A person pushes a 50kg box to the right with 100N of force at a constant velocity of 5m/s. Calculate the coefficient of friction
Anna11 [10]
The weight of the box is 50x9.8 = 490 N. The force of friction is 100N. F= μΝ so coefficient = 100/490 = 0.20

A 265 g mass attached to a horizontal spring oscillates at a frequency of 3.40 Hz . At t =0s, the mass is at x= 6.20 cm and has
lara [203]

Answer:

The phase constant is 7.25 degree  

Explanation:

given data

mass = 265 g

frequency = 3.40 Hz

time t = 0 s

x = 6.20 cm

vx = - 35.0 cm/s

solution

as phase constant is express as

y = A cosФ ..............1

here A is amplitude that is = \sqrt{(\frac{v_x}{\omega })^2+y^2 }  = \sqrt{(\frac{35}{2\times \pi  \times y})^2+6.2^2 }  =  6.25 cm

put value in equation 1

6.20 = 6.25 cosФ

cosФ  = 0.992

Ф = 7.25 degree  

so the phase constant is 7.25 degree

A container is filled with an ideal diatomic gas to a pressure and volume of P1 and V1, respectively. The gas is then warmed in
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The  change is as follows

P₁ V₁ to 3P₁, V₁ ( constt volume )  --- first process

3P₁,V₁ to 3P₁ , 5V₁ ( constt pressure ) ---- second process

In the first process Temperature must have been increased 3 times . So if initial temperature is T₁ then final temperature will be 3 T₁

P₁V₁ = n R T₁ , n is no of moles of gas enclosed.

nRT₁ = P₁V₁

Heat added at constant volume  = n Cv ( 3T₁ - T₁)

= n x 5/3 R X 2T₁ ( for diatomic gas Cv = 5/3 R)

= 10/3 x nRT₁

= 10/3x P₁V₁

In the second process,  Temperature must have been increased 5 times . So if initial temperature is 3T₁ then final temperature will be 15 T₁

Heat added at constant pressure in second case  

= n Cp ( 15T₁ - 3T₁)

= n x 7/3 R X 12T₁ ( For diatomic gas Cp = 7/3 R)

= 28 x nRT₁

= 28 P₁V₁

A 45-mH ideal inductor is connected in series with a 60-Ω resistor through an ideal 15-V DC power supply and an open switch. If
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Complete question:

A 45-mH ideal inductor is connected in series with a 60-Ω resistor through an ideal 15-V DC power supply and an open switch. If the switch is closed at time t = 0 s, what is the current 7.0 ms later?

Answer:

The current in the circuit 7 ms later is 0.2499 A

Explanation:

Given;

Ideal inductor, L = 45-mH

Resistor, R =  60-Ω

Ideal voltage supply, V = 15-V

Initial current at t = 0 seconds:

I₀ = V/R

I₀  = 15/60 = 0.25 A

Time constant, is given as:

T = L/R

T = (45 x 10⁻³) / (60)

T = 7.5 x 10⁻⁴ s

Change in current with respect to time, is given as;

I(t) = I_o(1-e^{-\frac{t}{T}})

Current in the circuit after 7 ms later:

t = 7 ms = 7 x 10⁻³ s

I(t) = I_o(1-e^{-\frac{t}{T}})\\\\I =0.25(1-e^{-\frac{7*10^{-3}}{7.5*10^{-4}}})\\\\I = 0.25(0.9999)\\\\I = 0.2499 \ A

Therefore, the current in the circuit 7 ms later is 0.2499 A
