Answer:

v = 10.8 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The centripetal force experienced by the steel toolbox is provided by the friction between the toolbox and the bed of the truck.

Therefore,

\frac{mv^{2} }{r} = f--------------------------------(1)

Here,

v - speed of truck

m - mass of toolbox

r - radius of curve around which the truck is turning

f - frictional force

f \leq μmg

In order to obtain Vmax, frictional force must also be max

Thus,

f = μmg--------------------------------------------------(2)

Substitute (2) in (1)

\frac{mv^{2} }{r} =  μmg

v^{2} =   μgr

g - 9.8 m/s^{2}

The standard value of coefficient of static friction between steel and steel is

μ ≈ 0.7

Therefore,

v = 10.8 m/s^{2}

Kinetic energy and mass are ________ proportional.
omeli [17]

Answer:

The Kinetic energy and mass are _directly_ proportional.

Explanation:

We know that Kinetic Energy is basically termed as the capacity of a body to do work.

Kinetic energy is often used to associate with moving objects, therefore, K.E is normally termed as the energy of motion.

The formula of K.E of an object of mass and velocity is defined

K.E = 1/2mv²

From the formula, it is clear that K.E is directly proportional to its mass and also directly proportional to the square of its velocity.

For example,

If A toy plane with a mass of 10 kg is flying at 20 m/s. Its K.E will be:

  • m = 10 kg
  • v = 20 m/s

K.E = 1/2mv²

      = 1/2(10)(20)²

      = 1/2(10)(400)

       = 5(400)

      = 2000 J

Now, let suppose, if we double the mass of a toy plane i.e.

m = 20 kg

so

K.E = 1/2mv²

      = 1/2(20)(20)²

      = 1/2(20)(400)

      = 10(400)

      = 400 J

Therefore, the K.E is doubled when doubled the mass.

Therefore, the Kinetic energy and mass are _directly_ proportional.

A 2 N and an 8 N force pull on an object to the right and a 4 N force pulls on the same object to the left. If the object has a
Elden [556K]

Answer:

a = 12 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

ΣF = m*a

where:

ΣF = sum of forces acting on a body [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 0.5 [kg]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Let's take the direction of positive forces to the right and negative forces directed to the left

2 + 8 - 4 = 0.5*a

6 = 0.5*a

a = 12 [m/s²]

According to Newton’s first law of motion, when will an object at rest begin to move?
soldi70 [24.7K]

2. When an unbalanced force acts upon it

Think of a glass of milk resting on a table. The glass weighs a certain amount more due to the load it carries. It would be unaffected until and unbalanced force (such as a hand) carelessly knocks it over spilling the contents.

Hope this helps :)
