Answer:

Coefficient

Explanation:

For an object on level ground, the ratio of the friction force to the weight is the coefficient of friction.

F / W = μ

You push a 85 kg shopping cart from rest with a net force of 250 n for 5 seconds,at which point it flies off a cliff that is 100
Vikki [24]

m = mass of the cart = 85 kg

F = net force on the cart = 250 N

a = acceleration of the cart

acceleration of the cart is given as

a = F/m

a = 250/85

a = 2.94 m/s²

t = time for which the force is applied = 5 sec

v₀ = initial velocity of the cart = 0 m/s

v = final velocity of the cart just before  it flies off the cliff = ?

using the equation

v = v₀ + a t

inserting the values

v = 0 + (2.94) (5)

v = 14.7 m/s

consider the motion of cart after it flies off the cliff in vertical direction :

v' = initial velocity in vertical direction = 0 m/s

a' = acceleration in vertical direction = g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

t' = time taken for the cart to land = ?

Y' = vertical displacement of the cart = height of cliff = 100 m

using the kinematics equation

Y' = v' t' + (0.5) a' t'²

100 = (0) t' + (0.5) (9.8) t'²

t' = 4.52 sec


consider the motion of cart along the horizontal direction after it flies off the cliff

X = distance traveled from the base of cliff = ?

t' = time of travel = 4.52 sec

v = velocity along the horizontal direction = 14.7 m/s

distance traveled from the base of cliff is given as

X = v t'

X = 14.7 x 4.52

X  = 66.4 m

A negative charge is at rest at the origin of an axis system. Location x is at coordinate point (2m,3m) while location y is at (
Sergeu [11.5K]
The magnitude of the E-field decreases as the square of the distance from the charge, just like gravity.

Location ' x ' is  √(2² + 3²) = √13 m  from the charge.

Location ' y ' is √ [ (-3)² + (-2)² ] = √13 m from the charge.

The magnitude of the E-field is the same at both locations.

The direction is also the same at both locations ... it points toward the origin.

Two electrons are initially at rest separated by a distance of 2nm. At time t=0, they start to move apart due to Coulombic repul
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

t=2.5\times 10^{-14}\ s

Explanation:

We know that charge on electron

q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

r= 2 nm

We know that force between two charge given

F=K\dfrac{Q_1Q_2}{r^2}

Now by putting the value

F=9\times10^9\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{(2\times 10^{-9})^2}

F=5.67\times 10^{-11}\ N

We know that mass of electron

The mass of electron

m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg

F= m a

a= Acceleration of electron

a= F/m

a=\dfrac{5.67\times 10^{-11}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}\ m/s^2

a=6.2\times 10^{19} m/s^2

S=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

initial velocity given that zero ,u=0

20\times 10^{-9}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.2\times 10^{19} t^2

t=\sqrt {\dfrac{40\times 10^{-9}}{6.2\times 10^{19}}}

t=2.5\times 10^{-14}\ s

If the person drops box from 3.8 m how much energy is transferred from potential energy to kinetic energy
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Kinetic energy

When work is done the energy is transferred from one type to another. This transferred energy may appear as kinetic energy.

For example, when you pedal your bicycle so that its speed increases, you are doing work to transfer chemical energy from your muscles to the kinetic energy of the bicycle.

Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses by virtue of its movement. The amount of kinetic energy possessed by a moving object depends on the mass of the object and its speed. The greater the mass and the speed of the object the greater its kinetic energy.

The kinetic energy Ek of an object of mass m at a speed v is given by the relationship

{E_k} = \frac{1}{2}m{v^2}

m is the mass of the object in kilograms ( kg) and v is the speed of the object in metres per second ( m\,s^{-1}).

Explanation:

When work is done on an object it may also lead to energy being transferred to the object in the form of gravitational potential energy of the object.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has by virtue of its position above the surface of the Earth. When an object is lifted, work is done. When work is done in raising the height of an object, energy is transferred as a gain in the gravitational potential energy of the object.

For example, suppose you lift a suitcase of mass m through a height h. The weight W of the suit case is a downward force of size mg. In lifting the suitcase, you would have to pull upwards on it with a force equal in size to its weight, mg.

Two suitcases. One has a green force arrow pointing up labelled F and a purple force arrow pointing down labelled 'Weight = mg'. The other case is raised by a height labelled h.

Suitcases with forces and height labelled

When this force (equal to the weight mg, but upwards) is applied to the suitcase over the distance h:

Work\,done=force\,\times\,distance\,upwards=mg\,\times\,h

This energy is transferred to potential energy when raising the object through a known height.

Energy = mass \times gravitational\,field\,strength \times height

E = m \times g \times h

This is the relationship used to calculate gravitational potential energy.

{E_p} = mgh

where m is the mass of the object in kilograms (kg), g is the gravitational field strength, (for positions near the surface of the Earth g = 9∙8 newtons per kilogram ( N kg ^{-1} and h is the height above the surface of the Earth in metres ( m).
