It depends what type question you are given with, for velocity the average acceleration = final velocity - the initial velocity / time, the ending equation being v (change in time in velocity) / t

59. (II) The crate shown in Fig. 4-60 lies on a plane tilted at an angle A = 25.0° to the horizontal, with Mk 0.19. (a) Determin
Daniel [21]

Explanation:

a) We need to write down first Newton's 2nd law as applied to the given system. The equations of motion for the x- and y-axes can be written as follows:

x:\;\;\;\;\;mg\sin 25° - \mu_kN = ma\;\;\;\;\;\;(1)

y:\;\;\;\;\;N - mg\cos 25° = 0\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(2)

From Eqn(2), we see that

N = mg\cos 25°\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(3)

so using Eqn(3) on Eqn(1), we get

mg\sin 25° - \mu_kmg\cos 25° = ma

Solving for the acceleration, we see that

a = g(\sin 25° - \mu_k\cos 25°)

\;\;\;\;= 2.45\:\text{m/s}^2

b) Now that we have the acceleration, we can now solve for the velocity of the crate at the bottom of the plane. Using the equation

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ax

Since the crate started from rest, v_0 = 0. Thus our equation reduces to

v^2 = 2ax \Rightarrow v = \sqrt{2ax}

v = \sqrt{2(2.45\:\text{m/s}^2)(8.15\:\text{m})}

\;\;\;\;= 6.32\:\text{m/s}

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

F= 4788 N

Explanation:

Because the car moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formula:

vf²=v₀²+2*a*d Formula (1)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

v₀: initial speed in m/s    

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²

Data

d=36.9 m

v₀=14.0 m/s m/s    

vf= 0  

Calculating of the acceleration of the car

We replace dta in the formula (1)

vf²=v₀²+2*a*d

(0)²=(14)²+2*a*(36.9)

-(14)²= (73.8) *a

a= - (196) /  (73.8)

a= - 2.66 m/s²

Newton's second law of the car in direction  horizontal (x):

∑Fx = m*ax Formula (2)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in direction x-axis (N)

m : mass (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

Data

m=1800 Fkg

a= - 2.66 m/s²

Magnitude of the horizontal net force (F) that is required to bring the car to a halt in a distance of 36.9 m :

We replace data in the formula (2)

-F= (1800 kg) * ( -2.66 m/s² )

F= 4788 N

As the size of the nucleus increases, more______are needed to maintain the attractive force.
Neko [114]
The attractive force that keeps the nucleus together is called nucleus force.
<span>The nucleus becomes increasingly more stable upon the addition of nucleons up to iron-56.
</span>So, as the size of the nucleus increase more iron 56 are needed.
Iron-56<span> (</span><span>56Fe</span><span>) is the most common isotope of </span><span>iron.</span>
