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

Brut [27]
W=F*S

W - Work
F - Force
S - Distance (from latin word 'spatium)

so...
S= 5 (m)
W=60 (J)

W=F*S
F=W/S
F=60/5=12 J/m = 12 N (Newtons)

Mountains are _____.
just olya [345]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

c) created when tectonic plates converge

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • According to the plate tectonics theory, earthquakes, volcanoes and mountain building process occur due to the interaction of the rigid plates on the earth's crust.
  • <u>Mountains are as a result of volcanoes which are created by the movement of plate tectonics, which erupt and form mountains.</u> Formation of these mountains is as a result of compression of sediments caused by the collision of two convergent plate boundaries.
  • It's along the convergent plate boundaries that interactions occur which creates volcanic activities and mountain building.

What is the approximate radius of an equipotential spherical surface of 30 V about a point charge of +15 nC if the potential at
barxatty [35]

Answer:

V = k Q / R       potential at distance R for a charge Q

R = k Q / V

R = 9 * 10E9 * 15 * 10E-9 / 30 = 9 * 15 / 30 = 4.5 m

Note: Our equation says that if R if infinite then V must be zero.
