A box is placed on a conveyor belt that moves with a constant speed of 1.05 m/s. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The box stops in 0.139 seconds, after moving 7.29cm (0.0729m) backwards relative to the belt.

Explanation:

As the box is initially at rest relative to the earth, it is moving backwards with a speed of 1.05m/s relative to the belt. Then, the frictional force acts on the box to make it stop relative to the belt. So, we first have to write the equations of motion of the box in each axis:

x: f_k=ma\implies a=\frac{f_k}{m} \\\\y: N-mg=0\implies N=mg

Since the frictional force f_k is equal to f_k=\mu_k N=\mu_k mg, then we have that the acceleration is:

a=\frac{\mu_k mg}{m}=\mu_k g

Now, from the definition of acceleration we get:

a=\frac{v-v_0}{t}\implies t=\frac{v-v_0}{a}

And, as the final velocity is zero because the box gets to a stop, we have:

t=-\frac{v_0}{a}=-\frac{v_0}{\mu_k g}

(Don't worry about the negative sign. It will disappear because the initial velocity is also negative, since we take the box initially moving backwards)

Then, plugging in the given values, we calculate the time:

t=-\frac{(-1.05m/s)}{0.770(9.81m/s^{2})}=0.139s

In words, the time the box takes to stop sliding relative to the belt is 0.139s.

The displacement of the box in this time, is given by the kinematics formula:

v^{2}=v_0^{2}+2ax\implies x=-\frac{v_0^{2}}{2\mu_kg}

Finally, we calculate the displacement:

x=-\frac{(1.05m/s)^{2} }{2(0.770)(9.81m/s^2)}=-0.0729m=-7.29cm

This means that the box moves 7.29cm backwards relative to the belt.

What changes would result in a decrease in the gravitational force between two objects? Check all that apply.
REY [17]

<em>I'm sorry, it says check all that apply, however there are no choices given. You should edit, and add the multiple choice answers.</em>

My Answer:

Well if the masses of two objects were both decreased, it would result in a decrease in the gravitational force. So I guess the two objects masses would need to be decreased.

Answer:

v = 5.15 m/s

Explanation:

At constant velocity, the cable tension will equal the car weight of 984(9.81) = 9,653 N

As the cable tension is less than this value, the car must be accelerating downward.

7730 = 984(9.81 - a)

a = 1.95 m/s²

kinematic equations s = ut + ½at² and v = u + at

-5.00 = u(4.00) + ½(-1.95)4.00²

u = 2.65 m/s    the car's initial velocity was upward at 2.65 m/s

v = 2.65 + (-1.95)(4.00)

v = -5.15 m/s

What are generated at transform fault plate boundaries?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: The Earth's layer, which has the covering and layer, is made of a progression of things, or structural plates, that creep after some time. Along these lines, at intersecting limits, mainland outside is made and maritime covering is devastated. 2 plates slippy past each other structures a redesign plate limit.
