Answer:

1101.96 J

Explanation:

Potential energy at top = mgh = 24*10*5 = 1200J

Kinetic energy at bottom = 1/2*m*v² = 0.5*24*(2.8)²= 94.08 J

Loss of energy = 1200 J - 98.04 J

                         = 1101.96 J

Thermal energy due to friction =1101.96 J

If a toy car has a centripetal acceleration of 50 m/s2 and was making the turn at 10 m/s. what was his radius
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is expressed as;

a = v²/r

a is the acceleration = 50m/s²

v is the velocity = 10m/s

r is the radius

To get the radius

r = v²/a

r = 10²/50

r = 100/50

r = 2m

Hence its radius is 2m

A woman exerts a horizontal force of 113 N on a crate with a mass of 31.2 kg.
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

a) 113N

b) 0.37

Explanation:

a) Using the Newton's second law:

\sum Fx =ma

Since the crate doesn't move (static), acceleration will be zero. The equation will become:

\sum Fx = 0

\sumFx = Fm - Ff = 0.

Fm is the applied force

Ff is the frictional force

Since Fm - Ff = 0

Fm = Ff

This means that the applied force is equal to the force of friction if the crate is static.

Since applied force is 113N, hence the magnitude of the static friction force will also be 113N

b) Using the formula

Ff = nR

n is the coefficient of friction

R is the reaction = mg

R = 31.2 × 9.8

R = 305.76N

From the formula

n = Ff/R

n = 113/305.76

n = 0.37

Hence the minimum possible value of the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor is 0.37

The ball is displaced to the left and then oscillates backwards and forwards between the two plates. The ball touches a plate on
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Average current produced by the repeated transfer of charge is 5.6 × 10⁻⁷ ampere

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is

Q = It

where Q is the quantity of electricity and it is measured coulombs (C); 2.8 × 10⁻⁸ C or 0.000000028 C

I is current and it is measured in ampere (amps or A); unknown

t is time and it is measured in seconds (s); 0.05 s

Since, average current is what is unknown

I =Q/t

I = 0.000000028/0.05

I = 5.6 × 10⁻⁷ A

Average current produced by the repeated transfer of charge is 5.6 × 10⁻⁷ ampere

A jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds. The jogger starts at the origin and runs in the positive direction
Elis [28]

Answer:

(a) 25 m

(b) 75 m

Explanation:

Given that the jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds.

So, the speed of the jogger,

v=\frac{10}{2}=5m/s\;\cdots(i)

Let d be the distance covered by him in time, t s.

As distance=(speed) x (time)

So, d=vt

From equation (i)

\Rightarrow d=5t\;\cdots(ii)

As the jogger starts from origin, so, the distance, d, also represents the position of the jogger at the time t s.

The position-time graph has been shown.

(a) From equation (ii), for t=5.0 s

d=5\times 5=25 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 25 m from the origin.

(b) Similarly, for t=15.0 s

d=5\times 15=75 m

So, the jogger is at a distance of 75 m from the origin.
