Apply the wave equation:
v = wavelength × frequency
v = 8 m × 4 Hz = 32 m/s.

An object slides on a level surface in the +x direction. It slows and comes to a stop with a constant acceleration of -2.45 m/s2
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

uk = 0.25

Explanation:

Given:-

- An object comes to stop with acceleration, a = -2.45 m/s^2

Find:-

What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the floor?

Solution:-

- Assuming the object has mass (m) that slides over a rough surface with coefficient of kinetic friction (uk). There is only Frictional force (Ff) acting in the horizontal axis on the object opposing the motion (-x direction).

- We will apply equilibrium equation on the object in vertical direction.

                               N - m*g = 0

                               N = m*g

Where,  N : Contact force exerted by the surface on the floor

             g : Gravitational acceleration constant = 9.81 m/s^2

- Now apply Newton's second law of motion in the horizontal ( x-direction ):

                             - Ff = m*a

- The frictional force is related to contact force (N) by the following expression:

                              Ff = uk*N

- Substitute the 1st and 3rd expressions in the 2nd equation:

                             uk*m*g = -m*a

                             uk = a / g

- Plug in the values and solve for uk:

                             uk = - (-2.45) / 9.81

                             uk = 0.25

A wheel rotates about a fixed axis with a constant angular acceleration of 4.0 rad/s2. The diameter of the wheel is 40 cm. What
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

v = 0.42m/s

Explanation:

In order o calculate the linear speed of the point at the border of the wheel, you first take into account that the total acceleration of such a point is given by:

a_{total}^2=a_r^2+a_t^2       (1)

atotal: total acceleration = 1.2m/s^2

ar: radial acceleration of the wheel

at: tangential acceleration

The tangential acceleration is also given by:

a_t=r\alpha     (2)

r: radius of the wheel = (40cm/2 )= 20cm = 0.2m

α: angular acceleration = 4.0rad/s^2

You replace the expression (2) into the expression (1) and solve for the radial acceleration:

a_{total}^2=a_r^2+(r\alpha)^2\\\\a_r=\sqrt{(a_{total})^2-(r\alpha)^2}\\\\a_r=\sqrt{(1.2m/s^2)^2-((0.2m)(4.0rad/s^2))^2}=0.894\frac{m}{s^2}

Next, you use the following formula for the radial acceleration and solve for the linear speed:

a_r=\frac{v^2}{r}\\\\v=\sqrt{ra_r}=\sqrt{(0.2m)(0.894m/s^2)}=0.42\frac{m}{s}

The linear speed of the point at the border of the wheel is 0.42m/s

In this problem, you will analyze a system composed of two blocks, 1 and 2, of respective masses m1 and m2. To simplify the anal
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

a) p = m1 v1 + m2 v2 , b) dp / dt = m1 a1 + m2 a2 , c) It is equivalent to force

dp / dt = 0

Explanation:

In this problem we have two blocks and the system is formed by the two bodies.

Part A. Initially they ask us to find the moment of the whole system

    p = m1 v1 + m2 v2

Part B.

Find the derivative

     dp / dt = m1 dv1dt + m2 dv2 / dt

     dp / dt = m1 a1 + m2 a2

Part C.

Let's analyze the dimensions

     m a = [kg] [m / s2] = [N]

It is equivalent to force

Part d

Acceleration is due to a net force applied

Part e

The acceleration of block 1 is due to the force exerted by block 2 during the moment change

Part f

Force of block 1 on block 2

True f12 = m1a1        f21 = m2a2

Part g

By the law of action and reaction are equal magnitude F12 = f21

Part H

     dp / dt = 0

Isolated system F12 = F21 and the masses are constant. The total moment is only redistributed

A 10 m long glider with a mass of 680 kg (including the passengers) is gliding horizontally through the air at 30 m/s when a 68
timama [110]

Answer:

 v = 30.39 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of glider,M = 680 Kg

mass of the skydiver, m = 68 Kg

horizontal velocity,V = 30 m/s

when skydiver releases, velocity,v = 30 m/s

velocity if the glider,v' =  ?

use the conservation of momentum

M V = m' v' +  m v

m' = 680-68 = 612 Kg

680 x 30 = 612 x v + 60 x 30

612 v = 18600

 v = 30.39 m/s

since the skydiver's speed will be the same as before release

The glider should continue to travel at 30.39 m/s since there are no external forces acting on it
