A box is placed on a conveyor belt that moves with a constant speed of 1.05 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The box stops in 0.139 seconds, after moving 7.29cm (0.0729m) backwards relative to the belt.

Explanation:

As the box is initially at rest relative to the earth, it is moving backwards with a speed of 1.05m/s relative to the belt. Then, the frictional force acts on the box to make it stop relative to the belt. So, we first have to write the equations of motion of the box in each axis:

x: f_k=ma\implies a=\frac{f_k}{m} \\\\y: N-mg=0\implies N=mg

Since the frictional force f_k is equal to f_k=\mu_k N=\mu_k mg, then we have that the acceleration is:

a=\frac{\mu_k mg}{m}=\mu_k g

Now, from the definition of acceleration we get:

a=\frac{v-v_0}{t}\implies t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}

And, as the final velocity is zero because the box gets to a stop, we have:

t=-\frac{v_0}{a}=-\frac{v_0}{\mu_k g}

(Don't worry about the negative sign. It will disappear because the initial velocity is also negative, since we take the box initially moving backwards)

Then, plugging in the given values, we calculate the time:

t=-\frac{(-1.05m/s)}{0.770(9.81m/s^{2})}=0.139s

In words, the time the box takes to stop sliding relative to the belt is 0.139s.

The displacement of the box in this time, is given by the kinematics formula:

v^{2}=v_0^{2}+2ax\implies x=-\frac{v_0^{2}}{2\mu_kg}

Finally, we calculate the displacement:

x=-\frac{(1.05m/s)^{2} }{2(0.770)(9.81m/s^2)}=-0.0729m=-7.29cm

This means that the box moves 7.29cm backwards relative to the belt.

Suppose the sphere is electrically neutral. Is it attracted to
Elden [556K]

Answer:

No, it is not attracted.

Explanation:

If any sphere is electrically neutral it is not attracted. The materials which are attracted by magnet are called magnetic material whereas which are not attracted are called non magnetic material. Sphere made up of non magnetic materials such as glass, wood, paper will not attracted weather is kept near north pole or near south pole.

You want to lean your dad's ladder on a smooth wall. If the mass of ladder is 4.42 kg and coefficient
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

angle minimum   θ = 41.3º

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law in the condition of static equilibrium

    N - W = 0

    N = W

The rotational equilibrium condition, where we place the axis of rotation on the wall

We assume that counterclockwise rotations are positive

     fr (l sin θ) - N (l cos θ) + W (l/2 cos θ) = 0

     

the friction force formula is

     fr = μ N

     fr = μ W

we substitute

      μ m g l sin θ - m g l cos θ + mg l /2   cos θ = 0

      μ sin θ - cos θ + ½ cos θ= 0

         

       μ sin θ - ½ cos θ = 0

       sin θ / cos θ = 1/2 μ

       tan θ = 1/2 μ

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 / 2μ)

       θ = tan⁻¹ (1 (2 0.57))

      θ = 41.3º

A light bulb is rated at 25 w when operated at 110 v. how much charge enters (and leaves) the light bulb in 1.0 hour?
DedPeter [7]

According to the current, the charge is 818.18 coulombs.

We need to know about current to solve this problem. Current can be defined as the flow rate of charge through the medium. It can be determined as

I = Q / t

where I is current, Q is charge and t is time.

From the question above, we know that

P = 25 W

V = 110 V

h = 1 hour = 3600 second

Calculate the current

P = V . I

25 = 110 . I

I = 0.23 A

By substituting the given parameters, we can calculate the charge

I = Q / t

0.23 = Q / 3600

Q = 818.18 coulombs

Hence, the charge is 818.18 coulombs.
