A box of mass 60 kg is at rest on a horizontal floor that has a static coefficient of friction of 0.6 and a kinetic coefficient

gavmur [86]

Answer:

a) The minimum force required to start moving the box is 352.86 N

b) i) The friction force for the box in motion is 147.025 N

ii) The acceleration of box is 4.21625 m/s²

Explanation:

The parameters of the box at rest and the floor are;

The mass of the box = 60 kg

The static coefficient friction of the floor = 0.6

The kinetic coefficient friction of the floor = 0.25

Frictional force = Normal force × Friction coefficient

For an horizontal floor and the box laying on the floor, we have;

The normal force = The weight of the box = Mass of the box × Acceleration due to gravity, g

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

The weight of the box = 60 × 9.81 = 588.6 N

a) The static coefficient gives the frictional force observed by the box and which must be surpassed to bring about motion

Therefore;

The minimum force required to start moving the box = The static frictional force = Weight of the box × The static coefficient of friction

The minimum force required to start moving the box = 588.1 × 0.6 = 352.86 N

The minimum force required to start moving the box = 352.86 N

b) i) When an horizontal force of 400 N is applied, the applied force is larger than the static friction force, and the box will be in motion with the kinetic coefficient of friction being the source of friction

The friction force for the box in motion = 588.1 × 0.25 = 147.025 N

ii) The force, F with the box is in motion, is given as follows;

F = Mass of box × Acceleration of box, a = Applied force - Kinematic friction force

F = 60 × a = 400 - 147.025 = 252.975 N

60 × a = 252.975 N

a = 252.975 N/(60 kg) = 4.21625 m/s²

Acceleration of box, a = 4.21625 m/s².

A woman is applying 300N/m2 of pressure on to door with her hand. Her hand has area of 0.02m2. Work out the force being applied

never [62]

Answer:

6N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure applied by the woman = 300N/m²

Area = 0.02m²

Unknown:

Force applied = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force per unit area on a body

Pressure = $\frac{force}{area}$

Force = Pressure x area

Force = 300 x 0.02 = 6N

A sinusoidal electromagnetic wave is propagating in vacuum. At a given point P and at a particular time, the electric field is i

olasank [31]

Answer:

a

The direction of the wave propagation is the negative z -axis

b

The amplitude of electric and magnetic field are $A_E= 3.35*10^5 V/m$ ,

$A_M= 1.12 *10^{-3} T$ respectively

Explanation:

According to right hand rule, your finger (direction of electric field) would be pointing in the positive x-axis i.e towards your right let your palms be face toward the direction of the magnetic field i.e negative y-axis (toward the ground ) Then anywhere your thumb stretched out is facing is the direction of propagation of the wave here in this case is the negative z -axis

The Intensity of the wave is mathematically represented as

$I = \frac{1}{2} c \epsilon _O E_{rms}^2$
