Answer:

58.27 N

Explanation:

the data we have is:

mass: m=22kg

coefficient of friction: \mu =0.27

and we also know the acceleration of gravity is g=9.81m/s^2

We need to do an analysis of horizontal and vertical forces acting on the object:

-------

Vertically the forces acting on the object:

  • Normal force N (acting up from the object)
  • weight: w=mg (acting down from)

so the sum of forces in the vertical axis "y" are:

F_{y}=N-w\\F_{y}=N-mg

from Newton's second Law we know that F=ma, so:

ma_{y}=N-mg

and since the object is not accelerating in the vertical direction (the movement is only horizontal) a_{y}=0, and:

0=N-mg\\N=mg

-----------

now let's analyze the horizontal forces

  • frictional force: f= \mu N and since N=mg  --> f=\mu mg
  • force to move the object: F

and the two forces just mentioned must be opposite, thus the sum of forces in the "x" axis is:

F=ma_{x}=F-f\\ma_{x}=F-\mu mg

and we are told that the crate moves at a steady speed, thus there is no acceleration: a_{x}=0

and we get:

0=F-\mu mg\\F=\mu mg

substituting known values:

F=(0.27)(22kg)(9.81m/s^2)\\F=58.27N

solmaris [256]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Wavelength depending on the frequency and speed of light.

The equation that meets these parameters is given by

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Where,

c = Speed of light

\lambda = Wavelength

f = Frequency

Our values are given as

c = 3*10^8m/s \rightarrow velocity of light in free space

f = 2Hz

Replacing we have that

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}\\\lambda = \frac{3*10^8}{2}\\\lambda = 1.5*10^8m

Therefore the correct answer is B.

A 5.0 kg wooden block Is 100 meters from the ground. What is the gravitational potential energy for the block?
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

<h2>4900 J</h2>

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

GPE = 5 × 9.8 × 100

We have the final answer as

<h3>4900 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
