If the mass of an object increases, predict what will happen to the coefficient of sliding friction.

The coefficient of sliding friction will decrease. When mass increases the acceleration deceases, when acceleration/sliding motion decreases, the friction opposing motion will also decrease.

In a first experiment, a sinusoidal sound wave is sent through a long tube of air, transporting energy at the average rate of P_
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a) Ф = 0

b)  P_avg=2*P_avg,1

Explanation:

<u>Givens:</u>

The phase difference is 0, 0.2λ, or 0.5λ  between the waves.  

<u>Part a:  </u>

since the amplitude of the wave is directly proportional to the average rate so that the waves will transport greater energy when Ф = 0  

Part b:  

The two waves are identical to the first wave, the net amplitude is twice the first waves and the travel in the same tube thus

P_avg=2*P_avg,1

9. Luke is an astronaut that moves his position in the space shuttle by climbing a
BartSMP [9]

Explanation:

Remember that power is defined as how much Work is done per unit of time.

P = \frac{dW}{dt}

Work is defined as the amount of force applied across a certain distance.  

W = F*d

Since in both cases of climbing the ladder (on Earth and the moon), Luke coveres the same amount of <em>distance </em>in the same amount of <em>time</em>, we are only left with one difference between the two cases - gravity.

If you were to carry your backpack on the moon with the same load of text books, it would take less force to pick it up on the moon. Therefore, Luke expends less effort on the environment with less gravity - the moon.

To find the difference factor - you would want to divid the gravitational contants between earth and the moon.

(a) How fast must a 3000-kg elephant move to have the same kinetic energy as a 65.0-kg sprinter running at 10.0 m/ s?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

1.4719 m per sec

Explanation:

Hello

Kinetic energy is the energy associated with the movement of objects. Although there are many forms of kinetic energy  

the formula to use is

E=\frac{mv^{2} }{2}

where m is the mass of the object and v the velocity

lets see the kinetic energy of the sprinter running

E=\frac{65 Kg*10(\frac{m}{s} ^)){2} }{2} \\\\E=\frac{65 *100 }{2} \\E=3250 Joules\\\\

Now, the elephant must have the same kinetic energy

E=\frac{m*v_{2} ^{2} }{2} \\\\E*2=m*v_{2} ^{2}\\ \frac{2E}{m} =v_{2} ^{2} \\\sqrt{\frac{2E}{m} } =v_{2}  \\\\\\v_{2} =\sqrt{\frac{2*3250}{3000} }\\ \\v_{2} =1.4719 \frac{m}{s} \\\\

it works only the positive root, so the elephant must to  walk  to 1.4719 m/s to have the same kinetic energy.

Have a great day

An elevator lifts a total mass of 1.1×103 kg a distance of 40.0 m in 12.5 s. How much power does the elevator deliver?
Harman [31]

The power delivered by the elevator is 34496 W.

<h3>What is power?</h3>

Power is the rate at which energy is used up.

To calculate the power delivered by the elevator, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • P = mgh/t.............. Equation 1

Where:

  • P = Power delivered by the elevator
  • m = Total mass on the elevator
  • g = acceleration due to gravity
  • h = Height

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 1.1×10³ kg
  • h = 40 m
  • t = 12.5 s
  • g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • P = 1.1×10³×40×9.8/12.5
  • P = 34496 W.

Hence, the power delivered by the elevator is 34496 W.
