The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s².  That means that
an object falling under the influence of gravity will move 9.8 m/s
faster than it was moving a second earlier.

Falling from rest, it will be moving 9.8 m/s after the first second,
and 19.6 m/s after the 2nd second.

The height from which it fell doesn't matter.

The work done by friction to move the sled is  - 1,323 J.

<h3>What is Coefficient of friction?</h3>
  • The friction coefficient is the ratio of the normal force pressing two surfaces together to the frictional force preventing motion between them.
  • Typically, it is represented by the Greek letter µ. In terms of math, is equal to F/N, where F stands for frictional force and N for normal force.
  • The coefficient of friction has no dimensions because both F and N are measured in units of force (such as newtons or pounds). For both static and kinetic friction, the coefficient of friction has a range of values.
  • When an object experiences static friction, the frictional force resists any applied force, causing the object to stay at rest until the static frictional force is removed. The frictional force opposes an object's motion in kinetic friction.

Solution:

Given that

Coefficient of friction (µ) = 0.10

Mass (m) = 90kg

distance covered (d) = 30m

We use the formula:

friction work = -µmgdcos∅

friction work = -0.100 × 90 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 30 m × cos 60°

friction work = - 1,323 J

An excited hydrogen atom releases an electromagnetic wave to return to its normal state. You use your futuristic dual electric/m
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Direction of velocity of electromagnetic wave is given by the formula

E = E j ( vector form )

B = - Bi ( vector form )

Direction of velocity = direction of vector E X B

= E X B

= E j x -Bi

= - EB -k

v = EBk

So the direction of velocity will be along z direction.

Which unit is equivalent to j/s
mrs_skeptik [129]

To be honest, there's no sure way to answer that, because you haven't defined your terms and we can't be sure of what j or s might be.

Tell you what I'll do:. I'll assume definitions for j and s, and then I'll answer the question that I invented.

Assume that j stands for Joule, the unit of energy. And assume that s stands for 'second', the unit of time.

Then j/s is the rate of transferring energy or doing work.

Its unit is the Watt, equivalent to 1 Joule per second.

In your system of notation, it would be 'w' .

A train takes ms eaddy 200 miles north and 150 miles south. The total trip took 3.5 hours what was the average velocity of the t
Verizon [17]
The whole point of this problem is to check how well you understand
the definitions of a few important quantities, like velocity, speed, distance,
displacement etc.

Before we begin, I just want to mention that 'MPG' is not a unit of either
velocity or speed, but I think I know what you mean.

-- For some reason, Ms. Eaddy rode 100 miles north on the train, then
stayed aboard while the train turned around and took her 150 miles south.
The total distance she rode was (100 + 150) = 250 miles.  But she ended up
50 miles south of where she began.

-- Displacement for the whole trip = distance and direction from the start point
to the finish point.

Displacement = 50 miles south

-- Average velocity = (displacement) / (time)

50 miles south / 3.5 hours = <u>14.29 miles per hour south</u>
