Answer:

<h3>0.445</h3>

Explanation:

In friction, the coefficient of friction formula is expressed as;

\mu = \frac{F_f}{R}

Ff is the frictional force = Wsinθ

R is the reaction = Wcosθ

Substitute inti the equation;

\mu = \frac{Wsin \theta}{W cos\theta} \\\mu = \frac{sin \theta}{cos\theta} \\\mu = tan \theta

Given

θ = 24°

\mu = tan 24^0\\\mu = 0.445\\

Hence the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the ramp is 0.445

b. A string is wrapped around a pulley of radius 0.05 m and moment of inertia 0.2 kg  m2. If the string is pulled with a force
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

f = 8 N

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Radius of the pulley  = r = 0.05 m

Moment of inertia = (I) = 0.2 kg.m^{2}

Angular acceleration = ∝ = 2 rad/sec

Based on the above information

As we know that

Torque is

= force \times  radius

= f \times r

And,

Torque is also

= moment\ of\ inertia \times angular\ acceleration

= I \times \alpha

So,

We can say that

f \times r = I \times \alpha

f \times 0.05 = 0.2 \times 2

0.05f = 0.4

f = 8 N

We simply applied the above formulas

Which of the following is an example of kinetic mechanical energy?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Kinetic energy must be moving. Potential energy has the ability to move but is not doing so at the moment.

A is likely the answer. But there's lots involved in that kind of motion.

B If the ball is elevated, it implies it is not moving yet. It has potential energy.

C Again, the spring is compressed. It will push something when it moves, but it is not moving yet.

D The load gun's bullet is not moving. It's still potential energy.

E. The mouse trap is set, but it is not moving. When the mouse eats the bait then it's potential energy will transform into kinetic energy.
