A 5.50 kg sled is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal road. The sled is pulled a distance of 3.20 m by a force of 25.

kiruha [24]

(a) 69.3 J

The work done by the applied force is given by:

$W=Fd cos \theta$

where:

F = 25.0 N is the magnitude of the applied force

d = 3.20 m is the displacement of the sled

$\theta=30^{\circ}$ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement of the sled

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

$W=(25.0 N)(3.20 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=69.3 J$

(b) 0

The problem says that the surface is frictionless: this means that no friction is acting on the sled, therefore the energy dissipated by friction must be zero.

(c) 69.3 J

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by the applied force is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the sled:

$\Delta K = W$

where

$\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy

W is the work done

Since we already calculated W in part (a):

W = 69.3 J

We therefore know that the change in kinetic energy of the sled is equal to this value:

$\Delta K=69.3 J$

(d) 4.9 m/s

The change in kinetic energy of the sled can be rewritten as:

$\Delta K=K_f - K_i = \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2$ (1)

where

Kf is the final kinetic energy

Ki is the initial kinetic energy

m = 5.50 kg is the mass of the sled

u = 0 is the initial speed of the sled

v = ? is the final speed of the sled

We can calculate the variation of kinetic energy of the sled, $\Delta K$ , after it has travelled for d=3 m. Using the work-energy theorem again, we find

$\Delta K= W = Fd cos \theta =(25.0 N)(3.0 m)(cos 30^{\circ})=65.0 J$

And substituting into (1) and re-arrangin the equation, we find

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 \Delta K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(65.0 J)}{5.50 kg}}=4.9 m/s$

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 39 points and will give branlist asap!

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Graph for object that is not moving: B

Graph for object that is speeding up: D

Explanation:

A.) In order to represent that an object is not moving, you must either show that there is no velocity (0 m/s) or show a position over time graph that is a horizontal line.

Because the position is the same as time increases, the graph shows that there the object must be at rest, as there is no change in position due to velocity. (Velocity must be 0m/s)

B.) In order to represent an object is speeding up, the position time graph must either be a positive exponential function, the velocity time graph must be a positive, linear line, or the acceleration over time graph must be a positive, horizontal line.

Why is D the correct answer? Because if an object is speeding up, you know that the value of its speed (velocity) is increasing at some rate. And since speeding up refers to positive change, the function of velocity over time graph must be a positive function.

What is the difference in the positioning of the Sun, Earth and moon for a lunar eclipse versus a full moon?

Lady bird [3.3K]

When the Moon passes between Sun and Earth, the lunar shadow is seen as a solar eclipse on Earth. When Earth passes directly between Sun and Moon, its shadow creates a lunar eclipse. Lunar eclipses can only happen when the Moon is opposite the Sun in the sky, a monthly occurrence we know as a full Moon.
