Answer:

0.167m/s

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum which States that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of the bodies after collision. The bodies move with a common velocity after collision.

Given momentum = Maas × velocity.

Momentum of glider A = 1kg×1m/s

Momentum of glider = 1kgm/s

Momentum of glider B = 5kg × 0m/s

The initial velocity of glider B is zero since it is at rest.

Momentum of glider B = 0kgm/s

Momentum of the bodies after collision = (mA+mB)v where;

mA and mB are the masses of the gliders

v is their common velocity after collision.

Momentum = (1+5)v

Momentum after collision = 6v

According to the law of conservation of momentum;

1kgm/s + 0kgm/s = 6v

1 =6v

V =1/6m/s

Their speed after collision will be 0.167m/s

The vertical weight carried by the builder at the rear end is F = 308.1 N

<h3>Calculations and Parameters</h3>

Given that:

The weight is carried up along the plane in rotational equilibrium condition

The torque equilibrium condition can be used to solve

We can note that the torque due to the force of the rear person about the position of the front person = Torque due to the weight of the block about the position of the front person

This would lead to:

F(W*cosθ) = mgsinθ(L/2) + mgcosθ(W/2)

F(1cos20)= 197/2(3.10sin20 + 2 cos 20)

Fcos20= 289.55

F= 308.1N

1. A mass is on a level plane, it has a weight of 20N. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction if an applied force
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

0.4

Explanation:

F-Fr=ma where F is applied force, Fr is friction, m is mass and a is acceleration.

Since the mass is moving with a constant velocity, there's no acceleration hence

F=Fr=\mu N where N is the weight of object and \mu is coefficient of kinetic friction.

F=\mu N and making [tex]\mu the subject

\mu=\frac {F}{N}

Substituting F for 8 N and N for 20 N

\mu=\frac {8}{20}=0.4

Therefore, coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.4
