A horizontal force of 100 N is used to pull a crate, which weighs 500 N, at constant velocity across a horizontal floor. What is

the coefficient of kinetic friction?
Physics

Ilya [14]3 years ago

Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

Horizontal force=100N

Weight of crate=500 N

We have to find the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Normal ,N=Weight=500N

Horizontal force,F_x=\mu_kN

Where F_x=Horizontal force

N=Normal force

\mu_k=Coefficient of kinetic friction

Substitute the values in the formula

100=\mu_k(500)

\mu_k=\frac{100}{500}=0.2

Hence, the coefficient of kinetic friction =0.2

An architect is redesigning a rectangular room on the blueprints of a house. She decides to double the width of the room, increa
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:3.6

Explanation:

Given

Architect decide to double the width

length increases by 50 percent

height increases by 20 percent

Let L,B,H be length,height and width of rectangular room

L'=1.5L

B'=2B

H'=1.2H

therefore new volume V'=L'\times B'\times H'

V'=1.5L\times 2B\times 1.2H

V'=3.6LBH

new volume is 3.6 times the original

(a) 25lx

(b) 11.11lx

<u>Explanation:</u>

Illuminance is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.

So,

I = k\frac{1}{r^2}

where, k is a constant

So,

(a)

If I = 100lx and r₂ = 2r Then,

I_2 = k\frac{1}{(2r)^2}

Dividing both the equation we get

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{k}{r^2} X\frac{(2r)^2}{k} \\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2} = 4\\\\I_2 = \frac{I_1}{4}\\\\I_2 = \frac{100}{4}  = 25lx

When the distance is doubled then the illumination reduces by one- fourth and becomes 25lx

(b)

If I = 100lx and r₂ = 3r Then,

I_2 = k\frac{1}{(3r)^2}

Dividing equation 1 and 3 we get

\frac{I_1}{I_2} = \frac{k}{r^2} X\frac{(3r)^2}{k} \\\\\frac{I_1}{I_2} = 9\\\\I_2 = \frac{I_1}{9}\\\\I_2 = \frac{100}{9}  = 11.11lx

When the distance is tripled then the illumination reduces by one- ninth and becomes 11.11lx

The motorcycle travels with a constant speed v0 along the path that, for a short distance, takes the form of a sine curve. Deter
Alexandra [31]

Let at any instant of time the speed is vo and the angle made by the bike with the horizontal is given

now we have

component of speed in x direction given as

v_x = v_0cos\theta

component of speed in y direction will be

v_y = v_0sin\theta

now from above two equations we can say that here

\theta = angle with the horizontal at any instant

and since here it is a sine curve so we know that

y = sin(x)

so we have slope of graph

tan\theta = \frac{dy}{dx} = cos(x)
