Answer:

4.808m

Explanation:

Force is given as:

F = ma

Since the force is a frictional force,

Fr = F

Fr = ma

Frictional force, Fr, is given as:

-umg = ma

a = -ug = -0.13 * 9.8 = -1.274 m/s²

Using one of the equations of motion, we can find the distance:

v² = u² + 2as

Since the box comes to a halt, v = 0m/s:

0 = u² + 2as

s = -u²/2a

s = -(-3.5²)/(2 * 1.274) = 4.808m

finlep [7]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Elastic collision is defined as a collision where the kinetic energy of the system remains same. Both linear momentum and kinetic energy are conserved in case of an elastic collision.

Inelastic collision is defined as a collision where kinetic energy of the system is not conserved whereas the linear momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy may due to the conversion to thermal energy or sound energy or may be due to the deformation of the materials colliding with each other.

As given in the problem, before the collision, total momentum of the system is 2.5~Kg~m~s^{-1} and the kinetic energy is 5~J. After the collision, the total momentum of the system is  2.5~Kg~m~s^{-1}, but the kinetic energy is reduced to 4~J. So some amount of kinetic energy is lost during the collision.

Therefor the situation describes an inelastic collision (and it could NOT be elastic).

k0ka [10]

Answer:

1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C

Explanation:

\epsilon_0 = Permittivity of free space = 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

A = Area = 6\times 10^{-9}\ m^2

d = Thickness = 1.6\times 10^{-8}\ m

k = Dielectric constant = 5.4

V = Voltage = 86.2 mV

Charge is given by

Q=CV\\\Rightarrow Q=k\epsilon\dfrac{A}{d}V\\\Rightarrow Q=5.4\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times \dfrac{6\times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-8}}\times 86.2\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow Q=1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C

The charge on the outer surface is 1.54481175\times 10^{-12}\ C

A police car is stopped at a red light facing west. When the light turned green, a sports car speeds past it heading west at wit
frutty [35]

Answer:

14 seconds

Explanation:

Distance covered by sports car is measured with 21*t where t is time.

Distance covered by police is measured with at^2/2(t-time, a-acceleration) as it doesnt have starting velocity. If the distances are equal(police catches sport car)

then we have 21t=3/2*t^2 Solving this equation we get t=14 & t=0;

excluding the starting point we have 14 seconds

A charged particle A exerts a force of 2.45 μN to the right on charged particle B when the particles are 12.2 mm apart. Particle
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

F_2 = 1.10 \mu N

Explanation:

As we know that the electrostatic force is a based upon inverse square law

so we have

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

now since it depends inverse on the square of the distance so we can say

\frac{F_1}{F_2} = \frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}

now we know that

r_2 = 18.2 mm

r_1 = 12.2 mm

also we know that

F_1 = 2.45 \mu N

now from above equation we have

F_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} F_1

F_2 = \frac{12.2^2}{18.2^2}(2.45\mu N)

F_2 = 1.10 \mu N
