Answer:

734.215N

Explanation:

First we calculate the angle that corresponds to a 5% slope using the Tan-1 function

\beta = tan-1(5%)=2.86

then we use the component that corresponds to the direction parallel to the road, additionally we must multiply by the gravity value to find the weight(g=9.81m/s^2)

Wx=M*g*sen(2.86)=1500kg*9.81*sen(2.86)=734.215N

Answer:

733.47 N

Explanation:

For 5% grade, the elevation of the road is

tanθ = 5/100

θ = tan⁻¹0.05 = 2.86°. Which is the angle of elevation of the road.

The component of the weight parallel to the road is thus mgsinθ = 1500 kg × 9.8 m/s²sin2.86° = 733.47 N

A mother and her 35.0 -kg child are riding an escalator to the third level of a shopping mall. If the child's gravitational pote
notka56 [123]

The increase in potential energy of his mother if her mass is 56.0 kg will be 6031.97 J.

<h3>What is gravitational potential energy?</h3>

The energy that an item has due to its location in a gravitational field is known as gravitational potential energy.

The potential energy increases by 3773 J

PE₂-PE₁=mg(h₂-h₁)

3773 J = 35.0 × 9.81 × (h₂-h₁)

(h₂-h₁) = 10.98

Case 2 ;

ΔPE =?

ΔPE=mg(h₂-h₁)

ΔPE=56.0 × 9.81 ×10.98

ΔPE=6031.97 J.

Hence, the increase in potential energy of his mother if her mass is 56.0 kg will be 6031.97 J.

A 1200.0-kg car is traveling at 19m/s. The driver suddenly slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. The coefficient of kinetic f
Alja [10]
<h2>Answer</h2>

option D)

2.4 seconds

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Given in the question,

mass of car = 1200kg

speed of car = 19m/s

Force due to direction of travel

F = ma

  = 12000(a)

Force to due frictional force in reverse direction

-F = mg(friction coefficient)

   = -12000(9.81)(0.8)

<h2>-mg(friction coefficient) = ma  </h2>

(cancelling mass from both side of equation)

g(0.8) = a

(9.81)(0.8) = a

a = 7.848 m/s²

<h2>Use Newton Law of motion</h2><h3>vf - vo = a • t</h3>

where vf = final velocity

          vo = initial velocity

          a = acceleration

           t = time

0 - 19 = 7.8(t)

t = 19/7.8

  = 2.436 s

  ≈ 2.4s
