Answer:

e = 0.46 m

Explanation:

From the laws of friction, frictional force, F is proportional to normal reaction, R.

F₁ = μR

where μ is coefficient of friction; R = mg and g = 9.8 ms⁻²

Also, from Hooke's law, extension, e, in an elastic spring is proportional to applied force.

F₂ = Ke

where K is force constant of the spring

Since the box is just about to move, the coefficient of friction involved is static friction.

The force on the spring equals the frictional force experienced by the box the box; F₁ = F₂

Ke = μR

e = μR/K

where μ = 0.65; R = 18 kg * 9.8 ms⁻²; K = 250 N/m

e = (0.65 * 18 * 9.8)/250

e = 0.46 m

A 1.11 kg piece of aluminum at 78.3 c is put into a glass with 0.210 kg of water at 15.0

ValentinkaMS [17]

M = mass of aluminium = 1.11 kg

$c_{a}$ = specific heat of aluminium = 900

$T_{ai}$ = initial temperature of aluminium = 78.3 c

m = mass of water = 0.210 kg

$c_{w}$ = specific heat of water = 4186

$T_{wi}$ = initial temperature of water = 15 c

T = final equilibrium temperature = ?

using conservation of heat

Heat lost by aluminium = heat gained by water

M $c_{a}$ ( $T_{ai}$ - T) = m $c_{w}$ (T - $T_{wi}$ )

(1.11) (900) (78.3 - T) = (0.210) (4186) (T - 15)

T = 48.7 c

A constant net force of 20 N is applied to a 32kg car, causing it to speed up from 4.0 to 9.0 m/s. How long is the force applied

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

8 seconds

Explanation:

From Newton's second law;

Ft = m(v-u)

F = Force applied

t = time taken

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

20 * t = 32 (9 - 4)

20t = 32 * 5

t = 32 * 5/ 20

t = 8 seconds

A piece of toast weighing 8 grams is flying through the air at 15

Ket [755]

The kinetic energy of toast is 0.06 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Kinetic energy is the way to determine the energy released when an object is in motion. In other times, it can be the energy required to move any object and to make it in motion.

As the mass of the toast is given as 8 g and speed is given as 15 m/s, if we ignore the friction caused by air molecules. Then the kinetic energy is the product of mass and square of velocity.

K.E. = $\frac{1}{2}$ × mass × v²

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{8}{1000} \times 15$

Since, the weight is given in grams , it needed to be converted into kg.

Kinetic energy = 0.06 J

Thus, the kinetic energy of toast is 0.06 J.

Why do we see only one side of the moon from earth?

Anna11 [10]

<span>We see only one side of the moon from earth because the moons period of rotation and revolution are equal. The moon rotates around the Earth at the exact speed as it rotates around its won axis (revolution). The result is: the same side of the moon is facing the Earth. If the moon doesn't rotate on it's axis we on the Earth would see all of the sides of the Moon.</span>
