Describe the Milky Way. What does it contain?
BigorU [14]
It consists of our Solar system. Also, it contains many stars and alot of dust and gases. Our milky way is a galaxy full of amazing stuff, many stars blow up and cause auroras in the sky. If you  go to watch the aurora borealis(northern lights) , its amazing and beautiful. The sky turns green and blue and the stars appear.

A truck using a rope to tow a 2230-kg car accelerates from rest to 13.0 m/s in a time of 15.0s. How strong must the rope be? μk
Leokris [45]

Answer:

The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

Explanation

Acceleration calculation

The car acceleration is equal to the acceleration of the truck

ac: car acceleration\frac{m}{s^{2} }

at: truck acceleration\frac{m}{s^{2} })

ac = at= \frac{vf-vi}{t-ti}  equation(1)

Known information:

vi = Initial speed = 0, ti = initial time = 0

vf = Final speed = 13 \frac{m}{s}, t = final time =5 s

We replaced the known information in the equation(1):

ac = at = \frac{13-0}{15-0}

ac=ac=\frac{13}{15}  \frac{m}{s}

Dynamic analysis

The forces acting on the car are the following:

Wc: Car weight

N: normal force, road force on the car

Ff: Friction force

T: Force of tension

Car weight calculation:

Wc=mc*g

mc = Car mass = 2230kg

g = Gravity acceleration=9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Wc= 2230*9.8

Wc=21854 N

Normal force calculation:

Newton's first law

sum Fy= 0

N-W=0

N=W

N=21854 N

Friction force calculation (Ff):

We have the formula to calculate the friction force:

Ff = μk * N  Equation (3)

μk kinetic coefficient of friction

We know that μk = 0.373and N= 21854N ,then:

Ff=0.373*21854

Ff=8151.54 N

Calculation of the tension force in the rope (T):

Newton's Second law

sum Fx= mc*ac

T-Ff=mc*ac

T=2230(\frac{13}{15}) + 8151.54

T=10084,21 N

Answer: The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

A 51.0 kg crate, starting from rest, is pulled across a floor with a constant horizontal force of 225 N. For the first 10.0 m th
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The final speed of the crate is 12.07 m/s.

Explanation:

For the first 10.0 meters, the only force acting on the crate is 225 N, so we can calculate the acceleration as follows:

F = ma

a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{225 N}{51.0 kg} = 4.41 m/s^{2}

Now, we can calculate the final speed of the crate at the end of 10.0 m:

v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2ad_{1}                  

v_{f} = \sqrt{0 + 2*4.41 m/s^{2}*10.0 m} = 9.39 m/s    

For the next 10.5 meters we have frictional force:

F - F_{\mu} = ma

F - \mu mg = ma

So, the acceleration is:

a = \frac{F - \mu mg}{m} = \frac{225 N - 0.17*51.0 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}}{51.0 kg} = 2.74 m/s^{2}

The final speed of the crate at the end of 10.0 m will be the initial speed of the following 10.5 meters, so:

v_{f}^{2} = v_{0}^{2} + 2ad_{2}  

v_{f} = \sqrt{(9.39 m/s)^{2} + 2*2.74 m/s^{2}*10.5 m} = 12.07 m/s  

Therefore, the final speed of the crate after being pulled these 20.5 meters is 12.07 m/s.  

I hope it helps you!
