A sled starts from rest,

Physics
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

25.6 m/s

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the sled.  There are two forces acting on the sled:

Normal force pushing perpendicular to the hill

Weight force pulling straight down

Take sum of the forces parallel to the hill:

∑F = ma

mg sin θ = ma

a = g sin θ

a = (9.8 m/s²) (sin 38.0°)

a = 6.03 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 6.03 m/s²

t = 4.24 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (6.03 m/s²) (4.24 s) + (0 m/s)

v = 25.6 m/s

Why is the electromagnetic spectrum called a spectrum?
Doss [256]

Answer & Explanation:

Scientists call them all electromagnetic radiation. The waves of energy are called electromagnetic (EM) because they have oscillating electric and magnetic fields. Scientists classify them by their frequency or wavelength, going from high to low frequency (short to long wavelength).

Infrared waves from the sun are what make our skin feel warm on a sunny day. If an infrared wave has a frequency of 3.0 x 1012 H
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The wavelength of the infrared wave is <u>0.0001 m</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of an infrared wave is, f=3.0\times 10^{12}\ Hz

We know that, infrared waves are electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves travel with the same speed and their magnitude is equal to the speed of light in air.

So, speed of infrared waves coming from the Sun travels with the speed of light and thus its magnitude is given as:

v=c=3.0\times 10^8\ m/s

Where, 'v' is the speed of infrared waves and 'c' is the speed of light.

Now, we have a formula for the speed of any wave and is given as:

v=f\lambda

Where, \lambda \to \textrm{Wavelength of infrared wave}

Now, rewriting the above formula in terms of wavelength, \lambda, we get:

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Now, plug in 3.0\times 10^8 for 'v', 3.0\times 10^{12} for 'f' and solve for  \lambda. This gives,

\lambda=\frac{3.0\times 10^8}{3.0\times 10^{12}}\\\\\lambda=0.0001\ m

Therefore, the wavelength of the infrared wave is 0.0001 m.

A car travels around a level, circular track that is 750m across. What coefficient of friction is required to ensure the car can
Crank

The coefficient of friction must be 0.196

Explanation:

For a car moving on a circular track, the frictional force provides the centripetal force needed to keep the car in circular motion. Therefore, we can write:

\mu mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the term on the left is the frictional force acting between the tires of the car and the road, while the term on the right is the centripetal force. The various terms are:

\mu is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road

m is the mass of the car

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the curve

In this problem,

r = 750 m is the radius

v=85 mph \cdot \frac{1609}{3600}=38.0 m/s is the speed

And solving for \mu, we find the coefficient of friction required to keep the car in circular motion:

\mu = \frac{v^2}{rg}=\frac{38.0^2}{(750)(9.8)}=0.196
