A bin is given a push across a horizontal surface. The bin has a mass m, the push gives it an initial speed of 1.60 m/s, and the

coefficient of kinetic friction between the bin and the surface is 0.150. (a) Use energy considerations to find the distance (in m) the bin moves before it stops. m (b) What If

Answer:

The bin moves 0.87 m before it stops.

Explanation:

If we analyze the situation and apply the law of conservation of energy to this case, we get:

Energy Dissipated through Friction = Change in Kinetic Energy of Bin (Loss)

F d = (0.5)(m)(Vi² - Vf²)

where,

F = Frictional Force = μR    

but, R = Normal Reaction = Weight of Bin = mg

Therefore, F = μmg

Hence, the equation becomes:

μmg d = (0.5)(m)(Vi² - Vf²)

μg d = (0.5)(Vi² - Vf²)

d = (0.5)(Vi² - Vf²)/μg

where,

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, bin finally stops)

Vi = Initial Velocity = 1.6 m/s

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.15

g = 9.8 m/s²

d = distance moved by bin before coming to stop = ?

Therefore,

d = (0.5)[(1.6 m/s)² - (0 m/s)²]/(0.15)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>d = 0.87 m</u>

Which of the following circuits can be used to measure the resistance of the heating element, shown as a resistor in the diagram
Wewaii [24]

In order to measure the resistance in the circuit, we need to know the voltage V and the current I in the circuit, this way we can calculate the resistance using the formula:

R=\frac{V}{I}

In order to calculate the current, we can use an amperemeter that must be in series with the circuit, this way it will not affect the circuit.

And in order to calculate the voltage, we can use a voltmeter that must be in parallel with the resistance, this way it will not affect the circuit.

The correct option that shows an amperemeter in series and a voltmeter in parallel is the fourth option.
