Answer:

Fs = 17.66 N

Explanation:

The force of static friction is given by the following formula:

$F_s = \mu R = \mu W\\$

where,

Fs = The force of static friction = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.9

W = weight of sneakers = mg

m = mass of sneakers = 2 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

$F_s = \mu mg\\F_s = (0.9)(2\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)\\$

A jetliner is moving at a speed of 245m/s. The vertical component of the plane's velocity is 40.6 m/s. Determine the magnitude o

Harman [31]

Answer:

Horizontal component of velocity = 241.61 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of a jetliner is 245 m/s

The vertical component of the plane's velocity is 40.6 m/s, $v_y=40.6\ m/s$

We need to find the magnitude of the horizontal component of the plane velocity.

The resultant velocity is given by :

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}$

Where, $v_x$ is the horizontal component of the plane velocity

$v^2=v_x^2+v_y^2\\\\v_x^2=v^2-v_y^2\\\\v_x^2=(245)^2-(40.6)^2\\\\v_x=\sqrt{58376.64}\\\\v_x=241.61\ m/s$

So, the magnitude of the horizontal component of the plane velocity is 241.61 m/s.

The vibrations along a transverse wave move in a direction _________.

GrogVix [38]

Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.

Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.

Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.

Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.

If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.

Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave

A Meteorite Strikes On October 9, 1992, a 27-pound meteorite struck a car in Peekskill, NY, leaving a dent 22 cm deep in the tru

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Acceleration of the meteorite, $a=-38409.09\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

A Meteorite after striking struck a car, v = 0

Initial speed of the Meteorite, u = 130 m/s

Distance covered by Meteorite, s = 22 cm = 0.22 m

We need to find the magnitude of its deceleration. It can be calculated using the third equation of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\dfrac{-(130)^2}{2\times 0.22}$

$a=-38409.09\ m/s^2$

So, the deceleration of the Meteorite is $-38409.09\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
