Force is the product of mass and acceleration .
The question is ask to find acceleration.
But acceleration is the ratio of the force and the mass.
where 600kg is the mass and 7kN is the force
NB: kilo is 1000
now we have to multiply 7N by 1000
by doing so you will have 7000N
which is the force.
Now to find the acceleration: force/ mass
which is 7000/600
therefore the maximum acceleration is 11.667
By Newton's second law, the net vertical force acting on the object is 0, so that
<em>n</em> - <em>w</em> = 0
where <em>n</em> = magnitude of the normal force of the surface pushing up on the object, and <em>w</em> = weight of the object. Hence <em>n</em> = <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em> = 196 N, where <em>m</em> = 20 kg and <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s².
The force of static friction exerts up to 80 N on the object, since that's the minimum required force needed to get it moving, which means the coefficient of <u>static</u> friction <em>µ</em> is such that
80 N = <em>µ</em> (196 N) → <em>µ</em> = (80 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.408
Moving at constant speed, there is a kinetic friction force of 40 N opposing the object's motion, so that the coefficient of <u>kinetic</u> friction <em>ν</em> is
40 N = <em>ν</em> (196 N) → <em>ν</em> = (40 N)/(196 N) ≈ 0.204
And so the closest answer is C.
(Note: <em>µ</em> and <em>ν</em> are the Greek letters mu and nu)
My calculations state, not rounding, the mass is 1.8
Answer:
The Richter scale measures the largest wiggle (amplitude) on the recording, but other magnitude scales measure different parts of the earthquake. The USGS currently reports earthquake magnitudes using the Moment Magnitude scale, though many other magnitudes are calculated for research and comparison purposes.
Answer:
The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass = 2.12 kg
Initial speed = 5.49 m/s
Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.229
Distance = 3.89 m
We need to calculate the acceleration of sled
Using formula of acceleration
Where, F = frictional force
m = mass
Put the value into the formula
We need to calculate the speed of the sled
Using equation of motion
Where, v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
a = acceleration
s = distance
Put the value in the equation
Hence, The speed of the sled is 3.56 m/s.
