Which name is given to the type of friction that an objects falling through the air experience

. (a) How high a hill can a car coast up (engine disengaged) if work done by friction is negligible and its initial speed is 110

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

(a) the high of a hill that car can coast up (engine disengaged) if work done by friction is negligible and its initial speed is 110 km/h is 47.6 m

(b) thermal energy was generated by friction is 1.88 x $10^{5}$ J

(C) the average force of friction if the hill has a slope 2.5º above the horizontal is 373 N

Explanation:

given information:

m = 750 kg

initial velocity, $v_{0}$ = 110 km/h = 110 x 1000/3600 = 30.6 m/s $\frac{30.6^{2} }{2x9.8}$

initial height, $h_{0}$ = 22 m

slope, θ = 2.5°

(a) How high a hill can a car coast up (engine disengaged) if work done by friction is negligible and its initial speed is 110 km/h?

according to conservation-energy

EP = EK

mgh = $\frac{1}{2} mv_{0} ^{2}$

gh = $\frac{1}{2} v_{0} ^{2}$

h = $\frac{v_{0} ^{2} }{2g}$

= 47.6 m

(b) If, in actuality, a 750-kg car with an initial speed of 110 km/h is observed to coast up a hill to a height 22.0 m above its starting point, how much thermal energy was generated by friction?

thermal energy = mgΔh

= mg (h - $h_{0}$ )

= 750 x 9.8 x (47.6 - 22)

= 188160 Joule

= 1.88 x $10^{5}$ J

(c) What is the average force of friction if the hill has a slope 2.5º above the horizontal?

f d = mgΔh

f = mgΔh / d,

where h = d sin θ, d = h/sinθ

therefore

f = (mgΔh) / (h/sinθ)

= 1.88 x $10^{5}$ /(22/sin 2.5°)

= 373 N

A person weighing 0.9 kN rides in an elevator that has a downward acceleration of 1.9 m/s^2. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force is 0.7255kN

Explanation:

The elevator floor acts on the person with a force that is due to the gravitational acceleration less the downward acceleration of the elevator:

(force of floor F) = (mass of person m) x [ (grav. acceleration g) - (elevator acceleration a) ]

in other words, considering the elevator floor as a reference frame in the Earth's gravitational field, the person's weight decreases due to the downward acceleration, as follows:

$F = m\cdot(g-a)$

We are given the person's weight at rest, 0.9kN, from which the mass can be determined as:

$900 N = m\cdot g \implies m = \frac{900N}{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}}$

So

$F = \frac{900N}{9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}}\cdot(9.8-1.9)\frac{m}{s^2}\approx 725.5N=0.7255kN$

Why might some rivers form canyons and other form valleys??

kap26 [50]

Valleys are one of the most common landforms on the Earth and they are formed through erosion or the gradual wearing down of the land by wind and water. In river valleys for example, the river acts as an erosional agent by grinding down the rock or soil and creating a valley
