A(n) 930 N crate is being pushed across a level floor by a force of 400 N at an angle of 20◦ above the horizontal. The coefficie

nt of kinetic friction between the crate and the floor is 0.20. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the box? Answer in units of m/s 2

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the box is 2.291\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}.

Explanation:

The free body diagram of the crate is included as attachment, whose equations of equilibrium are described below:

\Sigma F_{x} = P\cdot \cos 20^{\circ} - \mu_{k}\cdot N = \left(\frac{W}{g}\right)\cdot a

\Sigma F_{y} = P\cdot \sin 20^{\circ} + N - W = 0

From second equation of equilibrium we find an expression for the normal force and find the respective value:

N = W - P \cdot \sin 20^{\circ}

N = 930\,N - 400\cdot \sin 20^{\circ}\,N

N = 793.192\,N

Lastly, the acceleration experimented by the crate during pushing is cleared in the first equation of equilibrium and consequently calculated:

a = \frac{P\cdot \cos 20^{\circ}-\mu_{k}\cdot N}{\frac{W}{g} }

a = \frac{400\cdot \cos 20^{\circ}\,N-0.20\cdot (793.192\,N)}{\frac{930\,N}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} } }

a = 2.291\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The magnitude of the acceleration of the box is 2.291\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}.

What is the frequency of microwaves of wavelength 3 cm?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

10 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf.................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of microwave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................ Equation 2

Note: Microwave is an electromagnetic wave, and all electromagnetic wave have the same speed, which is 3×10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Constant; v = 3×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 3×10⁸/(0.03)

f = 10¹⁰ Hz

f = (10¹⁰/10⁹) GHz

f = 10 GHz

(1) A net force of 265 N accelerates a bike and rider at 2.30 m/s. What is the mass of the
kati45 [8]

Answer: 115.2kg

Explanation:

Net force = 265 N

Acceleration of bike & rider = 2.30m/s2 (The SI unit of acceleration is m/s2)

Mass of the bike and rider together = ?

Since force is the product of the mass of an object and the acceleration by which it moves, Force = Mass x Acceleration

265N = Mass x 2.30m/s2

Mass = (265N/2.30m/s2)

Mass = 115.2 kg

Thus, the Mass of the bike and rider together is 115.2kg
