Answer:

4.2 m

Explanation:

Note: If energy is conserved, i.e no work is done against friction

Work input = work output.

Work output = Force output × distance,

Work input = force input × distance moved moved.

Therefore,

input force×distance moved = output force × distance moved........................Equation 1

Given: input force = 80 N, output force = 240 N, output distance = 1.4 m

Let input distance = d

Substitute into equation 1

80×d = 240×1.4

80d = 336

d = 336/80

d = 4.2 m.

Thus the rope around the pulley must be pulled 4.2 m

How far will it go, given that the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10 and the push imparts an initial speed of 3.9 m/s ?
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:19.5 m

Explanation:

Given

coefficient of kinetic Friction \mu _k=0.10

Initial speed u=3.9\ m/s

Friction is present so it tries to stop to the object and stops it completely after moving certain distance let say s

maximum deceleration provided by friction is

a_{max}=\mu _k\cdot g

a_{max}=0.1\times 3.9=0.39\ m/s^2

using equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2 as

where v=final\ velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

(0)-(3.9)^2=2\times (-0.39)\times s

s=19.5\ m

No if radiactive plutonium is burnt in the air it produces plutonium oxide.do we expect the oxide to be radiactive
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

A naturally radioactive element of the actinide metals series. Plutonium is used as a nuclear fuel, to produce radioisotopes for research, Plutonium dioxide is formed when plutonium or its compounds (except the phosphates) are ignited in air, and  Plutonium oxide fired at temperatures 600 C is difficult to rapidly.

Aloiza [94]

In  making a thermometer used to monitor the temperature of the water, a glass tube, a scale, and a thermometric liquid such as alcohol is required.

<h3>What is a thermometer?</h3>

A thermometer is an instrument that is used to measure or read the temperature of a body or a substance.

There are different types of thermometers such as:

  • Liquid-in-glass thermometers
  • Gas thermometers
  • Resistance thermometers

A simple liquid-in-glass thermometer consists of the following parts:

  • A glass tube
  • A scale
  • A thermometric liquid such as alcohol

Therefor, in making a thermometer used to monitor the temperature of the water, a glass tube, a scale, and a thermometric liquid such as alcohol is required.

In conclusion, a thermometer is the instrument used in measuring temperature.

At the instant the traffic light turns green, an automobile that has been waiting at an intersection starts ahead with a constan
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

(A) Distance taken by automobile to overtake truck is 175.23 m

(B) Final speed of the automobile is 29.6 m/s.

Explanation:

According to the problem, the automobile is at rest, so its initial speed is zero and the automobile is moving with constant acceleration.

The general equation of motion is:

d = ut + 0.5at²      .....(1)

Here d is distance, a is acceleration, t is time and u is initial speed.

The distance (d₁) travel by the automobile after green light in time t is given by the relation :

d₁ = u₁t + 0.5at²

We know that its initial velocity is zero i.e. u = 0 m/s.

d₁ = 0.5at²      ......(2)

The truck is moving with constant speed, so its acceleration is zero. Therefore, the distance covered by the truck using equation (1) is;

d₂ = u₂t         .......(3)

Since, the distance travelled by automobile and truck are same. Hence,

d₁ = d₂

0.5at² = u₂t

t = 2u₂/a

Substitute 14.8 m/s for u₂ and 2.50 m/s² for a in the above equation.

t = \frac{2\times14.8}{2.50}

t = 11.84 s

(A) Distance travelled by automobile, d = u₂t =14.8 x 11.84 = 175.23 m

(B) Final speed of the automobile is given by the relation:

v = u + at

v = 0 + 2.50 x 11.84

v = 29.6 m/s

denis23 [38]

(a)The required speed for take off will be 24.49 m/sec.

(b)The minimum length must the runway have 193 m.

<h3>What is speed?
</h3>

Speed is defined as the rate of change of the distance or the height attained. it is a time-based quantity. it is denoted by u for the initial speed while v for the final speed. its SI unit is m/sec.

(a)The required speed for take off will be 24.49 m/sec.

From the Newtons third equation of motion;

\rm  v^2 = u^2+2as \\\\ v=0+2 \times 2 \times 150 \\\\ v=\sqrt{600}\\\\ v=24.49 \ m/sec

Hence, the required speed for take off will be 24.49 m/sec.

(b)The minimum length must the runway have 193 m.

From the Newtons third equation of motion;

\rm v^2 = u^2+2as \\\\ (27.78)^2 = 0+2\times 2 s \\\\\ s=192.93 \ m

Hence, the minimum length must the runway have 193 m.
