A dock worker loading crates on a ship finds that a 27 kg crate, initially at rest on a horizontal surface, requires a 80 N hori

zontal force to set it in motion. However, after the crate is in motion, a horizontal force of 56 N is required to keep it moving with a constant speed. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Find the coefficient of static friction between crate and floor.

Answer:0.302

Explanation:

Given

mass of crate m=27 kg

Force required to set crate in motion is 80 N

Once the crate is set  in motion 56 N is require to move it with constant velocity

i.e. 80 N is the amount of force needed to just overcome static friction and 56 is the kinetic friction force

thus  

f_s(static\ friction)=\mu \cdot N

where \muis the coefficient of static friction and N is Normal reaction

N=mg

f_s=\mu mg

\mu mg=80

\mu =\frac{80}{27\times 9.8}

\mu =0.302

A 70- kg bicycle rides his 9.8- kg bicycle with a speed of 16 m/ s. What is the magnitude of the braking force of the bicycle co
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

F = -319.2 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a bicyclist, m = 70 kg

Mass of the bicycle = 9.8 kg

The speed of a bicycle, v = 16 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the braking force of the bicycle come to rest in 4.0 m.

The braking force is given by :

F=ma\\\\=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\=\dfrac{(70+9.8)(0-16)}{4}\\\\=-319.2\ N

So, the required force is 319.2 N.

when an object falls to the ground, only the object moves down but the earth's motion is not noticeable​.why?
vlada-n [284]
Both the object and earth pulls each other towards itself but since the mass and pulling force of objects are very small the pulling force of objects are negligible.
