The frictional force is given by F = μmg

where μ is the coeficient of friction.

Work done by frictional force = Fd = μmgd

Kinetic energy "lost" = 1/2 mv²

Since we know that W = ΔK,

so, Fd = μmgd = 1/2 mv²

The m's cancel μgd = v² / 2

d = v² / 2μg

d = 4² / 2(0.46)(9.81)

d = 16 / 2(0.46)(9.81)

d = 1.77

Player slides 1.77 m .

The frictional force is given by F = μmg

where μ is the coeficient of friction. 

Work done by frictional force = Fd = μmgd 

Kinetic energy "lost" = 1/2 mv² 

Fd = μmgd = 1/2 mv² 

The m's cancel μgd = v² / 2 

d = v² / 2μg 

d = 8² / 2(0.41)(9.8) 

d = 32 / (0.41)(9.8) 

d = 7.96 

Player slides 8 m . 

Note. In your other example μ = 0.46 and v = 4 m/s 

d = v² / 2μg 

= 4² / 2(0.46)(9.8) 

= 8 / (0.46)(9.8) 

= 1.77 or 1.8 m.

Establish the dimension of density

mario62 [17]

Dimensional Formula of Density
The dimensional formula of density is given by,

[M1 L-3 T0]
Where,

M = Mass
L = Length
T = Time
Derivation

Density (ρ) = Mass × Volume-1 . . . . . (1)

The dimensional formula of volume = [M0 L3 T0] . . . . (2)

And, the dimensional formula of mass = [M1 L0 T0] . . . . (3)

On substituting equation (2) and (3) in equation (1) we get,

Density = Mass × Volume-1

Or, (ρ) = [M1 L0 T0] × [M0 L3 T0]-1 = [M1 L-3 T0]

Therefore, density is dimensionally represented as [M1 L-3 T0].

A 15-ft3 tank contains oxygen initially at 14.7 psia and 80°F. A paddle wheel within the tank is rotated until the pressure insi

Nikolay [14]

Explanation:

Equation for energy balance will be as follows.

$\Delta E_{system} = E_{in} - E_{out}$

$\Delta U = W_{in} - Q_{out}$

Hence, $W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

Therefore, we will calculate the final temperature as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}V}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}V}{T_{2}}$

$T_{2} = \frac{20 psia}{14.7}(638 R)$

= 868.03 R

Now, we will calculate the mass as follows.

m = $\frac{P_{1}V}{RT_{1}}$

= $\frac{14.7 psia \times 15 ft^{3}}{0.3353 psi ft^{3}/lbm R \times 638 R}$

= 1.031 lbm

Hence,

$W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

Putting the values into the above equation as follows.

$W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

$W_{in} = 20 Btu + 1.031 lbm (\frac{0.160 Btu}{lbm R})(735 - 540)R$

$W_{in}$ = 655.2 Btu

Thus, we can conclude that work done by paddle wheel is 655.2 Btu.

Marus traveled on a motorcylce distance of 1,298meters north to get to the nearest shopping center. He then turned back south an

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

48 meters north

Explanation:

If you measure the distance between the point Marus started and the point where they stopped after traveling 1,250 meters back south, you get 48 meters. To make this a displacement quantity, you add 'north' to the end and get 48 meters north, considering this was the initial direction of the motorcycle.
