Answer:

The height is  h = 0.5224 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The combined mass of the child and the sled is  m =  58.0 \  kg

    The  speed of the sled is  u = 3.20 \ m/s

Generally applying SOHCAHTOA on the slope which the combined mass is down from

   Here the length of the slope(L)  where the combined mass slides through  is the hypotenuses

   while the height(h) of the height of the slope is the opposite

Hence from SOHCAHTOA

      sin (\theta) =  \frac{h}{L}

=>   Lsin(\theta) = h

Generally from the kinematic equation we have that

   v^2  = u^2 + 2aL

Here the u  is the initial velocity of the combined mass which is zero since it started from rest

 and  a is the acceleration of the combined mass which is mathematically evaluated as

       a =  g * sin (\theta )

      v^2  = u^2 + 2 *  g * sin (\theta )L

=>   2Lsin(\theta ) =  \frac{v^2 - u^2 }{g}

=>   h = \frac{ v^2 - u^2}{2g}

=>   h = \frac{ 3.20^2 - 0^2}{2 * 9.8 }

=>   h = 0.5224 \ m

What is the internal energy of 4.50 mol of N2 gas at 253°C? To solve this
Finger [1]

The internal energy of the gas is 49,200 J

Explanation:

The internal energy of a diatomic gas, such as N_2, is given by

U=\frac{5}{2}nRT

where

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature of the gas

For the gas in this problem, we have:

n = 4.50 (number of moles)

R = 8.31 J/(mol·K) (gas constant)

T=253^{\circ} + 273 = 526 K (absolute temperature)

Substituting, we find:

U=\frac{5}{2}(4.50)(8.31)(526)=49,200 J

A space vehicle accelerates uniformly from 85 m/s at t = 0 to 164 m/s at t = 10.0 s .How far did it move between t = 2.0 s and t
creativ13 [48]

First, we have a change in the velocity from 85 to 164 m/s in 10 sec.

Then, we calculate the <u>acceleration </u>as:

a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i} }{t} =\frac{164-85}{10}=7.9 m/s^2

Hence we need to calculate the velocity of the space vehicle at t = 2 sec using the first equation of motion:

v_{f}=v_{i}+at=85+7.9*2=100.8m/s

Then, using the second equation of motion to calculate the distance:

d=v_{i}  t+\frac{1}{2}at^2

d=100.8*2+\frac{1}{2}*7.9*(2)^2=217.4m

A 1.15 kg book is at rest on the table. What is the magnitude of the normal force that the table is exerting on the book?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

11.27N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1.15kg

Unknown:

Magnitude of the normal force  = ?

Solution:

The normal force is the vertical force exerted by a body on an object.

It can be described as the weight of an object.

 Normal force  = mass x acceleration due to gravity

 Normal force  = 1.15 x 9.8  = 11.27N
