Answer:
<h2>0.39m/s^2</h2>
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
mass m= 300kg
applied force F= 1000N
coefficient of friction μ= 0.3
Step two:
The net force Fn= applied force-friction force
Fn=F-F1
F1= limiting force
F1=μ*m*g
F1=0.3*300*9.81
F1=882.9N
the Net force= 1000-882.9
Fn=117.1N
Step three:
we know that
F=ma
Fnet=ma
a= Fnet/m
a=117.1/300
a=0.39m/s^2
Answer:
Potential energy turn to kinetic energy
Explanation:
Answer:
The length of her shadow is changing at the rate -2 m/s
Explanation:
Let the height oh the street light, h = 22 ft
Let the height of the woman, w = 5.5 ft
Horizontal distance to the street light = l
length of shadow = x
h/w = (l + x)/x
22/5.5 = (l + x)/x
4x = l + x
3x = l
x = 1/3 l
taking the derivative with respect to t of both sides
dx/dt = 1/3 dl/dt
dl/dt = -6 ft/sec ( since the woman is walking towards the street light, the value of l is decreasing with time)
dx/dt = 1/3 * (-6)
dx/dt = -2 m/s
