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
1 answer:
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

Which describes the movement of a fluid during convection?
andre [41]
The hot molecules around the heat source expands, becomes less dense, then rises. When it rises, the cooler molecules moves down to take its place. This can occur in fluid, which include gas or liquid.

An unknown charged particle passes without deflection through crossed electric and magnetic fields of strengths 187,500 V/m and
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

The electric fields of strengths E = 187,500 V/m and

and The magnetic  fields of strengths B = 0.1250 T

The diameter d is 25.05 cm which is converted to 0.2505m

The radius is (d/2)

= 0.2505m / 2 = 0.12525m

The given formula to find the magnetic force is F_{ma}=BqV---(i)

The given formula to find the electric force is F_{el}=qE---(ii)

The velocity of electric field and magnetic field is said to be perpendicular

Electric field is equal to magnectic field

Equate equation (i) and equation (ii)

Bqv=qE\\\\v=\frac{E}{B}

v=\frac{187500}{0.125} \\\\v=15\times10^5m/s

It is said that the particles moves in semi circle, so we are going to consider using centripetal force

F_{ce}=\frac{mv^2}{r}---(iii)

magnectic field is equal to centripetal force

Lets equate equation (i) and (iii)

Bqr=\frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\\frac{q}{m}=\frac{v}{Br}  \\\\\frac{q}{m} =\frac{15\times 10^5}{0.125\times0.12525} \\\\=\frac{15\times10^5}{0.015656} \\\\=95808383.23\\\\=958.1\times10^5C/kg

Therefore,  the particle's charge-to-mass ratio is 958.1\times10^5C/kg

b)

To identify the particle

Then 1/ 958.1 × 10⁵ C/kg

The charge to mass ratio is very close to that of a proton, which is about 1*10^8 C/kg

Therefore the particle is proton.

The charge per unit length on a long, straight filament is -92.0 μC/m. Find the electric field 10.0 cm above the filament.
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C towards the filament

Explanation:

Electric field due to a line charge is given by the expression

E = [tex]\frac{\lambda}{2\pi\times\epsilon_0\times r}[/tex]

where λ is linear charge density of line charge , r is distance of given point from line charge and ε₀ is a constant called permittivity and whose value is

8.85 x 10⁻¹².

Putting the given values in the equation given above

E = \frac{92\times10^{-6}}{2\times3.14\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times10^{-1}}

E = 1.655 x 10⁷ N/C

| A 1.0 kg stone is dropped from a bridge 100 m above a canyon. What will be the kinetic energy of the stone after it
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Option D

490 J

Explanation:

When at a height of 100 am above and released, the ball initially posses only potential energy. When it falls, some potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.

Initial potential energy= mgh where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is height. Substituting 1 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 100 m for h then

PE initial = 1*9.81*100= 981 J

At 50 m, PE will be 1*9.81*50=490.5 J

Subtracting PE at 50 m from initial PE we get the energy that has been converted to kinetic energy hence

981-490.5= 490.5 J

Approximately, 490 J
