Answer:

a) $F = 882.63\,N$ , b) $\dot W= 4413.15\,W$ , c) $\eta = 15.216\,\%$ .

Explanation:

a) Let assume that car travel on a horizontal surface. The equations of equilibrium of the car are:

$\Sigma F_{x} = F - \mu_{r}\cdot N = 0$

$\Sigma F_{y} = N - m\cdot g = 0$

After some algebraic handling, the following expression for the propulsion force is constructed:

$F = \mu_{r}\cdot m \cdot g$

$F = (0.06)\cdot (1500\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )$

$F = 882.63\,N$

b) The power require to move the car at a speed of 5 meters per second is:

$\dot W = F\cdot v$

$\dot W = (882.63\,N)\cdot (5\,\frac{m}{s} )$

$\dot W= 4413.15\,W$

c) The efficiency of the car is:

$\eta = \frac{(882.63\,N)\cdot (15\,mi)\cdot (\frac{1609\,m}{1\,mi} )}{(1.4\times 10^{8}\,J)} \times 100\,\%$

$\eta = 15.216\,\%$

List at least five examples of minerals and their common uses.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Beryllium

Beryllium is an alkaline metallic element that is highly toxic. It is known for its sugary sweet taste and some of its common uses are in X-rays and fluorescent lights.

Beryllium : A very thorough and technical site about this mineral.

Chromite

Chromite is the ore of chromium and is a very hard metal, and diamond is the only thing harder. This hardness is what allows a chrome finish to take a high polish.

Chromite : This site talks about its history and characteristics.

Cobalt

Cobalt is famous for the incredible blue color it imparts to glass and pigment. It has been found in meteorites and is used in invisible ink. It is a brittle metal and resembles iron.

Cobalt : This site has photos, video, charts and physical and atomic descriptions.

Columbite-tantalite

Columbite-tantalite group is a mineral used widely in technology. Electronics, automotive systems and health products like the pacemaker need this mineral to operate. It is mined in Africa and has earned the name of Coltan over the last few years.

Columbite-tantalite : Information about its role in the world under the name 'Coltan'.

Copper

Copper is a common metal throughout the world. It is used for currency, jewelry, plumbing and to conduct electricity. It is a soft, orange-red metal.

Copper : This site talks about its properties, uses and makeup.

A balloon that has been rubbed on wool has a negative charge. When the balloon is held over—but not touching—some bits of paper,

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

This process is known as static electricity

Explanation:

When balloon is rubbed on the wool , a negative charge is usually formed. When the balloon is then held over—but not touching—some bits of paper, some of the bits jump up to the balloon. The bits which jump up to the balloon are positive charged and we know that unlike charges attract.

This process explains static electricity which is when the charges on a material are not in a balanced state.

A 75kg man climbs the stairs to the fifth floor of a building. A total hieght of 16m. His potential energy has increased by

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

11760 joules

Explanation:

Given

Mass (m) = 75kg

Height (h) = 16m

Required

Determine the increment in potential energy (PE)

This is calculated as thus:

PE = mgh

Where g = 9.8m/s²

Substitute values for m, g and h.

P.E = 75 * 9.8 * 16

P.E = 11760 joules
