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

Answer:

Energy required = 3169.34 Joules.

Explanation:

The quantity of energy (Q) required can be determined by;

Q = mcΔθ

Where: m is the mass, c is the specific heat and Δθ is the change in temperature.

But, m = 96.7 kg, c = 0.874 J/(kg^{o} C), T_{2} = 69.2^{o} and T_{1} = 31.7^{o}.

So that,

Q = mc(T_{2} - T_{1})

   = 96.7 x 0.874 x (69.2^{o} - 31.7^{o})

  = 96.7 x 0.874 x 37.5

  = 3169.3425

Q = 3169.34

   = 3.2 KJ

The amount of energy required is 3169.34 Joules.

Two parallel wires are separated by 5.60 cm, each carrying 2.65 A of current in the same direction. (a) What is the magnitude of
ololo11 [35]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The separation between two parallel wires, r = 5.6 cm = 0.056 m

Current in both the wires is 2.65 A

(a) We need to find the magnitude of the force per unit length between the wires. It can be given by :

\dfrac{F}{l}=\dfrac{\mu_o I_1I_2}{2\pi r}\\\\\dfrac{F}{l}=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 2.65\times 2.65}{2\pi \times 0.056}\\\\\dfrac{F}{l}=2.5\times 10^{-5}\ N/m

(b) As the current is in same direction, the wires will attract each other.
