g A 1.45-kg block is pushed against a vertical wall by means of a spring (k = 860 N/m). The coefficient of static friction betwe

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The minimum compression is $x= 0.046m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m_b = 1.45 kg$

The spring constant is $k = 860 N/m$

The coefficient of static friction is $\mu = 0.36$

For the the block not slip it mean the sum of forces acting on the horizontal axis is equal to the forces acting on the vertical axis

Now the force acting on the vertical axis is the force due to gravity which is mathematically given as

$F_y = m_b*g$

And the force acting on the horizontal axis is force due to the spring which is mathematically represented as

$F_x = k *x * \mu$

where x is the minimum compression to keep the block from slipping

Now equating this two formulas and making x the subject

$x = \frac{m_b * g}{k * \mu}$

substituting values we have

$x = \frac{1.45 * 9.8}{860 *0.36}$

$x= 0.046m$

Sunitha can type 1800 words in half an hour. What is her typing speed in words per minute?

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

60words/minute

Explanation:

If Sunitha can type 1800 words in half an hour, this can be expressed as;

1800 words = 30 minutes

To get her typing speed per minute, we will use the formula

Speed = Number of words/Time used

Typing speed = 1800/30

Typing speed = 60words/minute

Hence her typing speed in words per minute is 60words/minute

Pls how to solve this problem. help would be appreciated

Bingel [31]

Answer:

80 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

a = -5 m/s²

v = 0 m/s

Δx = 640 m

Find: v₀

v² = v₀² + 2a(x − x₀)

(0 m/s)² = v₀² + 2(-5 m/s²) (640 m)

v₀ = 80 m/s
