Answer:

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.146

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of sled (m) = 18 kg

Horizontal force (F) = 30 N

FInal speed (v) = 2 m/s

Distance (s) = 8.5 m

Find:

Coefficient of kinetic friction.

Computation:

Initial speed (u) = 0 m/s

v² - u² = 2as

2(8.5)a = 2² - 0²

a = 0.2352 m/s²

Nweton's law of :

F (net) = ma

30N - μf = 18 (0.2352)

30 - 4.2336 = μ(mg)

25.7664 =  μ(18)(9.8)

μ = 0.146

Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.146

Given that the wavelengths of visible light range from 400 nm to 700 nm, what is the highest frequency of visible light? (ccc =
enot [183]

7.5 × 10¹⁴ Hz is the highest frequency of visible light when wavelengths of visible light range from 400 nm to 700 nm.

The distance a wave travels in one unit of time is known as the wave speed (v).Taking into account that the wave travels one wavelength in one interval,

v=λ/T

Given that T = 1/f, we can write the equation above as,

V = f λ

Given data:

Minimum wavelength of visible light = 400 nm = 4 × 10⁻⁷ m

Speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Frequency = c/λ = 3 × 10⁸ / 4 × 10⁻⁷

= 7.5 × 10¹⁴ Hz

A car is moving 5.82M/S when it accelerates at 2.35M/S^2for 3.25S. What is its final velocity?
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

vf=vi+at

vi=5.82 m/s

a=2.35 m/s2

t=3.25 s

vf=5.82+2.35*3.25

vf=5.82+7.64

vf=13.46

There are devices to put in a light socket that control the current through a lightbulb, thereby increasing its lifetime. Which
Dmitrij [34]

Answer: B

Explanation:

Limiting the maximum current through the bulb. This will help in preserving or improving the bulb's lifetime and also this won't have an effect on the brightness of the bulb as brightness is affected by the average value. Although brightness is a factor of current, reducing the maximum current won't have any bearing on the average current the bulb is getting.
