A girl exerts a horizontal force of 109 N on a crate with a mass of 31.2 kg. HINT (a) If the crate doesn't move, what's the magn

itude of the static friction force (in N)? 109 Correct: Your answer is correct. The static friction force is fs ≤ μsn. For an object with no acceleration at rest on a surface, fs equals the particular value required to keep the object at rest on the surface. N (b) What is the minimum possible value of the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor? (Assume the crate remains stationary.)

Answer:

(a) Magnitude of static friction force is 109 N

(b) Minimum possible value of static friction is 0.356

Solution:

As per the question;

Horizontal force exerted  by the girl, F = 109 N

Mass of the crate, m = 31.2 kg

Now,

(a) To calculate the magnitude of static friction force:

Since, the crate is at rest, the forces on the crate are balanced and thus the horizontal force is equal to the frictional force, f:

F = f = 109 N

(b) The maximum possible force of friction between the floor and the crate is given by:

f_{m} = \mu_{s}N

where

N = Normal reaction = mg

Thus

f_{m} = \mu_{s}mg

For the crate to remain at rest, The force exerted on the crate must be less than or equal to the maximum force of friction.

f\leq f_{m}

f \leq \mu_{s}mg

109 \leq \mu_{s}\times 31.2\times 9.8

\mu_{s}\geq 0.356

algol13

Answer:

He needs 1.53 seconds to stop the car.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car is 1500 kg

Speed of the car, v = 20.5 m/s

He will not push the car with a force greater than, F=2\times 10^4\ N

The impulse delivered to the object is given by the change in momentum as :

F\times t=mv\\\\t=\dfrac{mv}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{1500\times 20.5}{2\times 10^4}\\\\t=1.53\ s

So, he needs 1.53 seconds to stop the car. Hence, this is the required solution.

A diver can change his rotational inertia by drawing his arms andlegs close to his body in the tuck position. After he leaves th
NeX [460]

Answer:

3.14946 rad/s

Explanation:

I_i = Intial moment of inertia

I_f = Final moment of inertia

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity

\omega_f = Final angular velocity = \dfrac{2}{1.33}\times 2\pi\ rad/s

\dfrac{I_f}{I_i}=\dfrac{1}{3}

In this system the angular momentum is conserved

L_i=L_f\\\Rightarrow I_i\omega_i=I_f\omega_f\\\Rightarrow \omega_i=\dfrac{I_f\omega_f}{I_i}\\\Rightarrow \omega_i=\dfrac{1\times \dfrac{2}{1.33}\times 2\pi}{3}\\\Rightarrow \omega_i=3.14946\ rad/s

The angular velocity when the diver left the board is 3.14946 rad/s

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

A change in color

The formation of a precipitate

A clear liquid becoming cloudy

The formation of bubbles

The formation of smoke

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as the conversion of reactant into product. The process in which one or more than one substance is converted into one or many different substances.

There are some indications which can provide the evidence that chemical reaction has occurred.

A change in color of the substance, formation or smoke or bubbles. The formation of the precipitate and in case the substance becomes cloudy.

All these evidences show that chemical reaction has occurred.
