Answer:

7.35m/s²

Explanation:

From the question we are not told what to find but we can as well find the acceleration of the wagon.

According to newton second law of motion

\sum F_x = ma_x\\Fm - Ff = ma_x\\Fm - \mu R = ma_x\\Fm- \mu mg = ma_x\\

Fm is the moving force = 410N

\mu is the coefficient of friction = 0.18

m is the mass = 45kg

g is the acceleration dur to gravity = 9.8m/s²

a is the acceleration of the wagon

Substitute the given data into the equation ang get ax

Fm- \mu mg = ma_x\\410 - (0.18)(9.8)(45) = 45a_x\\410 - 79.38 = 45a_x\\330.62 = 45a_x\\a_x = 330.62/45\\a_x = 7.35m/s^2\\

Hence the acceleration of the wagon is 7.35m/s²

A speed truck locks it’s brakes and it skids to a stop. If the truck’s total mass were doubled, it’s skidding distance would be?
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The skidding distance would be doubled

Explanation:

When the truck applies the brakes and slows down, its motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, so its skidding distance can be found by using the suvat equation

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v = 0 is the final velocity (zero since the truck comes to a stop)

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the skidding distance

The acceleration can also be written as

a=\frac{F}{m}

where F is the force applied by the brakes and m the mass of the truck. Substituting into the previous equation,

-u^2 = 2\frac{F}{m}s\\s = -\frac{mu^2}{2F}

We see that the skidding distance is proportional to the mass: therefore, if the mass of the truck is doubled, the skidding distance will double as well.

You are working in a shoe test laboratory measuring the coefficients of friction for running shoes on a variety of surfaces. The
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

Since the static frictional force is the maximum force applied just before sliding, our frictional force, F is 300 N.

Since F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = normal force = 400 N (which is the downward force applied against the surface).

So, μ = F/N

= 300 N/400 N

= 3/4

= 0.75

So, the  coefficient of static friction μ = 0.75
