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

AfilCa [17]
Given : A ball of mass 40 g moving at a velocity of 4 m/s.
To find : Calculate the kinetic energy in joules ?
Solution :
The kinetic energy formula is given by,

where, v is the velocity v=4 m/s
m is the mass m=40 g
Convert g into kg,



Substitute the values,



Therefore, the kinetic energy is 0.32 Joules.

Suppose a moving car has 2000 J of kinetic energy. If the carʹs speed doubles, how much kinetic energy would it then have?
Bond [772]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,

Kinetic energy of the car = 2000 J

speed of the car is doubled

we know,

KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

2000= \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2........(1)

now, speed of the car is doubled

v' = 2 v

KE_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv'^2

KE_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}m(2v)^2

from equation (1)

KE_2 = 4\times \dfrac{1}{2}m(v)^2

KE_2 = 4\times 2000

KE_2 = 8000\ J

Hence, the Kinetic energy would be equal to 8000 J.

The correct answer is option A.
