Answer:

The force of friction acting on block B is approximately 26.7N.  Note: this result does not match any value from your multiple choice list. Please see comment at the end of this answer.  

Explanation:

The acting force F=75N pushes block A into acceleration to the left. Through a kinetic friction force, block B also accelerates to the left, however, the maximum of the friction force (which is unknown) makes block B accelerate by 0.5 m/s^2 slower than the block A, hence appearing it to accelerate with 0.5 m/s^2 to the right relative to the block A.

To solve this problem, start with setting up the net force equations for both block A and B:

F_{Anet} = m_A\cdot a_A = F - F_{fr}\\F_{Bnet} = m_B\cdot a_B = F_{fr}

where forces acting to the left are positive and those acting to the right are negative. The friction force F_fr in the first equation  is due to A acting on B and in the second equation due to B acting on A. They are opposite in direction but have the same magnitude (Newton's third law). We also know that B accelerates 0.5 slower than A:

a_B = a_A-0.5 \frac{m}{s^2}

Now we can solve the system of 3 equations for a_A, a_B and finally for F_fr:

30kg\cdot a_A = 75N - F_{fr}\\24kg\cdot a_B = F_{fr}\\a_B= a_A-0.5 \frac{m}{s^2}\\\implies \\a_A=\frac{87}{54}\frac{m}{s^2},\,\,\,a_B=\frac{10}{9}\frac{m}{s^2}\\F_{fr} = 24kg \cdot \frac{10}{9}\frac{m}{s^2}=\frac{80}{3}kg\frac{m}{s^2}\approx 26.7N

The force of friction acting on block B is approximately 26.7N.

The human ear canal is, on average, 2.5cm long and aids in hearing by acting like a resonant cavity that is closed on one end an
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

3400 Hz

Explanation:

We know that

1 cm = 0.01 m

L = Length of the human ear canal = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

V = Speed of sound = 340 ms⁻¹

f = First resonant frequency

The human ear canal behaves as a closed pipe and for a closed pipe, nth resonant frequency is given as

f = \frac{(2n - 1)V}{4L}

for first resonant frequency, we have n = 1

Inserting the values

f = \frac{(2(1) - 1) 340}{4(0.025)}

f = \frac{340}{4(0.025)}

f = 3400 Hz

Consider a projectile of mass 20 kg launched with a speed 9 m/s at an elevation angle of 45 degrees. Taking the launch point as
viva [34]

Answer:

a) L=0. b) L = 262 k ^   Kg m²/s and c)  L = 1020.7 k^   kg m²/s

Explanation:

It is angular momentum given by

      L = r x p

Bold are vectors; where L is the angular momentum, r the position of the particle and p its linear momentum

One of the easiest ways to make this vector product is with the use of determinants

{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\x&y&z\\px&py&pz\end{array}\right]

Let's apply this relationship to our case

Let's start by breaking down the speed

      v₀ₓ = v₀ cosn 45

      voy =v₀ sin 45

      v₀ₓ = 9 cos 45

      voy = 9 without 45

      v₀ₓ = 6.36 m / s

      voy = 6.36 m / s

a) at launch point r = 0 whereby L = 0

. b) let's find the position for maximum height, we can use kinematics, at this point the vertical speed is zero

   vfy² = voy²- 2 g y

   y = voy² / 2g

   y = (6.36)²/2 9.8

   y = 2.06 m

Let's calculate the angular momentum

L= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\x&y&0\\px&0&0\end{array}\right]

L = -px y k ^

L = - (m vox) (2.06) k ^

L = - 20 6.36 2.06 k ^

L = 262 k ^   Kg m² / s

The angular momentum is on the z axis

c) At the point of impact, at this point the height is zero and the position on the x-axis is the range

     R = vo² sin 2θ / g

     R = 9² sin (2 45) /9.8

     R = 8.26 m

L = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\x&0&0\\px&py&0\end{array}\right]

L = - x py k ^

L = - x m voy

L = - 8.26 20 6.36 k ^

L = 1020.7 k^   kg m² /s

Which circuit is a series circuit ?? plz help
gregori [183]

In a series circuit, all of the components are connected in the same 'loop' and the current only has one direction/path it can flow through.

In the first three options, the current has multiple paths it can go through. So these three circuits are parallel and not series.

In the last option, the current only has one path where it can flow through, so that circuit is in series.

So Circuit <u>D </u>is a series circuit.

Answer

Circuit D
