Answer:

Change in mechanical energy = work done by friction

so it is equal to

W = -8.16 J

Explanation:

As we know that change in mechanical energy must be equal to the work done by non conservative forces only

So here when block moves down the inclined plane then the work done by friction force is given as

W = F.d

here we have

F = \mu F_n

here we know that

F_n = mg cos\theta

so we have

F_n = 2.55(9.81)(cos60)

F_n = 12.5 N

Now the friction force on the block is given as

F_f = \mu F_n

F_f = 0.25 \times 12.5

F_f = 3.13 N

now work done by the friction is given as

W = -(3.13)(2.61)

W = -8.16 J

Heat rash is caused by chemical exposure Truth or false
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

This is false.

Explanation:

Heat rash develops when some of your sweat ducts clog. Instead of evaporating, perspiration gets trapped beneath the skin, causing inflammation and rash. Heat rash is usually self-limited, meaning it resolves on its own without treatment. Over-the-counter treatments such as calamine, hydrocortisone cream, itch preparations (such as Benadryl spray), or sunburn lotions can be used as skincare to treat the itching and burning symptoms. Heat rash usually goes away on its own within three or four days so long as you don't irritate the site further. Heat rash happens when the sweat glands get blocked. The trapped sweat irritates the skin and leads to small bumps.

on a very muddy football field, a 120 kg linebacker tackles an 75 kg halfback. immediately before the collision, the linebacker
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
B4 the tackle: 

<span>The linebacker's momentum = 115 x 8.5 = 977.5 kg m/s north </span>

<span>and the halfback's momentum = 89 x 6.7 = 596.3 kg m/s east </span>


<span>After the tackle they move together with a momentum equal to the vector sum of their separate momentums b4 the tackle </span>

<span>The vector triangle is right angled: </span>

<span>magnitude of final momentum = √(977.5² + 596.3²) = 1145.034 kg m/s </span>

<span>so (115 + 89)v(f) = 1145.034 ←←[b/c p = mv] </span>

<span>v(f) = 5.6 m/s (to 2 sig figs) </span>


<span>direction of v(f) is the same as the direction of the final momentum </span>

<span>so direction of v(f) = arctan (596.3 / 977.5) = N 31° E (to 2 sig figs) </span>


<span>so the velocity of the two players after the tackle is 5.6 m/s in the direction N 31° E </span>




<span>btw ... The direction can be given heaps of different ways ... N 31° E is probably the easiest way to express it when using the vector triangle to find it</span>

A vertical spring with a spring constant of 420 N/m is mounted on the floor. From directly above the spring, which is unstrained
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

19.53 cm

Explanation:

The computation of the height is as follows:

Here we applied the conservation of the energy formula

As we know that

P.E of the block = P.E of the spring

 m g h = ( 1 ÷ 2) k x^2

where

m = 0.15

g = 9.81

k = 420

x = 0.037

So now put the values to the above formula

(0.15) (9.81) (h) = 1 ÷2 × 420 × (0.037)^2

1.4715 (h) = 0.28749

h = 0.19537 m

= 19.53 cm
