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

At t = 0 the components of a radio-controlled car's velocity are vx = 0.5 m/s and vy = 1.2 m/s. Find the components of the car's
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

x-component of velocity = 5.7 m/s

y-component of velocity = -1.4 m/s          

Explanation:

Use first equation of motion to find components of velocity at a given time:

v = u + at

where, v is  the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

Given:

u_x= 0.5 m/s\\u_y=1.2 m/s\\a_x=2 m/s^2\\a_y=-1m/s^2\\t = (2.6-0)s =2.6 s

v_x=u_x+a_xt\\\Rightarrow v_x=0.5+2\times 2.6\\\Rightarrow v_x=5.7 m/s

v_y=u_y+a_yt\\\Rightarrow v_y=1.2-1\times 2.6\\\Rightarrow v_y=-1.4 m/s

A 3 kilogram cat is resting on top of a bookshelf that is 3 meters high. What is the cat’s gravitational potential energy relati
Dafna1 [17]
We have: Gravitational Potential Energy (U) = mgh
Here, m = 3 Kg
g = 9.8 m/s²        [ constant value for earth system ]
h = 3 m

Substitute their values into the expression:
U = 3 × 9.8 × 3
U = 88.2 J

In short, Your Answer would be 88.2 Joules.

Hope this helps!

A subway car moves at a constant speed of 10 m/s over a period of 10 s. What is the instantaneous speed halfway through this mot
andre [41]

Answer:  10 m/s

We're told the speed is constant, so it's not changing throughout the time period given to us. So throughout the entire interval, the speed is 10 m/s.

A pendulum takes 6.0 seconds to swing through 5 complete cycles. What is the period of the pendulum?
photoshop1234 [79]
When you look at this, you might not be sure which way to divide ...
Should you divide  6 by 5  or  5 by 6 ?

Here's a case where you can use your units to decide.

The question wants to know the 'period'.  That's a length of time,
so the answer needs to have units of time.

If you divide 'cycles' be 'time', you'll get  'cycles/second'.
That's Hz.  It's frequency, not time.

If you divide 'time' by 'cycles', you'll get 'seconds/cycle'.
That's time, and it's exactly the definition of 'period'.

            Period  =  (6 seconds) / (5 cycles)

                         =    (6 / 5)  seconds/cycle

                         =     1.2  seconds
