A truck enters a typical runaway lane with a speed of 57.5 mph ( 25.7 m/s ). Use the work-energy theorem to find the minimum coe

fficient of kinetic friction between the truck and the lane to be able to stop the truck.

Answer:

Work done by friction force= change in total Energy

so,

W= (friction force)*d= (mu*N)*(35)

so,

mu*m*g*35= 1/2*m*v^2

so,

mu= 0.5*(25.7)^2/(9.81*35)

solving it,

mu = 0.9618

Answer:

I. They come from sources across space

II. They travel in a straight line from their source.

III. They can be reflected by some types of material.

Explanation:

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

The following statements about light waves are true;

I. They come from sources across space.

II. They travel in a straight line from their source.

III. They can be reflected by some types of material. reflection occurs when a ray of light or wavefronts bounces off a smooth surface. Thus, when light hit a surface, it bounces back to the medium from which it was originally propagated with.

However, light waves cannot travel through all type of material except materials that are transparent or translucent but not opaque.

You throw a rock upwards; it rises and then falls back down. We know that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/sec2 near the
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Acceleration = 9.8 m/sec2

Explanation:

We know that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/sec2 near the surface of earth.

Remember  that the gravity is always affecting everything on earth at every instant, even the rock at the very top of it's trajectory. It doesn't mind if the velocity is zero for an instant or if there's air resistance, the gravity force is there, and always aims towards the center of the earth.

So for all the trajectory of the rock, gravity is 9.8 m/sec2

An woman whose weight is 804 N stands on a long horizontal plank of wood 1.55 m from one end. The plank is uniform and is suppor
meriva

Answer:

Explanation:

There will be reaction force by  each vertical post on horizontal plank . Let it be R₁ and R₂ . R₁ is reaction force by the post nearer to woman

Taking torque of all forces about the end far away from the woman

Torque by reaction force = R₁ x 5.5

= 5.5 R₁ upwards

Torque by weight of woman in opposite direction , downwards

= - 804 x ( 5.5 - 1.55 )

= - 3175.8

Torque by weight of the plank in opposite direction , downwards .

= - 27 x 5.5 / 2

= - 74.25

Torque by R₂ will be zero as it passes through the point about which torque is being taken .

Total torque

= 5.5 R₁ - - 3175.8 - - 74.25  = 0 ( For equilibrium )

5.5 R₁ = 3250

R₁ = 590.9 N .
