We have that for the Question "A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The <em>coefficient </em>of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book</em>, perpendicular to the wall, to prevent the book from slipping down the wal" it can be said that  the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book is</em>

  • F=44N

From the question we are told

A 2kg book is held against a vertical wall. The <em>coefficient </em>of friction is 0.45. What is the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book</em>, perpendicular to the wall, to prevent the book from slipping down the wal

Generally the equation for the  Force  is mathematically given as

F=\frac{mg}{\mu}\\\\F=\frac{2*9.8}{0.45}\\\\

F=44N

Therefore

the minimum force that must be applied on the <em>book is</em>

F=44N

-A 180 kg hippo is riding a bicycle at a speed of 6.0
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

0.0675 seconds

Explanation:

From the question,

We apply newton's second law of motion

F = m(v-u)/t.................... Equation 1

Where F = force exert by the brake, v = final speed, u = initial speed m = mass of the bicycle, t = time.

make t the subject of the equation

t = m(v-u)/F................... Equation 2

Given: m = 180 kg, u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop), F = -1600 N ( agianst the dirction of motion)

Substitute these value into equation 2

t = 180(0-6.0)/-1600

t = -1080/-1600

t = 0.0675 seconds.

A gun has a muzzle speed of 80 meters per second. What angle of elevation should be used to hit an object 180 meters away? Negle
olga55 [171]
Knowing the initial velocity and angle, the horizontal range formula is given by   R= V^2sin(2teta) / g, so we can get 
sin(2teta)=Rg/V^2
sin(2teta)= (180 x 9.8)/ 80^2= 0.27, sin(2teta)=0.27, 2teta=arcsin(0.27)=15.66, so teta=15.66/2

teta=7.83°

Block b rests upon a smooth surface. if the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between a and b are μs = 0.4 and μk = 0.
aliina [53]

Given

Weight of the block A, Wa = 20 lb, weight of block B Wb = 50 lb. Applied force to block A, P = 6lb, coefficient of static friction µs = 0.4, coefficient of kinetic friction µk = 0.3. If a force P is applied to the body, no relative motion will take place until the applied force is equal to the force of friction Ff, which is acting opposite to the direction of motion. Magnitude of static force of friction between block A and block B, Fs = µsN, where N is reaction force acting on block A. Now, resolve the forces Fx = max. P = (mA + mB)a,

 

6 = (20 / 32.2 + 50 / 32.2)a

 

2.173a = 6

 

A = 2.76 ft/s^2

 

To check slipping occurs between block A and block B, consider block A:

P – Ff = mAaA

6 – Ff = 1.71

Ff = 4.29 lb

 

And also,

N = wA. We know static friction,

Fs = µsN

Fs = 0.4 x 20

Fs = 8lb

Frictional force is less than static friction. Ff < Fs

<span>Therefors, acceleration of block A, aA = 2.76 ft/s^2, acceleration of block B aB = 2.76 ft/s^2</span>
