Answer:

Frictional force, f = 4180.11 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the truck, m = 3500 kg

It is parked on a 7 degrees slope. Let f is the frictional force acting on the truck. The force acting on it parallel to the slope is equal to the friction force required to prevent the truck from moving. It is given by :

$f=mg\ sin\theta$

$f=3500\times 9.8 \ sin(7)$

f = 4180.11 N

So, the friction force on the truck is 4180.11 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

4180 N

Explanation:

In order to keep the truck balanced and stationary, the force of friction on the truck must be equal to the component of the weight of the truck acting parallel to the slope.

The component of the weight of the truck acting parallel to the slope is:

$mg sin \theta$

where

m = 3500 kg is the mass of the truck

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

$\theta=7.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of the slope

Therefore, the force of friction must be equal to

$F=(3500)(9.8)(sin 7.0^{\circ})=4180 N$

What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?

KiRa [710]

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

An automobile having a mass of 1,000 kg is driven into a brick wall in a safety test. The bumper behaves like a spring with cons

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

$v=2.02\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

Assuming no energy lost, according to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the automobile becomes potential energy after the crash:

$K=U\\\frac{mv^2}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}$

Here m is the automobile's mass, v is the speed of the car before impact, k is the "bumper" constant and x is the compression of the bumper due to the collision. Solving for v:

$v=x\sqrt\frac{k}{m}\\v=2.63*10^{-2}m\sqrt{\frac{5.9*10^6\frac{N}{m}}{10^3kg}}\\v=2.02\frac{m}{s}$
