What force must be applied to push a carton weighing 245 N up a 15.0° incline, if the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.340?

Assume the force is applied parallel to the incline and the velocity is constant.

Answer:

<h3>143.815 N</h3>

Explanation:

when a person is pushing a carton in an inclined plane there is two forces acting against  the applied force,

  • component of gravity or mgsinθ
  • friction or μmgcosθ

the carton goes up ( constant velocity ) only if sum of these two forces becomes equal to applied force

from the question,

weight of the carton,mg = 245 N

angle of incline,θ = 15°

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.340

∵ the applied force, F = mgsinθ + μmgcosθ

                                    = mg ( sinθ + μcosθ)

                                    = 245 ( sin 15° + 0.340 cos 15°)

                                    = 245 ( 0.259 + 0. 328)

                                    = 143.815 N

The rate at which light energy is radiated from a source is measured in which of the following units?
Over [174]
The correct option is D.
Lumen is used to quantify the amount of total light energy that a source is putting out in all direction, thus, it refers to luminous output of a light source. Initial lumen refers to the luminosity of a light when it was first turned on; the luminosity is highest at this point.

A box-shaped metal can has dimensions 5 in. by 19 in. by 4 in. high. All of the air inside the can is removed with a vacuum pump
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The force is  F  =  1397 lb

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The length of the box is  l  =  19 \ in

    The width of the box is  w =  5 \ in

     The height is  h  =  4\ in

The pressure experience on one of the sides is mathematically represented as

     p = \frac{F}{A}

Where A is the area of the box which is mathematically evaluated as

    A =  l * w

substituting values

     A =  5 *19

      A = 95 \ in^2

This pressure is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure which has a constant value of  p = 14.7 pi

This implies that

        14.7  = \frac{F}{95}

=>   F  =  14.7 *95

=>    F  =  1397 lb

How could you create an investigation to determine the pitch of this wave?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

In order to make a sound wave have a higher pitch you increase the frequency.

In order to increase the volume of a sound wave, you have to increase the amplitude.

Hope this helps!

4) Write down the transformation of energy in torch light.<br>​
Elenna [48]

Answer:

<u>The transformation of energy in a torch light is as follows:</u>

1) When the torch is turned ON, the chemical energy in the batteries is converted into electrical energy.

2) The electrical energy is converted into heat and light energy. (We feel the torch to be hot after some time and we can see the light energy)

Hope this helped!
