In an experiment, a variable, position-dependent force F(x) is exerted on a block of mass 1.0kg that is moving on a horizontal s

urface. The frictional force between the block and the surface has a constant magnitude of Ff . In addition to the final velocity of the block, which of the following information would students need to test the hypothesis that the work done by the net force on the block is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the block as the block moves from x=0 to x=5m ?
(A) The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5 and the value of Ff.
(B) The function a(t) for the time interval of travel and the value of Ff.
(C) The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of Ff.
(D) The function a(t) for the time interval of travel, the time it takes the block to move 5 m, and the value of Ff.
(E) The block's initial velocity, the time it takes the block to move 5 m, and the value of Ff.

Answer: correct option is C

The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of Ff. 

Step-by-step explanation:

The total work done = P.E + K.E

K.E = 1/2mv^2

The speed V depends on the position:

0 < x < 5

Also, since work done = F × distance x

The workdone also depends on F(x)

The net force = 0 that is

F + fr = 0

Where fr = frictional force.

Therefore the best option for the hypothesis of work done will be;

The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of Ff.

Answer:

(C) The function F(x) for 0<x<5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of Ff

Step-by-step explanation:

From physics, we know that the work done by a force is given by the following integral:

Work=\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {F(x)} \, dx

Where F(x) is the net force function.

The net force is given by the sum of forces:

\Sigma F=ma

In this case there are only two forces we care about, F(x) and Ff, so the sum of forces will be:

F(x)-Ff=ma

In this case Ff is negative because it acts against the force F(x)

So our integral will now look like this:

\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {F(x)-Ff} \, dx = \int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {ma} \, dx

Now, we also know that the acceleration is defined to be:

a=\frac{dv}{dt}

so we can do the substitution:

\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {F(x)-Ff} \, dx = \int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {m\frac{dv}{dt}} \, dx

we also know that:

\frac{dx}{dt}=v

so we can substitute again and change the limits of integration of the right side of the equation, so we get:

\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} {F(x)-Ff} \, dx = \int\limits^{v_f}_{v_0} {mv} \, dv

so when solving the integral we get:

[F(x)-Ff](x_f-x_0)=\frac{mv_{f}^{2}}{2}-\frac{mv_{0}^{2}}{2}

the right hand side of the equation:

\frac{mv_{f}^{2}}{2}-\frac{mv_{0}^{2}}{2}

will be the difference of kinetic energy which proves the hypothesis.  

In this case, we know what the mass is, and the x-values. So besides the final velocity, we need to know the initial velocity, the force F(x) for 0<x<5 and the friction Ff, so the answer will be (C)

Sanji paid 25 for two scarves which were different prices when she got home she could not find the receipt she remember that one
laila [671]
Answer:

The answer is x = 14 the more expensive scarf

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 25

3 + y + y = 25 (x = 3 + y)

3 + 2y = 25

2y = 25 - 3

2y = 22

y = 22/2

y = 11

x = 3 + y

x = 3 + 11

x = 14 (the more expensive scarf)

(x,y) ; (14,11)

PLEASE HELP ASAP: TRIGONOMETRY
ratelena [41]

Recall that sine is the ratio of opposite over hypotenuse, so we say

sin(theta) = opposite/hypotenuse

If we have a triangle labeled as such in the diagram below, then we can use symbols to write sin(theta) = A/C

Similarly, cos(theta) = B/C since cosine is the ratio of adjacent over hypotenuse.

Then from here we use a bit of algebra to compute the left hand side of the given equation. The goal is to see if we can simplify it to 1.

\sin^2\left(\theta\right)+\cos^2\left(\theta\right)\\\\\left(\sin\left(\theta\right)\right)^2+\left(\cos\left(\theta\right)\right)^2\\\\\left(\frac{A}{C}\right)^2+\left(\frac{B}{C}\right)^2\\\\\frac{A^2}{C^2}+\frac{B^2}{C^2}\\\\\frac{A^2+B^2}{C^2}\\\\\frac{C^2}{C^2}\\\\1

So this shows that the left hand side is identically the same as the right hand side (both sides are 1), and it doesn't matter what you replace theta with. Theta can be any real number and the equation will always be true.

Note: if you're wondering how A^2+B^2 became C^2, it's because of the pythagorean theorem. So that's why this trig identity is often referred to as the pythagorean trig identity.

2x^2+8x=x-3x^2<br><br> I will mark brainiest
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

(0,-7/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2+8x=x-3x^2

2x^2+3x^2=x-8x

5x^2=-7x

5x^2+7x=0

x(5x+7)=0

x=0 or x=-7/5

solution set is (0,-7/5)
