24. A car is travelling along an expressway at 90 km/h. The driver spots a stalled car and some traffic congestion on the road a

head, and so applies the brakes. The braking action causes a frictional force of 8400 N to act on the 1050 kg car. (a) What is the acceleration of the car when the brakes are applied? (b) How long does it take for the car to stop? (c) How far does the car travel while it is braking?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We convert the speed of the car to ms-1

90 × 1000/3600 = 25 ms-1

a) from;

F= ma

a= F/m

a= 8400/1050 = 8 ms-2

b) from

v= u - at

v= 0

u = 25 ms-1

a= 8 ms-2

t= ?

t = u/a = 25/8 = 3.1 s

From;

v^2 = u^2 - 2as

v= 0 ms-1

u^2 = 2as

s = u^2/2a

s= (25)^2/2 × 8

s= 625/16

s = 39 m

Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 61.8 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

a) Frope= 71.7 N

b) Frope=6.7 N

Explanation:

In the figure the skier is simulated as an object, "a box".

a) At constant velocity we can say that the object is in equilibrium, so we apply the Newton's first law:

∑F=0

Frope=w*sen6.8°

Frope=71.71N

Take into account that w is the weight that is calculated as mass per gravitiy constant:

w=m*g

w=61.8Kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

w=605.64N

b) In this case the system has an acceleration of 0.109m/s2.  Then, we apply Newton's second law of motion:

F=m*a

F=61.8Kg*0.109m/s2

Frope=6.73N

An ice cube of mass 50.0 g can slide without friction up and down a 25.0 degree slope. The ice cube is pressed against a spring
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

a) s = 0.603\,m, b) s = 2.412\,m

Explanation:

a) The system ice cube-spring is modelled by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation. Let assume that height at the bottom is zero:

U_{g} = U_{k}

m\cdot g \cdot s\cdot \sin \theta = \frac{1}{2}\cdot k \cdot x^{2}

s = \frac{k\cdot x^{2}}{2\cdot m\cdot g \cdot \sin \theta}

s = \frac{(25\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot (0.1\,m)^{2}}{2\cdot (0.05\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot \sin 25^{\textdegree}}

s = 0.603\,m

b) The distance travelled by the ice cube is:

s = \frac{(25\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot (0.2\,m)^{2}}{2\cdot (0.05\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot \sin 25^{\textdegree}}

s = 2.412\,m
