The kinetic friction force between a 60.0-kg object and a horizontal surface is 50.0 N. If the initial speed of the object is 25

.0 m/s, use energy concepts to calculate the distance it will slide before coming to a stop. Show all your work starting with the most fundamental concepts/equations. That is, I have to know where your equations CAME FROM (and you know where they came from).

Answer:

375 m.

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done by the frictional force = Kinetic energy of the object

F×d = 1/2m(v²-u²)..................... Equation 1

Where F = Force of friction, d = distance it slide before coming to rest, m = mass of the object, u = initial speed of the object, v = final speed of the object.

Make d the subject of the equation.

d = 1/2m(v²-u²)/F.................. Equation 2

Given: m = 60.0 kg, v = 0 m/s(coming to rest), u = 25 m/s, F = -50 N.

Note: If is negative because it tends to oppose the motion of the object.

Substitute into equation 2

d = 1/2(60)(0²-25²)/-50

d = 30(-625)/-50

d = -18750/-50

d = 375 m.

Hence the it will slide before coming to rest = 375 m

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 45.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Torque on the rocket will be 1.11475 N -m

Explanation:

We have given that muscles generate a force of 45.5 N

So force F = 45.5 N

This force acts on the is acting on the effective lever arm of 2.45 cm

So length of the lever arm d = 2.45 cm = 0.0245 m

We have to find torque

We know that torque is given by \tau =F\times d=45.5\times 0.0245=1.11475N-m

So torque on the rocket will be 1.11475 N -m

Prob. 3: Manifestation of quantum phenomena (total 25 points) (a)-(e) 5 points each.
TEA [102]

Answer:

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus)

Explanation:

This problem asks for some experimental explanations of various quantum phenomena.

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

In the classical explanation all states or energies are allowed, therefore when emitting energy (photons) there should be a continuum, this is not observed

In the correct quantum explanation only some states are allowed, therefore the emission must be discrete, which is observed in the emission or absorption of molecules and atoms

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

The incorrect classical explanation that if the minimum energy was zero the electrons cannot rotate around the nuclei and the atom collapses, this does not happen

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams, which is evidence of the existence of two discrete states that we call spin, remember that a free electron beam has zero angular momentum.

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission that occurs when a photon passes through the emission zone, causing the atoms to have transitions and these emitted photons have the same initial photon location, the laser beam all photons are in phase and therefore it is coherent .

This is widely used for holographic and interference work

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus) leaves the atomic nucleus penetrating the barrier since its energy is lower than the nuclear barrier potential.
