Answer:

Chest experiences the friction forces towards right

Explanation:

Friction forces can be defined as a force a body experiences when it is made to slide against the surface. Friction force always acts to stop the the body which is moving. To stop the body, it always acts in the opposite directions to the motion of the body. Therefore, if the treasure chest is dragged across a sandy beach to the left, the frictional forces will act in the right direction.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a)11.25 J

b)Number of revolution = 1

Explanation:

Given that

Radius ,r= 0.8 m

m= 0.3 kg

Initial speed ,u= 10 m/s

final speed ,v= 5 m/s

a)

Initial energy

KE_i=\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2

KE_i=\dfrac{1}{2}0.3\times 10^2

KEi= 15 J

Final kinetic energy

KE_f=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

KE_f=\dfrac{1}{2}0.3\times 5^2

KEf=3.75 J

The  energy transformed from mechanical to internal = 15 - 3.75 J = 11.25 J

b)

The minimum value to complete the circular arc

 V=\sqrt{r.g}

Now by putting the values

V=\sqrt{0.8\times 10}

V= 2.82 m/s

So kinetic energy KE

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}0.3\times 2.82^2

KE=1.19 J

ΔKE= KEi - KE

ΔKE= 15- 1.19 J

ΔKE=13.80 J

The minimum energy required to complete 2 revolutions = 2 x 11.25 J

                                                                                                    = 22.5 J

Here 22.5 J is greater than 13.8 J.So the particle will complete only one revolution.

Number of revolution = 1

Is position a base or derived quantity?
amid [387]

Position is measured in meters (m), so it is a base quantity.

<h3>What is base quantity?</h3>

A base or fundamental  quantity is a physical quantity, in which other quantities are derived from.

Example of fundamental quantities;

  • Mass
  • Length (position)
  • Time
  • Temperature
  • Amount of substance

<h3>What is a derived quantity?</h3>

Derived quantities are those quantities obtained or expressed from fundamental quantities.

Example of derived quantities;

  • Speed
  • Acceleration
  • Volume
  • Area
  • Density, etc

Thus, we can conclude that position measured in meters (m) is a base quantity.
