The acceleration of the crate is 1.196 m/s².

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity.

To calculate the acceleration of the crate, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • a = (F-mgμ)/m................. Equation 1

Where:

  • a = acceleration of the crate
  • m = mass of the crate
  • F = Force applied to the crate
  • μ = Coefficient of friction

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 225 kg
  • F = 710 N
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • μ = 0.20

Substitute the values above into equation 1

  • a = [710-(225×9.8×0.20)]/225
  • a = (710-441)/225
  • a = 269/225
  • a = 1.196 m/s²

Hence, The acceleration of the crate is 1.196 m/s²

You create a ramp using two text books and a 0.50m board. Using a timer you determine that a cart can roll down the ramp in 0.55
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the cart at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s, and the acceleration would be 3.30m/s^2.

Explanation:

Assuming the initial velocity to be zero, we can obtain the velocity at the bottom of the ramp using the kinematics equations:

v=v_0+at\\\\v^2=v_0^2+2ad

Dividing the second equation by the first one, we obtain:

v=\frac{v_0^2+2ad}{v_0+at}

And, since v_0=0, then:

v=\frac{2ad}{at}\\\\v=\frac{2d}{t}\\\\v=\frac{2(0.50m)}{0.55s}\\\\v=1.81m/s

It means that the velocity at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s.

We could use this data, plus any of the two initial equations, to determine the acceleration:

v=v_0+at\\\\\implies a=\frac{v}{t}\\\\a=\frac{1.81m/s}{0.55s}\\\\a=3.30m/s^2

So the acceleration is 3.30m/s^2.

Julli [10]

Answer:

Apply Newton's second law in the moving direction.

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}F &= ma\\5N-2N &= 25kg\times a\\a & = \frac{3N}{25kg}\\&= 0.12ms^{-2}\end{aligned}

Friction force applies in the opposite direction of motion; as a restriction.

As the proton approaches the uranium nucleus, the repulsive force slows down the proton until it comes momentarily to rest, afte
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

 r^2 = \frac{ 2 k  \ Ze^2}{ 2m}

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy

starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus

          Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)

          Em_f = U = q V

where the potential is

          V = k Ze / r²

Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching

Energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

           ½ m v² = e (k \frac{Ze}{r^2})

          r^2 = \frac{ 2 k  \ Ze^2}{ 2m}

with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)
