A 40-kg box is being pushed along a horizontal smooth surface. The pushing force is 15 n directed at an angle of 15Â° below the

horizontal. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the crate?

Answer:

Acceleration of the crate is 0.362 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the box, m = 40 kg

Applied force, F = 15 N

Angle at which the force is applied, $(\theta)$ = 15°

We have to find the magnitude of the acceleration.

Let the acceleration be "a".

FBD is attached with where we can see the horizontal and vertical component of force.

⇒ $F_x=Fcos(\theta)$ and ⇒ $F_y=Fsin (\theta)$

⇒ $F_x=15cos(15)$ ⇒ $F_y=15sin (15)$

⇒ Applying concept of forces.

⇒ $\sum F_x=F_n_e_t =F-f$

⇒ $F_n_e_t =F-f$

⇒ $ma =F-f$ <em> ...Newtons second law Fnet = ma</em>

⇒ $a =\frac{F-f}{m}$

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ $a =\frac{15cos(15)-0}{40}$ <em>...f is the friction which is zero here.</em>

⇒ $a =\frac{14.48}{40}$

⇒ $a=0.362\ ms^-^2$

Magnitude of the acceleration of the crate is 0.362 m/s^2.

A 10-cm-thick aluminum plate (α = 97.1 × 10−6 m2/s) is being heated in liquid with temperature of 475°C. The aluminum plate has

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

$T_0 = 338.916 Degree\ celcius$

Explanation:

Given data:

Thickness of aluminium sheet 10 cm

initial temperature = 25 degree celcius

Assumption

Thermal properties remain constant, transfer of heat by radiation is negligible.

from the information given in the question we have

T_S ≈T_∞ , it implies we have h → ∞

from table 4.2 Biot number → ∞ the value of

$\lambda_1 = 1.5708 and A_1= 1.2732$

The fourier number is

$t = \frac{\alpha t}{l^2} = \frac{97.1\times 10^{-6} \times 15}{0.05^2} = 0.5826$

Temperature at center after 15 second of heating

$\theta _{0 wall} = \frac{T_0 - T_{\infity}}{T_i -T_{\infity}} = A_i e^{\lambda_1^2 t}$

$T_0 = T_i -T_{\infity} \times A_i e^{\lambda_1^2 t}$

$T_0 = (25 - 475) 1.2732 e^{-1.5708^2 \times 0.5826} + 475 = 356 degree celcius$

$T_0 = 338.916 Degree\ celcius$

Where would sound NOT be

Tcecarenko [31]

The answer is D, or Outer Space.

Explanation:

Sound is implemented through mechanical wave transferral, which requires a medium (solid, liquid, or gas) to travel through. Because sound is a mechanical wave, it cannot travel through vacuums (space).

One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. There are several thousand objects orbiting Earth that are large

svet-max [94.6K]

Given:

• Mass, m = 0.200 mg

,

• Speed, v = 3.00 x 10³ m/s

,

• Time, t = 6.00 x 10^⁻⁸ s.

Let's calculate the force exerted.

Using the inpulse-momentum theroerm, we have:

impulse = change in momemntum

Where:

Impulse = force x time

change in momentum = mass x velocity.

Thus, we have:

$F\times6.00\times10^{-8}=(0.200\times10^{-6})\times(3.00\times10^3)$

Let's solve for the force F:

$\begin{gathered} F=\frac{(0.200\times10^{-6})(3.00\times10^3)}{6.00\times10^{-8}} \\ \\ F=10000N \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the force exterted is 10000 N.

10000 N

What is the difference between atoms and particals? Help

Otrada [13]

An atom is the smallest unit of matter that forms a chemical element. An atom is made up of three kinds of subatomic particles: electrons, protons, and neutrons.A molecule is a combination of atoms bonded together through a covalent bond. Generally, we think of molecules as having no charge (although molecular ions do exist)
