A student wants to determine the coefficients of static friction and kinetic friction between a box and a plank. She places the

box on the plank and gradually raises one end of the plank. When the angle of inclination with the horizontal reaches 30o , the box starts to slip and slides 2.5 m down the plank in 4.0 s. Calculate the coefficients of friction.

Answer:

the coefficients of static friction is 0.577

the coefficients of fkinetic friction is 0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

given information

θ = 30°

S = 2.5 m

t = 4 s

- Static friction

F - F(friction) = 0

W sin θ = μs W cos θ  

μs = sin θ/ cosθ

   = tan θ

   = tan 30°

   = 0.577

- kinetic friction

S = v_{0} t + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

v_{0} t = 0

S = \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

a = \frac{2S}{T^{2} } = \frac{2 x 2.5}{4^{2} }

  = 0.3 m/s^{2}

F - F(friction) = m a

W sin θ - μ W cos θ  = m a

mg sin θ - μk mg cos θ  = m a

g sin θ - μk g cos θ  = a

μk = g sin θ  - a / g cos θ

    = 9.8 sin 30° - 0.3 / 9.8 cos 30°

    = 0.54

Answer:

f(3) = - 60

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate f(3) substitute x = 3 into f(x), that is

f(3) = 5(3)² - 7(4(3) + 3)

     = 5(9) - 7(12 + 3)

     = 45 - 7(15)

     = 45 - 105

     = - 60

The list price on slacks is $22, and the list price on jumpers is $37. If Petit’s Clothing Store orders 30 pairs of slacks and 4
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The trade discount is

$235.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Slacks= $22

Jumpers= $37

Number of orders for Slacks= 30

Number of orders for Jumpers= 40

Total cost

22*30=$660

37*40=$1480

=$2140

11% discount can be computed as

=11/100*2140

=$235.4

Which of the following shows why rectangle WXYZ is congruent to rectangle W'X'Y'Z'?
blsea [12.9K]

If you rotated the box 90º, the orrientation would not be the same, so it is not D or B.

After rotating 180º, the box will be in the 1st quadrant. If it moved along the x-axis, it wouldnt be there anymore, and the after-picture shows it in the first quadrant still, so the only answer it can be is C.
