A 20 kg wagon is rolling to the right across a floor. A person attempts to catch and stop the crate and applies a force of 70 N,

180.0 on it. If the coefficient of friction is 0.18, calculate the deceleration rate of the wagon as it is caught.

Answer:

1.736m/s²

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

\sum F_x = ma_x\\

Fm - Ff = ma_x\\ where;

Fm is the moving force = 70.0N

Ff is the frictional force acting on the body

Ff = \mu R\\Ff = \mu mg\\

\mu is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

a is the acceleration/deceleration

The equation becomes;

Fm - Ff = ma_x\\Fm - \mu mg = ma\\

Substitute the given parameters

Fm - \mu mg = ma\\70 - 0.18(20)(9.8) = 20a\\70-35.28 = 20a\\34.72 = 20a\\a = \frac{34.72}{20}\\a =  1.736m/s^2\\

Hence the deceleration rate of the wagon as it is caught is 1.736m/s²

Answer:

a) True

Explanation:

A program-specific message provided to an individual or group with the intention of raising awareness of a health condition, motivating behavior change, removing perceived barriers to participating in a health habit, or something else relating to the program's aims and objectives. The most effective intervention messages are usually theory-based and culturally adapted.

A defibrillator passes 14.0 A of current through the torso of a person for 0.0300 s. How much charge moves in coulombs?
krek1111 [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

4.2 C

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The charge (Q) moving is the product of the current(I) flowing through the torso of the person and the time taken (t) for the flow.

i.e

Q = I x t

Where;

I = current = 14.0A

t = time taken  = 0.0300s

Substituting the values of I and t into the equation above gives

Q = 14.0 x 0.0300

Q = 4.2 C

Therefore quantity of charge moving is 4.2 C

A long, straight, cylindrical wire of radius R carries a current uniformly distributed over its cross section.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall solve this question with the help of Ampere's circuital law.

Ampere's ,law

∫ B dl = μ₀ I , B is magnetic field at distance x from the axis within wire

we shall find magnetic field at distance x . current enclosed in the area of circle of radius x

=  I x π x²  / π R²

= I x²  /  R²

B x 2π x = μ₀  x current enclosed

B x 2π x = μ₀  x  I x²  /  R²

B =  μ₀   I x  / 2π R²

Maximum magnetic B₀ field  will be when x = R

B₀ = μ₀I   / 2π R

Given

B = B₀ / 3

μ₀   I x  / 2π R² = μ₀I   / 2π R x 3

x = R / 3

b ) The largest value of magnetic field is on the surface of wire

B₀ = μ₀I   / 2π R

At distance x outside , let magnetic field be B

Applying Ampere's circuital law

∫ B dl = μ₀ I

B x 2π x = μ₀ I

B = μ₀ I / 2π x

Given B = B₀ / 3

μ₀ I / 2π x = μ₀I   / 2π R x 3

x = 3R .

What does KE mean? *100 pts*
Alchen [17]

Answer:

it simply means KINETIC ENERGY

Explanation:

In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes
