Answer:

f = 8.7 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of the box, W = 100 N

It is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees.

The coefficient of friction, $\mu_s=0.1$

We need to find the magnitude of the static frictional force acting on the box. Let f is the frictional force. It is given by :

$f=\mu_s\times N$

N is the normal force

$f=\mu_s\times mg\ cos\theta$

$f=0.1\times 100\times \ cos(30)$

f = 8.66 N

or

f = 8.7 N

So, the the static frictional force acting on the box is 8.7 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Jumping up before the elevator hits. After the cable snaps and the safety system fails, an elevator cab free-falls from a height

butalik [34]

Answer:

a) I = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

b) F = -451,520N

Explanation:

part a.

we know that:

I = $P_f-P_i$

where I is the impulse, $P_f$ the final momentum and $P_i$ the initial momentum.

so:

I = $MV_f-MV_i$

where M is the mass, $V_f$ the final velocity and $V_i$ the initial velocity.

Therefore, we have to find the initial velocity or the velocity of the passenger just before the collition.

now, we will use the law of the conservation of energy:

$E_i=E_f$

so:

mgh = $\frac{1}{2}MV_i^2$

where g is the gravity and h the altitude. So, replacing values, we get:

(85kg)(9.8m/s^2)(36m)= $\frac{1}{2}(85kg)V_i^2$

solving for $V_i$ :

$V_i = 26.56m/s$

Then, replacing in the initial equation:

I = $MV_f-MV_i$

I = $(85kg)(0m/s)-(85kg)(26.56m/s)$

I = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

Then, the impulse is -2257.6 Kg*m/s, it is negative because it is upwards.

part b.

we know that:

Ft = I

where F is the average force, t is the time and I is the impulse. So, replacing values, we get:

F(0,005s) = -2257.6 Kg*m/s

solving for F:

F = -451520N

Finally, the force is -451,520N, it is negative because it is upwards.

Two resistors R1 = 3 Ω and R2 = 6 Ω are connected in parallel. What is the net resistance in the circuit?

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

"2Ω" is the net resistance in the circuit.

Explanation:

The given resistors are:

R1 = 3Ω

R2 = 6Ω

The net resistance will be:

⇒ $\frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $\frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{6}$

On taking L.C.M, we get

⇒ $\frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{2+1}{6}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{3}{6}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{R_{net}} =\frac{1}{2}$

On applying cross-multiplication, we get

⇒ $R_{net}=2 \Omega$
