Answer: Hi! The answer to this problem is 0km.

Ok, the definition of displacement is the change in position.

So if in this 8 hours i first travel 40 km in one direction, and the i traveled -40km in the same direction i would be on the same place, so the total displacement would be 0 km.

A train is traveling at a speed of 80\,\dfrac{\text{km}}{\text{h}}80 h km ​ 80, start fraction, start text, k, m, end text, divi
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The distance the train travels before coming to a (complete) stop = 40/81 km which is approximately 493.83 meters

Explanation:

The initial speed of the train u = 80 km/h = 22 2/9 m/s = 22.\bar 2 m/s

The magnitude of the constant acceleration with which the train slows, a = 0.5 m/s²

Therefore, we have the following suitable kinematic equation of motion;

v² = u² - 2 × a × s

Where;

v = The final velocity = 0 (The train comes to a stop)

s = The distance the train travels before coming to a stop

Substituting the  values gives;

0² = 22.\bar 2² - 2 × 0.5 × s

2 × 0.5 × s = 22.\bar 2²

s = 22.\bar 2²/1 = 493 67/81 m = 40/81 km

The distance the train travels before coming to a (complete) stop = 40/81 km ≈ 493.83 m.

A block is at rest on a plank whose angle can be varied. The angle is gradually increased from 0 deg. At 31.8°, the block starts
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

\mu_s = 0.62

\mu_k = 0.415

The motion of the block is downwards with acceleration 1.7 m/s^2.

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the acceleration using the kinematics equations. We will denote the direction along the incline as x-direction.

x - x_0 = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2\\3.4 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}a(2)^2\\a = 1.7~m/s^2

Newton’s Second Law can be used to find the net force applied on the block in the -x-direction.

F = ma\\F = 1.7m

Now, let’s investigate the free-body diagram of the block.

Along the x-direction, there are two forces: The x-component of the block’s weight and the kinetic friction force. Therefore,

F = mg\sin(\theta) - \mu_k mg\cos(\theta)\\1.7m = mg\sin(31.8) - \mu_k mg\cos(31.8)\\1.7 = (9.8)\sin(\theta) - mu_k(9.8)\cos(\theta)\\mu_k = 0.415

As for the static friction, we will consider the angle 31.8, but just before the block starts the move.

mg\sin(31.8) = \mu_s mg\cos(31.8)\\\mu_s = tan(31.8) = 0.62
