The angle of the wedge is 30°.

Answer:

5.88 ft/s

Explanation:

a) The block will slide down due to it's weight.

initial velocity u= 0

final velocity, v

acceleration, a = g sin 30° = 32 ft/s²× sin 30° = 16 ft/s²

Sliding displacement, s = 3ft

Use third equation of motion:

v^2-u^2 = 2as

substitute the values and solve for v

v^2-0 = 2\times 16 \times 3 =96 ft^2/s^2\\v = 9.8 ft/s

b) Use conservation of momentum:

Initial momentum of the system  = 0

final momentum = (15) ( 9.8)+ (25)(v')

v' = 5.88 ft/s

To push a 26.0 kg crate up a frictionless incline, angled at 25.0° to the horizontal, a worker exerts a force of 209 N parallel
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

(a) W = +397.1 J

(b) W = -204.6 J

(c) W = 0

(d) W= + 192.5 J

Explanation:

Work (W) is defined as the product of force (F) by the distance (d)the body travels due to this force. :

W= F*d Formula ( 1)

The forces that perform work on an object must be parallel to its displacement.

The forces perpendicular to the displacement of an object do not perform work on it.

The work is positive (W+) if the force has the same direction of movement of the object.  

The work is negative (W-) if the force has the opposite direction of the movement of the object.

Problem development

(a) Work performed by the worker's applied force on the box .

W= 209 N * 1.9 m = +397.1 J

(b) Work performed by the gravitational force on the crate

We calculate the weight component parallel to the displacement of the box:

We define the x-axis in the direction of the inclined plane ,25.0° to the horizontal.

We define the y-axis and in the direction of the plane perpendicular to the inclined plane.

W= m*g=26*9.8= 254.8N : total box weight

Wx= W*sen25.0°= 254.8*sen25.0°= 107.68 N

W = -Wx *d =107.68 N *1.9 m= -204.6 J

(c) Work performed by normal force (N) exerted by the incline on the crate

The force N is perpendicular to the displacement, then:

W=0

(d) Total work done on the crate

W = 397.1 J -204.6 J

W = 192.5 J

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION
Ipatiy [6.2K]

k = \dfrac{ (\dfrac{h}{ \lambda}  )^{2} }{2m}

k = (6.626×10-¹⁹/590 × 10-⁹ )^{2} /2 × 1.673 × 10-²⁷

k = (1.12 × 10-³⁰)^2/3.346×10-²⁷

k = 1.25 × 10-⁶⁰ /3.346×10-²⁷

k = 0

ldk why, my answer is coming this :(

A balloon filled with helium gas at 20°C occupies 4.91 L at 1.00 atm. The balloon is immersed in liquid nitrogen at -196°C, whil
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

0.25 L

Explanation:

P_1 = Initial pressure = 1 atm

T_1 = Initial Temperature = 20 °C

V_1 = Initial volume = 4.91 L

P_2 = Final pressure = 5.2 atm

T_2 = Final Temperature = -196 °C

V_2= Final volume

From ideal gas law we have

\dfrac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2V_2}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1T_2}{T_1P_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{1\times 4.91(273.15-196)}{(20+273.15)\times 5.2}\\\Rightarrow V_2=0.24849\ L\approx 0.25\ L

The pressure experienced by the balloon is 0.25 L
