A 49.6-kg crate rests on a level floor at a shipping dock. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are 0.584 and 0.399,
NISA [10]

Answer:

(a) Force must be grater than 283.87 N

(B) Force will be equal to 193.945 N      

Explanation:

We have given mass of the crate m = 49.6 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Coefficient of static friction \mu _s=0.584

Coefficient of kinetic friction \mu _k=0.399

(a) Static friction force is given by F_S=\mu _smg=0.584\times 49.6\times 9.8=283.8707N

So to just start the crate moving we have to apply more force than 283.87 N

(B) This force will be equal to kinetic friction force

We know that kinetic friction force is given by F_k=\mu _kmg=0.399\times 49.6\times 9.8=193.945N

How long will it take for a sound impulse to travel through a copper rod 25 kilometers long?
jekas [21]

By conducting exhaustive, high-intensity online research for about 15 seconds, I found a source that says the speed of sound in copper is 4600 m/s.  (You could easily have completed the same research project in about 1/3 of the time it took you to type and post the question here.)

Time it takes = (distance) / (speed)

Time = (25,000 meters) / (4600 m/s)

Time = (25 / 4.6) km-sec/km

<em>Time = 5.43 seconds </em>

At a playground, a child slides down a slide that makes a 42° angle with the horizontal direction. The coefficient of kinetic fr
kumpel [21]

Answer:

a = 5.1\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given,

The angle of the slide=42^\circ

The mass of the child is= m

coefficient of friction = 0.20

when she slides down now apply Newton's law

ma =mg \sin\theta - f

ma = mg\sin \theta -\mu mg \cos \theta

therefore the acceleration

a=g \sin\theta -\mu gcos\theta

a=g[\sin \theta -\mu \cos \theta]

a=9.8\times [\sin 42^\circ -0.2\times \cos 42^\circ]

a = 5.1\ m/s^2

hence, the magnitude of acceleration during her sliding is equal to  a = 5.1\ m/s^2

If a conducting loop of radius 10 cm is onboard an instrument on Jupiter at 45 degree latitude, and is rotating with a frequency
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

a)  fem = - 2.1514 10⁻⁴ V,  b) I = - 64.0 10⁻³ A, c)    P = 1.38  10⁻⁶ W

Explanation:

This exercise is about Faraday's law

         fem = - \frac{ d \Phi_B}{dt}

where the magnetic flux is

        Ф = B x A

the bold are vectors

        A = π r²

we assume that the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the area is zero

         fem = - B π 2r dr/dt = - 2π B r v

linear and angular velocity are related

        v = w r

        w = 2π f

        v = 2π f r

we substitute

        fem = - 2π B r (2π f r)

        fem = -4π² B f r²

For the magnetic field of Jupiter we use the equatorial field B = 428 10⁻⁶T

we reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

       f = 2 rev / s (2π rad / 1 rev) = 4π Hz

we calculate

       fem = - 4π² 428 10⁻⁶ 4π 0.10²

       fem = - 16π³ 428 10⁻⁶ 0.010

       fem = - 2.1514 10⁻⁴ V

for the current let's use Ohm's law

        V = I R

        I = V / R

         I = -2.1514 10⁻⁴ / 0.00336

         I = - 64.0 10⁻³ A

Electric power is

        P = V I

        P = 2.1514 10⁻⁴ 64.0 10⁻³

        P = 1.38  10⁻⁶ W
