Your friend, Tim, is playing with his sled. He ties a rope to his sled and attaches it to Lar's snowmobile. Tim has a mass of 71

kg, the tension in the rope is 220 N (horizontally), and a coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.1. Unfortunately, Tim can only hang on for 8 s.
(a) What is Tim's maximum speed?

The maximum speed of Tim is 16.95 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • Mass of the rope, m = 71 kg
  • Tension on the rope, T = 220 N
  • Coefficient of kinetic friction, = 0.1
  • Time of motion, t = 8 s

<h3>What is Newton's second law of motion?</h3>
  • Newton's second law of motion states that, the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

The net force on Tim is calculated by applying Newton's second law of motion as follows;

T - \mu _k F_n = ma\\\\T - \mu _k F_n = m\frac{v}{t} \\\\T - \mu_k mg = m\frac{v}{t} \\\\t(\frac{T - \mu_k mg}{m} )= v\\\\8 (\frac{220 \ -\  0.1 \times 71 \times 9.8}{71} ) =v \\\\ 16.95 \ m/s = v

Thus, the maximum speed of Tim is 16.95 m/s.

THE RIGHT ANSWER WILL RECEIVE A BRAINLESS AND POINTS AND THANKS!!! THE RIGHT ANSWER WILL RECEIVE A BRAINLESS AND POINTS AND THAN
timurjin [86]

Answer:

f_{o} = 391.67 Hz

Explanation:

The sound of lowest frequency which is produced by a vibrating sting is called its fundamental frequency (f_{o}).

The For a vibrating string, the fundamental frequency (f_{o}) can be determined by:

f_{o} = \frac{v}{2L}

Where v is the speed of waves of the string, and L is the length of the string.

L = 42.0 cm = 0.42 m

v = 329 m/s

f_{o} = \frac{329}{2*0.42}

   = \frac{329}{0.84}

f_{o} = 391.6667 Hz

The fundamental frequency of the string is 391.67 Hz.

In a charging process, 4 × 1013 electrons are removed from one small metal sphere and placed on a second identical sphere. Initi
Alina [70]

Answer:

The distance between the two spheres is 914.41 X 10³ m

Explanation:

Given;

4 X 10¹³ electrons, and its equivalent in coulomb's is calculated as follows;

1 e = 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

4 X 10¹³ e = 4 X 10¹³ X 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C = 6.408 X 10⁻⁶ C

V = Ed

where;

V is the electrical potential energy between two spheres, J

E is the electric field potential between the two spheres N/C

d is the distance between two charged bodies, m

V = \frac{K*q}{d^2}*d = \frac{K*q}{d}

d = \frac{K*q}{V}

where;

K is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

d = (8.99 X 10⁹ X 6.408 X 10⁻⁶)/0.063

d = 914.41 X 10³ m

Therefore, the distance between the two spheres is 914.41 X 10³ m

You wad up a piece of paper and throw it into the wastebasket. How far will
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Since the paper is wadded up tight, and if there's any

air resistance left we assume there isn't any, it might

just as well be a stone that's tossed.  This is just a

stripped down projectile situation.

You said "an angle of 36 degrees", but you didn't say relative

to what.  I'll assume that it's 36 degrees above horizontal, and

now I'll proceed to answer the question with the information that

I just gave myself.

-- The vertical component of the velocity is  1.4 sin(36)

                                                                        = 0.823 m/s up.

-- The projectile rises for (0.823/9.8) second, runs out of gas,

and then falls for another (0.823/9.8) second to its original height.

So it's in the air for

                                  2 (0.823/9.8) = 0.168 second

                                                            (not very long at all)

-- The horizontal component of the velocity is  1.4 cos(36)

                                                                           = 1.133 m/s  

                                                             and it doesn't change.

-- During the 0.168 second that it's in the air,

the wad travels horizontally

                                              (0.168 s) x (1.133 m/s)

                                          =            0.19 meter

                                              (19 cm, ~ 7.5 inches)

If you find my mistake on this one, please please tell me.  

As of now, it looks like with that velocity at that angle, your

paper wad only makes it 7.5 inches from your hand into the can.

How does the 3rd Newtons Law apply to kicking a soccer ball?
tigry1 [53]
If you kick a soccer ball, you exert a force on it in a certain direction.
The soccer ball will exert an equal amount of force but in the opposite direction, which is on your foot. This is felt as ‘recoil’
