. A 1.50kg mass on a spring has a displacement as a function of time given by the equation: x(t) = (7.40cm)cos[(4.16s-1)t – 2.42

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Solution:

we have given the equation of motion is x(t)=8sint [where t in seconds and x in centimeter]

Position, velocity and acceleration are all based on the equation of motion.

The equation represents the position. The first derivative gives the velocity and the 2nd derivative gives the acceleration.

x(t)=8sint

x'(t)=8cost

x"(t)=-8sint

now at time t=2pi/3,

position, x(t)=8sin(2pi/3)=4*squart(3)cm.

velocity, x'(t)=8cos(2pi/3)==4cm/s

acceleration, x"(t)==8sin(2pi/3)=-4cm/s^2

so at present the direction is in y-axis.

When a parachutist jumps from an airplane, he eventually reaches a constant speed, called the terminal speed. Once he has reache

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

b) True. the force of air drag on him is equal to his weight.

Explanation:

Let us propose the solution of the problem in order to analyze the given statements.

The problem must be solved with Newton's second law.

When he jumps off the plane

fr - w = ma

Where the friction force has some form of type.

fr = G v + H v²

Let's replace

(G v + H v²) - mg = m dv / dt

We can see that the friction force increases as the speed increases

At the equilibrium point

fr - w = 0

fr = mg

(G v + H v2) = mg

For low speeds the quadratic depended is not important, so we can reduce the equation to

G v = mg

v = mg / G

This is the terminal speed.

Now let's analyze the claims

a) False is g between the friction force constant

b) True.

c) False. It is equal to the weight

d) False. In the terminal speed the acceleration is zero

e) False. The friction force is equal to the weight

Explanation:

1. Convex mirror is curved outward.

2. Convex mirror forms an image that is smaller than the object.

3. Concave mirror is used to focus light rays. That's why it is also known as a converging mirror.

4. Plane mirror has a flat surface. It forms the same size of the image as that of the object.

A box of mass 60 kg is at rest on a horizontal floor that has a static coefficient of friction of 0.6 and a kinetic coefficient

gavmur [86]

Answer:

a) The minimum force required to start moving the box is 352.86 N

b) i) The friction force for the box in motion is 147.025 N

ii) The acceleration of box is 4.21625 m/s²

Explanation:

The parameters of the box at rest and the floor are;

The mass of the box = 60 kg

The static coefficient friction of the floor = 0.6

The kinetic coefficient friction of the floor = 0.25

Frictional force = Normal force × Friction coefficient

For an horizontal floor and the box laying on the floor, we have;

The normal force = The weight of the box = Mass of the box × Acceleration due to gravity, g

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

The weight of the box = 60 × 9.81 = 588.6 N

a) The static coefficient gives the frictional force observed by the box and which must be surpassed to bring about motion

Therefore;

The minimum force required to start moving the box = The static frictional force = Weight of the box × The static coefficient of friction

The minimum force required to start moving the box = 588.1 × 0.6 = 352.86 N

The minimum force required to start moving the box = 352.86 N

b) i) When an horizontal force of 400 N is applied, the applied force is larger than the static friction force, and the box will be in motion with the kinetic coefficient of friction being the source of friction

The friction force for the box in motion = 588.1 × 0.25 = 147.025 N

ii) The force, F with the box is in motion, is given as follows;

F = Mass of box × Acceleration of box, a = Applied force - Kinematic friction force

F = 60 × a = 400 - 147.025 = 252.975 N

60 × a = 252.975 N

a = 252.975 N/(60 kg) = 4.21625 m/s²

Acceleration of box, a = 4.21625 m/s².
