Pete slides a crate up a ramp with constant speed at an angle of 24.3 ◦ by exerting a 289 N force parallel to the ramp. How much

work has been done against gravity when the crate is raised a vertical distance of 2.39 m? The coefficient of friction is 0.33.

Answer:

W=972.73 J

Explanation:

Given that

θ = 24.3°

F= 289 N

h= 2.39 m

μ = 0.33

Given that velocity is constant is means that acceleration is zero that is why force will be balance.

Lest take mass = m

Gravity force along ramp = m g sinθ

Friction force =  μm g cosθ

F= m g sinθ  + μm g cosθ

By putting the values

F= m g (sinθ  + μcosθ)              

289 = 10 m  ( sin 24.3°+ 0.33 cos 24.3°)                 ( take g =10 m/s²)

289 = 10 m(0.71)

m = 40.7 kg

The force against gravity W

W= m g h

W= 40.7 x 10 x 2.39 J

W=972.73 J

Application - You have two objects that you want to push the same distance (5 meters) across the floor. The objects have differe
Mamont248 [21]

I see you're in Middle School, so I've got a hunch that they want you
to say "the dresser because it has more mass".  But that's a poor
answer, to a poor question.

The fact is that there's no way to tell.

The force it takes to move either object across the floor does NOT really
depend on just its mass.  It depends on both the object's mass AND the
friction between the object and the floor.  And THAT depends on the shape
of the feet where they touch the floor, and what kind of material the feet and
the floor are made of.

So it seems to me that we really don't have enough information to answer
the question with.

But again, I suspect that the answer they want is "the dresser because
it has more mass".

The closest stars are 4 light years away from us. How far away must you be from a 854 kHz radio station with power 50.0 kW for t
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The distance from the radio station is 0.28 light years away.

Solution:

As per the question:

Distance, d = 4 ly

Frequency of the radio station, f = 854 kHz = 854\times 10^{3}\ Hz

Power, P = 50 kW = 50\times 10^{3}\ W

I_{p} = 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

Now,

From the relation:

P = nhf

where

n = no. of photons/second

h = Planck's constant

f = frequency

Now,

n = \frac{P}{hf} = \frac{50\times 10^{3}}{6.626\times 10^{- 34}\times 854\times 10^{3}} = 8.836\times 10^{31}\ photons/s

Area of the sphere, A = 4\pi r^{2}

Now,

Suppose the distance from the radio station be 'r' from where the intensity of the photon is 1\ photon/s/m^{2}

I_{p} = \frac{n}{A} = \frac{n}{4\pi r^{2}}

1 = \frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi r^{2}}

r = \sqrt{\frac{8.836\times 10^{31}}{4\pi}} = 2.65\times 10^{15}\ m

Now,

We know that:

1 ly = 9.4607\times 10^{15}\ m

Thus

r = \frac{2.65\times 10^{15}}{9.4607\times 10^{15}} = 0.28\ ly

The law of reflection says that the angle of incidence is
nekit [7.7K]
The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Furthermore, the law of reflection states that the incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal all lie in the same plane.

hope this helps :)

A basketball momentarily changes shape as it bounces off the floor. This is due to the balanced forces acting on the ball. True
nasty-shy [4]
It would be false to state that a <span>basketball momentarily changes shape as it bounces off the floor. This is due to the balanced forces acting on the ball. The correct option among the two options that are given in the question is the second option. I hope the answer comes to your help.</span>
