Two wooden crates rest on top of one another. The smaller top crate has a mass of m1 = 24 kg and the larger bottom crate has a m

ass of m2 = 86 kg. There is NO friction between the crate and the floor, but the coefficient of static friction between the two crates is μs = 0.79 and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two crates is μk = 0.62. A massless rope is attached to the lower crate to pull it horizontally to the right (which should be considered the positive direction for this problem). 1)The rope is pulled with a tension T = 234 N (which is small enough that the top crate will not slide). What is the acceleration of the small crate?
2)In the previous situation, what is the magnitude of the frictional force the lower crate exerts on the upper crate?
3)What is the maximum tension that the lower crate can be pulled at before the upper crate begins to slide?
4)The tension is increased in the rope to 1187 N causing the boxes to accelerate faster and the top box to begin sliding. What is the acceleration of the upper crate?m/s2
5)As the upper crate slides, what is the acceleration of the lower crate?

Answer:

The sum of all forces for the two objects with force of friction F and tension T are:

(i) m₁a₁ = F

(ii) m₂a₂ = T - F

1) no sliding infers: a₁ = a₂= a

The two equations become:

m₂a = T - m₁a

Solving for a:

a = T / (m₁+m₂) = 2.1 m/s²

2) Using equation(i):

F = m₁a = 51.1 N

3) The maximum friction is given by:

F = μsm₁g

Using equation(i) to find a₁ = a₂ = a:

a₁ = μs*g

Using equation(ii)

T = m₁μsg + m₂μsg = (m₁ + m₂)μsg = 851.6 N

4) The kinetic friction is given by: F = μkm₁g

Using equation (i) and the kinetic friction:

a₁ = μkg = 6.1 m/s²

5) Using equation(ii) and the kinetic friction:

m₂a₂ = T - μkm₁g

a₂ = (T - μkm₁g)/m₂ = 12.1 m/s²

A. The potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 62.00 N/m, is 0.940 J. Find by
valina [46]

a. The spring is compressed  by  0.174 m.

b.  The vertical distance the dart travels from its position when the spring is compressed to its highest position is 9.6 m.

c. The horizontal velocity of the dart at that time is  13.74 m/s.

d. The horizontal distance from the equilibrium position at which the dart hits the ground is 19.236 m.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

The energy by virtue of its position is called the potential energy.

a. Given is the potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 62.00 N/m, is 0.940 J.

PE  of spring = 1/2 kx²

Put the values, we get

P.E = 0.940 = 1/2 x 62 x²

x = 0.174 m

Thus, the spring is compressed by 0.174 m.

b. Given is a 0.010 kg dart is fired straight up.

The vertical height is find out by

0.940 J = (0.010 kg) (9.8 m/s²) h

h = 9.6 m

Thus, the vertical distance the dart travels from its position is 9.6 m

c. From the conservation of energy principle, total mechanical energy is conserved.

1/2 mv² =mgh

v = √2gh

Plug the values, we get

v = √2 x 9.8x 9.6

v = 13.74 m/s

Thus, the horizontal velocity is  13.74 m/s.

d.  Time that dart spends in air, t = √2h/g

t = √(2x9.6)/9.81

t = 1.4 s

The horizontal distance from the equilibrium position at which the dart hits the ground.

Horizontal distance = (Velocity on x direction) x time

Horizontal distance = 13.74 m/s x 1.4s

Horizontal distance = 19.236 m

Thus, the horizontal distance is 19.236 m.

The orbital radius of an electron in a hydrogen atom is 0.846 nm. What is its de Broglie wavelength?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The  value  is  \lambda   = 1.329 *10^{-9} \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  orbital radius is  r =  0.846nm =  0.846 *10^{-9} \ m

Generally the de Broglie wavelength is mathematically represented as

      \lambda  =  \frac{2 *  \pi  r}{4}

substituting values

     \lambda  =  \frac{ 2 * 3.142  *  0.846 *10^{-9}}{4}

    \lambda   = 1.329 *10^{-9} \  m

An electron in the n = 5 level of an h atom emits a photon of wavelength 1282.17 nm. to what energy level does the electron move
lions [1.4K]
This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3
