A hockey puck is at rest on a flat surface. Then one end of the surface is lifted gradually, forming an inclined plane of increa

sing slope. By measuring the angle of the slope at which the puck begins to slide, what quantity can be calculated?
the coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the surface

the mass of the puck

the volume of the puck

the coefficient of static friction between the puck and the surface

The coefficient of static friction between the puck and the surface.

In fact, that coefficient describes exactly how "hard" it is to cause the puck to start moving, if it starts from an idle condition.

Answer:

the coefficient of static friction between the puck and the surface

Explanation:

As per the FBD we can say that as we increase the angle of the inclination the component of force of gravity will counterbalance the friction force

At the condition of just equilibrium when it is just begin to slide then in that case we can say

$F_f = mg sin\theta$

so here for finding frictional force maximum value we can say

$F_f = \mu F_n$

here for finding Normal force we can write force balance normal to the inclined plane

$F_n = mgcos\theta$

now from above equations

$\mu (mgcos\theta) = mg sin\theta$

$\mu = tan\theta$

so angle depends on the coefficient of static friction

A 1500 kg elevator, suspended by a single cable with tension 16.0 kN, is measured to be moving upward at 1.2 m/s. Air resistance

kirill115 [55]

Tension in the Cable is 0.87 m/s6^2, Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m is 1.6*10^5 N, Work done by gravity is 1.47 * 10^3 N, Elevator Kinetic Energy is 13897.5J and Elevator Speed after rising to 10m is 4.312 m/s.

Tension is a pulling force that operates in one dimension along the cables' axes in the opposite direction from the direction of the applied force. The combined weight of the elevator box and the passenger riding inside it, in the case of an elevator, provides the pulling force in the cables is called Tension.

A moving object or particle's kinetic energy, which depends on both mass and speed, is one of its characteristics. The type of motion can be vibration, translation, rotation around an axis, or any combination of these. Kinetic energy is a type of energy that an item or particle possesses as a result of motion.

We know that,

Tension in the Cable

T = m(g+a) = g+a = T/m = 16 * 103 / 1500 = 10.67 m/s2

a = 10.67 - 9.8 = 0.87 m/s6^2

Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m.

U^2 = u^2 +2as

= 1.22 +2*0.87*10

=1.6*10^5 N

Work done by gravity = mg * 10 = 14700 * 10 = 1.47 * 10^3 N

Elevator Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2*1500*18.53 = 13897.5J

Elevator Speed after rising to 10m ,

U^2 = u^2 +2as = 1.2 +2*0.87*10 = 18.6

U =(18.6)^1/2=4.312 m/s

The 5-kg block A has an initial speed of 5 m/s as it slides down the smooth ramp, after which it collides with the stationary bl

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The coupled velocity of both the blocks is 1.92 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block A, $m_1=5\ kg$

Initial speed of block A, $u_1=5\ m/s$

Mass of block B, $m_2=8\ kg$

Initial speed of block B, $u_2=0$

It is mentioned that if the two blocks couple together after collision. We need to find the common velocity immediately after collision. We know that due to coupling, it becomes the case of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum. Let V is the coupled velocity of both the blocks. So,

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{5\times 5+0}{(5+8)}\\\\V=1.92\ m/s$

So, the coupled velocity of both the blocks is 1.92 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Similarities and differences between high pitch and low pitch

umka2103 [35]

You can hear a difference between these two sounds. That is because their pitch isdifferent. Pitch depends on the frequency of a sound wave. ... High sounds have highfrequencies and low sounds have lowfrequencies.
