Answer:

35.6 N

Explanation:

We can consider only the forces acting along the horizontal direction to solve the problem.

There are two forces acting along the horizontal direction:

- The horizontal component of the pushing force, which is given by

F_x = F cos \theta

with \theta=41.9^{\circ}

- The frictional force, whose magnitude is

F_f = \mu mg

where \mu=0.33, m=8.2 kg and g=9.8 m/s^2.

The two forces have opposite directions (because the frictional force is always opposite to the motion), and their resultant must be zero, because the suitcase is moving with constant velocity (which means acceleration equals zero, so according to Newton's second law: F=ma, the net force is zero). So we can write:

F_x - F_f=0\\F_x = F_f\\F cos \theta = \mu mg\\F=\frac{\mu mg}{cos \theta}=\frac{(0.33)(8.2 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}{cos(41.9^{\circ})}=35.6 N

The time between a lightning flash and the following thunderclap may be used to estimate, in kilometers, how far away a storm is
Kruka [31]

Given Information:  

Elapsed time = t = 6 seconds

Required Information:

Distance = d = ?

Answer:

Distance = d = 2.058 km

Explanation:

We know that the speed of sound in the air is given by

v = 343 m/s

The relation between distance, speed and time is given by

distance = speed*time

substituting the given values yields,

distance = 343*6

distance = 2058 m

There are 1000 meters in 1 km so

d = 2058/1000

d = 2.058 km

Therefore, the storm is about 2.058 km away when elapse time between the lightning and the thunderclap is 6 seconds.

A 300 g glass thermometer initially at 23 ◦C is put into 236 cm3 of hot water at 87 ◦C. Find the final temperature of the thermo
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

74^{\circ} C

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of glass,m=300 g

T_1=23^{\circ}

Volume,V=236cm^3

Mass of water=density\times volume=1\times 236=236 g

Density of water=1g/cm^3

Temperature of hot water,T=87^{\circ}

Specific heat of glass,C_g=0.2cal/g^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water,C_w=1 cal/g^{\circ}C

Q_{glass}=m_gC_g(T_f-T_1)=300\times 0.2(T_f-23)

Q_{water}=m_wC_w(T_f-T)=236\times 1(T_f-87)

Q_{glass}+Q_{water}=0

300\times 0.2(T_f-23)+236\times 1(T_f-87)

60T_f-1380+236T_f-20532=0

296T_f=20532+1380=21912

T_f=\frac{21912}{296}=74^{\circ} C

What is velocity ratio ?​
Rasek [7]

The ratio of the distance moved by the point at which the effort is applied in a simple machine to the distance moved by the point at which the load is applied, in the same time. In the case of an ideal (frictionless and weightless) machine, velocity ratio = mechanical advantage. Velocity ratio is sometimes called distance ratio.
