The acceleration of the block is -0.98 m/s^2

Explanation:

The expression for the force of friction acting on the block is (assuming the surface is horizontal and flat):

F_f = -\mu mg

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the block

g is the acceleration of gravity

and where the negative sign means the direction of the force is opposite to that of the motion of the block

If this is the only force acting on the object, then this is also the resultant force, so we can rewrite Newton's second law as:

F=ma\\-\mu mg = ma

where

a is the acceleration of the block

Re-arranging the equation,

a=-\mu g

And so this is the expression for the acceleration of the block acted upon the force of friction.

In this problem, we have:

\mu=0.1

g=9.8 m/s^2

Solving,

a=-(0.1)(9.8)=-0.98 m/s^2

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

μs = 0.75

μk = 0.58

Explanation:

From a force diagram:

m*g*sin \theta - Ff=m*a     (1)

N-m*g*cos \theta = 0         (2)

When it starts slipping, friction force is the maximum and acceleration is 0. Replacing these conditions on (1):

m*g*sin \theta - \mu*m*g*cos \theta=0   Solving for μs:

\mu=tan \theta

μs = tan 36.7° = 0.75

When it moves at constant speed, friction force is kinetic friction and acceleration is 0. With these conditions the coefficient is:

μk = tan 30.1° = 0.58

A small asteroid with a mass of 1500 kg moves near the earth. At a particular instant the asteroid’s velocity is ⟨3.5 × 104, −1.
zalisa [80]

Answer:

P_{f} =(5.7 x 10^{7 i - 2.24 x 10^{7 j) kgm/s

Explanation:

Due to earths gravity, force on asteroid is given by:

F= \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2} }{r^{2} } r^

Plugging in the values, we have

F= [(6.67x10^{-11})(1500)(5.97 x 10^{24})(8x10^{6}i + 9x10^{6 j)] / ((8x10^{6})² + (9x10^{6 )²)^{1.5}

F= 2736 i^ + 3078 j^

In order find the final momentum of the Asteroid, apply impulse momentum theorem

P_{f} = P_{i + FΔt

P_{f} = 1500(3.5 x 10^{4 i - 1.8x10^{4 j) + (2736i + 3078j)(1.5x10^{3)

P_{f} =(5.7 x 10^{7  i- 2.24 x 10^{7 j)kgm/s

The surface charge density on an infinite charged plane is −1.70 x 10^−6 C/m^2 . A proton is shot straight away from the plane a
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Acceleration of proton will be -9.197\times 10^{12}m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given surface charge density of an infinite charged plate \sigma = -1.70\times 10^{-6}C/m^2

Electric field due to infinite sheet charge is given by E=\frac{\sigma }{2\epsilon _0}=\frac{-1.7\times 10^{-6}}{2\times 8.85\times10^{-12}}=-0.096\times 10^6=-9.6\times 10^4N/C

Charge in proton is given by e=1.6\times 10^{-19}C

So force on proton F=qE=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times -9.6\times 10^4=-15.36\times 10^{-15}N

Mass of proton m=1.67\times 10^{-27}kg

According to newtons second law force F = mass × acceleration

So -15.36\times10^{-15}=1.67\times 10^{-27}a

a=-9.197\times 10^{12}m/sec^2
