Hi there!
(a)
Recall that:
W = Work (J)
F = Force (N)
d = Displacement (m)
Since this is a dot product, we only use the component of force that is IN the direction of the displacement. We can use the horizontal component of the given force to solve for the work.
To the nearest multiple of ten:
(b)
The object is not being displaced vertically. Since the displacement (horizontal) is perpendicular to the force of gravity (vertical), cos(90°) = 0, and there is NO work done by gravity.
Thus:
(c)
Similarly, the normal force is perpendicular to the displacement, so:
(d)
Recall that the force of kinetic friction is given by:
Since the force of friction resists the applied force (assigned the positive direction), the work due to friction is NEGATIVE because energy is being LOST. Thus:
In multiples of ten:
(e)
Simply add up the above values of work to find the net work.
Nearest multiple of ten:
(f)
Similarly, we can use a summation of forces in the HORIZONTAL direction. (cosine of the applied force)
Nearest multiple of ten:
Answer:
Laser light however contains only one wavelength. This property makes lasers monochromatic, meaning of one color. Another property of lasers is that all the wavelengths are in phase, meaning they wave together. This property is called coherency. Laser light travels in the same direction, parallel to one another.
By Newton's 2nd law of motion, F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.
Rearranging this equation to find acceleration would give us:
a = F/m
The horizontal force to the right is 10N, because the box is pushed to the right with a force of 20N, and the friction force of 10N opposes that, so:
20N - 10N = 10N
The mass is 2kg.
Putting these values into the equation gives us:
a = F/m
= 10/2
= 5ms^-2
The acceleration of the box is 5ms^-2
From an energy balance, we can use this formula to solve for the angular speed of the chimney
ω^2 = 3g / h sin θ
Substituting the given values:
ω^2 = 3 (9.81) / 53.2 sin 34.1
ω^2 = 0.987 /s
The formula for radial acceleration is:
a = rω^2
So,
a = 53.2 (0.987) = 52.494 /s^2
The linear velocity is:
v^2 = ar
v^2 = 52.949 (53.2) = 2816.887
The tangential acceleration is:
a = r v^2
a = 53.2 (2816.887)
a = 149858.378 m/s^2
If the tangential acceleration is equal to g:
g = r^2 3g / sin θ
Solving for θ
θ = 67°
