Answer:

0.1 s

Explanation:

The net force on the log is F - f = ma where F = force due to winch = 2850 N, f = kinetic frictional force = μmg where μ = coefficient of kinetic friction between log and ground = 0.45, m = mass of log = 300 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and a = acceleration of log

So F - f = ma

F - μmg = ma

F/m - μg = a

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = F/m - μg

a = 2850 N/300 kg - 0.45 × 9.8 m/s²

a = 9.5 m/s² - 4.41 m/s²

a = 5.09 m/s²

Since acceleration, a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity of log = 0 m/s (since it was a rest before being pulled out of the ditch), v = final velocity of log = 0.5 m/s and t = time taken for the log to reach a speed of 0.5 m/s.

So, making t subject of the formula, we have

t = (v - u)/a

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

t = (v - u)/a

t = (0.5 m/s - 0 m/s)/5.09 m/s²

t = 0.5 m/s ÷ 5.09 m/s²

t = 0.098 s

t ≅ 0.1 s

NASA developed a reflective foil barrier to help shield spacecraft from heat transfer in space. These reflective barriers are no
morpeh [17]

Answer: Radiation

Explanation: Radiation is the energy that comes from a source in form of electromagnetic waves, subatomic particles, light, or heat which travels through space.

Examples of radiation include the light, heat, and particles emitted from the Sun.

Using a foil barrier to prevent heat transfer is possible because foil has a silver color, and silver reflects light and heat instead of absorbing them. This is the opposite of black surfaces that absorb heat.

So in homes where these foil reflective barriers are used, the transfer of heat through Radiation is highly reduced.

What is the easiest way to increase the magnetic force acting on the rotor in an induction motor?
Schach [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnets are of two major forms namely the permanent magnet and the temporary magnets. Temporary magnets magnetizes and demagnetize easily while permanent magnets does not magnetizes and demagnetize easily.

This permanents magnets are applicable in loudspeakers, generators, induction motor etc.

To increase the

The following will tend to increase the magnetic force acting on the rotor in an induction motor.

1. Increasing the strength of the bar magnet. Increase in strength of the magnet will lead to increase in the magnetic force acting on the rotor.

2. Increase in the magnetic line of force also known as the magnetic flux around the magnet will also increase the magnetic force acting on the rotor.

Which value is represented by the slope of the line?
netineya [11]

The slope of the line is

(change in ' y ' between the ends)  /  (change in ' x ' between the ends)

Slope = (630g - 0) / (70 cm^3 - 0)

Slope = (630 / 70) g/cm^3

<em>Slope =  9.0 g/cm^3</em>
