Answer: Ok, first, if the mass of the carr is M, and the angle of the hill is a (counting counterclockwise from the ground), the equations for the forces are:

Gravity force Fg = - Mg*sin(a)

Knowing that the normal force that the ground is doing in the car is N = Mg*cos(a)

then the Friction force is: Ff  = 0.9*Mg*cos(a)

if the car is parked, then the sum of the forces must be equal to zero, this is

0.9*Mg*cos(a) - Mg*sin(a) = 0

Mg( 0.9*cos(a) - sin(a)) = 0

so

0.9*cos(a) = sin(a)

0.9 = sin(a)/cos(a) = Tg(a)

a = aTg(0.9) = 41.9°

so the maximum angle is 41.9°, if is smaller or equal, then your car will be fine.

2. Two projectiles thrown from the same point at angles 0,=60° and 02=30° with the horizontal,
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The maximum height (h) of a projectile with an initial velocity of u, acceleration due to gravity g and at an angle θ with the horizontal is given as:

h=\frac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g}

Given that the two projectile has the same height.

For\ the\ first\ projectile\ with\ an\ angle\ \60^0 \ with\ the\ horizontal\ and initial\ velocity\ u_1:\\\\h=\frac{u_1^2sin^260}{2g} =\frac{0.75u_1^2}{2g} \\\\For\ the\ second\ projectile\ with\ an\ angle\ \30 \ with\ the\ horizontal\ and initial\ velocity\ u_2:\\\\h=\frac{u_2^2sin^230}{2g} =\frac{0.25u_2^2}{2g}\\\\\frac{0.25u_2^2}{2g}=\frac{0.75u_1^2}{2g}\\\\0.25u_2^2=0.75u_1^2\\\\\frac{u_1^2}{u_2^2} =\frac{0.25}{0.75} \\\\\frac{u_1^2}{u_2^2}=\frac{1}{3} \\\\\frac{u_1}{u_2}=\sqrt\frac{1}{3}

An average sleeping person metabolizes at a rate of about 80 W by digesting food or burning fat. Typically, 20% of this energy g
Leto [7]

Answer:

<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>

Explanation:

The Power generated by metabolizing food = 80 W

The watt W is equivalent to the Joules per sec J/s

therefor power = 80 J/s

20% of this energy is not used for heating, amount available for heating is

==> H = 80% of 80 = 0.8 x 80 = 64 J/s

The inner body temperature = 37 °C = 273 + 37 = 310 K

The entropy of this inner body ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/310 = 0.2065 J/K-s

The skin temperature is cooler than the inner body by 7 °C

Temperature of the skin =  37 - 7 = 30 °C = 273 + 30 = 303 K

The entropy of the skin = ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/303 = 0.2112 J/K-s

change in entropy of the person's body = (entropy of hot region: inner body) - (entropy of cooler region: skin)

==> 0.2065 - 0.2112 =<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>

What is the net work doneon the object over the distance shown?
GuDViN [60]

A)F_0d

Explanation

If you graph the force on an object as a function of the position of that object, then the area under the curve will equal the work done on that object, so we need to find the area under the function to find the work

Step 1

find the area under the function.

so

Area:

\text{Area}=rec\tan gle_{green}+triangle_{gren}-triangle_{red}\begin{gathered} \text{the area of a rectangle is given by} \\ A_{rec}=lenght\cdot widht \\ \text{and} \\ \text{the area of a triangle is given by:} \\ A_{tr}=\frac{base\cdot height}{2} \end{gathered}

so

\begin{gathered} \text{Area}=rec\tan gle_{green}+triangle_{gren}-triangle_{red} \\ \text{replace} \\ \text{Area}=(F_0\cdot d)+\frac{(F_0\cdot d)}{2}-\frac{(F_0\cdot d)}{2} \\ \text{Area}=(F_0\cdot d) \\ Area=F_0d \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is

A)F_0d

I hope this helps you
