<h2>
Average speed of transit train is 60 mph</h2>
Explanation:
Average speed of passenger train = 45 mph
Time taken from station A to station B for passenger train = 10:00 - 6:00 = 4 hours
Distance between station A to station B = 45 x 4 = 180 miles.
Time taken from station A to station B for transit train = 4 - 1 = 3 hours
Distance between station A to station B = Average speed of transit train x Time taken from station A to station B for transit train
180 = Average speed of transit train x 3
Average speed of transit train = 60 mph
Average speed of transit train is 60 mph
<h2>
Impulse = 4.9 kgm/s</h2>
Explanation:
Impulse is given by change of momentum.
Mass of softball = 0.49 kg
Initial velocity of softball = 13 m/s
Initial momentum = 0.49 x 13 = 6.37 kgm/s
Final velocity of softball = 23 m/s
Final momentum = 0.49 x 23 = 11.27 kgm/s
Change of momentum = Final momentum - Initial momentum
Change of momentum = 11.27 - 6.37
Change of momentum = 4.9 kgm/s
Impulse = Change of momentum
Impulse = 4.9 kgm/s
Answer:
0.36
Explanation:
The maximum force of friction exerted by the surface is given by:
(1)
where
is the coefficient of friction
N is the normal reaction
The shed's weight is 2200 N. Since there is no motion along the vertical direction, the normal reaction is equal and opposite to the weight, so
N = 2200 N
The horizontal force that is pushing the shed is
F = 800 N
In order for it to keep moving, the force of friction (which acts horizontally in the opposite direction) must be not greater than this value. So the maximum force of friction must be
And substituting the values into eq.(1), we can find the maximum value of the coefficient of friction:
