A block with mass m is pulled horizontally with a force F_pull leading to an acceleration a along a rough, flat surface.

Physics
1 answer:
Simora [160]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

\mu_k=\frac{a}{g}

Explanation:

The force of kinetic friction on the block is defined as:

F_k=\mu_kN

Where \mu_k is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface and N is the normal force, which is always perpendicular to the surface that the object contacts. So, according to the free body diagram of the block, we have:

N=mg\\F_k=F=ma

Replacing this in the first equation and solving for \mu_k:

ma=\mu_k(mg)\\\mu_k=\frac{a}{g}

A car traveling 90km/hr is 100 m behind a truck traveling 50km/hr. How long will it take the car to reach the truck?
AlexFokin [52]

The faster car behind is catching up/closing the gap/gaining on
the slow truck in front at the rate of (90 - 50) = 40 km/hr.

At that rate, it takes (100 m) / (40,000 m/hr) = 1/400 of an hour
to reach the truck.

(1/400 hour) x (3,600 seconds/hour) = 3600/400 = <em>9 seconds</em>, exactly

In a cyclotron, the orbital radius of protons with energy 300 keV is 16.0 cm . You are redesigning the cyclotron to be used inst
Archy [21]

Answer:

16 cm

Explanation:

For protons:

Energy, E = 300 keV

radius of orbit, r1 = 16 cm

the relation for the energy and velocity is given by

E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

So, v = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{m}}   .... (1)

Now,

r = \frac{mv}{Bq}

Substitute the value of v from equation (1), we get

r = \frac{\sqrt{2mE}}{Bq}

Let the radius of the alpha particle is r2.

For proton

So, r_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{2m_{1}E}}{Bq_{1}}    ... (2)

Where, m1 is the mass of proton, q1 is the charge of proton

For alpha particle

So, r_{2} = \frac{\sqrt{2m_{2}E}}{Bq_{2}}    ... (3)

Where, m2 is the mass of alpha particle, q2 is the charge of alpha particle

Divide equation (2) by equation (3), we get

\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}=\frac{q_{2}}{q_{1}}\times \sqrt{\frac{m_{1}}{m_{2}}}

q1 = q

q2 = 2q

m1 = m

m2 = 4m

By substituting the values

\frac{r_{1}}{r_{2}}=\frac{2q}}{q}}\times \sqrt{\frac{m}}{4m}}=1

So, r2 = r1 = 16 cm

Thus, the radius of the alpha particle is 16 cm.

What is the speed of an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of 100 mhz as it travels through a vacuum?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The speed of the wave with a frequency 100 mhz will be  3\times 10^{8}m/sec

Explanation:

We have given that frequency of light is 100 mhz

We have to find the speed of light in vaccuum

We know that all electromagnetic waves travels in vaccum wth the same speed as the speed of light

And we know that speed of light is equal to 3\times 10^{8}m/sec

So the speed of the wave with a frequency 100 mhz will be  3\times 10^{8}m/sec
