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

Answer:

44.6 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are four forces on the block:

Weight force mg pulling down,

Normal force N pushing up,

Friction force Nμ pushing left,

and applied force F pulling right 30° above horizontal.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N + F sin 30° − mg = 0

N = mg − F sin 30°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F cos 30° − Nμ = 0

F cos 30° = Nμ

N = F cos 30° / μ

Substitute:

mg − F sin 30° = F cos 30° / μ

mg = F sin 30° + (F cos 30° / μ)

Plug in values:

mg = 20 N sin 30° + (20 N cos 30° / 0.5)

mg = 44.6 N

Which describes the relationship between photon energy and the color of light?
Andrew [12]
Photon energy is directly proportional to the frequency of electromagnetic radiation.
(That would also mean that it's inversely proportional to the wavelength.)

So the photon energy increases as you scan the chart of visible colors
moving from the red end of the rainbow to the blue end.
