Kelvins scale is absolute.... we would read it degrees Kelvin if the unit would be written °K but it is only K.

The box leaves position x=0 with speed v0. The box is slowed by a constant frictional force until it comes to rest at position x

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$Ff=m\times \dfrac{V_o^2}{2X_1}$

Explanation:

Given that

At X=0 V=Vo

At X=X1 V=0

As we know that friction force is always try to oppose the motion of an object. It means that it provide acceleration in the negative direction.

We know that

$V^2=U^2-2aS$

$0=V_o^2-2a X_1$

$a=\dfrac{V_o^2}{2X_1}$

So the friction force on the box

Ff= m x a

$Ff=m\times \dfrac{V_o^2}{2X_1}$

Where m is the mass of the box.

On earth, two parts of a space probe weigh 14500 N and 4800 N. These parts are separated by a center-to-center distance of 18 m

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

$F = 1.489*10^{-7} N$

Explanation: Weight of space probes on earth is given by: $W= m*g$

W= weight of the object( in N)

m= mass of the object (in kg)

g=acceleration due to gravity(9.81 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ )

Therefore,

$m_{1} = \frac{14500}{9.81}$

$m_{1} = 1478.08 kg$

Similarly,

$m_{2} = \frac{4800}{9.81}$

$m_{2} = 489.29 kg$

Now, considering these two parts as uniform spherical objects

Also, according to Superposition principle, gravitational net force experienced by an object is sum of all individual forces on the object.

Force between these two objects is given by:

$F = \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}}{R^{2} }$

G= gravitational constant ( $6.67 * 10^{-11} m^{3} kg^{-1} s^{-2}$ )

$m_{1} , m_{2}$ = masses of the object

R= distance between their centres (in m)(18 m)

Substituiting all these values into the above formula

$F = 1.489*10^{-7} N$

This is the magnitude of force experienced by each part in the direction towards the other part, i.e the gravitational force is attractive in nature.

When making a turn, do not have the steering wheel turned in the direction of the turn before beginning the turning maneuver.a)

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

a) True.

Explanation:

If you turn the wheel in the direction of the turn before beginning the turning maneuver then it's possible that there might be not enough space available for turning and also if you are waiting for the traffic to get clear with rear ended then it will get pushed forward onto the coming traffic.

Calcular la rapidez promedio

Vlada [557]

Answer:

v_average = 15 m / s

Explanation:

The average speed can be found in two ways,

* taking the distance traveled and divide it by the time spent

* taking the velocities in each time interval and then finding the weighted average by the time fraction

v_average = 1 / t_total ∑ $v_{i} t_{i}$ vi ti

Let's apply this last equation

Total time is

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 10 + 10 = 20 min

v_average = 10/20 10 + 10/20 20

v_average = 10/2 + 20/2

v_average = 15 m / s
