Answer:

Work done by the force of friction 900 J and coefficient of friction Us=0.166

Explanation:

∑F= m*a

F-F_{fr} = m*a

200 N - F_{fr} = 55 kg * 2 \frac{m}{s^{2} }  \\200 N - 110 N =  F_{fr}\\ F_{fr}= 90 N \\ F_{fr}= m*g*us  \\90N = 55 kg*9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} } *us  \\us= \frac{90N}{110N} = 0.166 \\W_{fr}= F_{fr}*d = 90N*10m = 900 J

1j=1newton*meter
force=mass*accel
200N=55x
200/55=3.636......
3.636...-2=1.636.....
1.636 is the deceleration resulting from friction hence the force of friction is 1.636*55=90newtons
90newtons*distance of 10 meters= 900 j of work done by friction

Why echo sound cannot be heard in small room
Art [367]
They can't hear an echo in small room because in it the sound can't be reflected back. For an echo of a sound to be heard,the minimum distance between the source of sound and the walls of the roomshould be 17.2 m. Obviously,in asmall room echoes cannot beheard.

A spaceship whose rest length is 350m has a speed of .82c
igomit [66]

Answer:

t'=1.1897*10^{-6} s

t'=1.1897 μs

Explanation:

First we will calculate the velocity of micrometeorite relative to spaceship.

Formula:

u=\frac{u'+v}{1+\frac{u'*v}{c^{2}}}

where:

v is the velocity of spaceship relative to certain frame of reference =  -0.82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track).

u is the velocity of micrometeorite relative to same frame of reference as spaceship = .82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track)

u' is the relative velocity of micrometeorite with respect to spaceship.

In order to find u' , we can rewrite the above expression as:

u'=\frac{v-u}{\frac{u*v}{c^{2} }-1 }

u'=\frac{-0.82c-0.82c}{\frac{0.82c*(-0.82c)}{c^{2} }-1 }

u'=0.9806c

Time for micrometeorite to pass spaceship can be calculated as:

t'=\frac{length}{Relatie seed (u')}

t'=\frac{350}{0.9806c}     (c = 3*10^8 m/s)

t'=\frac{350}{0.9806* 3.0*10^{8} }

t'=1.1897*10^{-6} s

t'=1.1897 μs

You want to place a mirror at a blind turn on the staircase in your house. Which would be best suited for this purpose?
Eduardwww [97]
You can't see beyond a blind turn, so a mirror would allow you to see around the corner.
