A pickup truck is carrying a 10.0 kgkg toolbox, but the tailgate of the truck is missing, so the box can slide out if it starts

moving. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the toolbox and the truck bed are 0.30 and 0.13, respectively. Assume that the truck bed is horizontal. What is the shortest time the truck could take to accelerate from rest to 10.2 m/sm/s without causing the toolbox to slide?

Answer:

Shortest time = 3.47 seconds

Explanation:

We know that Force of gravity of an object is given by;

F_g = mg

Also, Force due to kinetic friction is given as;

F_friction = μ_k•F_n

Force due to static friction is given as;

F_static = μ_s•F_n

Where ;

μ_k = coefficient of kinetic friction

μ_s = coefficient of static friction

F_n = Normal Force

Let's solve for the static crate.

From the free body diagram i attached, the resultant force in the vertical y direction will be;

N - mg = 0

Thus, N = mg

WherN is the

From earlier, we know that;

F_static = μ_s•F_n

Thus,

F_static = μ_s•mg

Now, in the horizontal x direction,

F_static = ma

Thus,

μ_s•mg = ma

m will cancel out, and;

a = μ_s•g

a = 0.3 x 9.81 = 2.943 m/s²

Not, to get the final the final speed of the tool box, we'll use;

V_f = V_i + a•Δt

Where;

Δt is shortest time.

V_f = final velocity

V_i = initial velocity

Thus, making Δt the subject, we have;

Δt = (V_f - V_i)/a = (10.2 - 0)/2.943 = 3.47 s

A 200-foot tall monument is located in the distance. From a window in a building, a person determines that the angle of elevatio
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

665 ft

Explanation:

Let d be the distance from the person to the monument. Note that d is perpendicular to the monument and would make 2 triangles with the monuments, 1 up and 1 down.

The side length of the up right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of elevation is 13 degrees is

dtan13^0 = 0.231d

Similarly, the side length of the down right-triangle knowing the other side is d and the angle of depression is 4 degrees

dtan4^0 = 0.07d

Since the 2 sides length above make up the 200 foot monument, their total length is

0.231d + 0.07d = 200

0.301 d = 200

d = 200 / 0.301 = 665 ft

A machine is rolling a metal cylinder under pressure. The radius of the cylinder is decreasing at a constant rate of 0.05 inches
Luden [163]
Yes, the volume of the cylinder will remain constant. As the radius decreases, the height will increase to make sure that the volume is kept the same.
We have been given a value of dr/dt and are required to find dh/dt
Because the volume is constant, we can plug it into the formula for the volume of the cylinder and rearrange it to make h the subject:
128 = πr²h
h = 128/πr²
Now we differentiate both sides:
dh/dr = -256/πr³
Applying the chain rule:
dh/dt = dh/dr x dr/dt
dh/dt = (-256/πr³) x -0.05
dh/dt = 64/5πr³; substituting the value of r
dh/dt = 64/5π(1.5)³
dh/dt = 1.21 in/sec

If you were designing a room in a house, where would be the better place to put a heater, near the floor or near the ceiling? Wh
taurus [48]

Answer: The correct explanation is 2.

Explanation: The warm air is less dense (it expands) and thus it is lighter than the cold air so it will rise up to the floor. Therefore, when you place the heater on the floor it will warm the cold air which would then rise and be replaced by more cold air which would again get warm and rise and so on until the room is heated. This means that the correct explanation is 2.

On the other hand, if you put the heater at the ceiling, it will warm the cold air near the ceiling which would stay up there (it is lighter than the cold air under it). This means that the only way for the heat to spread from this ceiling level warm air to the lower levels is via conduction which is slow.
