Answer: 0 j

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the box, m = 10 kg

Force with which the box is pulled, F = 50 N

It is moved a distance of 4 m

Force of friction acting on the box, f = 20 N

We need to find the initial kinetic energy the box have. It is clear that the box is at rest initially. As there is no motion in the box at that time. The formula for the kinetic energy of the box is given by :

As v = 0

So, the initial kinetic energy of the box is 0. Hence, this is the required solution.

on the surface of theearth ,the weight of a boy is 400N but on a mountainpeak his weight is 360N,Calculatethe value of ''g' on t
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The value of g at sea level is 9.81 ms^-2.

The boy's mass is constant wherever he is in the universe but his weight will depend on the strength gravity where he is.

By proportion its value on the mountain peak  is (360 /400) * 9.81

= 0.9 * 9.81 = 8.83  ms^-2  to nearest hundredth,  (answer).

Which of the following takes place during a double displacement reaction?
bogdanovich [222]
Double displacement: parts of compounds switch places to form two new compounds

FYI
decomposition: a complex substance breaks down into two or more simple substances

Single displacement: a single substance replaces another substance in a compound

<span>Synthesis: two simple substances combine to form a new complex substance</span>

A small rock is thrown straight up with initial speed v0 from the edge of the roof of a building with height H. The rock travels
Crank

Answer:

v_{avg}=\dfrac{3gH+v_0^2}{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH} }

Explanation:

The average velocity is total displacement divided by time:

v_{avg} =\dfrac{D_{tot}}{t}

And in the case of vertical v_{avg}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{y_{tot}}{t}

where y_{tot} is the total vertical displacement of the rock.

The vertical displacement of the rock when it is thrown straight up from height H with initial velocity v_0 is given by:

y=H+v_0t-\dfrac{1}{2} gt^2

The time it takes for the rock to reach maximum height is when y'(t)=0, and it is

t=\frac{v_0}{g}

The vertical distance it would have traveled in that time is

y=H+v_0(\dfrac{v_0}{g} )-\dfrac{1}{2} g(\dfrac{v_0}{g} )^2

y_{max}=\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}

This is the maximum height the rock reaches, and after it has reached this height the rock the starts moving downwards and eventually reaches the ground. The distance it would have traveled then would be:

y_{down}=\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}+H

Therefore, the total displacement throughout the rock's journey is

y_{tot}=y_{max}+y_{down}

y_{tot} =\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}+\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{2g}+H

\boxed{y_{tot} =\dfrac{2gH+v_0^2}{g}+H}

Now wee need to figure out the time of the journey.

We already know that the rock reaches the maximum height at

t=\dfrac{v_0}{g},

and it should take the rock the same amount of time to return to the roof, and it takes another t_0 to go from the roof of the building to the ground; therefore,

t_{tot}=2\dfrac{v_0}{g}+t_0

where t_0 is the time it takes the rock to go from the roof of the building to the ground, and it is given by

H=v_0t_0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_0^2

we solve for t_0 using the quadratic formula and take the positive value to get:

t_0=\dfrac{-v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH}  }{g}

Therefore the total time is

t_{tot}= 2\dfrac{v_0}{g}+\dfrac{-v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH}  }{g}

\boxed{t_{tot}= \dfrac{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH}  }{g}}

Now the average velocity is

v_{avg}=\dfrac{y_{tot}}{t}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{\frac{2gH+v_0^2}{g}+H }{\frac{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH} }{g} }

\boxed{v_{avg}=\dfrac{3gH+v_0^2}{v_0+\sqrt{v_0^2+2gH} } }
