A 49.6-kg crate rests on a level floor at a shipping dock. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.584 and 0.399,
NISA [10]

Answer:

(a) Force must be grater than 283.87 N

(B) Force will be equal to 193.945 N      

Explanation:

We have given mass of the crate m = 49.6 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Coefficient of static friction \mu _s=0.584

Coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.399

(a) Static friction force is given by F_S=\mu _smg=0.584\times 49.6\times 9.8=283.8707N

So to just start the crate moving we have to apply more force than 283.87 N

(B) This force will be equal to kinetic friction force

We know that kinetic friction force is given by F_k=\mu _kmg=0.399\times 49.6\times 9.8=193.945N

A Michelson interferometer uses light from a sodium lamp. Sodium atoms emit light having wavelengths 589.0 nm and 589.6 nm. The
DIA [1.3K]

The distance mirror M2 must be moved so that one wavelength has produced one more new maxima than the other wavelength is;

<u><em>L = 57.88 mm</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

We are given;

Wavelength 1; λ₁ = 589 nm = 589 × 10⁻⁹ m

Wavelength 2; λ₂ = 589.6 nm = 589.6 × 10⁻⁹ m

We are told that L₁ = L₂. Thus, we will adopt L.

Formula for the number of bright fringe shift is;

m = 2L/λ

Thus;

For Wavelength 1;

m₁ = 2L/(589 × 10⁻⁹)

For wavelength 2;

m₂ = 2L/(589.6)

Now, we are told that one wavelength must have produced one more new maxima than the other wavelength. Thus;

m₁ - m₂ = 2

Plugging in the values of m₁ and m₂ gives;

(2L/589) - (2L/589.6) = 2

divide through by 2 to get;

L[(1/589) - (1/589.6)] = 1

L(1.728 × 10⁻⁶) = 1

L = 1/(1.728 × 10⁻⁶)

L = 578790.67 nm

L = 57.88 mm

it took 3.5 hours for a train to travel the distance between two cities at a velocity of 120 miles per hour. How many miles lie
Art [367]

Given:

Time: 3.5 hrs

Velocity: 120 miles/hr

Now Distance=  Speed × Time

Now Velocity and speed have the same magnitude. Velocity being a vector quantity has a definite direction. Whereas speed is a scalar quantity,it indicates only the magnitude an doesn't define any direction.

Hence Distance = Velocity x time

Distance = 3.5 × 120 = 420 miles

An athlete kicks a soccer ball that starts at rest so that it leaves their foot with a speed of 10m/s from the top o f a rectang
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a=500m/s^2

Explanation:

We need only to apply the definition of acceleration, which is:

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}

In our case the final velocity is v_f=10m/s, the initial velocity is v_i=0m/s since it departs from rest, the final time is t_f=0.02s and the initial time we are considering is t_i=0s

So for our values we have:

a=\frac{10m/s-0m/s}{0.02s-0s}=500m/s^2
