                               Work = (force) x (distance)

The work he did:    Work = (700 N) x (4m)  =  2,800 joules

The rate at which
he did it (power):    Work/time =  2,800 joules/2 sec

                                                =  1,400  joules/sec

                                                =  1,400 watts

                                                =  1.877... horsepower (rounded)

2. Above right: The four positions of the thrown ball with no gravity are
padilas [110]

The characteristics of the projectile launch allows to find the results for the questions about the movement of the ball are:

  • In the attached we see the vertical speed decreases with height and the curve is of the parabolic type.
  • In the movement is several dimensions, each one is independent of the others, the movement in the x axis does not affect the movement in the y axis.

Kinematics studies the motion of bodies looking for relationships between position, velocity and acceleration. In the case of vertical and projectiles launch  the acceleration on the vertical axis is the acceleration of gravity directed downward.

In the attachment we can see the position of the ball for two distances in the case of projectile launching.

We can see that the speed of the ball decreases with height according to the relation

          y = go t - ½ g t²

Where y is the height, g is the initial vertical velocity, g is the acceleration of gravity and t is time.

In all movements in various dimensions we assume that each movement in an . axis is independent

In the case of projectile launching, on the vertical axis there is an acceleration of gravity and on the horizontal axis there is no acceleration, the only parameter that this gives the two movements is the time, which is a scalar.

In conclusion, using the characteristics of the projectile launch, we can find the results for the questions about the movement of the ball are:  

  • In the movement is several dimensions, each one is independent of the others, the movement in the x axis does not affect the movement in the y axis.
  • In the attached we see the vertical speed decreases with height and the curve is of the parabolic type.

A certain light truck can go around a flat curve having a radius of 150 m with a maximum speed of 35.5 m/s. a) What is the coeff
postnew [5]

Answer:

The coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is <u>0.833</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the curve (R) = 150 m

Maximum speed of truck (v) = 35.5 m/s

Let the coefficient of friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck be "μ".

As the truck is moving around a circular curve. So, the force acting on it is centripetal force which acts in the radial inward direction towards the center of the circular curve.

The centripetal force acting on the truck is given as:

F_c=\frac{mv^2}{R}

Now, the friction between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is responsible for providing the necessary centripetal force. So, frictional force is equal to the centripetal force necessary for circular motion.

Frictional force is given as:

f=\mu N

Where, 'N' is the normal force. Since there is no vertical motion, the normal force is equal to weight of truck. So,

N=mg

Therefore, frictional force, f=\mu mg

Now, frictional force = centripetal force

f=F_c\\\\\mu mg=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\\mu = \frac{v^2}{Rg}

Plug in the given values and solve for 'μ'. This gives,

\mu=\frac{(35\ m/s)^2}{(150\ m)(9.8\ m/s^2)}\\\\\mu=\frac{1225\ m^2/s^2}{1470\ m^2/s^2}\\\\\mu=0.833

Therefore, the coefficient of friction present between the roadway and the wheels of the truck is 0.833

When a 5 kg rock is dropped from a height of 6 m on Planet X, it loses 24 J of GPE. What is the acceleration due to gravity on P
yan [13]

Answer:

g = 1.25m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 5kg

Height = 6m

Gravitational potential energy = 24J

To find the acceleration due to gravity;

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

P.E = mgh

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

GPE = mgh

Substituting into the equation, we have;

24 = 5*6*g

24 = 30g

g = 30/24

g = 1.25m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity on Planet X is 1.25m/s².

A ball is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 13 m/s. Using the approximate value of
dem82 [27]

Answer:

v=v0 - gt

Explanation:

The equation for velocity is

v=v0 - gt

where v0=14m/s, g=10m/s^2.

in 1 second:

v=14-10=4m/s

it is positive so direction is upwards

in 2 seconds:

v=14-20=-6m/s

it is negative so direction is downwards
