Answer:
0.130
Explanation:
From the given data, the coefficient of static friction for each trial are:
1. 0.053
2. 0.081
3. 0.118
4. 0.149
5. 0.180
6. 0.198
The sum of the coefficient of static friction = 0.053 + 0.081 + 0.118 + 0.149 + 0.180 + 0.198
= 0.779
So that;
the average coefficient of static friction =
=
= 0.12983
The average coefficient of static friction is 0.130
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello! To solve this problem we must be clear about the concept of energy conservation, and kinetic energy with the following sentence
The kinetic energy of the two cars (v = 1.2m / S) plus the kinetic energy of the third car (v = 3.5m / S) must be equal to the kinetic energy of the three cars together.
The kinetic energy is calculated by the following equation.
m= mass of the cars=26500kg
V=speed
E=kinetic energy
taking into account the above, the following equation is inferred
1= the cars are separated
2= the cars are togheter
E1=E2
where
m= mass of each car
V1= 1.2m/s
Va=3.5,m/S
m= mass of each car
V=speed (in m/s) of the three coupled cars after the first couples with the other two
Solving
the speed of the three coupled cars after the first couples with the other two is 2.245m/s
