A 50.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and the

coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.200. What is the friction force on the box if (a) a horizontal 140-N push is applied to it?

Answer:

98N and 147N

Explanation:

We have the following information:

m=50kg\\\mu_s =0.4\\\mu_k = 0.2\\F=140N

We can find the static fricton force as follow,

F=\mu_s * N

Where N is the normal force (mg)

F=0.3*50*9.8\\F=147N

Static friction force at 147N is greater than the force applied hence body does not move.

F=\mu_k N = 0.2*50*9.8= 98N

netineya [11]

Answer:

Magnesium and Bromine

Explanation:

I just took the test, and Magnesium has 7 electrons and Bromine has 2 valance electrons making the transfer a lot easier. In the first choice, Krypton already has 8 valance electrons therefore it cannot transfer or accept any more which rules it out as a possible answer. Calcium has 2 valance electrons and Potassium has 1 meaning it couldn't make a full shell of 8 and cannot make a ionic bond. Iodine has 7 electrons as well as Chlorine which wouldn't be the answer because it would have more than 8 valance electrons.

vA 61.2-kg circus performer is fired from a cannon that is elevated at an angle of 57.8 ° above the horizontal. The cannon uses
dsp73

Answer:

The effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.

Explanation:

First, we can use kinematics to obtain the initial velocity of the performer. Since we know the angle at which he was launched, the horizontal distance and the time in which it's traveled, we can calculate the speed by:

v_0_x=\frac{x}{t}\\ \\v_0\cos\theta=\frac{x}{t}\\\\v_0=\frac{x}{t\cos\theta}

(This is correct because the horizontal motion has acceleration zero). Then:

v_0=\frac{20.8m}{(2.60s)\cos57.8\°}\\\\v_0=15.0m/s

Now, we can use energy to obtain the spring constant of the firing mechanism. By the conservation of mechanical energy, considering the instant in which the elastic band is at its maximum stretch as t=0, and the instant in which the performer flies free of the bands as final time, we have:

E_0=E_f\\\\U_e=K\\\\\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\\implies k=\frac{mv^2}{x^2}

Then, plugging in the given values, we obtain:

k=\frac{(61.2kg)(15.0m/s)^2}{(2.76m)^2}\\\\k=1808N/m

Finally, the effective spring constant of the firing mechanism is 1808N/m.
