Answer:

The work done on the box is 80 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of box = 40 N

Distance = 2 meter

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

$W=F\times x$

$W=mg\times x$

Where, x = distance

mg = weight

Put the value into the formula

$W=40\times2$

$W= 80\ Nm$

$W=80\ J$

Hence, The work done on the box is 80 J.

a 0.0215m diameter coin rolls up a 20 degree inclined plane. the coin starts with an initial angular speed of 55.2rad/s and roll

Answer:

$h = 0.0362\,m$

Explanation:

Given the absence of non-conservative force, the motion of the coin is modelled after the Principle of Energy Conservation solely.

$U_{g,A} + K_{A} = U_{g,B} + K_{B}$

$U_{g,B} - U_{g,A} = K_{A} - K_{B}$

$m\cdot g \cdot h = \frac{1}{2}\cdot I \cdot \omega_{o}^{2}$

The moment of inertia of the coin is:

$I = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot r^{2}$

After some algebraic handling, an expression for the maximum vertical height is derived:

$m\cdot g \cdot h = \frac{1}{4}\cdot m \cdot r^{2}\cdot \omega_{o}^{2}$

$h = \frac{r^{2}\cdot \omega_{o}^{2}}{g}$

$h = \frac{(0.0108\,m)^{2}\cdot (55.2\,\frac{rad}{s} )^{2}}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }$

$h = 0.0362\,m$

Does riding a bike up a hill in higher gear burn more calories than a lower gear

Rasek [7]

Yes. If you are riding a bike up a hill in fifth gear, you will burn considerably more calories than if you were to bike up that hill in first gear. The lower the gear, the easier the pedaling, and therefore fewer calories are burned.

I'm solving for the angle on a right triangle the hypotenuse is 36 and the base is 24 I don't understand how or when to use cos

Alika [10]

Given

hypotenuse is 36

base is 24

Procedure

Cos function (or cosine function) in a triangle is the ratio of the adjacent side to that of the hypotenuse. The cosine function is one of the three main primary trigonometric functions and it is itself the complement of sine(co+sine).

$\begin{gathered} \cos \theta=\frac{24}{36} \\ \theta=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{24}{36}) \\ \theta=48.1 \end{gathered}$

The answer would be 48 degrees

When the velocity of the car is constant the force of friction is?

miv72 [106K]

..... equal to the force from the engine pushing the car forward.

That's why the car is not accelerating. The horizontal forces on it
are balanced.
