Answer:
Coefficient of friction will be 0.587
Explanation:
We have given mass of the car m = 500 kg
Distance s = 18.25 m
Initial velocity of the car u = 14.5 m/sec
As the car finally stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec
From second equation of motion



We know that acceleration is given by



So coefficient of friction will be 0.587
Answer:
F_Balance = 46.6 N ,m' = 4,755 kg
Explanation:
In this exercise, when the sphere is placed on the balance, it indicates the weight of the sphere, when another sphere of opposite charge is placed, they are attracted so that the balance reading decreases, resulting in
∑ F = 0
Fe –W + F_Balance = 0
F_Balance = - Fe + W
The electric force is given by Coulomb's law
Fe = k q₁ q₂ / r₂
The weight is
W = mg
Let's replace
F_Balance = mg - k q₁q₂ / r₂
Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system
q₁ = + 8 μC = +8 10⁻⁶ C
q₂ = - 3 μC = - 3 10⁻⁶ C
r = 0.3 m = 0.3 m
Let's calculate
F_Balance = 5 9.8 - 8.99 10⁹ 8 10⁻⁶ 3 10⁻⁶ / (0.3)²
F_Balance = 49 - 2,397
F_Balance = 46.6 N
This is the balance reading, if it is calibrated in kg, it must be divided by the value of the gravity acceleration.
Mass reading is
m' = F_Balance / g
m' = 46.6 /9.8
m' = 4,755 kg
