How much work did the movers do (horizontally) pushing a 41.0-kg crate 10.6 m across a rough floor without acceleration, if the

effective coefficient of friction was 0.60?

Answer:

The required work done is 2555.448~J

Explanation:

Consider 'F' is the applied force on the crate and 'f' be the force created by friction. According to the figure if '\mu_{k}' be the coefficient of friction, then

f = \mu_{k} \times N = \mu_{k} \times Mg

where 'M', 'N' and 'g' are the mass of the crate, the normal force aced upon the block and the acceleration due to gravity respectively.

Since the application of force by the movers does not create any acceleration to the block, we can write

F = f = \mu_{k} \times M \times g = 0.6 \times 41~Kg~ \times 9.8~m~s^{-2} = 241.08~N

So the work done (W) in moving the crate by a distance s = 10.6 m is

W = F \times s = 241.08~N \times 10.6~m = 2555.448 J

A 4000 N force acts on an object that initially has a momentum of 400 kg-m/s for 0.9 seconds. What is the final momentum of the
kaheart [24]

Answer:

4360 Kgm/s

Explanation:

Applying,

Ft = M-M'................. Equation 1

Where F = force, t = time, M = Final momentum, M' = Initial momentum.

make M the subject of the equation

M = Ft+M'............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 4000 N, t = 0.9 seconds, M' = 400 kg-m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

M = 4000+(0.9×400)

M = 4000+360

M = 4360 kgm/s

Hence the final momentum is 4360 kgm/s

A steel ball of mass 50 g is rolled from the left toward a ball of lead of mass 500 g. The steel ball is traveling with a veloci
alina1380 [7]

Answer: It's hard to say without characterizing the collision. But it will be either A if the collision is totally in-elastic, or B if the collision is totally elastic. It could be anywhere in between for partially elastic collisions.

Explanation:

momentum is conserved, so initial system momentum will be left to right.

The velocity of the center of mass is 50(5) / 550 = 0.4545... m/s

In an elastic collision, the lead ball will move off at twice that speed or 0.91 m/s to the right.

The steel ball will bounce back and move away at 0.91 - 5 = -4.1 m/s . The negative sign indicates the steel ball has reversed course and has negative momentum

In a totally in-elastic collision, both balls would move to the right at 0.45 m/s. The steel ball will still have positive momentum.
