Cole is riding a sled with initial speed of 5 m/s from west to east. the frictional force of 50 n exists due west. the mass of t

he sled and cole together is 100 kg. how far does the sled go before stopping? use the formula: a= (vf2-vi2)/2d regarding the relation among acceleration a, final velocity vf, initial velocity vi and the traveled distance of an object
d.

We can calculate the acceleration of Cole due to friction using Newton's second law of motion:
F=ma
where F=-50 N is the frictional force (with a negative sign, since the force acts against the direction of motion) and m=100 kg is the mass of Cole and the sled. By rearranging the equation, we find
a= \frac{F}{m}= \frac{-50 N}{100 kg}=-0.5 m/s^2

Now we can use the following formula to calculate the distance covered by Cole and the sled before stopping:
a= \frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}
where
v_f=0 is the final speed of the sled
v_i=5 m/s is the initial speed
d is the distance covered

By rearranging the equation, we find d:
d= \frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2a}= \frac{-(5 m/s)^2}{2 \cdot (-0.5 m/s^2)}=25 m

Estimate the monthly cost of using a 700 W refrigerator that runs for 10 hours a day if the cost per kilowatt hours is cents $.2
Mrac [35]

Answer:

$4.2

Explanation:

Given data

Power= 700W

time= 10 hours

Cost per kilowatt hours is cents $0.20

Let us find the number of hours in a month

=24*30

=720 hours

Energ= power*time

Energy= 700/1000*30

Energy= 7*3

Enery= 21 kwh

1 kwh= 0.2

21kwh= x

cross multiply

x=21*0.2

x= $4.2
