How long must a tow truck apply a force of 600 N to increase the speed of a 1,500 kg car at rest to 2 m/s?

Physics

The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force, F = 600 N</em>
  • <em>mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s</em>

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; <em>which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.</em>

F = ma

F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s

Thus, the time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

Write the equations of motions​
Sav [38]

Answer:

In physics, equations of motion are equations that describe the behavior of a physical system in terms of its motion as a function of time.[1] More specifically, the equations of motion describe the behaviour of a physical system as a set of mathematical functions in terms of dynamic variables. These variables are usually spatial coordinates and time, but may include momentum components. The most general choice are generalized coordinates which can be any convenient variables characteristic of the physical system.[2] The functions are defined in a Euclidean space in classical mechanics, but are replaced by curved spaces in relativity. If the dynamics of a system is known, the equations are the solutions for the differential equations describing the motion of the dynamics.

A 50 Kg box sits at rest on a 30 degree ramp where the coef of static friction is 0.5773. If your push was directed at an angle
emmasim [6.3K]

<u>Given data:</u>

m= 50 Kg,

W= m×g = 50 × 9.81 = 490.5 N

ramp angle (α) = 30 degrees,

coefficient of friction (μs) = 0.5773,

Push at an angle (Θ) = 40 degrees,

Determine: Push to get box move up (P)=?

From the figure,

Resolving the forces along the plane

W sinα + μs.R = P cos Θ       --------------------- (i)

Resolving the forces perpendicular to the inclined plane

W cosα = R+Psin Θ  =>  R= W cosα - Psin Θ -------------- (ii)

Solving (i) and (ii) and keeping <em>μs = tan Φ, Φ = Θ </em>

<em>Pmin = W sin( α +Θ  )</em>

<em>          = W[ sin α.Cos Θ + cos α.sin Θ]</em>

<em>           = 490.5 [ (sin 30.cos40) + (cos30.sin 40)]</em>

<em>           = 460.9 N</em>

<em>Minimum push required to move the box up the ramp is 460.9 N</em>

Answer:

Alfred Wegener

Explanation: Continental drift was a theory that explained how continents shift position on Earth's surface. Set forth in 1912 by Alfred Wegener, a geophysicist and meteorologist, continental drift also explained why look-alike animal and plant fossils, and similar rock formations, are found on different continents. Though most of Wegener's observations about fossils and rocks were correct, he was outlandishly wrong on a couple of key points. For instance, Wegener thought the continents might have plowed through the ocean crust like icebreakers smashing through ice.
