Answer:
3.69 m/s
Explanation:
Forces :
mgsin Θ - mumgcosΘ = ma
g x sinΘ - mu x g x cosΘ = a
9.8 x sin 21 - 0.53 x 9.8 x cos 21 = a
a = -1.337 m/s²
so you have final velocity = 0 m/s
initial velocity = ? m/s
Given d = 5.1 m
By kinematics
vf² = vo² + 2ad
0 = vo² + 2 x -1.337*5.1
vo = 3.69 m/s
Answer:
potential energy. noun. the energy of a body or system as a result of its position in an electric, magnetic, or gravitational field. It is measured in joules (SI units), electronvolts, ergs, etcSymbol: E p, V, U, φ Abbreviation: PE.
Explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:
According to Newton's third law that each force has an equal and opposite reaction force in this case both of the jars will exert the same force an each other
. The force is given by

Where, F = force,
,
,
and Distance(r) = 0.42 m.
Substitute the values in the formula.




As the box is moving with a constant velocity, the two forces acting on the box are canceling each other.
Then friction force = 80 Newtons but in the opposite direction.
Friction force = Mu * Normal force exerted by ground = Mu * weight of box
So we find Mu.
Mu = coefficient of friction between box and horizontal surface
= Force of friction / weight = 80 / 50 * 9.81 = 0.163
When an identical box is placed on top, the force of friction is
= Mu * total weight = 0.163 * (50+50) * 9.81 = 159.9 Newtons
