Pete Zaria works on weekends at Barnaby's Pizza Parlor. His primary responsibility is to fill drink orders for customers. He fil

ls a pitcher full of Cola, places it on the counter top and gives the 2.6-kg pitcher a 8.8 N forward push over a distance of 48 cm to send it to a customer at the end of the counter. The coefficient of friction between the pitcher and the counter top is 0.28. a. Determine the work done by Pete on the pitcher during the 48 cm push. b. Determine the work done by friction upon the pitcher . c. Determine the total work done upon the pitcher . d. Determine the kinetic energy of the pitcher when Pete is done pushing it. e. Determine the speed of the pitcher when Pete is done pushing it.

Answer:

W_n_e_t=7.648512 \approx 7.6J

K.E=0.8J

v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass of pitcher   M= 2.6kg

Force on pitcher f=8.8N

Distance traveled 48cm=>0.48m

Coefficient of friction \mu=0.28

a)Generally frictional force is mathematically given by

F=\mu N

F=0.28*2.6*9.8

F=7.1344N

Generally work done on the pitcher is mathematically given as

W_n_e_t=W_f+W_F

W_f=8.8*0.48=>4.224N\\W_F=7.1344*0.48=>3.424512N

W_n_e_t=4.224-3.424512

W_n_e_t=0.799488\approx 0.8J

b)Generally K.E can be given mathematically as

K.E= W_n_e_t

Therefore

K.E=0.8J

c)Generally the equation for kinetic energy is mathematically represented by

K.E=1/2mv^2

0.8=1/2mv^2

Velocity as subject

v=\sqrt{\frac{K.E*2}{m} }

v=\sqrt{\frac{0.8*2}{2.6} }

v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s

Water drips from a shower head (the sprayer at the top of the shower) and falls onto the floor 2.3 m below. The droplets are fal
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

0.767m

Explanation:

We are given that the time interval between each droplet is equal.

We are also given that the fourth drop is just dripping from the shower when the first hits the floor.

If they fall at the same time interval and we know that the distance between the shower head and floor are the same, they must therefore fall at the same velocity.

The distance between each drop has to be the same given that they fall at equal time intervals.

Let this distance be x.

We can then partition the entire height of the system into three parts (as shown in the diagram).

Hence, we can say that:

x + x + x = 2.3m

3x = 2.3m

=> x = 2.3/3 = 0.767m

Therefore, at the time the first drop hits the floor, the third drop is only 0.767 m below the shower head.

Displacement vectors of 4 km north, 2 km south, 5 km north, and 5 km south combine to a total displacement of
valentinak56 [21]

south = -(north)

Displacement = (4 km north) + (2 km south) + (5 km north) + (5 km south)

Displacement = (4 km north) - (2 km north) + (5 km north) - (5 km north)

Displacement = (4 - 2 + 5 - 5) km north

<u>Displacement = 2 km north </u>

If you wanted to increase your muscular endurance, it would be important to participate in activities that __________.
Maurinko [17]
In order to increase muscular endurance, it is important to take part in activities that increase the size of muscle cells and the amount of blood that is delivered to the cells<span>. The increased size of the muscle cells reuires them to contract less to accomplish the same task; moreover, the increased blood flow helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the blood.</span>
