A 35.8 kg box initially at rest is pushed 2.38 m along a rough, horizontal floor with a constant applied horizontal force of 108

.915 N. If the coefficient of friction between box and floor is 0.256, find the work done by the applied force. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of J.

Answer:

The work done by the applied force is 259.22 J.

Explanation:

The work done by the applied force is given by:

W = F*d

Where:

F: is the applied horizontal force = 108.915 N

d: is the distance = 2.38 m  

Hence, the work is:

W = F*d = 108.915 N*2.38 m = 259.22 J

Therefore, the work done by the applied force is 259.22 J.

I hope it helps you!

Yvette hangs a 2.4kg bird feeder in the middle of a rope tied between two trees, the feeder creates a
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

a) 0.049 m

b) Yes, increase

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram.

In the y direction, there are three forces acting on the feeder.  Two vertical components of the tension forces in each rope pulling up, and weight force pulling down.

Apply Newton's second law to the feeder in the y direction.

∑F = ma

2Ty − mg = 0

Ty = mg/2

Let's say the distance the rope sags is d.  The trees are 4m apart, so the feeder is 2m horizontally from either tree.  Using Pythagorean theorem, we can find the length of the rope on either side:

L² = 2² + d²

L = √(4 + d²)

Using similar triangles, we can write a proportion using the forces and distances.

Ty / T = d / L

Substitute:

(mg/2) / T = d / √(4 + d²)

Solve for d:

Td = mg/2 √(4 + d²)

T² d² = (mg/2)² (4 + d²)

T² d² = (mg)² + (mg/2)² d²

(T² − (mg/2)²) d² = (mg)²

d² = (mg)² / (T² − (mg/2)²)

d = mg / √(T² − (mg/2)²)

Given m = 2.4 kg and T = 480 N:

d = (2.4) (9.8) / √(480² − (2.4×9.8/2)²)

d = 0.049 m

b) If a bird lands on a feeder, this will increase the tension in the rope to support the bird's weight.

A pitcher can throw a baseball at about 90 miles/hour (about 39.6 m/s). What is the ratio of the kinetic energy to the rest ener
tester [92]

Answer:

8.71*10^{-15}

Explanation:

The rest energy is the energy associated with the base ball at zero velocity which is expressed as

Rest energy=mc^{2}\\

Note: the speed C is the speed of light which is expressed as 3*10^8

while the kinetic energy is the energy associated with the ball during its motion and is expressed as

Kinetic energy=1/2mv^{2}

the ratio can be expressed as

\frac{Kinetic Energy}{Rest Energy}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}mv^{2} }{mc^{2}}\\since V=39.6m/s\\C=3*10^{8}m/s\\\frac{Kinetic Energy}{Rest Energy}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}39.6^{2} }{(3*10^8)^{2}} \\\frac{Kinetic Energy}{Rest Energy}=\frac{784.08}{9*10^{16}} \\\frac{Kinetic Energy}{Rest Energy}=8.71*10^{-15}

A pool ball moving 1.33 m/s strikes an identical ball at rest. Afterward, the first ball moves 0.750 m/s at a 33.30 angle. What
kramer

Explanation:

We need to apply the conservation law of linear momentum to two dimensions:

Let p_{1} = momentum of the 1st ball

p_{2} = momentum of the 2nd ball

In the x-axis, the conservation law can be written as

(p_{1} \cos \theta_{1})_{i} + (p_{2} \cos \theta_{2})_{i} = (p_{1} \cos \theta_{1})_{f} + (p_{2} \cos \theta_{2})_{f}

or

(m_{1}v_{1})_{i}= (m_{1}v_{1}\cos \theta_{1})_{f} + (m_{2}v_{2}\cos \theta_{2})_{f}

Since we are dealing with identical balls, all the m terms cancel out so we are left with

(v_{1})_{i} = (v_{1})_{f}\cos \theta_{1} +  (v_{2})_{f}\cos \theta_{2}

Putting in the numbers, we get

1.33 = (0.750) \cos(33.30)  + (v_{2})_{f} \cos \theta_{2}

=  > (v_{2})_{f} \cos \theta_{2} = 0.703

In the y-axis, there is no initial y-component of the momentum before the collision so we can write

0 = (v_{1}\sin \theta_{1})_{f} + (v_{2}\sin \theta_{2})_{f}

or

=  > (v_{2})_{f} \sin \theta_{2} = (0.750) \sin(33.30)  = 0.412

Taking the ratio of the sine equation to the cosine equation, we get

\frac{ \sin \theta _{2}}{ \cos \theta_{2} }  =  \tan \theta_{2}  =  \frac{0.412}{0.703}  = 0.586

or

\theta_{2}  =  { \tan}^{ - 1} (0.586) = 30.4

Solving now for (v_{2})_{f},

(v_{2})_{f}  =  \frac{0.412}{ \sin(30.4) }  = 0.815 \:  \frac{m}{s}
