A 10n force is applied to a 25kg mass to slide it across a frictional surface. What is the acceleration of the mass?

klasskru [66]

Answer: a = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c where c is the coefficient of kinetic friction of the surface

Explanation: We know that, by the second Newton's law, a = F/m

where a is the acceleration, F is the net force and m is the mass of the object.

Then, if the surface is frictionless, the total force applied in the object is 10N, and the mass of the object is 25kg, so the acceleration is:

a =10N/25kg = 0.4m/s^2.

But if the surface is frictional, there will be a force of friction applied in the mass (this depends on the coefficient of friction and the weight of the mass), this means that the acceleration will be reduced.

If = -(9.8*25)*c

where c is a number that is bigger than 0 and smaller than 1, is called the coefficient of kinetic friction.

So the total force is now:

F = (10 - 9.8*25*c)

Then, the acceleration in a frictional surface is equal to:

a = (10 - 9.8*25*c)/25 = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c

lys-0071 [83]

Answer: the maximum heigth of the stadium at ist back wall is 151.32 ft

Explanation:

1. use the position (x) equation in parobolic movement to find the time (t)

565 ft = [frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * cos (35°) * t

t= 3.92 s

2. use the position (y) equation in parabolic movement to find de maximun heigth the ball reaches at 565 ft from the home plate.

y= [[frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * sen (35°) * 3.92 s] - $\frac{32.2 ft/s^{2} *3.92 s^{2} }{2}$

y= 148.32 ft

3. finally add the 3 ft that exist between the home plate and the ball

148.32 ft + 3 ft = 151.32

Answer:

None

Explanation:

It'll be impossible for the project to be eligible for any other LT credits because it can't double dip.

Double dip refers to obtaining money from two sources at the same time or by two separate accounting methods.

This is often regarded, unethical.

padilas [110]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Solar radiation at frequencies of visible light passes through the atmosphere, heating the planet's surface, subsequently this energy is emitted in infrared thermal radiation. This radiation is absorbed by the gases produced by the combustion of fossil fuels. Therefore, the greater the amount of these gases in the atmosphere, the more heat will be trapped in the earth, raising its global temperature.
