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

Describe two experiments to determine the speed of propagation of a transverse wave on a rope. You have the following tools to u
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

#See solution for details.

Explanation:

1.

Tools:stopwatch, \ meter \ stick, \ mass \ measuring \ scale , \ force \ measuring  \ device.

Experiment \ 1:Calculate the speed of the wave using the time,t it takes to travel along the rope. Rope's length,L is measured using the meter stick.

-Attach one end of rope to a wall or post, shake from the unfixed end to generate a pulse. Measure the the time it takes for the pulse to reach the wall once it starts traveling using the stopwatch.

-Speed of the pulse can then be obtained as:

v=\frac{L}{t}

Experiment \ 2: Apply force of known value to the rope then use the following relation equation to find the speed of a pulse that travels on the rope.

v=\sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu}}\ ,\mu=\frac{m}{L}

-Use the measuring stick and measuring scale to determine L,m values of the rope then obtain \mu.

-Use the force measuring constant to determine F. These values can the be substituted in Experiment \ 1 to obtain v.

suppose that you look into a photometer's eyepiece and the fluorescent disks appear to be equal in intensity. If the distance be
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Use the Inverse square law, Intensity (I) of a light is inversely proportional to the square of the distance(d).

I=1/(d*d)

Let Intensity for lamp 1 is L1 distance be D1 so on, L2 D2 for Intensity for lamp 2 and its distance.

L1/L2=(D2*D2)/(D1*D1)

L1/15=(200*200)/(400*400)
L1=15*0.25
L1=3.75 <span>candela</span>

Which properties do metalloids share with metals?
Inga [223]
Metals are not brittle so it can’t be the first one or the third one, both metalloids and metals are shiny so it can’t be the second one. Therefore, it would be the last one because both metalloids and metals are shiny and both are solids at room temperature because it is not a high enough melting point.

ANSWER: Both are shiny and are solid at room temperature.

Sophie throws a tennis ball down from a height of 1.5 m at an angle of 450 with respect to vertical. She drops another tennis ba
Katena32 [7]

Given that,

Height =1.5 m

Angle = 45°

We need to find the greater speed of the ball

Using conservation of energy

P.E_{i}+K.E_{f}=P.E_{f}+K.E_{f}

mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{i}^2=mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2

Here, initial velocity and final potential energy is zero.

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{f}^2

Put the value into the formula

9.8\times1.5=\dfrac{1}{2}v_{f}^2

v_{f}^2=2\times9.8\times1.5

v_{f}=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times1.5}

v_{f}=5.42\ m/s

Hence, the greater speed of the ball is 5.42 m/s.
