A professor has to haul a cart up a ramp. The ramp has an angle of about 10 degrees and is about 5 meters long. His initial spee

d at the bottom of the ramp is 4.5 m/s, and the cart has a mass of about 80 kg. How hard does he have to push on the cart so that at the top of the ramp, its speed has not dropped below 3.6 m/s? Neglecting friction, what is the magnitude of the minimum force he has to exert on the cart?

Answer:

77.95 N

Explanation:

work done by force WF = F×L

work done by gravity Wg = -m×g×L×sinθ

initial kinetic energy Ki = (1/2)×m×vi^2

final kinetic energy Kf = (1/2)×m×vf^2

from work energy relation

net work = change in KE

W_tot = K_f - K_i

WF + Wg = K_f - K_i

F×L - mg×L×sinθ = (1/2)×m×(v_f^2 - v_i^2)

F×5 - 80×9.81×5×sin10 = (1/2)×80×(3.6^2-4.5^2)

force F = 77.95 N

What evidence did wegener have to support his theory of plate tectonics?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Wegener first thought of this idea by noticing that the different large landmasses of the Earth almost fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. The continental shelf of the Americas fits closely to Africa and Europe, and other continents showed the same trend. Wegner also analyzed both sides of the Atlantic Ocean for rock type, geological structures and fossils and noticed that there was a significant similarity between matching sides of the continents, especially in fossil plants.

PLEASE HELP THIS IS DUE LIKE HELP ME PLEASE
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

At the end points of motion (either side) the velocity must be zero because the velocity is changing from - to + (it can't turn around around without passing thru zero,

The velocity will then increase to the midpoint of the motion.

m g h = 1/2 m v^2    where h is the vertical distance thru which the pendulum travels

Calculate the change in velocity of a 0.070kg tennis ball hit by Serena with a force of 140 N over 0.020 s
Brilliant_brown [7]
V=at and a=F/m

140/.070 = 2000m/s^2

2000*.020 = 40m/s

The ball’s velocity increased by 40m/s.
