Assuming that Albertine's mass is 60.0 kg , for what value of μk, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

\mu_k=0.101

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Albertine, m = 60 kg

It can be assumed, the spring constant of the spring, k = 95 N/m

Compression in the spring, x = 5 m

A glass sits 19.8 m from her outstretched foot, h = 19.8 m

When she just reach the glass without knocking it over, a force of friction will also act on it. Using the conservation of energy for the spring mass system such that,

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=\mu_k mgh

\mu_k=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mgh}

\mu_k=\dfrac{95\times (5)^2}{2\times 60\times 9.8\times 19.8}

\mu_k=0.101

So, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the waxed floor is 0.101. Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

First we define our variables

V0=29.4

a=-9.8

V=0

We have to find the maximum displacement , which I will define as X

We use formula v^2=v0^2+2aX

All we do is substitute our values

0=29.4^2-19.6X

29.4^2=19.6X

X=29.4^2/19.6=44.1

Consider a mechanical clutch that consists of two heavy disks that can engage or disengage. At the beginning disk 1 with mass m1
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

w = 4,786 rad / s ,  f = 0.76176 Hz

Explanation:

For this problem let's use the concept of angular momentum

       L = I w

The system is formed by the two discs, during the impact the system remains isolated, we have the forces are internal, this implies that the external torque is zero and the angular momentum is conserved

Initial Before sticking

      L₀ = 0 + I₂ w₂

Final after coupling

      L_{f} = (I₁ + I₂) w

The moments of inertia of a disk with an axis of rotation in its center are

      I = ½ M R²

How the moment is preserved

      L₀ = L_{f}

      I₂ w₂ = (I₁ + I₂) w

      w = w₂ I₂ / (I₁ + I₂)

Let's reduce the units to the SI System

      d₁ = 60 cm = 0.60 m

      d₂ = 40 cm = 0.40 m

      f₂ = 200 min-1 (1 min / 60 s) = 3.33 Hz

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

      w₂ = 2 π f₂

      w₂ = 2π 3.33

      w₂ = 20.94 rad / s

Let's replace

       w = w₂ (½ M₂ R₂²) / (½ M₁ R₁² + ½ M₂ R₂²)

       w = w₂ M₂ R₂² / (M₁ R₁² + M₂ R₂²)

Let's calculate

      w = 20.94 8 0.40² / (12 0.60² + 8 0.40²)

      w = 20.94 1.28 / 5.6

      w = 4,786 rad / s

Angular velocity and frequency are related.

      w = 2π f

      f = w / 2π

      f = 4.786 / 2π

      f = 0.76176 Hz

Question 1 (1 point)
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Travelled 18 km, they are 6 km from home.

Explanation:

12/2 (halfway) is 6km. So, 6 + 12 would be 18 km, total amount travelled. The total distance of the trip would be 24 km (12 km out, 12km back) if they travelled 12+6 (18km) then they only have 6 km more to go.

A string under a tension of 68 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 3.7 m at a speed of 16.53 m/s. The str
alekssr [168]

Answer:

F = 5253.7 N

Explanation:

As we know that tension force in the string will be equal to the centripetal force on the string

so we will have

T = \frac{mv^2}{L}

now we have

68 = \frac{m(16.53^2)}{3.7}

now we have

68 = 73.8 m

m = 0.92 kg

now when string length is 0.896 m and its speed is 71.5 m/s then we will have

F = \frac{mv^2}{r}

F = \frac{0.92(71.5^2)}{0.896}

F = 5253.7 N
