Answer:

a)W= 1 J

b)W= 1 J

c)W= 0 J

Explanation:

Given that

m = 5 kg

Coefficient of kinetic friction,K=0.5

d= 10 cm

We know that if velocity is constant it means that the acceleration of the system is zero.Or we can say that all forces are balance in the system.

We know that work is the dot product of force and displacement

W= F.d

The friction force on the box

Fr= K m g

Fr= 0.5 x 5 x 10 = 25 N                      ( take g =10 m/s²)

Fr=25 N

a)

Acceleration a= 0

So horizontal force F = Fr

W = Fr.d

W=10 x 0.1 J

W= 1 J

b)

The work done by friction force

W= 1 J

c)

The net force on the system is zero because acceleration is zero.

F= 0

So

W= 0 J

A moving curling stone, A, collides head on with stationary stone, B. Stone B has a larger mass than stone A. If friction is neg
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'c': Smaller stone rebounds while as larger stone remains stationary.

Explanation:

Let the velocity and the mass of the smaller stone be 'm' and 'v' respectively

and the mass of big rock be 'M'

Initial momentum of the system equals

p_i=mv+0=mv

Now let after the collision the small stone move with a velocity v' and the big roch move with a velocity V'

Thus the final momentum of the system is

p_f=mv'+MV'

Equating initial and the final momenta we get

mv=mv'+MV'\\\\m(v-v')=MV'.....i

Now since the surface is frictionless thus the energy is also conserved thus

E_i=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Similarly the final energy becomes

E_f=\frac{1}{2}mv'^2+\frac{1}{2}MV'^2\

Equating initial and final energies we get

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}mv'^2+\frac{1}{2}MV'^2\\\\mv^2=mv'^2+MV'^2\\\\m(v^2-v'^2)=MV'^2\\\\m(v-v')(v+v')=MV'^2......(ii)

Solving i and ii we get

v+v'=V'

Using this in equation i we get

v'=\frac{v(m-M)}{(M-m)}=-v

Thus putting v = -v' in equation i  we get V' = 0

This implies Smaller stone rebounds while as larger stone remains stationary.

How can you use a ticker tape timer in describing motion graphically?
Bad White [126]
Ticker Tape analysis is a common way of analyzing the motion of the objects to perform in the physics laboratory. A long tape is attached to a moving object and threaded through a device that places a tick upon the tape at regular intervals of time. This ticker tape can also determine if the object is fast or slow. It can also reveal if the object is moving with a constant velocity or accelerating. The changing velocity and acceleration represented by the changing distance between dots in the ticker tape. And also the constant velocity and therefore no acceleration represent the constant distance between dots.

our lab partner wears a new pair of sneakers to lab and, rather than performing the required experiments, you decide to measure
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between your partner and the floor is 0.55

Explanation:

Given:

Mass m = 59 Kg

Frictional force F_{s}  = 318.3 N

From the formula of frictional force,

 F_{s} = \mu_{s} mg

Where \mu _{s} = coefficient of static friction, g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Put the above values and find the coefficient of static friction.

318.3 = \mu_{s} \times 59 \times 9.8

\mu_{s} = 0.55

Therefore, the coefficient of static friction between your partner and the floor is 0.55
