antsy andy tries to push his 6kg desk away from him and finds that it takes him 12 N of force to start the desk from rest and 8

N to keep it moving at constant velocity. what are the coefficients of static and kinetic friction?

4 0

Answer:

static coefficient = 0,203 & kinetic coefficient = 0,14

Explanation:

There are two (2) conditions, when the desk is about to move and when the desk is moving. In the attachements you can see the two free body diagram for each condition.

In the first condition, there is no movement and the force is 12 N, in the image we can see the total forces are equal to 0 and by the definition of the friction force we can get the static friction coefficient.

In the second condition there is movement in the direction of the force which is equal to 8 N, again by the definition of the friction force we can get the kinetic friction coefficient. Since the desk is moving with constant velocity there is not acceleration.

I believe the answer would be Kinetic Energy. Kinetic energy is defined as energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion. We weren’t given answer choices so I don’t have much to work with lol.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Q = 4.52 10¹⁷ J

Explanation:

Thermal energy can be calculated with  

      Q = m c_{e} ΔT

in this case it indicates that we approximate seawater to pure water with  

    c_{e} = 4186 J/ kg K  

with the density

    ρ = m / V  

    m = ρ V  

    V = L³  

we substitute  

   m = ρ L³  

   Q = ρ L3 c_{e} ΔT

calculate  

   Q = 1000 (3 103) 3 4186 4  

   Q = 4.52 10¹⁷ J

Calculate the centripetal force acting on a 925 kg car as it rounds an unbanked curve with a radius of 75 m at a speed of 22 m/s
igomit [66]
Since f=m(v^2/r),or fnet is equal to ma.

force = unknown
velocity=22m/s
radius=75m


f=m(v^2/r)
f=925(22^2/75)
f=5969.333N

A pickup truck starts from rest and maintains a constant acceleration a0. After a time t0, the truck is moving with speed 25 m/s
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

B v1= 12.5m/s

Explanation:

As the acceleration is constant and time taken is also same and distance covered is halfed so the speed will also be halfed.
