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

A net force, the magnitude of which is 3800 N, accelerates a 1260-kg vehicle for 10.0 s. The vehicle travels 50.0 m during this
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

SEE EXPLANATION

Explanation:

p =  \frac{fd}{t}  \\ where \: \\p  = power \\  f = force \\ d = distance \\ and \: t = time \\  \\ p =  \frac{3800 \times 50}{10}  \\ p =  \frac{190000}{10}  \\ p = 19000w

What happens to the force of gravitational pull if we tripled the distance and one of the masses is doubled
kicyunya [14]
This depends on the original mass of the object having its mass doubled and the the original distance before the distance was tripled.

A motorcycle is capable of accelerating at 1.5 m/s 2. Starting from rest how far can it travel in 0.5 seconds?
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

the answer is 0 .75m

Explanation:

where are finding the distance the speed is given as well as the time..so you multiple the speed with the time thus you get the distance..i hope that's the answer..
