Answer:

Net force on the block is 32 N.

Acceleration of the object is 6.4 m/s².

Explanation:

Let the acceleration of the object be a m/s².

Given:

Mass of the block is, m=5\ kg

Force of pull is, F=40\ N

Frictional force on the block is, f=8\ N

The free body diagram of the object is shown below.

From the figure, the net force in the forward direction is given as:

F_{net}=F-f=40-8=32\ N

Now, from Newton's second law of motion, net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration. So,

F_{net}=ma\\32=5a\\a=\frac{32}{5}=6.4\ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the object in the forward direction is 6.4 m/s².

The x-coordinates of two objects moving along the x-axis are given as a function of time (t). x1= (4m/s)t x2= -(161m) + (48m/s)t
Kitty [74]
The two displacement functions are
x₁ = 4t
x₂ = -161 + 48t - 4t²
where
x₁, x₂ are in meters
t is time, s

The distance between the two objects is
x = x₁ - x₂
   =  4t + 161 - 48t + 4t²
x = 4t² - 44t + 161

Write this equation in the standard form for a parabola.
x = 4[t² - 11t] + 161
  = 4[ (t - 5.5)² - 5.5² ] + 161
 x = 4(t-5)² + 40

Ths is a parabola that faces up and has its vertex (lowest point) at (5, 40).
Therefore the closest approach of the two objects is 40 m.
The graph of x versus t confirms the result.

Answer: The distance of the closest approach is 40 m.

||||| A ball on a porch rolls 60 cm to the porch’s edge, drops 40 cm, continues rolling on the grass, and eventually stops 80 cm
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

d = 145.6 cm

Explanation:

first ball rolls on the porch by total distance

x_1 = 60 cm

Then again it will move on horizontal floor

x_2 = 80 cm

also in vertical direction it will drop down

y = 40 cm

so we have

x = 60 + 80

x = 140 cm

y = 40 cm

so magnitude of net displacement of the ball is given as

d = \sqrt{140^2 + 40^2}

d = 145.6 cm

Scenario 2: Use the following information to answer questions 3 and 4:
NemiM [27]

Answer:

A. 52 min

.A. 47 watts

Explanation:

Given that;

jim weighs 75 kg

and he walks 3.3 mph; the objective here is to determine how long must he walk to expend 300 kcal.

Using the following relation to determine the amount of calories burned per minute while walking; we have:

\dfrac{MET*weight (kg)*3.5}{200}

here;

MET = energy cost of a physical activity for a period of time

Obtaining the data for walking with a speed of 3.3 mph From the  standard chart for MET, At 3.3 mph; we have our desired value to be 4.3

However;

the calories burned in a minute = \dfrac{4.3*75 (kg)*3.5}{200}

= 5.644

Therefore, for walking for 52 mins; Jim  burns approximately 293.475 kcal which is nearest to 300 kcal.

4.

Given that:

mass m = 75 kg

intensity = 6 kcal/min

The eg ergometer work rate = ??

Applying the formula:

V_O_2 ( intensity ) = ( \dfrac{W}{m}*1.8)+7

where ;

V_O_2 ( intensity ) = \dfrac{1 \ kcal min^{-1}*10^{-3}}{5}

V_O_2 ( intensity ) = \dfrac{6*1 \ kcal min^{-1}*10^{-3}}{5}

V_O_2 ( intensity ) = 0.0012

∴0.0012 = (\dfrac{W}{75}*1.8)+7 \\ \\ W = \dfrac{0.0012-7}{1.8}*75 \\ \\ W = \dfrac{7*75}{1.8}  \\ \\ W = 291.66 \ kg m /min

Converting to watts;

Since;  6.118kg-m/min is =  1 watt

Then 291.66 kgm /min will be equal to 47.67 watts

≅ 47 watts
