A ferry approaches shore, moving north with a speed of 6.2 m/s relative to the dock. A person on the ferry walks from one side o
jasenka [17]

Speed of Ferry is towards North with magnitude 6.2 m/s

Here if we assume that North direction is along Y axis and East is along X axis then we can say

\vec v_f = 6.2 \hat j

Now a person walk on ferry with speed 1.5 m/s towards east with respect to Ferry

so it is given as

\vec v_{pf} = 1.5 \hat i

also by the concept of relative motion we know that

\vec v_{pf} = \vec v_p - \vec v_f

now plug in all values in it

1.5 \hat i = \vec v_p - 6.2 \hat j

\vec v_p = 1.5 \hat i + 6.2 \hat j

now if we need to find the speed of the person then we need to find its magnitude

so it is given as

v = \sqrt{1.5^2 + 6.2^2}

v = 6.37 m/s

3. A 2kg wooden block whose initial speed is 3 m/s slides on a smooth floor for 2 meters before it comes to a
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Calculating Coefficient of friction is 0.229.

Force is 4.5 N that keep the block moving at a constant speed.

Explanation:

We know that speed expression is as \mathrm{V}^{2}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2}+2 . \mathrm{a} . \Delta \mathrm{s}.

Where, {V}_{i} is initial speed, V is final speed, ∆s displacement and a acceleration.

Given that,

{V}_{i} =3 m/s, V = 0 m/s, and  ∆s = 2 m

Substitute the values in the above formula,

0=3^{2}-2 \times 2 \times a

0 = 9 - 4a

4a = 9

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} is the acceleration.

Calculating Coefficient of friction:

\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=\mu \times \mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{g}

Compare the above equation

\mu \times m \times g=m \times a

Cancel "m" common term in both L.H.S and R.H.S

\text { Equation becomes, } \mu \times g=a

\text { Coefficient of friction } \mu=\frac{a}{g}

\mathrm{g} \text { on earth surface }=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

\mu=\frac{2.25}{9.8}

\mu=0.229

Hence coefficient of friction is 0.229.

calculating force:

\text { We know that } \mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=2 \times 2.25 \quad(\mathrm{m}=2 \mathrm{kg} \text { given })

F = 4.5 N

Therefore, the force would be <u>4.5 N</u> to keep the block moving at a constant speed across the floor.

When an object travels a large distance in a small amount of time, the object's speed is
Kisachek [45]
If I were to go from the United States to China in one second, that's a large distance in an incredibly short time. I'd say that's pretty fast.

If I were to go from my room to the door of my room in a year, then that would be unbearably slow.
