55 Kg has a weight of 55x9.8= 539 N
That is equal to the Normal force.
The static friction = 0.19 x 539 = 102.4 N

How much potential energy foes a 5kg mass have when its 2 meters above the ground?(Hint :PE=m*g*h)

frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 5 × 9.8 × 2

We have the final answer as

A Michelson interferometer uses light from a sodium lamp. Sodium atoms emit light having wavelengths 589.0 nm and 589.6 nm. The

DIA [1.3K]

The distance mirror M2 must be moved so that one wavelength has produced one more new maxima than the other wavelength is;

We are given;

Wavelength 1; λ₁ = 589 nm = 589 × 10⁻⁹ m

Wavelength 2; λ₂ = 589.6 nm = 589.6 × 10⁻⁹ m

We are told that L₁ = L₂. Thus, we will adopt L.

Formula for the number of bright fringe shift is;

m = 2L/λ

Thus;

For Wavelength 1;

m₁ = 2L/(589 × 10⁻⁹)

For wavelength 2;

m₂ = 2L/(589.6)

Now, we are told that one wavelength must have produced one more new maxima than the other wavelength. Thus;

m₁ - m₂ = 2

Plugging in the values of m₁ and m₂ gives;

(2L/589) - (2L/589.6) = 2

divide through by 2 to get;

L[(1/589) - (1/589.6)] = 1

L(1.728 × 10⁻⁶) = 1

L = 1/(1.728 × 10⁻⁶)

L = 578790.67 nm

L = 57.88 mm

(a) Calculate the force (in N) needed to bring a 1100 kg car to rest from a speed of 85.0 km/h in a distance of 125 m (a fairly

nasty-shy [4]

(a) -2451 N

We can start by calculating the acceleration of the car. We have:

$u=85.0 km/h = 23.6 m/s$ is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

d = 125 m is the stopping distance

So we can use the following equation

$v^2 - u^2 = 2ad$

To find the acceleration of the car, a:

$a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2d}=\frac{0-(23.6 m/s)^2}{2(125 m)}=-2.23 m/s^2$

Now we can use Newton's second Law:

F = ma

where m = 1100 kg to find the force exerted on the car in order to stop it; we find:

$F=(1100 kg)(-2.23 m/s^2)=-2451 N$

and the negative sign means the force is in the opposite direction to the motion of the car.

(b) $-1.53\cdot 10^5 N$

We can use again the equation

$v^2 - u^2 = 2ad$

To find the acceleration of the car. This time we have

$u=85.0 km/h = 23.6 m/s$ is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity of the car

d = 2.0 m is the stopping distance

Substituting and solving for a,

$a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2d}=\frac{0-(23.6 m/s)^2}{2(2 m)}=-139.2 m/s^2$

So now we can find the force exerted on the car by using again Newton's second law:

$F=ma=(1100 kg)(-139.2 m/s^2)=-1.53\cdot 10^5 N$

As we can see, the force is much stronger than the force exerted in part a).
