Answer:

The speed is $7.07\times10^{4}\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of proton $v= 10^{5}\ m/s$

Final potential = 10 v

Initial potential = 5 V

We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=eV$

$v^2=\dfrac{2eV}{m}$

The speed of the particle is directly proportional to the potential.

$v^2\propto V$

Put the value into the formula

$(10^{5})\propto 10$ ....(I)

For 5 V,

$v^2\propto 5$ .....(II)

From equation (I) and (II)

$\dfrac{(10^{5})^2}{v^2}=\dfrac{10}{5}$

$v=70710.67\ m/s$

$v=7.07\times10^{4}\ m/s$

Hence, The speed is $7.07\times10^{4}\ m/s$

A crate rests on a flatbed truck which is initially traveling at 17.9 m/s on a level road. The driver applies the brakes and the

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

Explanation:

The minimum coefficient of friction required to keep the crate from sliding can be found as follows:

$-F_{f} + F = 0$

$-F_{f} + ma = 0$

$\mu mg = ma$

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

Where:

μ: is the coefficient of friction

m: is the mass of the crate

g: is the gravity

a: is the acceleration of the truck

The acceleration of the truck can be found by using the following equation:

$v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2ad$

$a = \frac{v_{f}^{2} - v_{0}^{2}}{2d}$

Where:

d: is the distance traveled = 46.1 m

$v_{f}$ : is the final speed of the truck = 0 (it stops)

$v_{0}$ : is the initial speed of the truck = 17.9 m/s

$a = \frac{-(17.9 m/s)^{2}}{2*46.1 m} = -3.48 m/s^{2}$

If we take the reference system on the crate, the force will be positive since the crate will feel the movement in the positive direction.

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

$\mu = \frac{3.48 m/s^{2}}{9.81 m/s^{2}}$

$\mu = 0.35$

Therefore, the minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

I hope it helps you!

A mass of M-kg rests on a frictionless ramp inclined at 30°. A string with a linear mass density of μ=0.025" kg/m" is attached t

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

44.3 m/s

Explanation:

a) Draw a free body diagram of the mass M. There are three forces:

Weight force mg pulling down,

Normal force N pushing perpendicular to the ramp,

and tension force T pulling parallel up the ramp.

Sum of forces in the parallel direction:

∑F = ma

T − Mg sin 30° = 0

T = Mg sin 30°

T = Mg / 2

Draw a free body diagram of the hanging mass m. There are two forces:

Weight force mg pulling down,

and tension force T pulling up.

Sum of forces in the vertical direction:

∑F = ma

T − mg = 0

T = mg

Substitute:

mg = Mg / 2

m = M / 2

M = 2m

b) Velocity of a standing wave in a string is:

v = √(T / μ)

T = mg, and m = 5 kg, so T = (5 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 49 N. Therefore:

v = √(49 N / 0.025 kg/m)

v = 44.3 m/s
