You push against a steamer trunk with a force of 800 n at an angle alpha with the horizontal . the trunk is on a flat floor and

the coefficient of static friction between the trunk and floor is 0.55. the mass of the trunk is 87 kg. what is the largest value of alpha that will allow you to move the trunk?

The formula for this problem that we will be using is:
F * cos α = m * g * μs where:F = 800m = 87g = 9.8
cos α = m*g*μs/F= 87*9.8*0.55/800= 0.59 So solving the alpha, find the arccos above.
α = arccos 0.59 = 54 ° is the largest value of alpha

A fuzzy bunny sees a butterfly and chases it right off of a 20 m high cliff at 7m/s
bogdanovich [222]

A) 2.02 s

To find the time it takes for the bunny to reach the rocks below the cliff, we just need to analyze its vertical motion. This motion is a free fall motion, which is a uniformly accelerated motion. So we can use the suvat equation:

s=u_y t+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the vertical displacement

u is the initial vertical velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the bunny here, choosing downward as positive direction,

u_y = 0 (initial vertical velocity is zero)

s = 20 m

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

And solving for t, we find the time of flight:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(20)}{9.8}}=2.02 s

B) 14.1 m

For this part, we need to consider the horizontal motion of the bunny.

The horizontal motion of the bunny is a uniform motion with constant velocity, which is the initial velocity of the bunny:

v_x = 7 m/s

Therefore the distance covered after time t is given by

d=v_x t

And substituting the time at which the bunny hits the ground,

t = 2.02 s

We find how far the bunny went from the cliff:

d=(7)(2.02)=14.1 m

C) 21.0 m/s at 70.5^{\circ} below the horizontal

The horizontal component of the velocity is constant during the entire motion, so it will still be the same when the bunny hits the ground:

v_x = 7 m/s

Instead, the vertical velocity is given by

v_y = u_y +at

And substituting t = 2.02 s, we find the vertical velocity at the moment of impact:

v_y = 0+(9.8)(2.02)=19.8 m/s

So, the magnitude of the final velocity is

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{7^2+(19.8)^2}=21.0 m/s

And the angle is given by

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})=tan^{-1}(\frac{19.8}{7})=70.5^{\circ}

below the horizontal

A bird flies 1.3 m with an average speed of 2.4m/s How many seconds did the bird fly?
lord [1]

Answer:

0.54 sec.

Explanation:

The Speed: <u>2.4 m/seconds</u>

The Distance: <u>1.3 m</u>

So time =  Distance/Speed

Time = <u>1.3 / 2.4</u>

THE ANSWER WILL BE 0.54 seconds.
