On a horizontal surface is located

Physics
1 answer:
Ierofanga [76]3 years ago
3 0

By Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on the object is 0, so that

<em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0

where <em>n</em> = magnitude of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the object, and <em>w</em> = weight of the object. Hence <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 196 N, where <em>m</em> = 20 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².

The force of static friction exerts up to 80 N on the object, since that's the minimum required force needed to get it moving, which means the coefficient of <u>static</u> friction <em>µ</em> is such that

80 N = <em>µ</em> (196 N)   →   <em>µ</em> = (80 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.408

Moving at constant speed, there is a kinetic friction force of 40 N opposing the object's motion, so that the coefficient of <u>kinetic</u> friction <em>ν</em> is

40 N = <em>ν</em> (196 N)   →   <em>ν</em> = (40 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.204

And so the closest answer is C.

(Note: <em>µ</em> and <em>ν</em> are the Greek letters mu and nu)

What minimum heat is needed to bring 250 g of water at 20 ∘C to the boiling point and completely boil it away? The specific heat
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:633.8 KJ

Explanation:

Given

mass of water\left ( m\right )=250gm

Initial temperature\left ( T_i\right )=20^{\circ}C

Final temperature \left ( T_f\right )=100^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water \left ( c \right )=4190 J/kg-k

heat of vaporization\left ( L\right )=22.6\times 10^5 J/kg

Heat required for process\left ( Q\right )=heat to raise water temperature from 20 to 100 +Heat to vapourize water completely

Q=mc\left ( T_f-T_i\right )+mL

Q=0.25\times 4190\times \left ( 100-20\right )+0.25\times 22\times 10^5

Q=\left ( 0.838+5.5\right )\times 10^5

Q=6.338\times 10^5J=633.8 KJ

A cannon is mounted on a tower above a wide, level field. The barrel of the cannon is 20 m above the ground below. A cannonball
OLga [1]

<u>Answer:</u>

  Cannonball will be in flight before it hits the ground for 2.02 seconds

<u>Explanation:</u>

  Initial height from ground = 20 meter.

  We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

  In this the velocity of body in vertical direction = 0 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2, we need to calculate time when s = 20 meter.

  Substituting

         20=0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*t^2\\ \\ t = 2.02 seconds

  So it will take 2.02 seconds to reach ground.

The bar ab has a velocity at point a of va = [20,9] m/s and an angular velocity w = 23 rad/s. If the distance between a and b is
DiKsa [7]

speed of point A is given as

v_a = 20.9 m/s

v_a = r*\omega

here r = distance from the axis

so here we have

20.9 = r*23

r  = 0.91 m

now the distance of point A and B is 0.71 m

while the distance of axis from point A is 0.91 m

so distance of axis from point B will be given as

r = 0.91 + 0.71 = 1.62 m

now for the speed of point b is given as

v = r \omega

v = 1.62 * 23

v = 37.26 m/s

so end point B will move with speed 37.26 m/s
