Answer:

0.958891203 m/s²

Explanation:

N = Weight of crate = 900 N

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.25

Force of friction acting on the force applied

f=\mu N\\\Rightarrow f=0.25\times 900\\\Rightarrow f=225\ N

Force used to pull the crate

F=340cos 23\\\Rightarrow F=312.97165\ N

The net force is

F_n=F-f\\\Rightarrow F_n=312.97167-225\\\Rightarrow F_n=87.97167\ N

Acceleration is given by

a=\frac{F_n}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{87.97167}{\dfrac{900}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow a=0.958891203\ m/s^2

The magnitude of the acceleration of the crate is 0.958891203 m/s²

Pavlova-9 [17]
Taking right movement to be positive means leftward movement is negative.
Hence we have a deceleration of
a = - 2.5 {ms}^{ - 2}

t = 4s
v = 3.0 {ms}^{ - 1}
Using this 'suvat' equation
v = u + at
we can determine the initial velocity

3.0= u + -2.5(4)

3.0+2.5(4)=u

13.0 = u

Hence the initial velocity is 13.0 meters per seconds

A car goes around a curve of radius r at a constant speed v. Then it goes around a curve ofradius 2r at speed 2v. What is the ce
Rainbow [258]

The centripetal force on the car as it goes around the second curve is twice that compared to the first.

What is Centripetal force?

It is the force that is necessary to keep an object moving in a curved path and that is directed inward toward the center of rotation.

The formula of Centripetal force is:

F(c) = (m* v^2) / r

Here,

At the first curve,

The curve of radius = r

The constant speed = v

At the second curve,

The car speed (v')= 2 v

The radius of the curve (r')=2 r

According to the formula of centripetal Force:

As the car goes around the second curve,

F'(c) = m*v'^2 / r'

F'(c) = m* (2*v)^2 / 2r

F'(c) = 2* F

Thus,

The centripetal force on the car as it goes around the second curve is twice that compared to the first.

If the person drops box from 3.8 m how much energy is transferred from potential energy to kinetic energy
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Kinetic energy

When work is done the energy is transferred from one type to another. This transferred energy may appear as kinetic energy.

For example, when you pedal your bicycle so that its speed increases, you are doing work to transfer chemical energy from your muscles to the kinetic energy of the bicycle.

Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses by virtue of its movement. The amount of kinetic energy possessed by a moving object depends on the mass of the object and its speed. The greater the mass and the speed of the object the greater its kinetic energy.

The kinetic energy Ek of an object of mass m at a speed v is given by the relationship

{E_k} = \frac{1}{2}m{v^2}

m is the mass of the object in kilograms ( kg) and v is the speed of the object in metres per second ( m\,s^{-1}).

Explanation:

When work is done on an object it may also lead to energy being transferred to the object in the form of gravitational potential energy of the object.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has by virtue of its position above the surface of the Earth. When an object is lifted, work is done. When work is done in raising the height of an object, energy is transferred as a gain in the gravitational potential energy of the object.

For example, suppose you lift a suitcase of mass m through a height h. The weight W of the suit case is a downward force of size mg. In lifting the suitcase, you would have to pull upwards on it with a force equal in size to its weight, mg.

Two suitcases. One has a green force arrow pointing up labelled F and a purple force arrow pointing down labelled 'Weight = mg'. The other case is raised by a height labelled h.

Suitcases with forces and height labelled

When this force (equal to the weight mg, but upwards) is applied to the suitcase over the distance h:

Work\,done=force\,\times\,distance\,upwards=mg\,\times\,h

This energy is transferred to potential energy when raising the object through a known height.

Energy = mass \times gravitational\,field\,strength \times height

E = m \times g \times h

This is the relationship used to calculate gravitational potential energy.

{E_p} = mgh

where m is the mass of the object in kilograms (kg), g is the gravitational field strength, (for positions near the surface of the Earth g = 9∙8 newtons per kilogram ( N kg ^{-1} and h is the height above the surface of the Earth in metres ( m).

After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position
KiRa [710]

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2
