Answer:\mu=0.48

Explanation:

Given

inclination \theta =31^{\circ}

Acceleration of object=0.99 m/s^2

Now using FBD

mg\sin \theta -f_r=ma

mg\sin \theta -\mu mg\cos \theta =ma

a=g\sin \theta -\mu g\cos \theta

0.99=5.04-\mu 8.4

\mu 8.4=4.057

\mu =0.48

You pick up a 3.4-kg can of paint from the ground and lift it to a height of 1.8 m. (a) how much work do you do on the can of pa
MariettaO [177]

(a) For the work-energy theorem, the work done to lift the can of paint is equal to the gravitational potential energy gained by it, therefore it is equal to

W=mg\Delta h

where m=3.4 kg is the mass of the can, g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration and \Delta h=1.8 m is the variation of height. Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

W=(3.4 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.8 m)=60.0 J


(b) In this case, the work done is zero. In fact, we know from its definition that the work done on an object is equal to the product between the force applied F and the displacement:

W=Fd

However, in this case there is no displacement, so d=0 and W=0, therefore the work done to hold the can stationary is zero.


(c) In this case, the work done is negative, because the work to lower the can back to the ground is done by the force of gravity, which pushes downward. Its value is given by the same formula used in part (a):

W=mg \Delta h=(3.4 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(-1.8 m)=-60.0 J

Waves begin to "feel bottom" when the depth of water is
LekaFEV [45]
I think the correct answer would be one half the wavelength. Waves would "feel bottom" when the water is at the depth of 0.5 of the wavelength. "Feel bottom" is a term used to describe that the depth of water affects the wave properties. Hope this answers the question.

ikadub [295]

Answers:

The transportation industry is no stranger to the manipulation of everyday physics. Cars and trains utilize the wheel, which provides a smooth, steady motion.

The ears hear sounds which occur through the movement of air molecules, and the chemistry that drives all of biology depends on the physics of energy and molecules. Every day, for example, plants absorb sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide, creating glucose and releasing oxygen as a byproduct.

A kite is 100m above the ground. if there are 200m of string out what is the angle between the string and the horizontal? (assum
jeka57 [31]

Answer :  The angle between the string and the horizontal is 30 degrees

Explanation:  Imagine this a a triangle where the length of the string (200m) is the hypotenuse and the height of the kite is the opposite side (100m) .

Let the angle between the string and the horizontal be theta.

Now  sin (Theta) = opposite side/hypotenuse

                             =  100/200 = 1/2

Therefore Theta = Sin ⁻¹ ( 1/2 )

Theta = 30 degrees
