Answer:

the mass of the box is 51.98 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

applied horizontal force, F = 450 N

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.795

constant velocity, v = 1.2 m/s

At constant velocity, the acceleration of the object is zero and the net force will be zero.

F_{Net} = F - F_k\\\\0 = F - F_k\\\\F_k = F\\\\\mu \ N = F\\\\\mu (mg) = F\\\\m = \frac{F}{\mu  g} \\\\m = \frac{405}{0.795 \ \times \ 9.8} \\\\m = 51.98 \ kg

Therefore, the mass of the box is 51.98 kg.

Car A, moving in a straight line at a constant speed of 20. meters per second, is initially 200 meters behind car B, moving in t
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
First, let's express the movement of Car A and B in terms of their position over time (relative to car B)
For car A: y=20x-200   Car A moves 20 meters every second x, and starts 200 meters behind car B
For Car B: y= 15x      Car B moves 15 meters every second and starts at our basis point

Set the two equations equal to one another to find the time x at which they meet:
20x - 200 = 15x
200 = 5x 
x= 40
At time x=40 seconds, the cars meet. How far will Car A have traveled at this time? 
Car A moves 20 meters every second:
20 x 40 = 800 meters

A person using an oxygen mask is breathing air that is 33% oxygen. what is the partial pressure of the o2, when the air pressure
yawa3891 [41]
The partial pressure of the O2 is 36.3 kiloPascal when the air pressure in the mask is 110 kiloPascal based on the isotherm relation. This problem can be solved by using the isotherm relation equation which stated as Vx/Vtot = px/ptot, where V represents volume, p represents the pressure, x represents the partial gas, and tot represents the total gas<span>. Calculation: 33/100 = px/110 --> px = 36.3</span>

A heat pump absorbs heat from the atmosphere at a rate of 30 kW. If work is being done to run this heat pump at a rate of 7.7 kW
Volgvan

Answer:

Option D 3.9

Explanation:

First, you need to use the correct equation which is the following:

COP = Q/W

Where:

Q = heat absorbed

W = work done by the pump

COP = coefficient of perfomance

We have all the data, so, all you need to do is replace in the above expression and you shoould get the correct result:

COP = 30 / 7.7

COP = 3.896

This result you can round it to 3.9. option D.

A row of seats is parallel to a stage at a distance of 90 m from it. At the center and front of the stage is a diffraction horn
Serggg [28]

Answer:

distance between seats = 2*11.10 = 22.20 m

Explanation:

seats row is parallel to a stage with a distance d = 90 m

doorway width = 0.070 m

speaker frequency = 4.00 * 10^4 Hz

Speed of sound = 343 m/s

tone will be heard at

sin \theta = \frac{\lambda}{D}

we know that v =\lambda d

so

sin\theta = \frac{v}{dD}

              = \frac{343}{4.00 * 10^4*0.070}

sin\theta = 0.1225

\theta = 7.036 degree

tan\theta =\frac{x}{d}

[tex]x = d*tan\theta = 90*0.1234 = 11.10 m

distance between seats = 2*11.10 = 22.20 m

What is the speed of the block/bullet system after the collision? express your answer in terms of vi, mw, and mb. hints?
Sonbull [250]
Having said that, 
mV + M0 = (m + M)v; where m = bullet mass, M = block mass, V = bullet velocity upon incoming, and v = the block and bullet velocity (ideal without losses) is the answer you are looking for. Thus, v = V(m/(m + M)) is what you want. m = Mb, M = Mw, and V = Vi.
