A box of bananas weighing 40.0 N rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surfa

ce is 0.40 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20.
(a) If no horizontal force is applied to the box and the box is at rest, how large is the friction force exerted on it?
(b) What is the magnitude of the friction force if a monkey applies a horizontal force of 6.0N to the box and the box is initially at rest?

Answer:

(a) = 0 N

(b) = 2.4 N

Explanation:

given

box of banana weight = 40.0 N

coefficient of static friction  μ = 0.40

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.20

a).  when no horizontal force is applied .

according to Newton 's third law of motion If there is no force applied to the box,so the frictional  force exerted is 0 N

b) magnitude of friction force

box and the box is initially at rest

    friction force =.Static friction coefficient × weight of the box

      friction force = 0.40 × 6

       friction force =  2.4 N

A car of mass 500kg travelling at 60m/s has it speed reduced to 40m/s by a constant breaking force over a distance of 200m. find
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Ek1 = 900000 [J]

Ek1 = 400000 [J]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must remember that kinetic energy is defined as the product of mass by velocity squared by a medium. Therefore using the following equation we have:

E_{k1}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v1^{2}

where:

m = mass = 500 [kg]

v1 = 60 [m/s]

So we have:

Ek1 = 0.5*500*(60^2)

Ek1 = 900000 [J]

and:

Ek2 = 0.5*500*(40^2)

Ek2 = 400000 [J]

A race car reaches the finish line and the driver slows down to come to a stop. If it takes the car 10 seconds to stop at a cons
boyakko [2]

Answer:

53.64 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

a = (v-u)/t............. Equation 1

Where a = acceleration of the car, v = final velocity of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, t = time.

make u the subject of the equation

u = v-at............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: a = -12 mph/s = -5.364 m/s², t = 10 seconds, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop)

Substitute these values into equation 2

u = 0-(-5.364×10)

u = 0+53.64

u = 53.64 m/s

What does Electromagnetic induction mean?
mina [271]

Answer:

<u>Electromagnetic introduction</u> is the production of an electromotive force (voltage) across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field.

  • <em><u>Step up transformers</u></em><u> is</u> a transformer in which the output (secondary) voltage is greater than its input (primary) voltage is called a step-up transformer. The step-up transformer decreases the output current for keeping the input and output power of the system equal.

  • <u><em>Step down transformer is </em></u><em>a transformer in which the output (secondary) voltage is less than its input (primary) voltage is called a step-down transformer. The number of turns on the primary of the transformer is greater than the turn on the secondary of the transformer.</em>

<em />

<u>The difference between them:</u>

A transformer is a static device which transfers a.c electrical power from one circuit to the other at the same frequency, but the voltage level is usually changed. For economical reasons, electric power is required to be transmitted at high voltage whereas it has to be utilized at low voltage from a safety point of view. This increase in voltage for transmission and decrease in voltage for utilization can only be achieved by using a step-up and step-down transformer.

Hopefully this helped.

The path of the sun on the celestial sphere is called.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Ecliptic

Explanation:

The path the sun, moon, and planets take across the sky as seen from Earth. It defines the plane of the Earth's orbit around the sun. The name "Ecliptic" comes from the fact that eclipses take place along this line.
