Answer:

The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

Explanation

Acceleration calculation

The car acceleration is equal to the acceleration of the truck

ac: car acceleration\frac{m}{s^{2} }

at: truck acceleration\frac{m}{s^{2} })

ac = at= \frac{vf-vi}{t-ti}  equation(1)

Known information:

vi = Initial speed = 0, ti = initial time = 0

vf = Final speed = 13 \frac{m}{s}, t = final time =5 s

We replaced the known information in the equation(1):

ac = at = \frac{13-0}{15-0}

ac=ac=\frac{13}{15}  \frac{m}{s}

Dynamic analysis

The forces acting on the car are the following:

Wc: Car weight

N: normal force, road force on the car

Ff: Friction force

T: Force of tension

Car weight calculation:

Wc=mc*g

mc = Car mass = 2230kg

g = Gravity acceleration=9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Wc= 2230*9.8

Wc=21854 N

Normal force calculation:

Newton's first law

sum Fy= 0

N-W=0

N=W

N=21854 N

Friction force calculation (Ff):

We have the formula to calculate the friction force:

Ff = μk * N  Equation (3)

μk kinetic coefficient of friction

We know that μk = 0.373and N= 21854N ,then:

Ff=0.373*21854

Ff=8151.54 N

Calculation of the tension force in the rope (T):

Newton's Second law

sum Fx= mc*ac

T-Ff=mc*ac

T=2230(\frac{13}{15}) + 8151.54

T=10084,21 N

Answer: The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

4. Which of the following would be a good reference point to describe the motion of a dog?
saul85 [17]

ANOTHER RUNNING DOG

Explanation:

In the given question it is to find a suitable reference point to describe  the motion of dog. Here I could suggest that it is better to compare the dog with  another running dog to create the relative speed difference to get a reliable motion variation.

Because the motion of dog is in the linear with respect to the another dog and to the acceleration produced by the dog in the required interval is easy to calculate with respect to  another dog which is already in motion.

Hence, I suggest that Motion of dog can be analysed better by analyse the motion variation of dog with  another dog running.

When is the velocity of a mass on a spring at its maximum value?
ehidna [41]

Answer:

A.  when the mass has a displacement of zero

Explanation:

The velocity of a mass on a spring can be calculated by using the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the total energy of the mass-spring system is equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy (U) of the spring and the kinetic energy (K) of the mass:

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement of the mass with respect to the equilibrium position of the spring

m is the mass

v is the velocity of the mass

Since the total energy E must remain constant, we can notice the following:

- When the displacement is zero (x=0), the velocity must be maximum, because U=0 so K is maximum

- When the displacement is maximum, the velocity must be minimum (zero), because U is maximum and K=0

Based on these observations, we can conclude that the velocity of the mass is at its maximum value when the displacement is zero, so the correct option is A.

Use the techniques to find the unit for speed​
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The formula for speed is speed=<u>d</u><u>i</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u>a</u><u>n</u><u>c</u><u>e</u>

time

Explanation:

to work out what the units are for speed,you need to know the units for distance and time.In this example,distance is in metres(m) and time is in seconds (s) , so the units for speed is metre per second (m/s).
