lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

0.30581

0.24464

Explanation:

\mu_s = Coefficient of static friction

\mu_k = Coefficient of kinetic friction

F_f = 75 N

F_k = 60 N

Normal force

F_n=mg\\\Rightarrow F_n=25\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=245.25\ N

Frictional force

F_f=\mu_sF_n\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{F_f}{F_n}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{75}{245.25}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=0.30581

The coefficient of static friction is 0.30581

Kinetic force

F_k=\mu_kF_n\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=\frac{F_k}{F_n}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{60}{245.25}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=0.24464

The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.24464

A truck travels down the highway at a speed of 110 km/hr. How long does the trip last if the truck covered 2200km?
vivado [14]
It'll last 20 hours. If it travels 110 miles in one hours, 110 times 20 equals 2,200.

If the average pitcher is releasing the ball from a height of 1.8 m above the ground, and the pitcher's mound is 0.2 m higher th
mina [271]

The catcher can catch the ball at a height of 0.96 m from the ground.

The distance between the pitcher's mound and the catcher's box is about 60'6", which translates to 18.44 m. An average pitcher can pitch with speeds ranging from 88 mph to 97 mph, which is from 39.3 m/s to 43.4 m/s.

Assume the pitcher pitches a ball horizontally with a speed of 40 m/s. If the catcher catches the ball in a time t, then the ball travels a horizontal distance x of 18.44 m and at the same time falls through a height y.

The horizontal motion of the ball is uniform motion since no force acts on the ball ( assuming no air resistance) and hence the acceleration of the ball along the horizontal direction is zero.

Therefore,

x=ut

Calculate the time t by substituting 18.44 m for x and 40 m/s for u.

t=\frac{x}{u} \\ =\frac{18.44 m}{40 m/s} \\ =0.461s

The ball is acted upon by the earth's gravitational attraction and hence it accelerates downwards with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity g.

Since a horizontal projection is assumed, the ball has no component of velocity in the downward direction.

Therefore, for vertical motion, which is an accelerated motion, the distance y, the ball falls in the time t taken by it to reach the catcher's box is given by the equation,

y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Substitute 9.8 m/s² for g and 0.461 s for t.

y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2\\ y=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^2)(0.461s)^2=1.04 m

The pitcher releases the ball at a height of 1.8 m from a mound which is at a height of 0.2 m. Thus, the ball is released at a height of 2.0 m from the ground. It falls through a distance of 1.04 m in the time it takes to reach the catcher.

Therefore, the height at which the catcher needs to keep his glove so as to catch the ball is given by,(2.0 m)-(1.04 m)=0.96 m

The catcher needs to hold his glove at a height of <u>0,96 m from the ground.</u>
