Answer:

(a) Ff = 0.128 N

(b μk = 0.1135

Explanation:

kinematic analysis

Because the hockey puck  moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formulas:

vf=v₀+a*t Formula (1)

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (2)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s

Calculation of the acceleration of the  hockey puck

We apply the Formula (1)

vf=v₀+a*t      v₀=5.8 m/s ,  vf=0

0=5.8+a*t

-5.8 = a*t

a= -5.8/t   Equation (1)

We replace a= -5.8/t in the Formula (2)

d= v₀*t+ (1/2)*a*t²   ,  d=15.1 m ,  v₀=5.8 m/s

15.1 = 5.8*t+ (1/2)*(-5.8/t)*t²  

15.1= 5.8*t-2.9*t

15.1= 2.9*t

t = 15.1 / 2.9

t= 5.2 s

We replace t= 5.2 s in the equation (1)

a= -5.8/5.2

a= -1.115 m/s²

(a) Calculation of the  frictional force (Ff)

We apply Newton's second law

∑F = m*a    Formula (3)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

Look at the free body diagram of the  hockey puck in the attached graphic

∑Fx = m*a     m= 115g * 10⁻³ Kg/g = 0.115g    ,  a= -1.12 m/s²

-Ff = 0.115*(-1.115)  We multiply by (-1 ) on both sides of the equation

Ff = 0.128 N

(b) Calculation of the coefficient of friction (μk)

N: Normal Force (N)

W=m*g= 0.115*9.8= 1.127 N : hockey puck  Weight

g: acceleration due to gravity =9.8 m/s²

∑Fy = 0

N-W=0

N = W

N =  1.127 N

μk = Ff/N

μk = 0.128/1.127

μk = 0.1135

A 65.8-kg person throws a 0.0413 kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 32.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 58.7 kg, c
guapka [62]

Answer:

v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}

v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The statement is described physically by means of the Principle of Momentum Conservation. Let assume that first person moves in the positive direction:

First Person

(65.8\,kg)\cdot (2.51\,\frac{m}{s}) = (65.8\,kg)\cdot v_{1} + (0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s} )

Second Person

(0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s})+(58.7\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s})=(0.0413\,kg+58.7\,kg)\cdot v_{2}

The final velocities of the two people after the snowball is exchanged is:

v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}

v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}

Jobisdone [24]
Harnessing the sun's energy to produce heat or electricity is : A. Non - Polluting

This energy generating method will cause no dangerous emission for environment (unlike the one that came from fossil fuel), but the energy that produced from the sun tend to be more expensive so it's still not widely used

Vlad [161]

Answer:

769,048.28Joules

Explanation:

A parachutist of mass 56.0 kg jumps out of a balloon at a height of 1400 m and lands on the ground with a speed of 5.10 m/s. How much energy was lost to air friction during this bump

The energy lost due to friction is expressed using the formula;

Energy lost  = Potential Energy + Kinetic Energy

Energy lost  = mgh + 1/2mv²

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

v is the speed

Substitute the given values into the formula;

Energy lost  = 56(9.8)(1400) + 1/2(56)(5.10)²

Energy lost  = 768,320 + 728.28

Energy lost  = 769,048.28Joules

<em>Hence the amount of energy that was lost to air friction during this jump is 769,048.28Joules</em>
