The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal surface is 0.051.

The given parameters;

  • <em>initial velocity, u = 3 m/s</em>
  • <em>distance traveled by the block, s = 9 m</em>

The acceleration of the block is calculated as follows;

v^2 = u^2 +  2(-a)s\\\\v^2 = u^2 - 2as\\\\a = \frac{u^2 - v^2}{2s} \\\\a = \frac{3^2 - 0^2}{2\times 9} \\\\a =0.5 \ m/s^2

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the horizontal surface is calculated as follows;

\mu_k mg = ma\\\\\mu_k = \frac{a}{g} \\\\\mu_k = \frac{0.5}{9.8} \\\\\mu_k = 0.051

two children having a disagreement pull on a 50N sled in opposite directions. one pulls with a force of 300N east, the other wit
prohojiy [21]
<span>Since forces are vector quantities, we must indicate direction using positive and negative values. East will be assigned positive and west will be negative. Friction will act as a negative force since it impedes action. To calculate the net force we sum the vector quantities, as follows. Net force equals 50n which is derived by the following calculation: 300n-220n-30n.</span>

In the two-slit experiment, monochromatic light of frequency 5.00 × 1014 Hz passes through a pair of slits separated by 2.20 × 1
asambeis [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of monochromatic light, f=5\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Separation between slits, d=2.2\times 10^{-5}\ m

(a) The condition for maxima is given by :

d\ sin\theta=n\lambda

For third maxima,

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{n\lambda}{d})

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{n\lambda}{d})

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{nc}{fd})  

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{3\times 3\times 10^8\ m/s}{5\times 10^{14}\ Hz\times 2.2\times 10^{-5}\ m})  

\theta=4.69^{\circ}

(b) For second dark fringe, n = 2

d\ sin\theta=(n+1/2)\lambda

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{5\lambda}{2d})

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{5c}{2df})

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{5\times 3\times 10^8}{2\times 2.2\times 10^{-5}\times 5\times 10^{14}})

\theta=3.90^{\circ}

Hence, this is the required solution.
