The possible magnitude for the force of static friction on the stationary cart is 72.1 N.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Applied force on the cart, F = 72.1 N</em>

<em />

Based on Newton's second law of motion, the force applied to object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

F = ma

Static frictional force is the force resisting the motion of an object at rest.

\Sigma F = 0\\\\F -F_f = 0

where;

F_f is the frictional force

F= F_f \\\\72.1 = F_f\\\\F_f = 72.1\  N

Thus, the possible magnitude for the force of static friction on the stationary cart is 72.1 N.

What is the frequency of an ocean wave that is traveling at a speed of 45 m/s if it has a wavelength of 3 meters.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 15 Hz      

Explanation:

We have,

Speed of an ocean wave is 45 m/s

Wavelength of a wave is 3 m

It is required to find the frequency of an ocean wave.

Speed of a wave, v=f\lambda, f = frequency of ocean wave

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{45}{3}\\\\f=15\ Hz

So, the frequency of an ocean wave is 15 Hz.

A 2.5-kg ball and a 5.0-kg ball have an elastic collision. Before the collision, the 2.5-kg ball was at rest and the other ball
lesantik [10]

The kinetic energy of 2.5 kg ball after collision is 27.09 J.

Answer:

Explanation:

In elastic collision, the sum of momentum of the objects before collision will be equal to the sum of momentum of the objects after collision.  

We know that momentum is the product of mass and velocity acting on any object.

So, the conservation of energy in elastic collision leads to following equation:

M_{1} u_{1} +M_{2} u_{2}=M_{1}  v_{1}+M_{2}  v_{2}

Since, the momentum is conserved ,the kinetic energy will also be conserved in elastic collision. So

M_{1} u_{1} ^{2}+M_{2} u_{2} ^{2}=M_{1}v_{1} ^{2}+  M_{2}v_{2} ^{2}

Since initial velocity for M1 ball is zero, then

M_{2} u_{2}=M_{1}  v_{1}+M_{2}  v_{2}

and

M_{2} u_{2} ^{2}=M_{1}v_{1} ^{2}+  M_{2}v_{2} ^{2}

So, on solving all the above equation, we get an equation for velocity and that is

\frac{2M_{2}u_{2} }{(M_{1}+M_{2}  }=final velocity of ball with mass 2.5 kg

v = \frac{2(5*3.5)}{2.5+5}=4.67 m/s

So kinetic energy will be 1/2 mv2

Kinetic energy of 2.5 kg ball is \frac{1}{2}*2.5*(4.67)^{2}  =27.09 J

So the kinetic energy of 2.5 kg ball after collision is 27.09 J.
