A 30.0 kg child, initially at rest, slides down a 2.0 m tall slide. The child reaches the bottom of the slide with a speed of 6

m/s. There is friction between the child and the slide. Write a Law of Conservation of Energy equation to represent the transfer of energy from the top of the slide to the bottom. a. b. Use the equation from part (b) to calculate the energy dissipated by friction between the slide and the child? (g = 9.81 m/s) = 13​

Answer:

Explanation:

Total energy is constant

E = mgh + ½mv² + Fd

At the top of the slide, all energy is potential

E = mgh + 0 + 0

At the bottom of the slide, all potential energy has converted to kinetic and work of friction.

mgh = ½mv² + W

W = mgh - ½mv²

W = 30.0[(9.81)(2.0) - ½6²]

W = 48.6 J

Andreyy89

Answer:

the answer is The pneumatic mechanical device can only be used as a de-icing device.

Explanation:

An ice protection system prevents the formation of ice, or enables the aircraft to shed the ice before it can grow to a dangerous thickness. Ice protection systems are designed to keep atmospheric ice from accumulating on aircraft surfaces such as wings, propellers and engine intakes.

The pneumatic mechanical device is the Pneumatic deicing boots which was invented by the Goodrich Corporation in 1923. The pneumatic boot is usually made of layers of rubber, with one or more air chambers between the layers.

Any design which utilizes either a mechanical means of breaking the bond of ice to the surface, or which operates on a periodic cycle, is necessarily a de-ice system.

A bullet with mass 1.0kg and velocity 180 m/s is brought to rest in 0.02 s by a sandbag.assuming constant acceleration in the sa
kotykmax [81]
Hello
The bullet is moving by uniformly accelerated motion.
The initial velocity is v_i=180~m/s, the final velocity is v_i=0~m/s, and the total time of the motion is \Delta t=0.02~s, so the acceleration is given by
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t} = -9000~m/s^2 
where the negative sign means that is a deceleration.
Therefore we can calculate the total distance covered by the bullet in its motion using
S=v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2 = 180~m/s \cdot 0.02~s + \frac{1}{2}(-9000~m/s^2)(0.02~s)^2=1.8~m
So, the bullet penetrates the sandbag 1.8 meters.

A chevrolet corvette convertible can brake to a stop from a speed of 60.0 mi/h in a distance of 123 ft on a level roadway. what
pychu [463]
By definition we have that the final speed is:
 Vf² = Vo² + 2 * a * d
 Where,
 Vo: Final speed
 a: acceleration
 d: distance.
 We cleared this expression the acceleration:
 a = (Vf²-Vo²) / (2 * d)
 Substituting the values:
 a = ((0) ^ 2- (60) ^ 2) / ((2) * (123) * (1/5280))
 a = -77268 mi / h ^ 2
 its stopping distance on a roadway sloping downward at an angle of 17.0 ° is:
 First you must make a free body diagram and see the acceleration of the car:
 g = 32.2 feet / sec ^ 2
 a = -77268 (mi / h ^ 2) * (5280/1) (feet / mi) * (1/3600) ^ 2 (h / s) ^ 2
 a = -31.48 feet / sec ^ 2
 A = a + g * sin (θ) = -31.48 + 32.2 * sin17.0
 A = -22.07 feet / sec ^ 2
 Clearing the braking distance:
 Vf² = Vo² + 2 * a * d
 d = (Vf²-Vo²) / (2 * a)
 Substituting the values:
 d = ((0) ^ 2- (60 * (5280/3600)) ^ 2) / (2 * (- 22.07))
 d = 175.44 feet
 answer:
 its stopping distance on a roadway sloping downward at an angle of 17.0 ° is 175.44 feet
