Answer:

Explanation:

To get the person Moving you have to overcome the static (means not moving) friction coefficient.  U(static)

To get the person going at the same speed you have to overcome the kinetic friction coefficient. U(Kinetic)

Force to get him moving is 198 N.   Force = ma = U(static)Mg

combining the 2 equations you get 198N = U(static)* 55kg *9.8m/s^2   Solve for U(static)

Same equation to keep him moving except with the dynamic force and the dynamic U

 

175N=  U(kinetic)*55kg*9.8m/s^2  Solve (U dynamic)

An object of mass 800g hangs on a spring. Calculate the force exerted by the object if acceleration due to gravity is 10/s2​
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

8 N

Explanation:

Using the equation F=ma (F: force/ m: mass  in kg/ a: acceleration),

F = (800/1000)(10)

F = 8 N

The Coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires of your car and the roadway is \"μ\". (a) If your initial speed is \"v\" a
vazorg [7]
We make use of the equation: v^2=v0^2+2a Δd. We substitute v^2 equals to zero since the final state is halting the truck. Hence we get the equation           -<span>v0^2/2a = Δd. F = m a from the second law of motion. Rearranging, a = F/m
</span>F = μ Fn where the force to stop the truck is the force perpendicular or normal force multiplied by the static coefficient of friction. We substitute, -v0^2/2<span>μ Fn/m</span> = Δd. This is equal to

What constant acceleration (in ft/s2) is required to increase the speed of a car from 27 mi/h to 50 mi/h in 5 seconds
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

6.746 ft/s^2

Explanation:

v(t)=50

v(0)=27

t=5/3600 = 1/720 hours

v(t)-v(0)= a(t-0)

50-27= a(1/720)

a= 23*720= 16560 mi/h^2

16560mi/h^2 * 5280/3600^2 (ft/s^2) =6.746 ft/s^2
