A crate having mass 50.0 kg falls horizontally off the back of the flatbed truck, which is traveling at 100 km/h. Find the value

of the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and crate if the crate slides 50 m on the road in coming to rest. The initial speed of the crate is the same as the truck, 100 km/h.

Answer:

\mu = 0.786

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the crate is

v_i = 100 km/h

v_i = 27.78 m/s

now finally the crate will come to rest

so we have

v_f = 0

now the deceleration due to frictional force is given as

a = -\mu g

distance moved by the crate before it will stop is given as

d = 50 m

so we will have

0 - 27.78^2 = 2(-\mu(9.81))50

\mu = 0.786

Two parallel plates are 1 cm apart and are connected to a 500 V source. What force will be exerted on a single electron half way
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 8*10^-15 N

Explanation: In order to calculate the force applied on an electron in the middle of the two planes at 500 V we know that,  F=q*E

The electric field between  the plates is given by:

E = ΔV/d = 500 V/0.01 m=5*10^3 N/C

the force applied to the electron is: F=e*E=8*10^-15 N
