You and your friend Peter are putting new shingles on a roof pitched at 21∘. You're sitting on the very top of the roof when Pet

er, who is on the edge of the roof, 5.1 mm away, asks you for the box of nails. Rather than carry the 2.3 kgkg box of nails down to Peter, you decide to give the box a push and have it slide down to him. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the roof is 0.53, with what speed should you push the box to have it gently come to rest right at the edge of the roof?

Answer:

3.69 m/s

Explanation:

Forces :

mgsin Θ - mumgcosΘ = ma  

g x sinΘ  - mu x g x cosΘ  = a

9.8 x sin 21 - 0.53 x 9.8 x cos 21 = a

a = -1.337 m/s²

so you have final velocity = 0 m/s

initial velocity = ? m/s

Given d = 5.1 m

By kinematics

vf² = vo² + 2ad

0 = vo² + 2 x -1.337*5.1

vo = 3.69 m/s

A light-rail train going from one station to the next on a straight section of track accelerates from rest at 1.1m/s^2 for 20s.
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

A.) 1430 metres

B.) 80 seconds

Explanation:

Given that the train accelerates from rest at 1.1m/s^2 for 20s. The initial velocity U will be:

U = acceleration × time

U = 1.1 × 20 = 22 m/s

It then proceeds at constant speed for 1100 m

Then, time t will be

Time = distance/ velocity

Time = 1100/22

Time = 50 s

before slowing down at 2.2m/s^2 until it stops at the station.

Deceleration = velocity/time

2.2 = 22/t

t = 22/2.2

t = 10s

Using area under the graph, the distance between the two stations will be :

(1/2 × 22 × 20) + 1100 + (1/2 × 22 × 10)

220 + 1100 + 110

1430 m

The time taken between the two stations will be

20 + 50 + 10 = 80 seconds
