An object is dropped at a height of 6 m from the ground. How fast is it moving just before it hits the ground?

Physics

3 0

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 6 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (9.8 m/s²) (6 m)

v ≈ 10.8 m/s

Round as needed.

The box is pushed to the right with a force of 40 Newtons and it just begins to move what is the maximum static frictional force
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The maximum static frictional force is 40N.

Explanation:

When an object of mass M is on a surface with a coefficient of static friction μ, there is a minimum force that you need to apply to the object in order to "break" the coefficient of static friction and be able to move the object (Called the threshold of motion, once the object is moving we have a coefficient of kinetic friction, which is smaller than the one for static friction).

This coefficient defines the maximum static friction force that we can have.

So if we apply a small force and we start to increase it, the static frictional force will be equal to our force until it reaches its maximum, and then we can move the object and now we will have frictional force.

In this case, we know that we apply a force of 40N and the object just starts to move.

Then we can assume that we are just at the point of transition between static frictional force and kinetic frictional force (the threshold of motion), thus, 40 N is the maximum of the static frictional force.

Two 110 kg bumper cars are moving toward each other in opposite directions. Car A is moving at 8 m/s and Car Z at –10 m/s when t
salantis [7]

Explanation:

Mass of bumper cars, m_1=m_2=110\ kg

Initial speed of car A, u_1=8\ m/s

Initial speed of car Z, u_2=-10\ m/s

Final speed of car A after the collision, v_1=-10\ m/s

We need to find the velocity of car Z after the collision. Let it is equal to v_2. Using the conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

110\times 8+110\times (-10)=110\times (-10)+110v_2

v_2=\dfrac{-1320}{110}\ m/s

v_2=-12\ m/s

So, the velocity of car Z after the collision is (-12 m/s). Hence, this is the required solution.
