g Larry , Moe, and Curly are pushing on a 25 kg crate. The crate is sitting on a horizontal floor, and the coefficient of kineti

c friction between the floor and the crate is 0.25. Larry pushes to the right with a force of 400 N. Moe pushes to the left with a force of 250 N. Curly pushes straight downward on the crate with a force of 150 N. What is the acceleration of the crate

Answer:2.05 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Mass of crate is m=25\ kg

coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.25

Larry Pushes with a force of F_L=400\ N to the right

Moe pushes with a force of F_m=250\ N to the left

Curly Pushes downward with a force of F_c=150\ N

Net Normal reaction on the ground is

N=mg+F_c

N=25\times 9.8+150=395\ N

Friction force is given by f=\mu _k\cdot N

f=0.25\times 395

f=98.75\ N

Friction Force always opposes the motion

Net Horizontal force on the  box is

F_{net}=400-250-98.75

F_{net}=51.25\ N

acceleration is given by

a=\frac{F_{net}}{m}

a=\frac{51.25}{25}

a=2.05\ m/s^2

A small boat coasts at constant speed under a bridge. A heavy sack of sand is dropped from the bridge onto the boat. The speed o
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

d. decreases

Explanation:

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that the sum of momenta before the collision is equal to the sum of momenta after the collision. The bag has no momentum as it falls onto the boat because its velocity is zero in the horizontal direction. But after it hits the boat, it's momentum increases while the momentum of the system remains the same. That means a component of the system must decrease somewhere else. And that component is the velocity, not the mass, of the boat.

A child looks at his reflection in a spherical Christmas tree ornament 8.0 cm in diameter in season that the image of his face i
malfutka [58]

From the information given,

diameter of ornament = 8

radius = diameter/2 = 8/2

radius of curvature, r = 4

Recall,

focal length, f = radius of curvature/2 = 4/2

f = 2

Recall,

magnification = image d

PLEASE ANSWER FAST In which of the following situations is the greatest amount of work accomplished? 1. A boy lifts a 2-newton b
GuDViN [60]

Explanation:

Work done is given by the product of force and displacement.

Case 1,

1. A boy lifts a 2-newton box 0.8 meters.

W = 2 N × 0.8 m = 1.6 J

2. A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters.

W = 5 N × 0.8 m = 4 J

3. A boy lifts a 8-newton box 0.2 meters.

W = 8 N × 0.2 m = 1.6 J

4. A boy lifts a 10-newton box 0.2 meters.

W = 10 N × 0.2 m = 2 J

Out of the four options, in option (2) ''A boy lifts a 5-newton box 0.8 meters'', the work done is 4 J. Hence, the greatest work done is 4 J.
