A rope is used to pull a 4.36 kg block at constant speed 4.33 m along a horizontal floor. The force on the block from the rope i

s 7.97 N and directed 26.2° above the horizontal. What are (a) the work done by the rope's force, (b) the increase in thermal energy of the block-floor system, and (c) the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and floor?

Answer:

Explanation:

The horizontal component of force applied = 7.97 cos 26.2 = 7.15 N.

Vertical component in upward direction = 7.97 sin 26.2 = 3.52 N.

Since the body is moving with uniform velocity, friction force will equalize the external horizontal component = 7.15 N.

So frictional force  = 7.15 N.

a) Work done by rope force per second = force in horizontal direction x displacement per second = 7.15 x 4.33 = 30.95 J

b) Increase in thermal energy per second will be due to negative work done by frictional force = work done by external force = 30.95 J.

c) Normal force acting downwards = weight - vertical component of external force  = 4.36 x 9.8 - 3.52 = 39.21 N

coefficient of friction = friction force / normal force = 7.15 / 39.21 = 0.18

What component of a longitudinal sound wave is analogous to a trough of a transverse wave?
anzhelika [568]

Explanation:

There are two components of a longitudinal sound wave which are compression and rarefaction. Similarly, there are two components of the transverse wave, the crest, and trough.

The crest of a wave is defined as the part that has a maximum value of displacement while the trough is defined as the part which corresponds to minimum displacement.

While compression is that space where the particles are close together while the rarefaction is that space where the particles are far apart from each other.

So, the refraction or the rarefied part of a longitudinal sound wave is analogous to a trough of a transverse wave.

If a proton were released from rest at the sphere's surface, what would be its speed far from the sphere?
balu736 [363]

Let the sphere is having charge Q and radius R

Now if the proton is released from rest

By energy conservation we can say

U = K

\frac{kQe}{R} = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

\frac{2kQe}{mR} = v^2

now take square root of both sides

v =\sqrt{\frac{2kQe}{mR}}

so the proton will move by above speed and

here Q = charge on the sphere

R = radius of sphere

k = 9 * 10^9

A 0.0450-kg golf ball initially at rest is given a speed of 25.2 m/s when a club strikes. part a part complete if the club and b
Ksenya-84 [330]
We are given information:
m = 0.0450 kg
Δv = 25.2 m/s
Δt = 1.95 ms = 0.00195s

To find force we use formula:
F = m * a

a is acceleration. To find it we use formula:
a = Δv / Δt 
a = 25.2 / 0.00195
a = 12923.1 m/s^2

Now we can find force:
F = 0.0450 * 12923.1
F = 581.5 N 


To check the effect of the ball's weight on this movement we need to calculate it and then compare it to this force.
W = m * g
W = 0.0450 * 9.81
W = 0.44145 N 

We can see that weight is much smaller than the applied force so it's influence in negligible.
