A horizontal force of 200N is applied to a 55kg cart across a 10m level surface. If the cart accelerates at 2.0m/s^2, then what

is the work done by the force of friction as it slows the motion of the cart?

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

A block of mass m=1kg sliding along a rough horizontal surface is traveling at a speed v0=2m/s when it strikes a massless spring
topjm [15]

Here we can use the work energy theorem

W_f + W_s = K_f - K_i

here we know that

K_f = 0

as it come to rest finally

K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

K_i = \frac{1}{2}\times 1\times 2^2

K_i = 2 J

now work done by friction force will be given as

W_f = - F_f \times d = -\mu mg d

W_f = - \mu(1)(9.8)(0.10) = - 0.98\mu

Work done by spring force is given as

W_s = \frac{1}{2}k(x_i^2 - x_f^2)

W_s = \frac{1}{2}(10)( 0 - 0.10^2)

W_s = -0.05 J

so now plug in all data above

- 0.05 - \mu(0.98) = 0 - 2

\mu = 1.99

so above is the friction coefficient

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

B. 1500 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Momentum p = m* v

In any type of collision, the total momentum is preserved!

The total momentum before and the total momentum after the collision is the same. We know the mass and speed after the collision so we can calculate the total momentum.

p1 + p2 =

m1*v1 + m2*v2

m1 = me = 300 kg

v1 = 3 m/s

v2 = 2 m/s

Substitute the given numbers:

300*3 + 300+2

900 + 600

1500 kg*m/s, which is answer B.

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

147 J

Explanation:

The energy transferred to potential energy is :

U = m * g * h = (5 kg) * (9.8 m/s^2) * (3 m) = 147 J
