a father pulls his young daughter on a sled (where the combined mass of his daughter and the sled are 40 kg) with a constant vel

ocity up a snowy hill that is inclined at 14 to the horizontal. a) if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled's runners and the snow is 0.15, what is the tension force of the rope on which the father pulls

Answer:

Explanation:

We are not told what angle the pull rope is to any other reference. That could make a huge difference in the result.

If we ASSUME that the rope pulls parallel to the slope

Then , if T is rope tension

                                  F = ma

T - mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = m(0)

                                 T = mg(sinθ + μcosθ)

                                 T = 40(9.8)(sin14 + 0.15cos14)

                                 T = 151.88677... 150 N

If the rope pulls the sled at a positive angle relative to the slope, As one might expect from an adult holding the rope, then the tension will be increased because only the Tension portion parallel to the slope causes motion in that direction, but will be decreased because the Normal force, and therefore the friction force, of the slope on the sled will be decreased.

A 5.00 g object moving to the right at 20.0 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with a 10.0 g object that is initially at re
marusya05 [52]

Answer: a) 6.67cm/s b) 1/2

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the bodies before collision is equal to the momentum of the bodies after collision. Since the second body was initially at rest this means the initial velocity of the body is "zero".

Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the bodies

u1 and u2 be their velocities respectively

m1 = 5.0g m2 = 10.0g u1 = 20.0cm/s u2 = 0cm/s

Since momentum = mass × velocity

The conservation of momentum of the body will be

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

Note that the body will move with a common velocity (v) after collision which will serve as the velocity of each object after collision.

5(20) + 10(0) = (5+10)v

100 + 0 = 15v

v = 100/15

v = 6.67cm/s

Therefore the velocity of each object after the collision is 6.67cm/s

b) kinectic energy of the 10.0g object will be 1/2MV²

= 1/2×10×6.67²

= 222.44Joules

kinectic energy of the 5.0g object will be 1/2MV²

= 1/2×5×6.67²

= 222.44Joules

= 111.22Joules

Fraction of the initial kinetic transferred to the 10g object will be

111.22/222.44

= 1/2

How do we prove the earth is round? What evidence do we have and reasoning?
Jlenok [28]

Answer: Go to the harbor. When a ship sails off toward the horizon, it doesn't just get smaller and smaller until it's not visible anymore. Instead, the hull seems to sink below the horizon first, then the mast. When ships return from sea, the sequence is reversed: First the mast, then the hull, seem to rise over the horizon.

Climbing to a high point will allow you to be able to see farther if you go higher. If the Earth was flat, you'd be able to see the same distance no matter your elevation
