The force required is 319 N

Explanation:

The force of static friction is a force that acts an object on a surface, when this object is pushed by another force to put it in motion. The direction of the force of friction is opposite to the direction of the force of push, and its value increases as the force of push increases, up to a maximum value given by:

F_f = \mu W

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

W is the weight of the object

Therefore, in order to put the object in motion, the force applied must be greater than this value.

For the pile of leaves in this problem, we have:

\mu = 0.55 (coefficient of friction)

W=580 N (weight of the leaves)

Substituting, we find:

F=(0.55)(580)=319 N

A bullet with a mass ????b=13.5mb=13.5 g is fired into a block of wood at velocity ????b=253vb=253 m/s. The block is attached to
Lorico [155]

Answer:

450 grams

Explanation:

Given:

mass of the bullet, m = 13.5 g = 0.0135 kg

velocity of the bullet, v = 253 m/s

spring constant of the spring, k = 205 N/m

Compression of the spring, x = 35.0 cm = 0.35 m

Now, the kinetic energy of the moving system (bullet + board) will tend to move the spring

thus,

let velocity of the system, V

now, applying the concept of conservation of momentum, we have

mv = (M + m)V

where,

M is the mass of the block

thus,

V = mv/(M + m)

now,

the kinetic energy of the system = (1/2)(M + m)V²

or

the kinetic energy of the system = (1/2)(M + m)(mv/(m + M))²

Energy gained by the spring = (1/2)kx²

now,

equating both the energies, we get

(1/2)(M + m)(mv/(m + M))² = (1/2)kx²

or

(mv)²/(m + M) = kx²

on substituting the values, we get

(0.0135 × 253)²/(0.0135 + M) = 205 × (0.35)²

or

11.66/(0.0135 + M) = 25.1125

or

M = 0.450 kg = 450 grams

1. You serve a volleyball with a mass of 2.1kg. The ball leaves your
Darina [25.2K]

The kinetic energy is 945 joules.

Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has as a result of motion. It is defined as the effort required to accelerate a mass-determined body from rest to the indicated velocity.

The speed of an object or particle, which is a scalar quantity, is the size of the change in its location over time or the size of the change in its position per unit of time.

The mass of the volleyball is 2.1 kg.

The speed of the ball when the ball leaves the hand is 30 m/s.

m = 2.1 kg

v = 30 m/s

The kinetic energy of an object is given as:

KE = (1/2 ) × m × v²

KE = (1 / 2) × 2.1 kg × ( 30 m/s)²

KE = (1 / 2) × 2.1 kg × 30 m/s × 30 m/s

KE = 2.1 kg × 15 m/s × 30 m/s

KE = 945 J

You drive on Interstate 10 from San Antonio to Houston, half the time at 72 km/h and the other half at 98 km/h. On the way back
zimovet [89]

Answer: a. 85km/hr b.82.3km/hr

c. 84km/hr

Explanation: first let take the total time from San Antonio to Houston to be 2hr.

Half time 1hr was covered with speed of 72km/hr

Distance = speed*time=72km/hr *1hr

=72km

So too with the second half of 1hr covered with speed of 98km/hr

Distance = 98km

Total distance from Houston to San Antonio is 98+72 =170km

a. Average speed from San Antonio to Houston is

S1 =170/2

=85km/hr

b.half distance from Houston to San Antonio which is 170km/2

= 85km was covered with speed of 72km/hr first half, so time

t = dist/speed

t = 85/72 = 1hr 12 mins

Remaining 85 km covered with a speed of 98km/hr

Time = 85/98 = 0.88*60min

= 52 mins

Total time = 1hr +12mins +52mins

=2hr4mins= 124/60 hr

So average speed = distance/time

=170/124/60

Using reciprocal law

Average speed S2= 170*60/124

= 82.3km/hr

C. Average speed to and fro(entire tripe)

= (85+82.3)/2

=84km/hr

A diode, which allows current to flow in one direction only, consists of two types of semiconductors joined together.
Nata [24]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

A diode, which allows current to flow in one direction only, consists of two types of semiconductors joined together.

A semiconductor can be defined as a crystalline solid substance that has its conductivity lying between that of a metal and an insulator, due to the effects of temperature or an addition of an impurity. Semiconductors are classified into two main categories;

1. Extrinsic semiconductor.

2. Intrinsic semiconductor.

An intrinsic semiconductor is a crystalline solid substance that is in its purest form and having no impurities added to it. Examples of intrinsic semiconductor are Germanium and Silicon.

In an intrinsic semiconductor, the number of free electrons is equal to the number of holes. Also, in an intrinsic semiconductor the number of holes and free electrons is directly proportional to the temperature; as the temperature increases, the number of holes and free electrons increases and vice-versa.

In an intrinsic semiconductor, each free electrons (valence electrons) produces a covalent bond.
