The acceleration of the wooden box is 6.17 m/s² towards the west.

<h3 /><h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

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

To calculate the acceleration of the wooden box can be calculated using the formula below.

Formula:

F₂-F₁ = ma.................. Equation 1

Where:

F₂ = Force on the wooden box acting towards west
F₁ = Force on the wooden box acting towards the east
m = Mass of the wooden box.
a = Acceleration of the wooden box

Make a the subject of the equation

a = (F₂-F₁)/m........................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

F₂ = 270.7 N
F₁ = 85.7 N
m = 30 kg

Substitute these values into equation 2

a = (270.7-85.7)/30
a = 185/30
a = 6.17 m/s² towards the west.

Hence, The acceleration of the wooden box is 6.17 m/s² towards the west.

Answer:

Number of turns in secondary will be 7

Explanation:

We have given primary voltage $V_p=120volt$

Number of turns in the primary is $N_p=3575$

Secondary voltage is given $V_s=235mV=0.235volt$

We have to find the number of turns in secondary

We know that $\frac{N_p}{N_s}=\frac{V_p}{V_s}$

So $\frac{3575}{N_s}=\frac{120}{0.235}$

$N_s=6.60$

As the number of turns can not be in decimal so number of turns will be 7

The two blocks in oscillate on a frictionless surface with a period of 1.5 s. The upper block just begins to slip when the ampli

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

0.72

Explanation:

$T$ = Time period of oscillation = 1.5 s

Angular frequency is given as

$w = \frac{2\pi }{T}\\w = \frac{2(3.14) }{1.5}\\w = 4.2 rad/s$

$A$ = Amplitude of oscillation = 40 cm = 0.40 m

$\mu$ = Coefficient of static friction = ?

$a$ = acceleration of the block

$m$ = mass of the block

Maximum acceleration of the block is given as

$a = Aw^{2}$

frictional force is given as

$f = \mu mg$

As per newton's second law

$f = ma \\\\\mu mg = ma \\\mu g = a\\\mu g = Aw^{2}\\\mu (9.8) = (0.40)(4.2)^{2}\\\mu = 0.72$

zysi [14]

Answer: $\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

mass of sphere $m=250\ gm$

diameter of sphere $d=4.30\ cm$

radius $r=\frac{4.30}{2}\ cm$

$f=0.0200\ N$

friction will provide resisting torque so

$f\times r=I\times \alpha$

where $I=\text{moment of Inertia}$

$f=\text{friction force}$

$\alpha =\text{angular acceleration}$

$I=\frac{2}{5}mr^2$

$0.02\times r=\frac{2}{5}mr^2\times \alpha$

$\alpha =\frac{5}{2r}\times f$

$\alpha =\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{2}{4.3\times 10^{-2}}\times 0.02$

$\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2$

(b)time taken to decrease its rotational speed by $21\ rad/s$

$t=\dfrac{\Delta \omega }{\alpha }$

$t=\dfrac{21}{9.302}$

$t=2.25\ s$
