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.

What is the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of refraction when light passes from a medium where its sp
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

This is because the speed of a wave is determined by the medium through which it is passing. When light speeds up as it passes from one material to another, the angle of refraction is bigger than the angle of incidence. For example, this happens when light passes from water to air or from glass to water ❤

Someone Help me please
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

a) Yes because spiderman isn’t part of the system (the train), so he exerts an external force on the system, causing it to slow. The sign is negative because the train is slowing negative.

b) The train was initially moving, so it had kinetic energy, the energy of movement. There isn’t the same amount anymore because spiderman did work onto the train. Work is defined by the change of kinetic energy of the system, so the train didn’t have the same amount of that type of energy at the end.

I hope this helps! :)

Which word means "to get away from something"? <br> a become b dream c escape d practice
klemol [59]

The correct answer is - c. escape.

The word ''escape'' means to get away from something. This word can be used for multiple different situations, and it can refer to both physical and psychological matters.

In a physical sense it can be used to escape from certain unpleasant, or dangerous situation. Example: I have to escape from this prison.

In a psychological sense it can be used to escape, move away, from a certain state of mind. Example: I have to find an escape from my depressive thoughts.

A fan cart with the fan set to high rolled across the floor. The cart's speeds with the fan on high are shown below. If the fan
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Speed of cart's might be less than the high speed after 5 seconds.

Explanation:

Given that,

A fan cart with the fan set to high rolled across the floor.

Let the speed of fan cart with set to high is x\ cm per second.

The fan supplies a force to the cart. If a lower fan speed were used, less force would be applied. This would cause a slower change in the cart's speed. So, the cart would be rolling more slowly than x\ cm per second after 5 seconds. The speed of cart's might be less than x\ cm per second.

Force is needed

A. for a moving object to keep moving at the same speed and direction

B. for a moving object to change its speed

C. for a motionless object to remain still

D. to prevent a moving object from turning

Hence,

Speed of cart's might be less than the high speed after 5 seconds.
