An orange of mass m falls into a wagon. Assume the orange experiences upward acceleration magnitude a when it comes in contact w

ith the wagon. What is the correct expression for the normal force magnitude F, exerted on the orange?
What is the correct expression for the normal force magnitude Fr exerted on the orange?
Consider upward as the positive direction.
Fn = m(a -g)
Fn = m(a +g)

A car is driving at 85 km/h and the driver spots a stop sign ahead. What coefficient of friction is needed to stop the car at th
almond37 [142]

Answer:

μ = 0.0315

Explanation:

Since the car moves on a horizontal surface, if we sum forces equal to zero on the Y-axis, we can determine the value of the normal force exerted by the ground on the vehicle. This force is equal to the weight of the cart (product of its mass by gravity)

N = m*g (1)

The friction force is equal to the product of the normal force by the coefficient of friction.

F = μ*N (2)

This way replacing 1 in 2, we have:

F = μ*m*g (2)

Using the theorem of work and energy, which tells us that the sum of the potential and kinetic energies and the work done on a body is equal to the final kinetic energy of the body. We can determine an equation that relates the frictional force to the initial speed of the carriage, so we will determine the coefficient of friction.

\frac{1}{2} *m*v_{i}^{2}-(F*d)=  \frac{1}{2} *m*v_{f}^{2}

where:

vf = final velocity = 0

vi = initial velocity = 85 [km/h] = 23.61 [m/s]

d = displacement = 900 [m]

F = friction force [N]

The final velocity is zero since when the vehicle has traveled 900 meters its velocity is zero.

Now replacing:

(1/2)*m*(23.61)^2 = μ*m*g*d

0.5*(23.61)^2 = μ*9,81*900

μ = 0.0315

How much pressure is created by a circular piston that is 0.24 meter in diameter
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

4000 N/m²

Explanation:

Area = πr²

Area = π x 0.12² (diameter/2)

Area = 0.05 m²

Pressure = force/area

Pressure = 200/0.05

Pressure = 4000 N/m²

Hope this helps!

It takes 3 minutes to make toast in a 1500 watt toaster. Calculate how much work is done by the toaster.
REY [17]

Answer: 2.7 x 10^5 joules

Explanation:

Given that:

Time taken = 3 minutes

convert time in minutes to seconds

(Since 1 minute = 60 seconds

3 minutes = 3 x 60 = 180 seconds)

Power of toaster = 1500 watt

Work done by the toaster = ?

Recall that power is the rate of work done per unit time

i.e Power = work/time

work = Power x Time

Work = 1500 watt x 180 seconds

Work = 270000J

Place the result in standard form

270000J = 2.7 x 10^5J

Thus, 2.7 x 10^5 joules of work is done by the toaster.

A ball bearing is projected vertically upwards from the ground with a velocity of 15ms. Calculate the time taken by the ball to
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

t = 3 [s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f}=v_{o}-g*t

where:

Vf = final velocity [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 15 [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

Now replacing we have:

0 = 15 -10*t\\10*t=15\\t= 1.5[s]

Note: In the equation above the gravity acceleration is negative, because the movement of the ball bearing is pointing againts the gravity acceleration.

The time calculated is only when the ball bearing reaches the highest elevation, and it will take the same time for descending, therefore the total time is:

t = 1.5 + 1.5 = 3 [s]
