Answer:

fr = 65.46 N , a = 8.74 m / s² and vf = 19.25 m / s

Explanation:

We write a reference system with an axis parallel to the slide and gold perpendicular axis, in this system we decompose the weight

sin 21.2 = Wx / W

cos21.2 = Wy / W

Wx = W sin21.2

Wy = W cos 21.2

We form Newton's equations

X axis

Wx -fr = m a

Y Axis

N- Wy = 0

N = Wy

fr = μ N

fr = μ (W cos 21.2)

fr = 0.113 63.4 9.8 cos 21.2

fr = 65.46 N

We replace and calculate the acceleration

W sin 21.2 - μ W cos 21.2 = m a

a = g (sin21.2 - μ cos 21.2)

a = 9.8 (without 21.2 - 0.113 cos 21.2)

a = 8.74 m / s²

This acceleration is along the slope of the slide, so we can calculate the distance

d = 21.2 m

vf² = v₀² + 2 a d

vf² = 0 + 2 a d

vf = √(2 8.74 21.2)

vf = √ (370,576)

vf = 19.25 m / s

Usain Bolt's world-record 100 m sprint on August 16, 2009, has been analyzed in detail. At the start of the race, the 94.0 kg Bo

ZanzabumX [31]

a) 893 N

b) 8.5 m/s

c) 3816 W

d) 69780 J

e) 8030 W

Explanation:

a)

The net force acting on Bolt during the acceleration phase can be written using Newton's second law of motion:

$F_{net}=ma$

where

m is Bolt's mass

a is the acceleration

In the first 0.890 s of motion, we have

m = 94.0 kg (Bolt's mass)

$a=9.50 m/s^2$ (acceleration)

So, the net force is

$F_{net}=(94.0)(9.50)=893 N$

And according to Newton's third law of motion, this force is equivalent to the force exerted by Bolt on the ground (because they form an action-reaction pair).

b)

Since Bolt's motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can find his final speed by using the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time

In the first phase of Bolt's race we have:

u = 0 m/s (he starts from rest)

$a=9.50 m/s^2$ (acceleration)

t = 0.890 s (duration of the first phase)

Solving for v,

$v=0+(9.50)(0.890)=8.5 m/s$

c)

First of all, we can calculate the work done by Bolt to accelerate to a speed of

v = 8.5 m/s

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy, so

$W=K_f - K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv^2-0$

where

m = 94.0 kg is Bolt's mass

v = 8.5 m/s is Bolt's final speed after the first phase

$K_i = 0 J$ is the initial kinetic energy

So the work done is

$W=\frac{1}{2}(94.0)(8.5)^2=3396 J$

The power expended is given by

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

t = 0.890 s is the time elapsed

Substituting,

$P=\frac{3396}{0.890}=3816 W$

d)

First of all, we need to find what is the average force exerted by Bolt during the remaining 8.69 s of motion.

In the first 0.890 s, the force exerted was

$F_1=893 N$

We know that the average force for the whole race is

$F_{avg}=820 N$

Which can be rewritten as

$F_{avg}=\frac{0.890 F_1 + 8.69 F_2}{0.890+8.69}$

And solving for $F_2$ , we find the average force exerted by Bolt on the ground during the second phase:

$F_{avg}=\frac{0.890 F_1 + 8.69 F_2}{0.890+8.69}\\F_2=\frac{(0.890+8.69)F_{avg}-0.890F_1}{8.69}=812.5 N$

The net force exerted by Bolt during the second phase can be written as

$F_{net}=F_2-D$ (1)

where D is the air drag.

The net force can also be rewritten as

$F_{net}=ma$

where

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$ is the acceleration in the second phase, with

u = 8.5 m/s is the initial speed

v = 12.4 m/s is the final speed

t = 8.69 t is the time elapsed

Substituting,

$a=\frac{12.4-8.5}{8.69}=0.45 m/s^2$

So we can now find the average drag force from (1):

$D=F_2-F_{net}=F_2-ma=812.5 - (94.0)(0.45)=770.2 N$

So the increase in Bolt's internal energy is just equal to the work done by the drag force, so:

$\Delta E=W=Ds$

where

d is Bolt's displacement in the second part, which can be found by using suvat equation:

$s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{12.4^2-8.5^2}{2(0.45)}=90.6 m$

And so,

$\Delta E=Ds=(770.2)(90.6)=69780 J$

e)

The power that Bolt must expend just to voercome the drag force is given by

$P=\frac{\Delta E}{t}$

where

$\Delta E$ is the increase in internal energy due to the air drag

t is the time elapsed

Here we have:

$\Delta E=69780 J$

t = 8.69 s is the time elapsed

Substituting,

$P=\frac{69780}{8.69}=8030 W$

And we see that it is about twice larger than the power calculated in part c.

When a wire moves through a magnetic field, an electric current is produced in the wire. Why does this phenomenon occur?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

<h2>It occurs whenever a magnetic field and an electric conductor move relative to one another so the conductor crosses lines of force in the magnetic field. </h2>

Explanation:

<h3>The current produced by electromagnetic induction is greater when the magnet or coil moves faster, the coil has more turns, or the magnet is stronger.</h3>

Fter carrying out some tests at a local stream, you discover that the pH in the stream is extremely low. Based on this, you shou

n200080 [17]

Answer:

D) not swim in or drink the water from the stream

Explanation:

Low pH means the water is acidic which is harmful to your skin as it can cause burns and irritations. So any means of contacting with water is not healthy. The damage to the skin happens as in acidic water it has more H+ than in the neutral water and the extra H+ ions can ionize the atoms which are combined to form different compounds in the skin when in contact.
