Answer:

0.41

Explanation:

given,

mass of the car, m = 2290 Kg

initial speed = 10.5 m/s

mass of another car, M = 2780 Kg

distance moved = 2.80 m

coefficient of friction = ?

conservation of energy

m u = (M + m) V

2290 x 10.5 = (2290 + 2780) V

V = 4.74 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

4.74² = 2 x a x 2.8

a = 4.02 m/s²

now using equation

a = μ g

4.02 = μ x 9.8

μ = 0.41

A rope is tied to a box and used to pull the box 2.3 m along a horizontal floor. The rope makes an angle of 30∘ with the horizon
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

A) The work done by gravity is zero because displacement and the gravitational force are perpendicular to each other.

W= FS cosθ

θ= 90 ⇒cos90 = 0 ⇒W= 0

B) work done by tension

W= Tcosθ×S= 5cos30×2.30= 10J

C) Work done by friction force

W= f×s=1×2.30= 2.30 J

D) Work done by normal force is Zero because the displacement and the normal force are perpendicular to each other.

E) The net work done= Work done by tension in the rope - frictional work

=10-2.30= 7.7 J

Why does cold weather feel colder inside?
schepotkina [342]
One reason is that when you have been out in the cold, your hands feet and exposed features of your face will take time to recover as the blood circulation improves and supplied warm blood to capillaries. So the relatively warm room you enter will not immediately feel warm until the blood has regained its normal circulation. Other factors are that windows are cooled from the outside and condensation forms on the inside because of moisture in the air. For this condensation to evaporate requires heat, which will be extracted from the room and the air near the windows will be cooled. The cold air will descend and form a draught at floor level and this will tend to make the room cooler.

Water of density 1000 kg/m3 falls without splashing at a rate of 0.373 L/s from a height of 40.5 m into a 0.64 kg bucket on a sc
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

       F_scale = 20.18 N

Explanation:

The scale reading corresponds to two factors, the first the weight of the water in the container and the second the force of the liquid that is falling at the moment of reading.

* Let's find the amount of liquid in the container for a time of t = 2.93 s

Let's use a direct proportion rule. If 0.373 l falls in one second at t = 2.93 s, how many liters are there

        V_{water} = 2.93 s (0.373 l / 1s) = 1.09 l

        V_{water} = 1.09 10⁻³ m³

the amount of water is

       ρ = m / V

       m = ρ V

       m = 1000 1.09 10⁻³

       m = 1.09 kg

so the weight of the liquid in the container for this time is

       W = mg

       W = 1.09 9.8

       W = 10.68 N

* Let's look for the force of the falling jet

Let's use Bernoulli's equation, where the subscript 1 is for the container and the subscript 2 is for the water at a height h

        P₁ + 1/2 ρ g v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + 1/2  ρ g v₂² + ρ g y₂

In this case, the water falls freely, so the external pressure is atmospheric.

         P₂ = P_{atm}

since they indicate that the water falls, we assume that its initial velocity is zero v₂ = 0

let's use kinematics to find the speed of a drop when it reaches the container y = 0

         v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

         v = \sqrt{0 -2 g ( 0-y_o)}

let's calculate

         v = √(2 9.8 40.5)

         v = 28.17 m / s

this is the speed in the container v₁ = 28.17 m / s

the height from where it falls is y₂ = 40.5 and reaches the container y₁ = 0

we substitute in Bernoulli's equation

         P₁ +1/2 ρ g v₁² + 0 = P_{atm} + 0 + ρ g y₂

         P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂

         P₁ = P_{atm} + ρ g y₂ - ½ ρ g v₁²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 1000 9.8 40.5 - ½ 1000 28.17²

         P₁ = 1 10⁵ + 3.97 10⁵ - 3.69 10⁵

         P₁ = 1.28 10⁵ Pa

The definition of Pressure is

         P = F / A

         F = P A

We must suppose a time to carry out the reading suppose an average time of the modern equipment t = 0.1 s, in this time how much is now arriving

          m₂ = 0.373 0.2 = 0.0746 l = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³

the volume is V = A l

if the length of l = 1 m

A = 0.0746 10⁻³ m³ = 7.45 10⁻⁵ m²

the force of this jet is

            F = P A

            F = 1.28 10⁵  7.46 10⁻⁵

            F = 9.5 N

with these data let's use the equilibrium equation

           F_ scale -W - F = 0

           F_scale = W + F

           F_scale = 10.682 + 9.5

           F_scale = 20.18 N

A device for acclimating military pilots to the high accelerations they must experience consists of a horizontal beam that rotat
Natali [406]

centripetal acceleration is given by formula

a_c = \omega^2*R

given that

a_c = 34.1 m/s^2

R  =  5.91 m

now we have

\omega^2 R = 34.1

\omega^2 * 5.91 = 34.1

\omega^2 = 5.77

\omega = 2.4 rad/s

so the ratationa frequency is given by

\omega = 2 \pi f

2.4 = 2 \pi f

f = \frac{2.4}{2\pi}

f = 0.38 Hz
