A pickup truck is carrying a toolbox, but the rear gate of the truck is missing, so the box will slide out if it is set moving.

The coefficients of kinetic and static friction between the box and the bed of the truck are 0.250 and 0.500, respectively. Starting from rest, what is the shortest time this truck could accelerate uniformly to 36.0m/s (≈ 80.5mph ) without causing the box to slide?

Answer:

t=7.33 s

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law:

\sum F=m*a

because we don't want the box to slide, the acceleration has to be zero.

\sum F=-F_{friction}+F_{truck}=0\\F_{truck}=F_{friction}\\F_{friction}=\µ*m*g=0.500*9.81*m\\F_{friction}=4.91*m

we know that:

F=m*a\\4.91m=m*a\\a=4.91m/s^2

Now having the acceleration, we can use the following formula.

v_f=a*t\\t=\frac{36.0m/s}{4.91m/s^2}\\\\t=7.33s

A: The battery is a store of internal energy (shown as chemical energy). The energy is transferred through the wires to the lamp, which then transfers the energy to the surroundings as light. These are the useful energy transfers - we use electric lamps to light up our rooms.

B: In the case of the light bulb the 95J of energy transferred as heat is wasted energy as it is not useful because the purpose of the device is to produce light.

user100 [1]

Answer:

I₁ = (7.78 i ^ - 6.71 j ^) 10⁻³ J s ,  I₂ = (-12.5 i ^ -14.6 j ^) 10⁻³ J s ,  I₃ = (19.1i ^ + 18.6 j ^) 10⁻³ J s  and I₄ = (-9.14i ^ + 7.24 j ^) 10⁻³ J s

Explanation:

The impulse is equal to the variation of the moment, to apply this relationship to our case, we will assume that initially the mouse was at rest

    I = Δp = m v_{f} -m v₀

    I = m (v_{f}  -v₀)

Bold indicates vector quantities, let's calculate the momentum of each mouse in for the x and y axes

We recommend bringing all units to the SI system

Mouse 1.

It has a mass of 22.3 g = 22.3 10⁻³ kg, a final velocity of (v = 0.349 i ^ - 0.301 j ^) m / s with an initial velocity of zero

    Iₓ = m (v_{fx}  - v₀ₓ)

    Iₓ = 22.3 10⁻³ (0.349 -0)

    Iₓ = 7.78 10⁻³ J s

   I_{y} = m (v_{fy}  -v_{oy} )

   I_{y} = 22.3 10⁻³ (-0.301)

   I_{y} = -6.71 10⁻³ J s

   I₁ = (7.78 i ^ - 6.71 j ^) 10⁻³ J s

Mouse 2

Mass 17.9 g = 17.9 10⁻³ kg

Speed ​​(-0.699 i ^ - 0.815 j ^) m / s

    Iₓ = m (v_{fx}  - v₀ₓ)

    Iₓ = 17.9 10⁻³ (-0.699 -0)

    Iₓ = -12.5 10⁻³ J s

    I_{y} = 17.9 10⁻³ (-0.815 - 0)

    I_{y} = -14.6 10⁻³ J s

   I₂ = (-12.5 i ^ -14.6 j ^) 10⁻³ J s

Mouse 3

Mass 19.1 g = 19.1 10⁻³ kg

Speed ​​(0.745i ^ + 0.975 j ^) m / s

    Iₓ = 19.1 10⁻³ (0.745 -0)

    Iₓ = 14.2 10⁻³ J s

    I_{y} = 19.1 10⁻³(0.975 -0)

    I_{y} = 18.6 10⁻³ J s

    I₃ = (19.1i ^ + 18.6 j ^) 10⁻³ J s

Mouse 4

Mass 10.1 g = 10.1 10⁻³ kg

Speed ​​(-0.905i ^ + 0.717j ^) m / s

    Iₓ = 10.1 10⁻³ (-0.905 -0)

    Iₓ = -9.14 10⁻³ J s

    I_{y} = 10.1 10⁻³ (0.717 -0)

    I_{y} = 7.24 10⁻³ J s

   I₄ = (-9.14i ^ + 7.24 j ^) 10⁻³ J s
