The car travels at a speed of 25m/s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 1500kg

Coefficient of friction, μk = 0.47

Distance, x = 68m

Speed, s = ?

We know,

Force, F = ma

and

F = μ X m X g

Therefore,

μ * m * g = m * a

μ * g = a

Let, g = 9.8m/s²

So,

a = 0.47 * 9.8 m/s^2

a = 4.606m/s^2

We know,

v^2 - u^2 = 2as

where, v is the final velocity

           u is the initial velocity

           a is the acceleration

           s is the distance

If the car comes to rest, the final velocity, v becomes 0.

So,

u^2 = 2 * 4.606 * 68\\\\u^2 = 626.416m/s\\\\u = 25m/s

The car travels at a speed of 25m/s.

A pilot is upside down at the top of an inverted loop of radius 3.20 x 103 m. At the top of the loop his normal force is only on
n200080 [17]

Answer:

6858.5712 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

Radius, r

R = 3.20 * 10^3.

Normal force = 0.5 * normal weight

Normal force = Fn ; Normal weight = Fg

Fn = 0.5Fg

Recall:

mv² / R = Fn + Fg

Fn = 0.5Fg

mv² / R = 0.5Fg + Fg

mv² /R = 1.5Fg

mv² = 1.5Fg * R

F = mg

mv² = 1.5* mg * R

v² = 1.5gR

v = sqrt(1.5gR)

V = sqrt(1.5 * 9.8 * 3.2 * 10^3)

V = sqrt(47.04^3)

V = 6858.5712 m/s

A man attempts to push a 19.8 kg crate across a warehouse floor. He slowly increases the force until the crate starts to move at
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

 μ = 0.18

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second Law, the coordinate system is horizontal and vertical

Before starting to move the box

Y axis

     N-W = 0

     N = W = mg

X axis

     F -fr = 0

     F = fr

The friction force has the formula

     fr = μ N

     fr =  μ m g

At the limit point just before starting the movement

     F = μ m g

     μ = F / m g

calculate

      μ = 34.8 / (19.8 9.8)

    μ = 0.18

A passenger on your boat falls overboard. what should you do first?
yarga [219]
The very first thing that you should do when a passenger on your boat falls overboard is to throw a PFD or also known as a Personal Flotation Device. This would include anything that can help the passenger to float. But this step would differ, only if the passenger is not wearing a lifevest.

When light is directed on a metal surface, the kinetic energies of the photoelectrons a) are random b) vary with the frequency o
jekas [21]

Answer:

b) vary with the frequency of the light

Explanation:

The phone electric effect can be expressed as

K.E=(hv -W•)

Where K.E is the Kinectic energy

W• = work function of the metal

ν =frequency of the radiation

h = Planck's constat

Then, we can see that K.E is proportional linearly to "v" in the equation above.

Therefore, When light is directed on a metal surface, the kinetic energies of the photoelectrons vary with the frequency of the light
