Samantha is refinishing her rusty wheelbarrow. She moves her sandpaper back and forth 45 times over a rusty area, each time movi

ng with a total distance of 0.12 m. Samantha pushes the sandpaper against the surface with a normal force of 2.6 N. The coefficient of friction for the metal/sandpaper interface is 0.92. How much work is done by the normal force during the sanding process

Answer:

W = 12.96 J

Explanation:

The force acting in the direction of motion of the sand paper is the frictional force. So, we first calculate the frictional force:

F = μR

where,

F = Friction Force = ?

μ = 0.92

R = Normal Force = 2.6 N

Therefore,

F = (0.92)(2.6 N)

F = 2.4 N

Now, the displacement is given as:

d = (0.12 m)(45)

d = 5.4 m

So, the work done will be:

W = F d

W = (2.4 N)(5.4 m)

<u>W = 12.96 J</u>

A hill that has a 36.1% grade is one that rises 36.1 m vertically for every 100.0 ml of distance in the horizontal direction. At
GaryK [48]

Answer:

angle is 19.85°

Explanation:

given data

grade = 36.1 %

vertically distance y = 36.1 m

horizontal distance x = 100 m

to find out

angle

solution

we know that according to question here

it make a triangle shape that contain 100 m base and height 36.1 m

and make angle with base is θ

so by triangle we know here

tanθ = y/x   ..........1

so we now put x and y and find θ

tanθ = 36.1 / 100

tanθ = 0.361

θ = 19.85°

so angle is 19.85°

A hammer is dropped from the roof of a building 1000 meters tall. How long will it
ipn [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let's use the kinematic equation

s = ut + ½at²

Where

s = distance fallen

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

a = acceleration

Here the hammer is dropped so a = g = gravitational acceleration

u = 0 because the hammer is dropped.

So by substituting you get,

1000 = 0 + ½×10×t²

t² = 200

t = 14.14 s

1. Earth releases about 44-46 Tw of heat, in fact heat can be converted into
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

  even if it all could be used, it wouldn't be enough

Explanation:

The land area of the US is about 5.45% of the world's area, so the amount of released heat over the area of the US is on the order of 2.4 Tw. Current technology for converting geothermal energy to electricity is about 12% efficient, so the available energy might amount to 0.29 Tw if it could all be captured.

Energy consumption in the US in 2019 was on the order of 0.46 Tw. This suggests that even if <em>all</em> of the thermal energy radiated by the Earth from the US could be turned to useful forms of energy, it would meet only about 60% of the US need for energy.
