Answer:

Acceleration a ≤ 3 m/s^2

the greatest acceleration that the truck can have without losing its load is 3 m/s^2

Explanation:

For the truck to accelerate without losing its load.

Acceleration force of truck must be less than or equal to the maximum friction force between the truck bed and the load.

Fa ≤ F(friction)

But;

Fa = mass × acceleration

Fa = ma

ma ≤ F(friction)

a ≤ (F(friction))/m ......1

Given;

Fa = mass × acceleration

Fa = ma

mass m = 800 kg

F(friction) = 2400 N

Substituting the given values into equation 1;

a ≤ F(friction)/m

a ≤ 2400N/800kg

a ≤ 3 m/s^2

the greatest acceleration that the truck can have without losing its load is 3 m/s^2

Q. At what point in a waterfall do the drops of water contain the most kinetic energy ?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

2.When they reach the bottom of the fall

Explanation:

The potential energy of the waterfall is maximum at the maximum height and decreases with decrease in height. Based on the law of conservation of mechanical energy, as the potential energy of the water fall is decreasing with  decrease in height of the fall, its kinetic energy will be increasing and the kinetic energy will be maximum at zero height (bottom of the fall).

Thus, the correct option is "2" When they reach the bottom of the fall

Sammy feels an ocean breeze as he plays volleyball at the beach. Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the
DedPeter [7]

The heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises and the cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air. The correct answer is option A

There will be heat transfer from a region of higher temperature to the region of lower temperature. But in the case of land and sea breeze, the transfer of heat are the result of convectional current in nature. Because the land is a better absorber of heat and also has a lower specific heat capacity compare to sea, during the day, the heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises.

The cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air.

Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the day ? It is because air over the beach heats up, rises and is replaced by ocean air.

Therefore, option A is correct

A child is riding in a child-restraint chair, securely fastened to the seat of a car. Assume the car has speed 47 km/h when it h
Elina [12.6K]

Answer: F = 1235 N

Explanation: Newton's Second Law of Motion describes the effect of mass and net force upon acceleration: F_{net}=m.a

Acceleration is the change of velocity in a period of time: a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

Velocity of the car is in km/h. Transforming it in m/s:

v=\frac{47.10^{3}}{36.10^{2}}

v = 13 m/s

At the moment the car decelerates, acceleration is

a=\frac{13}{0.2}

a = 65 m/s²

Then, force will be

F_{net}=19(65)

F_{net} = 1235 N

The horizontal net force the straps of the restraint chair exerted on the child to hold her is 1235 newtons.

A very long conducting cylinder (length L) of radius R(R<R and (b)r
mina [271]

Answer:

Explanation:

We have to find electric potential V at a distance r.

a) For r>R,

The electric field in the cylinder is given by

E.A equating it to the other electric field given by

б.A/ε₀

Here the area of cylinder is given by= 2*3.14*r*L

While for the outside, the area= 2*3.14*R*L

Equating both, we get

E= бR/rε₀

Now,

The potential difference is given as:

ΔV= -бR/rε₀ and integrating right side with respect to dr under limits r and R.

Where ΔV= V₀-V

So solving we get

V₀=V-бR/ε₀ln (r/R)

b) For r<R i.e. inside the cylinder

There will be no electric field produced as E=0

So ultimately Vin= V

c) V=0 at r= infinity.
