The rolling resistance for steel on steel is quite low; the coefficient of rolling friction is typically μr=0.002. Suppose a 180

,000 kg locomotive is rolling at 25 m/s on level rails. For the steps and strategies involved in solving a similar problem, you may view a Video Tutor Solution. Part A If the engineer disengages the engine, how much time will it take the locomotive to coast to a stop?

Answer:

t = 0.354 hours

Explanation:

given,

coefficient of rolling friction μr=0.002

mass of locomotive = 180,000 Kg

rolling speed = 25 m/s

The force of friction = μ mg

                                 = (.002) x (180000) x (9.8)

                                 = 3528 N

F = m  a

now,

m a =  3528 N

180000 x a = 3528

a = 0.0196 m/s²

Then apply

v = u + at  

0 = 25 - 0.0196 x t

t = 1275.51 sec

t = 1275.61/3600 hours

t = 0.354 hours

time taken by the locomotive to stop = t = 0.354 hours

Which component of weight is cause for S.H.M of bob simple pendulum
jeka57 [31]

Explanation:

The Simple Pendulum. A simple pendulum is defined to have a point mass, also known as the pendulum bob, which is suspended from a string of length L with negligible mass ((Figure)). Here, the only forces acting on the bob are the force of gravity (i.e., the weight of the bob) and tension from the string.

Allen and Jason are chucking a speaker around. On one particular throw, Allen throws the speaker, which is playing a pure tone o
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Doppler's effect of sound .

speaker is the source , Jason is the observer . Source is moving at 10 m /s , observer is moving at  6 m/s .

apparent frequency = f_o\times\frac{V+v_o}{ V-v_s}

V is velocity of sound , v₀ is velocity of observer and v_s is velocity of source and f_o is real frequency of source .

Here V = 340 m/s , v₀ is 6 m/s , v_s is 10 m/s . f_o = f

apparent frequency =  f\times \frac{340+6}{340-10}

= f\times \frac{346}{330}

So m = 346 , n = 330 .

Please help.. I'm desperate.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Newton's Second Law tells us that the more mass an object has, the more force is needed to move it. A larger rocket will need stronger forces (eg. more fuel) to make it accelerate. The space shuttles required seven pounds of fuel for every pound of payload they carry.

the gas in a balloon has P=100000 pa and v=0.0279 m^3. if the pressure increases to 120000 pa at constant temperature, what is t
mash [69]

Answer:

New volume of the baloon is 0.02325m^3

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to know the ideal gas law, which says:

p•V = n•R•T

p is pressure, V is volume, n is amount of substance (in moles), R is constant value and T is temperature.

Since it's stated that n and T are constant, and we know that R is a constant too, that means that p•V = constant value. Basically, that means that p1•V1 (pressure and volume before the pressure increase) equals to p2•V2 (pressure and volume after the pressure increase).

That means that:

100000 Pa • 0.0279 m^3 = 120000 Pa • V2. Next, V2= 100000•0.0279/120000. So, V2=0.02325m^3.
