Answer:
400 N
Explanation:
By the law of friction,
is the maximum frictional force,
is the coefficient of friction and
is the reaction on the refrigerator. On a horizontal surface, the reaction is equal to the weight of the refrigerator.
While not moving, the fricition on the refrigerator is static friction. So,
This is the maximum frictional force and is more than the applied horizontal force of 400 N. Frictional force cannot be more than the applied force, else it would actually pull the refrigerator backwards (a strange thing, if it were to happen). It is equal to the extent of the applied force because the applied force is not enough to overcome the maximum.
Hence the frictional force is 400 N.
PS: Note that we do not use the coefficient of kinetic friction because applied force could not overcome the static friction.
Answer:
a. 11.29 s b. 94.72 m/s at -39.8° c. 821.57 m
Explanation:
a. Using y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt² where u = vertical component of velocity = v₀sinθ where v₀ = 88.3 m/s and θ = 34.5°, y₀ = + 60 m and y = water surface = 0 m, g = 9.8 m/s² and t = time it takes the cannon to reach the water surface.
So y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt²
y - y₀ = (v₀sinθ)t - 1/2gt²
substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
0 - 60 = (88.3 m/s × sin34.5°)t - 1/2 × 9.8 m/s²× t²
- 60 = 50t - 4.9t²
So, 4.9t² - 50t - 60 = 0
Using the quadratic formula to find t,
Since t cannot be negative, t = 11.29 s
b. We first need to find the impact vertical velocity component. Using
v = u - gt where u = initial vertical velocity component = v₀sinθ and t = 11.29 s and g = 9.8 m/s². So,
v = v₀sinθ - gt
= 88.3 m/s × sin34.5° - 9.8 m/s² × 11.29 s
= 50.01 m/s - 110.64 m/s
= -60.63 m/s
Since the horizontal velocity is constant u' = v₀cosθ = 88.3 m/s × cos34.5° = 72.77 m/s.
The impact velocity is thus the resultant of the horizontal velocity and final impact velocity. So, V = √(v² + u'²)
= √((-60.63 m/s)² + (72.77 m/s)²)
= √((3676 m²/s² + 5295.48 m²/s²)
= √(8971.48 m²/s²
= 94.72 m/s
The angle θ = tan⁻¹(v/u') = tan⁻¹(-60.63 m/s ÷ 72.77 m/s) = tan⁻¹(-0.8332) = -39.8°
So the impact velocity is 94.72 m/s at -39.8°
c. The horizontal distance out from the base of the cliff that the ball strikes the water is the range, R = u't = 72.77 m/s × 11.29 s = 821.57 m
