Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is, μ = 0.061

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the box, m = 50 kg

The force exerted by the person, F = 50 N

The time period of motion, t = 10 s

The frictional force acting on the box, f = 30 N

The normal force on the box, η = mg

= 50 x 9.8

= 490 N

The coefficient of friction,

μ = f/ η

= 30 / 490

= 0.061

Hence, the coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is, μ = 0.061

Given Information:

Resistance of circular loop = R = 0.235 Ω

Radius of circular loop = r = 0.241 m

Number of turns = n = 10

Voltage = V = 13.1 V

Required Information:

Magnetic field = B = ?

Answer:

Magnetic field = 0.00145 T

Explanation:

In a circular loop of wire with n number of turns and radius r and carrying a current I induces a magnetic field B

B = μ₀nI/2r

Where μ₀= 4πx10⁻⁷ is the permeability of free space and current in the loop is given by

I = V/R

I = 13.1/0.235

I = 55.74 A

B = 4πx10⁻⁷*10*55.74/2*0.241

B = 0.00145 T

Therefore, the magnetic field at the center of this circular loop is 0.00145 T

Two skaters, a man and a woman, are standing on ice. Neglect any friction between the skate blades and the ice. The mass of the

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

a₁ = 0.63 m/s² (East)

a₂ = -1.18 m/s² (West)

Explanation:

m₁ = 95 Kg

m₂ = 51 Kg

F = 60 N

a₁ = ?

a₂ = ?

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the man we apply

∑Fx = m*a (⇒)

F = m₁*a₁ ⇒ 60 N = 95 Kg*a₁

⇒ a₁ = (60N / 95Kg) = 0.63 m/s² (⇒) East

To get the acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the woman we apply

∑Fx = m*a (⇒)

F = -m₂*a₂ ⇒ 60 N = -51 Kg*a₂

⇒ a₂ = (60N / 51Kg) = -1.18 m/s² (West)

For every case we apply Newton’s 3 d Law

If the mass of an object is 8 kg and its momentum is -80 kgm/s, what is its velocity?

Dimas [21]

An object's momentum is the product of its mass and its velocity:

p = mv

p is its momentum, m is its mass, and v is its velocity.

Given values:

p = -80kg×m/s

m = 8kg

Plug in these values and solve for v:

-80 = 8v

v = -10m/s
