Turn off lights when leaving rooms.

Unplug unused appliances. Even when powered off these appliances use electricity.

Replace regular light bulbs with energy saving bulbs.

-- Turn off the lights when you leave a room.

-- Use "energy efficient" appliances and low-energy lights.

-- Go to bed when the sun sets & get up when it rises.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

A.Mass,m=12 kg

$\theta=53^{\circ}$

$\mu_k=0.16$

Speed,v=1.5m/s

Net force in x direction must be zero

$F_{net}=0$

$Fsin\theta-f=0$

$Fsin\theta=f$

Net force in y direction

$N-mg-Fcos\theta=0$

$N=mg+Fcos\theta$

$f=\mu_kN=\mu_k(mg+Fcos\theta)$

$Fsin\theta=\mu_k(mg+Fcos\theta)$

$Fsin\theta=\mu_kmg+\mu_kFcos\theta$

$Fsin\theta-\mu_kFcos\theta=\mu_kmg$

$F(sin\theta-\mu_kcos\theta)=\mu_kmg$

$F=\frac{\mu_kmg}{sin\theta-\mu_kcos\theta}$

Power,P=Fv

$P=\frac{\mu_kmg}{sin\theta-\mu_kcos\theta}v$

Where $g=9.8m/s^2$

B.Substitute the values

$P=\frac{0.16\times 12\times 9.8}{sin53-0.16cos53}\times 1.5$

$P=40.17W$

A 1000.kg car moving at north at 100. km/hr brakes to a stop in 50. m within a uniform acceleration. what are magnitude and dire

Marianna [84]

Answer:

Force=7.71KN in the opposite direction

Explanation:

Given the mass of the car(M)=1000Kg

The initial speed of the car(u)=100km/hr

we know that 1km/hr=5/18 m/sec

100km/hr=100*5/18 m/sec=27.77m/sec

the distance travelled before it stops (s)=50m

let the acceleration of the car be a

The final velocity of the car is 0.

we know that $v^{2}-u^{2}=2as$

$0^{2}-27.77^{2}=2(-a)(50)$

a=7.712m/ $sec^{2}$

We know that F=Ma

F=1000* 7.712=7712N=7.71KN

ira [324]

The Period of the resulting shm will be T=39.7

Explanation:

Given data

m=3kg

d=.06m

k=1200 N/m

Θ=3 °

T=?

we have the formulas,

I = (1/6)Md2

F = ma

F = -kx = -(mω2x)

k = mω2 τ = -d(FgsinΘ)

T=2 x 3.14/ √(m/k)

Solution for the given problem would be,

F=-Kx (where x= dsin Θ)

F=-k dsin Θ

F=-(1200)(.06)sin(3 °)

F=-10.16N

By newton's second law.

F = ma

a= F/m

a=(-10.16N)/3

a=3.38

using the k=mω value

k=mω

ω=k/m

ω=1200/3

ω=400

Using F = -kx value

x = F/-k

x=(-10.16)/1200

x=0.00847m

Restoring the torque value

τ = -dmgsinΘ where( τ = Iα so.).. Iα = -dmgsinΘ α = -(.06)(4)α =

α =(.06)(4)(9.81)sin(4°)

α=-1.781

Rotational to linear form

a = αr

r = .1131 m

a=-1.781 x .1131 m

a=-0.2015233664

Time Period

T=2 x 3.14/ √(m/k)

T=6.28/√(3/1200)

T=6.28/0.158

T=39.7
