The flatbed truck is traveling at the constant speed of 60 km/h up the 15‐percent grade when the 100‐kg crate which it carries i

s given a shove which imparts to it an initial relative velocity ˙ x = 3 m / s x˙=3 m/s toward the rear of the truck. If the crate slides a distance x = 2 m measured on the truck bed before coming to rest on the bed, compute the coefficient of kinetic friction μk between the crate and the truck bed.

Answer:

μ = 0.309

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction is defined as the ratio of two forces, friction force and the normal force acting on the object.

θ = arctan(15/100)= 8.531⁰

In the vertical direction:

N = mgcosθ = 100 *9.8 *cos(8.531) = 970N

law of conservation of energy implies

mgsinθ - μNx = 1/2m(v₂²-v₁²)

100*9.8*sin (8.531) - μ(970*2) = 1/2(100)(0²-3²)

150.6 - 1940μ = 450

- 1940μ = -600.6

μ = 0.309

Total amount of energy would remain constant according to law of conservation of energy. i.e., 50 Joules

In short, Your Answer would be Option C) <span>50 Joules because as energy converts from one form to another, it cannot be created or destroyed during the conversion.

Scilla [17]
   <span> The boiling point of water at sea level is 100 °C. At higher altitudes, the boiling point of water will be.....
a) higher, because the altitude is greater.
b) lower, because temperatures are lower.
c) the same, because water always boils at 100 °C.
d) higher, because there are fewer water molecules in the air.
==> e) lower, because the atmospheric pressure is lower.
--------------------------
Water boils at a lower temperature on top of a mountain because there is less air pressure on the molecules.

Calculate the electric potential energy in a capacitor that stores 4.0 10-10 C of charge at 250.0 V
Arada [10]
Q = C.v
v = Q/C
v = 4 × 10^(-10)/250
 = 4 × 10^(-10)/2.5 × 10^2
 = 1.6 × 10^(-12) volt
