Answer:

0.35

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

\sum Fx = ma

Fm - Ff =ma

Fm is the moving force = Wsin theta

Fm = 4(9.8)sin55

Fm = 32.1N

Ff is the frictional force = nmgcos theta

Ff = n(4)(9.8)cos55

Ff = 22.48n

Acceleration a = 6.0m/s²

Substitute the given values into the formula and get the coefficient of friction

32.11-23.48n = 4(6)

32.11-24= 23.48n

8.11 = 23.48

n = 8.11/23.48

n = 0.35

Hence the coefficient of friction is 0.35

g The electric power needs of a community are to be met by windmills with 40-m-diameter rotors. The windmills are to be located
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given Data

The diameter of the wind mills is d = 40m

Velocity of the air is V = 6 m / s

Required power output is:  P ₀ = 2100 k W

Expression to calculate the exergy of the air is

E = V ² / 2

Substitute the value in above expression

E = ( 6 m / s ) ² / 2

E = 18 m ² / s ² x (1kJ/kg / 1000m²/s²)

E = 0.018 k J / k g

Expression to calculate the density of the air is

P v =m R T

m /v = P  /RT ⋯ ⋯( I )

Here  

m  is the mass of the air,  

v  is the volume of the air,  

P  is the atmospheric pressure,  

T  is the standard temperature at the atmospheric pressure and  

R  is the gas constant

As the density is

ρ = m /V

Substitute the value in expression (I)

ρ = 101  kP a /( 0.287 k J / k g ⋅ K ) ( 298 K )

ρ = 1.180 k g / m ²

Expression to calculate the mass flow rate is

m = ρ A V ⋯ ⋯ ( I I )

Here  A  is the area of the windmill

Expression to calculate the  A  is

A = π /4  d ²

Substitute the value in above expression

A = π /4 ( 40 m ²)

A = 1256.63 m ²

Substitute the value in expression (II)

m = ( 1.180 k g / m ³) ( 1256.63 m ²) ( 6 m / s )

m = 8896.94  k g / s

Expression to calculate the maximum power available to the windmill is

P w = m ( V ² /2 )

Substitute the value in above expression

P w = 8896.94  k g / s ( (6m/s)²/2 )

P w = 160144.92 W  × ( 1 W /1000 k W )

P w = 160.144 k W

Expression to calculate the number of windmills required is

n = P o /P w

Substitute the value in above expression

n=2100kw/160.144kw

n=13.11

If you have 100 W expended over 20 s how much energy did it take?
netineya [11]

Power = (work or energy) / (time)

100 W  =  (energy) / (20 sec)

Energy = 2,000 watt-sec

<em>Energy = 2,000 J</em>

In a binary star system, an unseen component is found to have 8 solar masses. It would be visible if the system were a normal st
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Black Hole

Explanation:

A black hole is a very dense and massive stellar object, which has a field of gravity so large that not even light can escape it.

Since it does not emit light, <u>we cannot see them directly</u>, hence the name of black hole.

So in this case,<u> if the object has a mass of 8 solar masses that is enough to form a black hole</u>, and <u>also cannot be seen</u>, all of this indicates that the object we are talking about is a black hole.

It should be mentioned that although these objects do not emit light, because it cannot escape due to the immense force of gravity, black holes can be detected by a type of radiation emitted on their event horizon due to quantum effects called Hawking radiation .

Lúc 7g bạn an đi từ nhà đến trường với tóc độ trung bình là 20km/h . Bạn đến trường lúc 7g20. Tính khoảng cách từ nhà tới trường
Len [333]

Answer:

Distance = 6.667 kilometres

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Speed = 20 km/h

Departure time = 7:00

Arrival time = 7:20

Time taken = 20 minutes

To calculate the distance travelled from home to school;

First of all, we would have to convert the value of time in minutes to hours.

Conversion:

60 minutes = 1 hour

20 minutes = X hours

Cross-multiplying, we have;

X = 20/60 = 1/3 hours

Mathematically, the distance travelled by an object is calculated by using the formula;

Distance = speed * time

Distance = 20 * 1/3

Distance = 20/3 =

Distance = 6.667 kilometres
