Answer:

0.65812

Explanation:

m = Mass of suitcase = 16 kg

\theta = Incline angle = 40°

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

a = Acceleration of the block = 1.36 m/s²

f = Frictional force

The normal force is given by

N=mgcos\theta

In x direction

mgsin\theta-f=ma\\\Rightarrow f=mgsin\theta-ma\\\Rightarrow f=16\times 9.81\times sin40-16\times 1.36\\\Rightarrow f=79.13194\ N

Frictional force is given by

f=\mu N=\mu mgcos\theta\\\Rightarrow \mu=\dfrac{f}{mgcos\theta}\\\Rightarrow \mu=\dfrac{79.13194}{16\times 9.81\times cos40}\\\Rightarrow \mu=0.65812

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the suitcase and the ramp is 0.65812

A 10 µf capacitor is charged to 108 v and is then connected across a 328 ω resistor. what is the initial charge on the capacitor
valina [46]
The capacitance is defined as the maximum charge stored in a capacitor, Q, divided by the voltage applied, V:
C= \frac{Q}{V}

The capacitor is initially charged with the battery of 108 V, so the the initial charge on the capacitor can be found by re-arranging the previous formula:
Q=CV=(10 \mu F)(108 V)=1080 \mu C

.2, A car starting from rest has an acceleration of
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: 2.5 m/s and 6.25 m

Explanation:

u = 0

a = 0.5 m/s²

t = 5 s

v = u + at

=  0 + 0.5 × 5

= <u>2.5 m/s</u>

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 1/2 × 2.5 × 5

=<u> 6.25 m</u>

Every second, the Sun converts about 600 million tons of hydrogen into 596 million tons of helium. The remaining 4 million tons
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Converted to an amount of energy equal to 4 million tons times the speed of light squared. ejected into space in a solar wind.

Explanation:

The 4 million tons of mass is converted to the amount of energy that is equal to 4 million tons times the speed of light squared. This energy moves from the sun with the help of solar winds and received by the planets present in the solar system. This solar energy moves in the form of solar radiation because there is no medium for propagation so that's why we can say that the mass is converted into energy that moves in the form of radiation in discrete packets.

How effectiveness of a small force is increased when action area of force is<br> reduced?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

The force is proportional to the area, for if we increase the area but keep the number of molecules per cubic centimeter the same, we increase the number of collisions with the piston in the same proportion as the area was increased.

Explanation:

more area =more space = more free for molecules = less pressure = less force.
