Two children push on heavy crate that rests on a basement floor. one pushes horizontally with a force of 150 N and the other pus

hes in the same direction with a force of 180 N. The crate remains stationary. Show that the force of friction between the crate the floor is 330 N.

The force of friction is 330 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

$sum F = ma$

where

$\sum F$ is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

For the crate in this problem, we have 3 forces acting on it:

- The force applied by the 1st child, $F_1 = 150 N$ forward

- The force applied by the 2nd child, $F_2 = 180 N$

- The force of friction, $F_f$ , acting backward

So the net force is

$\sum F = F_1 + F_2 - F_f$

We also know that the crate remains stationary, which means that its acceleration is zero:

a = 0

Therefore, we can rewrite Newton's second law as

$F_1 + F_2 - F_f = 0$

From which we find

$F_f = F_1+F_2 = 150 + 180 =330 N$

The blood pressure of human body is greater at the feet than at the brain. why?give reason

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Gravity stronger closer to the core of the earth

Explanation:

The gravity applied to the feet is stronger than to the upper part of the body for example the brain because of the distance it is between the body part and the core of the earth where the gravity force is pulling towards. Even though the difference between the gravity force between the brain and the feet is minimal it is still a greater force at the feet than at the brain

The initial kinetic energy imparted to a 0.020 kg bullet is 1200 J. (a) Assuming it

Lilit [14]

Answer:

(a) Power= 207.97 kW

(b) Range= 5768.6 meter

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of bullet, $m=0.02 kg$

Kinetic energy imparted, $K=1200 J$

Length of rifle barrel, $d=1 m$

(a)

Let the speed of bullet when it leaves the barrel is $v$ .

Kinetic energy, $K=\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m} }$

$=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1200}{0.02} }$

$=346.4m/s$

Initial speed of bullet, $u=0$

The average speed in the barrel, $v_a_v_g=\frac{u+v}{2}$

$=\frac{0+346.4}{2} \\=173.2 m/s$

Time taken by bullet to cross the barrel, $t=\frac{d}{v}$

$=\frac{1}{173.2}\\ =0.00577 second$

Power, $P_a_v_g=\frac{W}{t}$

$=\frac{1200}{0.00577} \\=207.97kW$

(b)

In projectile motion,

Maximum height, $H_m=\frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g} \\$

Range, $R=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}$

given that, $H_m=R$

then, $\frac{v^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\sin^2\theta=2\sin\theta\cos\theta\\\\\tan\theta=4\\\theta=\tan^-^14\\\theta=75.96^0\\R=\frac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\=\frac{346.4^2\times\sin(2\times75.96)}{9.8}\\5768.6 meter$

$GM_ST^2=4 \pi ^2R^3\Rightarrow R= \sqrt[3]{ \frac{GM_ST^2}{4 \pi ^2} }\\\\\\R= \sqrt[3]{ \frac{6.67\cdot 10^{-11} \frac{m^3}{kg\cdot s^2}\cdot2.0\cdot 10^{30}kg( 9.29\cdot 10^8s)^2}{4\cdot 3.14^2} } \approx 1.42\cdot 10^{12}m$
