A student of mass 65.4 kg, starting at rest, slides down a slide 21.2 m long, tilted at an angle of 20.1° with respect to the ho

rizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the student and the slide is 0.123, find the force of kinetic friction, the acceleration, and the speed she is traveling when she reaches the bottom of the slide.

Answer:

a. Ff = 74.03N

b. a = 2.23 m/s^2

c. v = 9.73 m/s

Explanation:

a. For an incline system, the force of kinetic friction is given by tte following formula:

F_f= \mu_k Ncos\theta=\mu_kMgcos\theta         (1)

Ff: friction force

μk: kinetic friction = 0.123

N: normal force

θ: angle of the incline = 20.1°

M: mass of the student = 65.4 kg

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (1):

F_f=(0.123)(65.4kg)(9.8m/s^2)cos(20.1\°)=74.03N

The kinetic friction force is 74.03N

b. The acceleration of the student is given by the Newton second law:

W-F_f=Mgsin\theta-F_f=Ma         (2)

You solve the previous equation for a:

a=\frac{Mgsin\theta-F_f}{M}\\\\a=\frac{(65.4kg)(9.8m/s^2)sin(20.1\°)-74.03N}{65.4kg}=2.23\frac{m}{s^2}

The acceleration of the student, in his trajectory is 2.23m/s^2

c. The speed of the student, at the bottom of the trajectory, can be calculated by taking into account that the net work is equal to the change in the kinetic energy:

W_n=\Delta K\\\\(W-F_f)d=\frac{1}{2}M(v^2-v_o^2)       (3)

v: final speed = ?

vo: initial speed  = 0 m/s

d: distance traveled by the student  = 21.2m

Then, you replace the values of the parameters in the equation (3) and solve for v:

((65.4kg)(9.8m/s^2)sin(20.1\°)-74.03N)(21.2m)=\frac{1}{2}(65.4kg)v^2\\\\v=9.73\frac{m}{s}

THe speed of the student at the bottom of the slide is 9.73 m/s

The change in momentum that occurs when a 1. 0 kg ball traveling at 4. 0 m/s strikes a wall and bounces back at 2. 0 m/s is.
Doss [256]

Answer:

The change is momentum is given by ∆p=p(inital) - p(final) =4-2=2 kg.m/s

Explanation:

momentum is the product of mass and velocity (speed)

So it's initial momentum would be:

p=mv=(1)(4)=4 kg.m/s

It's final momentum is given by:

p=mv=(1)(2)=2 kg.m/s

Consider projectile thrown horizontally at 50 m/s from height of 19.6 meters. The projectile will take ______________ time to hi
aleksley [76]

Answer:

C)The Same

Explanation:

Kinematics equation:

y=v_{oy}*t+1/2*g*t^2

for both cases the initial velocity in the axis Y is the same, equal a zero.

So the relation between the height ant temps is the same for both cases (the horizontal velocity does not play a role)

C)The Same

What do you guys know about emotional intelligence? And how is it used in the real world?
tester [92]
Emotional Intelligence is our own abilities of being able to identify and regulate our own emotions. This is used by individuals in the real world in order to regulate crying in front of everyone for example. Calming ourselves down by breathing is another good example of regulating emotion which plays into emotional intelligence.

Hope this helps mate :D

What is the magnitude of the force that is exerted on a 20 kg mass to give it an acceleration of 10.0
ANEK [815]

Answer:Mass of the body = 20 kg.

Final Velocity = 5.8 m/s.

Initial velocity = 0

Time = 3 seconds.  

Using the Formula,  

Acceleration = (v - u)/ t

= (5.8 - 0)/ 3

= 1.6 m /s².

Now, Using the Formula,  

Force = mass × acceleration

= 20 × 1.6

=
