Answer:

What is kinetic friction?

Kinetic friction is defined as a force that acts between moving surfaces. A body moving on the surface experiences a force in the opposite direction of its movement.

What causes it?

When the mass is not moving, the object experiences static friction. The friction increases as the applied force increases until the block moves. After the block moves, it experiences kinetic friction, which is less than the maximum static friction.

What does it generate?

When surfaces in contact move relative to each other, the friction between the two surfaces converts kinetic energy into thermal energy (that is, it converts work to heat). This property can have dramatic consequences, as illustrated by the use of friction created by rubbing pieces of wood together to start a fire.

Answer:

a) θ₁ = 23.14 ° , b) θ₂ = 51.81 °

Explanation:

An address network is described by the expression

     d sin θ = m λ

Where is the distance between lines, λ is the wavelength and m is the order of the spectrum

The distance between one lines, we can find used a rule of proportions

     d = 1/600

     d = 1.67 10⁻³ mm

    d = 1-67 10⁻³ m

Let's calculate the angle

    sin θ = m λ / d

    θ  = sin⁻¹ (m λ / d)

First order

    θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (1 6.5628 10⁻⁷ / 1.67 10⁻⁶)

    θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (3.93 10⁻¹)

    θ₁ = 23.14 °

Second order

     θ₂ = sin⁻¹ (2 6.5628 10⁻⁷ / 1.67 10⁻⁶)

     θ₂ = sin⁻¹ (0.786)

     θ₂ = 51.81 °

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.144 kg of water

Explanation:

From Raoult's law,

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8

Let the moles of solvent (water) be y

Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole

Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.8 = y/(y + 2)

y = 0.8(y + 2)

y = 0.8y + 1.6

y - 0.8y = 1.6

0.2y = 1.6

y = 1.6/0.2 = 8

Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol

Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg

A 14.3-g bullet is fired into a 5.21 kg block of wood. The block is attached to a spring that has a spring force constant of 450
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

The initial speed of the bullet is v_{o} = 889.199\,\frac{m}{s}.

Explanation:

The collision between bullet and block is inelastic and let suppose that motion occurs on a horizontal surface, so that changes in gravitational potential energy can be neglected. Initially, the intial speed of the bullet-block system can be determined with the help of the Work-Energy Theorem and the Principle of Energy Conservation:

K = U_{k} + W_{loss}

\frac{1}{2}\cdot (5.224\,kg)\cdot v^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(450\,\frac{N}{m}\right)\cdot (0.22\,m)^{2} + (0.35)\cdot (5.224\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (0.22\,m)

The initial speed of the bullet-block system is:

v \approx 2.383\,\frac{m}{s}

Now, the initial speed of the bullet is determined by applying the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(0.014\,kg)\cdot v_{o} = (5.224\,kg)\cdot \left(2.383\,\frac{m}{s} \right)

v_{o} = 889.199\,\frac{m}{s}
