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 stone is dropped from a cliff. What will be its speed when it was fallen 100 m?
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

final velocity will be44.72m/s

Explanation:

HEIGHT=h=100m

vi=0m/s

vf=?

g=10m/s²

by using third equation of motion for bodies under gravity

2gh=(vf)²-(vi)²

evaluating the formula

2(10m/s²)(100m)=vf²-(0m/s)²

2000m²/s²=vf²

√2000m²/s²=√vf²

44.72m/s=vf

The greenhouse effect that raises the surface temperature of planets
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Green house effect:

 Temperature of atmosphere is going to  increased continuously, because infrared light absorbed by gas .This increased in temperature atmosphere    is called green house effect.

The green houses gases are as follows

,Carbon diaoxide,water vapor  ,,Carbon diaoxide ,Methane ,,Carbon diaoxide oxide,CFCs ,ozone.

So the option c is correct.
