A 200-N force acts on a 10-kg object. The acceleration of the object is

A crate rests on a flatbed truck which is initially traveling at 17.9 m/s on a level road. The driver applies the brakes and the

Answer:

The minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

Explanation:

The minimum coefficient of friction required to keep the crate from sliding can be found as follows:

$-F_{f} + F = 0$

$-F_{f} + ma = 0$

$\mu mg = ma$

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

Where:

μ: is the coefficient of friction

m: is the mass of the crate

g: is the gravity

a: is the acceleration of the truck

The acceleration of the truck can be found by using the following equation:

$v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2ad$

$a = \frac{v_{f}^{2} - v_{0}^{2}}{2d}$

Where:

d: is the distance traveled = 46.1 m

$v_{f}$ : is the final speed of the truck = 0 (it stops)

$v_{0}$ : is the initial speed of the truck = 17.9 m/s

$a = \frac{-(17.9 m/s)^{2}}{2*46.1 m} = -3.48 m/s^{2}$

If we take the reference system on the crate, the force will be positive since the crate will feel the movement in the positive direction.

$\mu = \frac{a}{g}$

$\mu = \frac{3.48 m/s^{2}}{9.81 m/s^{2}}$

$\mu = 0.35$

Therefore, the minimum coefficient of friction required is 0.35.

I hope it helps you!

A swing has a period of 10 seconds. What is its frequency ?

kow [346]

Frequency = 1 / (period)

Frequency = 1 / (10 seconds) = (1/10) ( / second) = 0.1 per second = <em>0.1 Hz</em>.

TEA [102]

Answer:

1. False

2. True

3. True

Explanation:

1- False —> The relation between electric potential and electric field is given such that

$-\int\limits^a_b \vec{E}d\vec{l} = V_{ab}$

Therefore, for a uniform E field, electric potential is linearly proportional to the distance.

2- True —> The electric field lines always cross the equipotential lines perpendicularly.

3- True —> In order to be a potential difference, one source of electric field is enough. The electric potential will decrease radially according to the following formula:

$V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}\frac{q}{r^2}$

There is no test charge in the formula, only the source charge. Even when there is no test charge, the potential difference between points in space can exist.
