You take the same 3 kg metal block and slide it along the floor, where the coefficient of friction is only 0.4. You release the

block with an initial velocity of 6 m/s. How long will it take for the block to come to stop? How far does the block move?

Answer:

1.52905 seconds

4.58715 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

\mu = Coefficient of friction = 0.4

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

a = Acceleration = \mu g

Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{\mu g}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-6}{-0.4\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=1.52905\ s

It will take 1.52905 seconds for the block to slow down

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2\mu g}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-6^2}{2\times 0.4\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=4.58715\ m

The block will travel 4.58715 m before it stops

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

V=3.475ft^3/s=3.48ft^3/s

Explanation:

We have here values from SI and English Units. I will convert the units to English Units.

We hace for the power P,

P= 100kW \rightarrow 100kW*(\frac{737.56ft.lbf/s}{1kW})

P= 73.7*10^{3}ft.lbf/s

we have other values such h=400ft and  \gamma= 62.42lb/ft^3 (specific weight of the water), and 0.85 for \eta

We need to figure the flow rate of the water (V) out, that is,

V=\frac{P}{\gamma h \eta_0}

Where \eta_0 is the turbine efficiency, at which is,

\eta_0 = \frac{P}{\gamma Vh}

Replacing,

V=\frac{73.7*10^{3}}{62.42*400*0.85}

V=3.475ft^3/s

With this value (the target of this question) we can also calculate the mass flow rate of the waters,

through the density and the flow rate,

m=\rho V\\m= 3.475*1.94 \\m=6.7415 slugs/s

converting the slugs to lbm, 1slug = 32.174lbm, we have that the mass flow rate of the water is,

m= 217lbm/s

Calculate the force on an object that has a mass of 12 kg and an acceleration of 4 m/s^2
kati45 [8]
Remember Newton's Second Law F = mass * acceleration

mass = 12 kg
acceleration = 4 m/s^2

F = 12 * 4 = 48 N

Yuliya22 [10]

The total amount of energy transferred as heat is equal to 288 Joules.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Internal energy = 123 Joules
  • Work done = 165 Joules

To calculate the total amount of energy transferred as heat, we would apply the first law of thermodynamics.​

<h3>The first law of thermodynamics.</h3>

Mathematically, the first law of thermodynamics is given by the formula:

\Delta E = Q - W

<u>Where;</u>

  • \Delta E is the change in internal energy.
  • Q is the quantity of heat transferred.
  • W is the work done.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

123 = Q - 165\\\\Q=123+165

Q = 288 Joules.
