A sled plus passenger with total mass m = 53.1 kg is pulled a distance d = 25.3 m across a horizontal, snow-packed surface for w

hich the coefficient of kinetic friction with the sled is μk = 0.155. The pulling force is constant and makes an angle of φ = 28.3 degrees above horizontal. The sled moves at constant velocity.
Required:
a. Write an expression for the work done by the pulling force in terms of m, g (acceleration due to gravity), φ, μk, and d.
b. What is the work done by the pulling force, in joules?
c. Write an expression for the work done on the sled by friction in terms of m, g (acceleration due to gravity), φ, μk, and d.

Answer:

Explanation:

Force of friction

F = μ mg

μ is coefficient of friction , m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity .

If f be the force applied to pull the sled , the horizontal component of force should be equal to frictional  force

The vertical component of applied force will reduce the normal force or reaction force from the ground

Reaction force R = mg - f sin28.3

frictional force = μ R where μ is coefficient of friction

frictional force = μ x (mg - f sin28.3 )

This force should be equal to horizontal component of f

μ x (mg - f sin28.3 ) = f cos 28.3

μ x mg = f μsin28.3 + f cos 28.3

f = μ x mg / (μsin28.3 + cos 28.3 )

a )

work done by pulling force  = force x displacement

f cos28.3 x d

μ x mg d cos28.3  / (μsin28.3 + cos 28.3 )

b ) Putting the given values

= .155 x 53.1 x 9.8 x 25.3 cos28.3 / ( .155 x sin28.3 + cos 28.3 )

= 1796.76 / (.073 + .88 )

= 1885.37  J

c )

Work done by frictional force

= frictional force x displacement

=  -  μ x (mg - f sin28.3 ) x d  

= -  μ x mgd + f μsin28.3  x d

= -  μ x mgd + μsin28.3  x d x μ x mg / (μsin28.3 + cos 28.3 )

d )

Putting the values in the equation above

- .155 x 53.1 x 9.8 x 25.3 +

.155 x .474 x 25.3 x .155 x 53.1 x 9.8 /( .155 x .474 + .88)

= -2040.67 + 149.92 / .95347

= -2040.67 + 157.23

= -1883.44 J .

). with the input voltage range set at +/- 500mv, what is the smallest difference in voltage that can be resolved? show your cal
dalvyx [7]
The smallest difference in voltage that can be resolved is referred to as the resolution. The resolution can be calculated with the following formula:
resolution=voltage range / digital range
The voltage range in our case is from -500mV to 500mV, which gives 1000mV.
The digital range on the other hand is 2^(number of bits).
It depends on what type of bit board we are using. If the ADC we are using is a 16 bit board, then 2^16=<span>65536.
So, the resolution is:
resolution=1000mV/</span><span>65536=0.015 mV</span>

Which of the following is an example of a renewable natural resource?
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

c. lumber      

Explanation:

Lumber is considered a renewable natural resource because it is gotten from trees and trees are grow-able. A renewable natural resource is a resource which can be used repeatedly and replaced naturally. Examples of renewable natural resources are solar energy from the sun, water, oxygen, biomass, trees etc. Trees can be harvested and processed into lumber. The harvested trees can be planted again by humans or they can naturally reproduce through seedlings or fruits that drop and germinate on their own. This renewable germinating process of trees makes lumber a renewable natural resource.

What is the number of electrons that move past a point in a wire carrying 500 A of current in 4.0 minutes
mr Goodwill [35]
The current is defined as the amount of charge Q that passes through a given point of a wire in a time \Delta t:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
Since I=500 A and the time interval is
\Delta t=4.0 min=240 s
the charge is
Q=I \Delta t=(500 A)(240 s)=1.2 \cdot 10^5 C

One electron has a charge of q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C, therefore the number of electrons that pass a point in the wire during 4 minutes is
N= \frac{Q}{q}= \frac{1.2 \cdot 10^5 C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C}=7.5 \cdot 10^{23} electrons
