How much thermal energy does it take to raise the temperature of 2.5 kg of

5) A person holds a 1.7 kg bucket and lets it move down at

Elena L [17]

Answer:

12.5J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of bucket = 1.7kg

Height = 75cm = 0.75m

Unknown;

Work done on the bucket by the person = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the work done equation;

Work done = force x distance = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

Now, insert parameters and solve ;

Work done = 1.7 x 9.8 x 0.75 = 12.5J

17. A 25 kg block is initially at rest on a rough, horizontal surface. A horizontal force of 75 N is required to set

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

0.30581

0.24464

Explanation:

$\mu_s$ = Coefficient of static friction

$\mu_k$ = Coefficient of kinetic friction

$F_f$ = 75 N

$F_k$ = 60 N

Normal force

$F_n=mg\\\Rightarrow F_n=25\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=245.25\ N$

Frictional force

$F_f=\mu_sF_n\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{F_f}{F_n}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{75}{245.25}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=0.30581$

The coefficient of static friction is 0.30581

Kinetic force

$F_k=\mu_kF_n\\\Rightarrow \mu_k=\frac{F_k}{F_n}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=\frac{60}{245.25}\\\Rightarrow \mu_s=0.24464$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.24464

What information and measurements would you need to calculate the rate of movement?

aliina [53]

When you talk about rate, you will expect that it will be in terms of a time unit. It measures how fast it is going. So, you would expect that the denominator is in time units. For the movement, you can measure this with either distance or velocity.

So, for the first variety, you would need distance and time to measure the rate of how far you go at a certain time. It is also called as velocity. For the second variety, you would need velocity and time to measure the rate of how fast you are going at a certain interval. It is also called as acceleration.

A +27 nCnC point charge is placed at the origin, and a +6 nCnC charge is placed on the xx axis at x=1mx=1m. At what position on

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The position on the x axis is 0.32 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Point charge = 27 nC

Charge = 6 nC

Distance = 1

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of electric field

$\dfrac{kq_{1}}{x^2}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{(r-x)^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{27\times10^{-9}}{x^2}=\dfrac{6\times10^{-9}}{(1-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{27}{x^2}=\dfrac{6}{(1-x)^2}$

$\dfrac{(1-x)^2}{x^2}=\dfrac{27}{6}$

$\dfrac{1-x}{x}=\sqrt{\dfrac{27}{6}}$

$\dfrac{1}{x}=\sqrt{\dfrac{27}{6}}+1$

$x=0.32\ m$

Hence, The position on the x axis is 0.32 m.

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. The point located at the geometric center of an object is called the object's c

zmey [24]

This statement is true. The point located at the geometric center of an object is indeed called the object's center of gravity. Center of gravity is the average of the weight of a resultant of the parallel forces, including all the particles that is passing through its body.
