Answer:

a) μs=0.34

b) μk=0.27

Explanation:

Given that

Mass , m = 21 kg

Force required to move the block ,F= 73 N

The force required to keep the block in motion ,F ' = 58 N

Coefficient of the static friction  :

The maximum value of the static friction force

fr= μs m g

At rest position

F=  fr

73 = μs x 21 x 10   (take g= 10 m/s²)

\mu_s=\dfrac{73}{210}

μs=0.34

Therefore the Coefficient of the static friction  will be 0.34.

Coefficient of the kinetic  friction  ;

Value of the kinetic friction force   ,fr= μk m g

F' = Fr

To move the block at constant speed

58 = μs x 21 x 10                 (take g= 10 m/s²)

\mu_k=\dfrac{58}{210}

μk=0.27

Therefore the Coefficient of the static friction  will be 0.27.

A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 1.4 ft/s,
Art [367]

Answer:

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s

Explanation:

given,

length of ladder = 10 ft

let x be the distance of the bottom and y be the distance of the top of ladder.

x² + y² = 100

differentiating with respect to time we get

2 x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0..............(1)

when x = 8 and y = 6 and when \dfrac{dx}{dt} = 1.4ft/s

from equation (1)

now,

16\times 1.4 + 12\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0

\dfrac{dy}{dt} = -\dfrac{5.6}{3}

let the angle between the ladders be θ

tan\theta = \dfrac{y}{x}

y = xtan θ

\dfrac{dy}{dt} =\dfrac{dy}{dt} tan\theta + x sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}

-\dfrac{5.6}{3} =1.4\times \dfrac{6}{8} + 8 (1+\dfrac{9}{16})\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}

\dfrac{25}{2} \dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =\dfrac{-17.5}{6}

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s

A motorcyclist travels with an average speed of 6 m/s . If the cyclist is going to a friend's house 36 m away , how much time wi
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

<h2>6 s</h2>

Explanation:

The time taken by the cyclist can be found by using the formula

t  = \frac{d}{v}  \\

v is the velocity

d is the distance

From the question we have

t =  \frac{36}{6}  \\  = 6

We have the final answer as

<h3>6 s</h3>
