A sled weighing 300 N is moved at constant speed over a horizontal floor by a force of 50 N applied parallel to the floor

Physics

If the sled is moving at a constant speed, that mean there needs to be an equal but opposite force countering the 50 N force. This opposite force is friction, and is equal to the weight times a factor:

F = n*W

Let n be the coefficient of friction.

Now you simply fill in the formula and you get:

50 N = n*300N or n = 50N / 300N = 1/6

So, the final answer is 1/6 or 0.1667

svp [43]

Answer:

625 piece.

Explanation:

Let n be the required no of piece

200 litre = 200 x 10⁻³ m³ = 200 x 10⁻³ x 10³ kg = 200 Kg

mass of ice piece =  n x 30 x /1000

Heat lost by ice pieces  = (n x 30) / 1000 x  ( 80 + 1 x 16⁰C)

Heat gained by water = 200 x 1 x 9⁰C

Heat lost  = Heat gained

(n x 30) /1000 x ( 80 + 16 ) =200 x 9

2.88 n = 1800

n = 625

A solid cylinder of uniform density of 0.85 g/cm3 floats in a glass of water tinted light blue by food coloring.
SVEN [57.7K]

Each side has to have at least 44 horses

F61160 N. This is further explained below.

<h3>What is the force?</h3>

Generally, We are only interested in the component that operates horizontally since the vertical components all cancel each other out. The pressure difference works on the hemisphere to generate a normal force all over the surface, but we are only concerned with that force's horizontal component. This may be determined by supposing the hemispheres to be two flat circular plates of the same radius as the hemispheres that have been forced together.

Therefore, force is equal to pressure multiplied by area, which is

F= (970 -15 )( * (0.45 m)2)

F=60754 N for each side.

Therefore, each side has to have at least 44 horses

44* 1390 = 61160 N

Tom kicks a soccer ball on a flat, level field with initial speed 20 m/s at an angle 35 degrees above the horizontal. (1) How lo
Arada [10]

Explanation:

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

y₀ = 0 m

v₀ = 20 m/s

θ = 35°

aᵧ = -9.8 m/s²

1) Find t when y = 0.

y = y₀ + v₀ᵧ t + ½ aᵧ t²

0 = 0 + (20 sin 35°) t + ½ (-9.8) t²

0 = t (20 sin 35° - 4.9 t)

t = 0, t = 2.34

The ball stays in the air 2.34 seconds.

2) Find y when vᵧ = 0.

vᵧ² = v₀ᵧ² + 2aᵧ (y - y₀)

0² = (20 sin 35)² + 2(-9.8) (y - 0)

y = 6.71 m

The ball reaches a maximum height of 6.71 meters.

3) Find x when y = 0.

x = x₀ + v₀ₓ t + ½ aₓ t²

x = 0 + (20 cos 35°) (2.34) + ½ (0) (2.3)²

x = 38.4 m

The ball lands 38.4 meters from Tom.

4) Find v when y = 0.

vₓ = aₓ t + v₀ₓ

vₓ = (0) (2.34) + 20 cos 35°

vₓ = 16.4 m/s

vᵧ = aᵧ t + v₀ᵧ

vᵧ = (-9.8) (2.34) + 20 sin 35°

vᵧ = -11.5 m/s

v = √(vₓ² + vᵧ²)

v = √((16.4)² + (-11.5)²)

v = 20 m/s

The ball has a speed of 20 m/s just before it lands.

What is the kinetic energy of a 2122 kg car parked in a parking lot?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

There is no kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Since K=1/2mv^2 where m=2122kg and v=0, clearly the car has no kinetic energy as multiplying by 0 results in 0. If the car were moving, there would be kinetic energy.
