Answer:

\mu_k = 0.15

Explanation:

according to the kinematic equation

v^{2} - u^{2} = 2aS

Where

u is initial velocity  = 0 m/s

a = acceleration

S is distance = 8.00 m

final velocity = 1.0 m/s

a = \frac {v^{2}}{2S}

a = \frac {1{2}}{2*8.6}

a = 0.058 m/s^2

from newton second law

Net force = ma

f_{net} = ma

F - f = ma

25 - \mu_kN = ma

25 - \mu_kmg = ma

\frac {25 - ma}{mg} =\mu_k

\frac {25 - 16*0.058}{16*9.81} = 0.15

\mu_k = 0.15

The mass of the car?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1050 kg

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is:

KE (kinetic energy) = 1/2 × m × v² where <em>m</em> is the <em>mass in kg </em>and <em>v</em> is the velocity or <em>speed</em> of the object <em>in m/s</em>.

We can now substitute the values we know into this equation.

KE = 472 500 J and v = 30 m/s:

472 500 = 1/2 × m × 30²

Next, we can rearrange the equation to make m the subject and solve for m:

m = 472 500 ÷ (1/2 × 30²)

m = 472 500 ÷ 450

m = 1050 kg

Hope this helps!

Which would you expect to freeze faster pure water or salt solution why?
krek1111 [17]
Pure water.

A salt solution contains impurities whereas pure water will not contain any impurities.

Impurities increase the boiling point (freezing point) of a substance.

Thus, I would expect the pure water solution to freeze faster than the salt solution.

5. An acrobat, starting from rest, swings freely on a trapeze of
34kurt

The energy conservation and trigonometry we can find the results for the questions about the movement of the acrobat are;

     a) The maximum speed is v = 4.89 m / s

     b) The maximum height is h = 1.22 m

The energy conservation is one of the most fundamental principles of physics, stable that if there are no friction forces the mechanistic energy remains constant. Mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy plus the potential energies.

               Em = K + U

Let's write the energy in two points.

Starting point. Highest part of the oscillation

            Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. Lower part of the movement

            Em_f = K = ½ m v²

Energy is conserved.

            Emo = Em_f  

            m g h = ½ m v²

            v² = 2 gh

Let's use trigonometry to find the height, see attached.

         h = L - L cos θ

         h = L (1- cos θ)

They indicate that the initial angle is tea = 48º and the length is L = 3.7 m, let's calculate.

         h = 3.7 (1- cos 48)

          h = 1.22 m

this  is the maximum height of the movement.

Let's calculate the velocity.  

          v= \sqrt{2 \ 9.8 \ 1.22}  

          v = 4.89 m / s

In conclusion using the conservation of energy and trigonometry we can find the results for the questions about the movement of the acrobat are;

     a) The maximum speed is v = 4.89 m / s

     b) The maximum height is h = 1.22 m
