A factory worker pushes a 31.0 kg crate a distance of 4.20 m along a level floor by pushing downward at an angle of 32.0 ∘ below

the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and floor is 0.260.
Now assume that, instead of the previous situation, the worker pushes harder (without changing the direction of his push), so that the crate moves with increasing speed. Assume the crate is pushed over the same displacement as before.

How much work is done on the crate by the force of friction during the displacement of 4.20 m when the pushing force is 118.00 N?

Answer:

W_{fr} = 281.539\,J

Explanation:

The kinetic force of friction is:

f = (0.260)\cdot (31\,kg) \cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot \cos 32^{\textdegree}

f = 67.033\,N

Before calculating work, it is require to determine if force exerted on the crate is enough to move it at least. The equation of equilibrium for the crate is:

\Sigma F = F - f + m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta = m \cdot a

The acceleration experimented by the crate is:

a = \frac{F-f}{m} + g\cdot \sin \theta

a = \frac{118\,N-67.033\,N}{31\,kg}+(9.807\,\frac{kg}{m^{2}} )\cdot \sin 32^{\textdegree}

a = 6.841\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

This positive result indicates that motion is physically reasonable. Hence, the work done by the force of friction is:

W_{fr} = (67.033\,N)\cdot (4.20\,m)

W_{fr} = 281.539\,J

A wave with a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

0.16Hz

Explanation:

wavelength (λ) = 125 meters

speed (V) = 20 m/s

frequency (F) = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one

second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.

So, apply the formula V = F λ

Make F the subject formula

F = V / λ

F = 20 m/s / 125 meters

F = 0.16 Hz

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 23 and its mass number is 90?
givi [52]

Answer:

67

Explanation:

- The atomic number (Z) of an atom is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus

- The mass number (A) of an atom is equal to the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

Therefore, calling p the number of protons and n the number of neutrons, for element X we have:

Z = p = 23

A = p + n = 90

Substituting p=23 into the second equation, we find the number of neutrons:

n = 90 - p = 90 - 23 = 67
