Hi there!

We must begin by converting km/h to m/s using dimensional analysis:

\frac{62km}{1hr} * \frac{1hr}{3600sec}*\frac{1000m}{1km} = 17.22 m/s

Now, we can use the kinematic equation below to find the required acceleration:

vf² = vi² + 2ad

We can assume the object starts from rest, so:

vf² = 2ad

(17.22)²/(2 · 75) = a

a = 1.978 m/s²

Now, we can begin looking at forces.

For an object moving down a ramp experiencing friction and an applied force, we have the forces:

Fκ  = μMgcosθ  = Force due to kinetic friction

Mgsinθ = Force due to gravity

A = Applied Force

We can write out the summation. Let down the incline be positive.

ΣF = A + Mgsinθ - μMgcosθ

Or:

ma = A + Mgsinθ - μMgcosθ

We can plug in the given values:

22(1.978) = A + 22(9.8sin(5)) - 0.10(22 · 9.8cos(5))

A = 46.203 N

A boy is holding a ball 1 m from the ground with a force of 20 N. He holds it still for 60seconds. How much power in watts is be
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Power = 0.33 Watts

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 1m

Force = 20N

First of all, we would solve for the work done by the boy.

Workdone = force * distance

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Workdone = 20*1 = 20J

Now to find power;

Power = workdone/time

Power = 20/60

Power = 0.33 Watts.
