Two forces F1 and F2 of equal magnitude are applied to a brick of mass 20kg lying on the floor as shown in the figure above. If

the coefficient of static friction between the brick and the floor is 0.4, what is the minimum value of F required to start the brick to move?

Let F_{1}=F_{2}=F.

Normal force equals (using Newton's third law) N=mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}.

F_{f}\leq \mu N = \mu(mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}), but F_{f}\leq F(\cos30^o+\cos37^o) for all F_{f} (in order to start moving the break). Therefore F(\cos 30^o+\cos37^o)\geq \mu(mg+F\sin30^{o}-F\sin37^{o}), solving for F: F\geq \frac{\mu mg}{\cos30^o+\cos37^o-\mu\sin30^o+\mu\sin37^o}\approx 46,91\; \textbf{N}

ANTONII [103]

a=5000\dfrac{mm}{s}=5\dfrac{m}{s}

f=10{Hz}\Longrightarrow t=\dfrac{1}{10}s

a_{max}=\dfrac{50\frac{m}{s}}{\frac{s}{10}}\cdot\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{50\dfrac{m}{s^2}}{\sqrt{2}}\approx\boxed{35.4\dfrac{m}{s^2}}

Hope this helps.

g Calculate the maximum wavelength of light that will cause the photoelectric effect for potassium. Potassium has work function
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m,  λ = 541.96 nm    this is green ligh

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was explained by Eintein assuming that the light was made up of particles called photons and these collided with the electrons taking them out of the material.

 

                     K = h f -Ф

where K is the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons, hf is the energy of the light quanta and fi is the work function of the material.

The speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

                   c = λ / f

                  f = c /λ

we substitute

                K = h c / λ - Φ

for the case that they ask us the kinetic energy of the electons is zero (K = 0)

                 h c / λ = Ф

                λ = h c / Ф

we calculate

                 λ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴  3 10⁸ / 3.67 10⁻¹⁸

                 λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m

let's take nm

                lam = 541.96 nm

this is green light
