You observe someone pulling a block of mass 41 kg across a low-friction surface. While they pull a distance of 5 m in the direct

ion of motion, the speed of the block changes from 5 m/s to 6 m/s. Calculate the magnitude of the force exerted by the person on the block.

Answer: 45.1N

Explanation:

Answer: 45.1N

Explanation:

The work done in the block is equal to change in energy is the system. We then go ahead to calculate W with the given values of initial and final speed.

W= Ef - Ei

W= 1/2MVf² - 1/2MVi²

W= 1/2M (Vf² - Vi²)

W= 1/2 * 41 (6²-5²)

W= 1/2 * 41 * 11

W= 225.5J

We note the definition of work and solve for F.

Taking into cognizance the displacement we have been given in the question. We then have

F = W/x

F = 225.5/5

F = 45.1N

Answer:

45.1 N

Explanation:

Using Newton's Fundamental equation of Kinematics,

F = ma............. Equation 1

Where F = force exerted by the person on the block, m = mass of the block, a = acceleration of the block

We can look for the acceleration of the block by applying newton's equation of motion,

Using,

v² = u²+2as....................... Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

make a the subject of the equation

a = (v²-u²)/2s................... Equation 3

Given: v = 6 m/s, u = 5 m/s, s = 5 m

Substitute into equation 3

a = (6²-5²)/(2×5)

a = 11/10

a = 1.1 m/s²

Also Given: m = 41 kg

Substitute into equation 1

F = 41(1.1)

F = 45.1 N

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 7 m/s to 15 m/s in a period of 2 m. What is your acceleration?
likoan [24]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed) = (15 m/s - 7 m/s) = 8 m/s

time for the change = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Acceleration = (8 m/s) / (120 seconds)

Acceleration = 0.067 m/s²

The drawing shows a large cube (mass = 28.6 kg) being accelerated across a horizontal frictionless surface by a horizontal force
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

P= 454.11 N

Explanation:

Since P is the only horizontal force acting on the system, it can be defined as the product of the acceleration by the total mass of the system (both cubes).

P= (M+m)*a\\a = \frac{P}{28.6 +4.3}\\a = \frac{P}{32.9}

The friction force between both cubes (F) is defined as the normal force acting on the smaller cube multiplied by the coefficient of static friction. Since both cubes are subject to the same acceleration:

F = m * a*\mu \\F= 4.3*0.710*\frac{P}{32.9}\\F=3.053*\frac{P}{32.9}

In order for the small cube to not slide down, the friction force must equal the weight of the small cube:

3.053*\frac{P}{32.9} = 4.3 * g\\\\P = \frac{4.3*9.8*32.9}{3.053} \\P= 454.11 N

The smallest magnitude that P can have in order to keep the small cube from sliding downward is 454.11 N

What is another name for kidney stones?
Naddika [18.5K]

Another (slightly more technical) name for kidney stones is "renal calculus".

I know this because we have met many times, and we are old friends.
