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

What will make two bar magnets repel each<br> other?
Kitty [74]
The arrows always start at the magnet's north pole and point towards its south pole. When two like-poles point together, the arrows from the two magnets point in OPPOSITE directions and the field lines cannot join up. So the magnets will push apart

A potentialiterence of 12 volts is induced across a straight wire 0.20 meters long as it is moved at a constant speed of 3.0 met
shtirl [24]

Strength of the magnetic field: 20 T

Explanation:

For a conductive wire moving perpendicular to a magnetic field, the electromotive force (voltage) induced in the wire due to electromagnetic induction is given by

\epsilon=BvL

where

B is the strength of the magnetic field

v is the speed of the wire

L is the length of the wire

For the wire in this problem, we have:

\epsilon=12 V (induced emf)

L = 0.20 m (length of the wire)

v = 3.0 m/s (speed)

Solving  for B, we find the strength of the magnetic field:

B=\frac{\epsilon}{vL}=\frac{12}{(0.20)(3.0)}=20 T

An 850 kg elevator is accelerating upwards at 3.0 m/s2. Calculate the tension in the cable.
sveta [45]

Answer:

10880N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of elevator, m=850 kg

Acceleration, a=3m/s^2

g=9.8m/s^2

We have to find the tension in the cable.

We know that

When elevator is accelerating upward then tension in the cable

T=m(a+g)

Using the formula

T=850(3+9.8)

T=10880N
