Answer: 3) the point between 2 objects where they balance each other

Explanation:

The center of mass of two bodies about which the bodies orbit and balance each other is known as Barycenter. It is the point of balance of two or more celestial bodies. The Barycenter determines the orbit of the celestial bodies.

For example: the binary stars orbit a common center of mass. Pluto and its moon Charon revolve about their Barycenter.

Hence, the correct option is 3.

Six dogs pull a two-person sled with a total mass of 220 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow i

irina [24]

Answer:

a) 2457J

b) 558W

c) 337N

Explanation:

Assuming dogs started from rest.

$v=a*t\\t=\frac{a}{v}\\v=12\frac{km}{h}\frac{1000m}{km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}\\\\v=3.3m/s\\\\t=\frac{3.3m/s}{0.75m/s^2}\\t=4.4s$

and the displacement is given by:

$d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\d=7.3m$

Using the energy conservation formula:

$K_i+U_i+W_d+W_f=K_f+U_f$

Because the motion started from rest the initial kinetic energy is zero, the motion occurred in-ground level so the gravitational energy is zero too.

the work done by the friction force is given by:

$W_f=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d*cos(180)\\W_f=0.08*220kg*9.8m/s^2*7.3m*(-1)\\W_f=-1259J$

so:

$W_d=\frac{1}{2}*220kg*(3.3m/s)^2+1259J\\W_d=2457J$

The power is given by:

$P=\frac{W}{t}\\\\P=\frac{2457J}{4.4s}\\\\P=558W$

and the force exerted by the dogs:

$W_d=F_d*d*cos(\theta)\\F_d=\frac{W_d}{d*cos(0)}\\\\F=\frac{2457J}{7.3m*(1)}\\\\F=337N$

A school bus moves at speed of 35 mi/hr for 20 miles. How long will it take the bus to get to school

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming school is at the end of the 20 mile route, then

20 mi / 35 mi/hr = 0.57142...hr

which is about 34 minutes 17 seconds
