A sled of mass m is being pulled horizontally by a constant horizontal force of magnitude F. The coefficient of kinetic friction

is mu_k. During time interval t, the sled moves a distance s, starting from rest.Find the average velocity vavg of the sled during that time interval.Express your answer in terms of the given quantities and, if necessary, appropriate constants. You may or may not use all of the given quantities.

Answer:

The average velocity of the sled is vavg = s/t.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The average velocity is calculated as the traveled distance over time:

vavg = Δx/Δt

Where:

vavg = average velocity.

Δx = traveled distance.

Δt = elapsed time.

We already know the traveled distance (s) and also know the time it takes the sled to travel that distance (t). Then, the average velocity can be calculated as follows:

vavg = s/t

Have a nice day!

A grapefruit falls from a tree and hits the ground .75 seconds later. How far did the grapefruit drop? What was its speed?
Ivanshal [37]
1) The grapefruit is in free fall, so it moves by uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration g=9.81 m/s^2. Calling h its height at t=0, the height at time t is given by
h(t)=h- \frac{1}{2}gt^2
We are told thatn when t=0.75 s the grapefruit hits the ground, so h(0.75 s)=0. If we substitute these data into the equation, we can find the initial height h of the grapefruit:
0=h- \frac{1}{2}gt^2
h= \frac{1}{2}gt^2= \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(0.75 s)^2=2.76 m

2) The speed of the grapefruit at time t is given by
v(t)=v_0 +gt
where v_0=0 is the initial speed of the grapefruit. Substituting t=0.75 s, we find the speed when the grapefruit hits the ground:
v(0.75 s)=gt=(9.81 m/s^2)(0.75 s)=7.36 m/s

A stone falls freely from rest. How far does it fall in the first 10 seconds
jekas [21]
Presuming that air resistance can be ignored and we are saying that it accelerates due to gravity then we can form an equation using the formula s=ut+1/2at²
u=0
t=10
a=9.8
s=0*10+1/2*9.8*10²
s=490m
