<span>3.92 m/s^2
Assuming that the local gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2, then the maximum acceleration that the truck can have is the coefficient of static friction multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration, so
0.4 * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3.92 m/s^2
If you want the more complicated answer, the normal force that the crate exerts is it's mass times the local gravitational acceleration, so
20.0 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 196 kg*m/s^2 = 196 N
Multiply by the coefficient of static friction, giving
196 N * 0.4 = 78.4 N
So we need to apply 78.4 N of force to start the crate moving. Let's divide by the crate's mass
78.4 N / 20.0 kg
= 78.4 kg*m/s^2 / 20.0 kg
= 3.92 m/s^2
And you get the same result.</span>
Answer:
10 km/hr/s
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object is given by

where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time
For the car in this problem:
u = 0

t = 6 s
Substituting in the equation,

Answer:
The lose of thermal energy is, Q = 22500 J
Explanation:
Given data,
The mass of aluminium block, m = 1.0 kg
The initial temperature of block, T = 50° C
The final temperature of the block, T' = 25° C
The change in temperature, ΔT = 50° C - 25° C
= 25° C
The specific heat capacity of aluminium, c = 900 J/kg°C
The formula for thermal energy,
<em>Q = mcΔT</em>
= 1.0 x 900 x 25
= 22500 J
Hence, the lose of thermal energy is, Q = 22500 J
