a box having a mass of 50 kg is dragged across a horizontal floor by means of a rope tied on the front of it. the coefficient of

friction between the box and the floor is .3. if the angle between the rope and the floor is 30 degrees, what force must be exerted on the rope to move the box with an acceleration of 2.5 m/second squared

Answer: 148.263 N

Explanation:

If we draw a free body diagram of the describes situation we will have the following:

Net force in x:

-F_{fr}+Fcos\theta=0 (1)

Where:

F_{fr}=\mu_{k}N is the friction force

F is the force exerted on the rope to move the box

\theta=30\° is the angle

Net force in y:

N+Fsin\theta-W=0 (2)

Where:

N is the Normal force

W=mg is the force due gravity on the box (its weight), being m=50 kg the mass of the box and g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity

Rewritting (2):

N+m a sin\theta-mg=0 (3)

Where a=2.5 m/s^{2}

N=m(g-a sin\theta) (4)

N=50 kg(9.8 m/s^{2}-(2.5 m/s^{2}) sin30\°) (5)

N=428 N (6) This is the value of the normal force

Rewritting (1):

-\mu_{k}N+Fcos\theta=0 (6)

Finding F:

F=\frac{\mu_{k}N}{cos 30\°} (7)

F=\frac{(0.3)(428 N)}{cos 30\°}

Finally:

F=148.263 N

Speed of 26.7 m/s in 3.06 s. How far had the car traveled by the time the final speed was achieved?
Alik [6]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

You can use this equation to find the distance :

     distance = velocity x time

     distance = (26.7)(3.06)

                    = 81.702 m

Rounding to 3 sig figs

     = 81.7 m

Hope this helps

2. A car accelerates uniformly from +10.0 m/s to +50.0 m/s over a distance of 225 m. How long did it take to go that distance? S
artcher [175]
Let's call the constant acceleration a.
At a time t, its speed will thus be v(t)=a*t+v0 where v0 is its initial speed, here 10 m/s. Hence v(t)=a*t+10.

From there we can deduce the position P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t+p0 where p0 is the initial position, here 0.

Hence P(t)=a*t^2/2+10t

Let's call T the time at which it's at 50 m/s, we know that P(T)=225m and that v(T)=50 m/s hence a*T+10=50 thus a=40/T and P(T)=(40/2+10)T=30T

Hence T=225/30=7.5

It took 7.5 seconds
