They are unproven but accepted as fact.
Many experiments support them but they can be disproven by the results of a single experiment. Until then, they stand.
The third statement is correct.

Two workers are sliding 350 kgkg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 390 NN while the

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

$\mu_k=0.18$

Explanation:

First, we write the equations of motion for each axis. Since the crate is sliding with constant speed, its acceleration is zero. Then, we have:

$x: T+F-f_k=0\\\\y:N-mg=0$

Where T is the tension in the rope, F is the force exerted by the first worker, f_k is the frictional force, N is the normal force and mg is the weight of the crate.

Since $f_k=\mu_k N$ and $N=mg$ , we can rewrite the first equation as:

$T+F-\mu_k mg=0$

Now, we solve for $\mu_k$ and calculate it:

$\mu_k=\frac{T+F}{mg}\\ \\\mu_k =\frac{220N+390N}{(350kg)(9.8m/s^{2})} =0.18$

This means that the crate's coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor is 0.18.

Aaron's normal response time to apply the car brakes is 0.7 seconds. Aaron's response time doubles when he is tired. How far wil

Likurg_2 [28]

Aaron's car is moving at speed of 30 m/s

His reaction time is given as 0.7 s

but when he is tired the reaction time is doubled

Now we need to find the distance covered by his car when he is tired during the time when he react to apply brakes

So here since during this time speed is given as constant so we can say that distance covered can be product of speed and time

So here we can use

$d = v*t$

$d = 30 * 1.4$

$d = 42 m$

So the car will move to 42 m during the time when he apply brakes

If the area of an iron rod is 10 cm by 0.5 cm and length is 35 cm. Find the value of resistance, if 11x10^-8 ohm.m be the resist

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Resistance of the iron rod, R = 0.000077 ohms

Explanation:

It is given that,

Area of iron rod, $A=10\ cm\times 0.5\ cm=5\ cm^2 = 0.0005\ m^2$

Length of the rod, L = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Resistivity of Iron, $\rho=11\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

We need to find the resistance of the iron rod. It is given by :

$R=\rho\dfrac{L}{A}$

$R=11\times 10^{-8}\times \dfrac{0.35\ m}{0.0005\ m^2}$

$R=0.000077 \Omega$

So, the resistance of the rod is 0.000077 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.
