Answer:

4.36 seconds

Explanation:

According to the question;

Force is 550 N
Mass of the car is 1200 kg
Velocity of the car is 2.0 m/s

We are needed to find the time the car must the tow track pull the car.

From Newton's second law of motion;
Impulsive force, F = Mv÷t , where m is the mass, v is the velocity and t is the time.

Rearranging the formula;

t = mv ÷ F

Thus;

Time = (1200 kg × 2.0 m/s²) ÷ 550 N

= 4.36 seconds

Thus, the time needed to pull the car is 4.36 seconds

Image result for You are traveling at 16m/s for 18 seconds. What is your displacement?

The average velocity of the object is multiplied by the time traveled to find the displacement. The equation x = ½( v + u)t can be manipulated, as shown below, to find any one of the four values if the other three are known.

A 25kg chair initially at rest on a horizontal floor requires a 165 N horizontal force to set it in motion. Once the chair is in

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

$\mu_k=0.51$

Explanation:

Given that

Mass , m = 25 kg

We know that when body is in rest condition then static friction force act on the body and when body is in motion the kinetic friction force act on the body .That is why these two forces are given as follows

Static friction force ,fs= 165 N

Kinetic friction force ,fk = 127 N

If the body is moving with constant velocity ,it means that acceleration of that body is zero and all the forces are balanced.

Lets take coefficient of kinetic friction = μk

The kinetic friction is given as follows

fk = μk m g

Now by putting the values

127 = μk x 25 x 9.81

$\mu_k=\dfrac{127}{25\times 9.81}$

$\mu_k=0.51$

Therefore the value of coefficient of kinetic friction will be 0.51
