Answer:

C - 11.76 N (Newtons)

Explanation:

2 steps are needed,

First find the Force being applied by the box on the surface.

F = M(a) [Force equals: mass X Acceleration (of gravity)]

You get 39.2 N of Force.

Plug in the remaining values into the equation for Frictional Force

F(f) = μ(F) [Coefficient of Friction X Force applied by the Box]

F(f) = 0.3(39.2) = 11.76 N (of Frictional Force)

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

3. western slope

Explanation:

If we investigate the physical features (such as natural and artificial features) of the Sierra Nevada Mountains located at the California's central valley eastern part, the western slope has the highest value of the precipitation level yearly. This is due to the location of the slope and the relevant conditions such as temperature and humidity.

(i). A ball of mass 1.500 kg is attached to the end of a cord 1.50 m long. The ball moves in a horizontal circle. If the cord ca

(a) Let $v$ be the maximum linear speed with which the ball can move in a circle without breaking the cord. Its centripetal/radial acceleration has magnitude

$a_{\rm rad} = \dfrac{v^2}R$

where $R$ is the radius of the circle.

The tension in the cord is what makes the ball move in its plane. By Newton's second law, the maximum net force on it is

$F = (1.500\,\mathrm{kg}) a_{\rm rad}$

so that

$(1.500\,\mathrm{kg}) \dfrac{v^2}{1.50\,\rm m} = 64.0\,\mathrm N$

Solve for $v$ :

$v^2 = \dfrac{(64.0\,\mathrm N)(1.50\,\mathrm m)}{1.500\,\rm kg} \\\\ \implies \boxed{v = 8.00 \dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}}$

(b) The net force equation in part (a) leads us to the relation

$F = \dfrac{mv^2}R \implies v = \sqrt{\dfrac{FR}m}$

so that $v$ is directly proportional to the square root of $R$ . As the radius $R$ increases, the maximum linear speed $v$ will also increase, so the cord is less likely to break if we keep up the same speed.

If a car changes its velocity from 32 km/hr to 54 km/hr in 8.0 seconds, what is its acceleration?

Stella [2.4K]

Use the equation for the acceleration
A = final velocity - initial velocity divided by time final - time initial
A= 54 - 32 / 8 - 0
A= 22 / 8
A= 2.75 m/s^2
Hope this helps!
