration is zero
thus 
Distance traveled in
considering surface to be friction less
thus 
will do work on sled
Answer:
d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x is the required differential equation.
Explanation:
Since the spring force F = kx where k is the spring constant and x its extension = 2.45 equals the weight of the 4 kg mass,
F = mg
kx = mg
k = mg/x
= 4 kg × 9.8 m/s²/2.45 m
= 39.2 kgm/s²/2.45 m
= 16 N/m
Now the drag force f = 16v where v is the velocity of the mass.
We now write an equation of motion for the forces on the mass. So,
F + f = ma (since both the drag force and spring force are in the same direction)where a = the acceleration of the mass
-kx - 16v = 4a
-16x - 16v = 4a
16x + 16v = -4a
4x + 4v = -a where v = dx/dt and a = d²x/dt²
4x + 4dx/dt = -d²x/dt²
d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x which is the required differential equation
Haven't taken physics but I would assume if her friend is standing in front of her that you would add up the speeds and get 30 km/hr.
Acceleration in m/s^2 = 2/10 = 0.2 m/s^2
Answer: a) 7.1 * 10^3 N; b) -880 N directed out of the curve.
Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the Newton laws, then we have the following:
Pcos 15°-N=0
Psin15°-f= m*ac
from the first we obtain N, the normal force
N=750Kg*9.8* cos (15°)= 7.1 *10^3 N
Then to calculate the frictional force (f) we can use the second equation
f=P sin (15°) -m*ac where ac is the centripetal acceletarion which is equal to v^2/r
f= 750 *9.8 sin(15°)-750*(85*1000/3600)^2/150= -880 N
