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!

What is gibbs paradox?
mr_godi [17]
This leads to a paradox known as the Gibbs paradox, after Josiah Willard Gibbs. The paradox allows for the entropy of closed systems to decrease, violating the second law of thermodynamics. A related paradox is the "mixing paradox".

Assume that the driver begins to brake the car when the distance to the wall is d=107m, and take the car's mass as m-1400kg, its
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Let let the frictional force needed be F

Work done by frictional force = kinetic energy of car

F x 107 = 1/2 x 1400 x 35²

F = 8014 N

b )

maximum possible static friction

= μ mg

where μ is coefficient of static friction

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

c )

work done by friction for μ = .4

= .4 x 1400 x 9.8 x 107

= 587216 J

Initial Kinetic energy

= .5 x 1400 x 35 x 35

= 857500 J

Kinetic energy at the at of collision

= 857500 - 587216

= 270284 J

So , if v be the velocity at the time of collision

1/2 mv² = 270284

v = 19.65 m /s

d ) centripetal force required

= mv₀² / d which will be provided by frictional force

= (1400 x 35 x 35) / 107

= 16028 N

Maximum frictional force possible

= μmg

= .5 x 1400 x 9.8

= 6860 N

So this is not possible.

A leaf fell from a tree branch. The path it followed is shown in the diagram below.
prisoha [69]

The leaf fell at the crooked path instead of straight down because air currents and gravity applied changing and unbalanced forces to the leaf.

<h3>What is an air current?</h3>

An air current is defined as the changes in atmospheric pressure that causes the movement of air from one area to another.

When a leaf is detached naturally from the tree, it won't fall straight down to the floor but will fall a distance away from the tree due to the action of air current and some unbalanced forces.
