Answer:

your friend will wait for you for 2.2 minutes.

Explanation:

Given;

Distance of the journey, d = 50 km

your speed, v₁ = 88.5 km/h

your friends speed, v₂ = 94.5 km/h

The time taken before you reached the end of the trip;

time = \frac{distance }{speed} \\\\t_1 = \frac{d}{v_1} \\\\t_1 = \frac{50}{88.5} \\\\t = 0.565 \ hour

The time taken before your friend reached the end of the trip;

time = \frac{distance }{speed} \\\\t_2 = \frac{d}{v_2} \\\\t_2 = \frac{50}{94.5} \\\\t = 0.529 \ hour \\\\

The difference in time = (0.565 - 0.529) hour

                                     = 0.036 hour

                                     = 0.036 x 60 min

                                     = 2.2 mins

Therefore, your friend will wait for you for 2.2 minutes.

Answer:

0.833

Explanation:

Power = energy / time

Power = force × distance / time

Power = force × velocity

P = (850 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (1.00 m/s)

P = 8330 W

P = 8.33 kW

The efficiency of the motor is therefore:

e = 8.33 kW / 10.0 kW

e = 0.833

21. A 1000-kg automobile moving with a speed of 24 m/s relative to the road collides with a 500-kg automobile initially at rest.
Luda [366]

A truck is moving with less velocity in the direction in which the truck is moving earlier because the truck has more momentum.

<h3 /><h3>In which direction the truck moves?</h3>

A truck is moving with the velocity of 10 m/s in the same direction in which the truck is moving earlier because the truck has more mass so it has more momentum. Due to collision, the velocity of the truck is slow down but can't be stopped because of high momentum in the truck.

So we can conclude that a truck is moving with less velocity in the direction in which the truck is moving earlier because the truck has more momentum.

This is a two part question: What is the force of friction acting on a 100 kg steel slab at rest on a steel floor?
Crazy boy [7]
1) 0N... friction opposes the motion of an object, since the block is at rest there is no motion thus no friction

2) F=ma
= (5.5kg)(30m/s)

You stand on a merry-go-round which is spinning at f = 0:25 revolutions per second. You are R = 200 cm from the center. (a) Find
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s

(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²

(c) μs = 0.5

Explanation:

(a)

The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:

ω = 2πf

where,

ω = angular speed = ?

f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s

Therefore,

ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)

<u>ω = 1.57 rad/s </u>

(b)

The centripetal acceleration can be found as:

ac = v²/R

but,

v = Rω

Therefore,

ac = (Rω)²/R

ac = Rω²

therefore,

ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²

<u>ac = 4.92 m/s² </u>

(c)

In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:

Centripetal Force = Frictional Force

m*ac = μs*R = μs*W

m*ac = μs*mg

ac = μs*g

μs = ac/g

μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>μs = 0.5</u>
