A 3.0-kg block starts at rest at the top of a 37° incline, which is 5.0 m long. Its speed when it reaches the bottom is 2.0 m/s.

What is the average friction force opposing its motion?

Answer: f_{r} = 16.49N

Explanation: The object is placed on an inclined plane at an angle of 37° thus making it weight have two component,

W_{x} = horizontal component of the weight = mgsinФ

W_{y} = vertical component of weight = mgcosФ

Due to the way the object is positioned, the horizontal component of force will accelerate the object thus acting as an applied force.

by using newton's law of motion, we have that

mgsinФ - f_{r} = ma

where m = mass of object=5kg

a = acceleration= unknown

Ф = angle of inclination = 37°

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^{2}

f_{r} = frictional force = unknown

we need to first get the acceleration before the frictional force which is gotten by using the equation below

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

where v = final velocity = 2m/s

u = initial velocity = 0m/s (because the object started from rest)

a= unknown

S= distance covered = length of plane = 5m

2^{2} = 0^{2} + 2*a*5\\\\4= 10 *a\\\\a = \frac{4}{10} \\a = 0.4m/s^{2}

we slot in a into the equation below to get frictional force

mgsinФ - f_{r} = ma

3 * 9.8 * sin 37 - f_{r} = 3* 0.4

17.9633 - f_{r} =  1.2

f_{r} = 17.9633 - 1.2

f_{r} = 16.49N

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Δθ₁ =  172.5 rev

Δθ₁h =  43.1 rev

Δθ₂ =   920 rev

Δθ₂h = 690 rev

Explanation:

  • Assuming uniform angular acceleration, we can use the following kinematic equation in order to find the total angle rotated during the acceleration process, from rest to its operating speed:

       \Delta \theta = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2}  (1)  

  • Now, we need first to find the value of  the angular acceleration, that we can get from the following expression:

       \omega_{f1}  = \omega_{o} + \alpha * \Delta t  (2)

  • Since the machine starts from rest, ω₀ = 0.
  • We know the value of ωf₁ (the operating speed) in rev/min.
  • Due to the time is expressed in seconds, it is suitable to convert rev/min to rev/sec, as follows:

       3450 \frac{rev}{min} * \frac{1 min}{60s} = 57.5 rev/sec (3)

  • Replacing by the givens in (2):

       57.5 rev/sec = 0 + \alpha * 6 s  (4)

  • Solving for α:

       \alpha = \frac{\omega_{f1}}{\Delta t} = \frac{57.5 rev/sec}{6 sec} = 9.6 rev/sec2 (5)

  • Replacing (5) and Δt in (1), we get:

       \Delta \theta_{1} = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 6.9 rev/sec2* 36 sec2 = 172.5 rev  (6)

  • in order to get the number of revolutions during the first half of this period, we need just to replace Δt in (6) by Δt/2, as follows:

       \Delta \theta_{1h} = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t/2)^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 6.9 rev/sec2* 9 sec2 = 43.2 rev  (7)

  • In order to get the number of revolutions rotated during the deceleration period, assuming constant deceleration, we can use the following kinematic equation:

       \Delta \theta = \omega_{o} * \Delta t + \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2}  (8)

  • First of all, we need to find the value of the angular acceleration during the second period.
  • We can use again (2) replacing by the givens:
  • ωf =0 (the machine finally comes to an stop)
  • ω₀ = ωf₁ = 57.5 rev/sec
  • Δt = 32 s

       0 = 57.5 rev/sec + \alpha * 32 s  (9)

  • Solving for α in (9), we get:

       \alpha_{2}  =- \frac{\omega_{f1}}{\Delta t} = \frac{-57.5 rev/sec}{32 sec} = -1.8 rev/sec2 (10)

  • Now, we can replace the values of ω₀, Δt and α₂ in (8), as follows:

        \Delta \theta_{2}  = (57.5 rev/sec*32) s -\frac{1}{2} * 1.8 rev/sec2\alpha *(32s)^{2} = 920 rev (11)

  • In order to get finally the number of revolutions rotated during the first half of the second period, we need just to replace 32 s by 16 s, as follows:
  • \Delta \theta_{2h}  = (57.5 rev/sec*16 s) -\frac{1}{2} * 1.8 rev/sec2\alpha *(16s)^{2} = 690 rev (12)

Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum is divided into seven ranges of wavelengths and is the part visible to the human eye
oksano4ka [1.4K]
In one of the most amazing coincidences in all of science,
the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that's visible to the
human eye is called "visible light".

Visible light is not 'divided' into anything. We mention the names
to seven of the colors in visible light. But all of the thousands of
OTHER colors that we can see are in there too, even though we
don't bother to list their names when we buzz through the rainbow
in the third grade.

A) Show that the surface temperature of a star can be inferred from measurements of blackbodyfluxes at two different frequencies
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The answers to the questions have been solved in the attachment.

Explanation:

The answers to part a to e are all contained in the attachment. For answer part b, temperature and frequency were assumed to be fixed or constant. V² is directly proportional to T telling us that variation in T gives us a square in the frequency variation. This tells us why it is difficult when both frequencies are on this side of the black body.
