Answer:

Only if that object is being moved while carried

Explanation:

Work = Force • distance travelled

While holding an object would need force equal to that objects mass multiplied by 9.8, if it hasn't moved, then no work is done.

if you were to carry the object and have it travel some distance, then work would be done on that object.

3.3 kg block is on a perfectly smooth ramp that makes an angle of 52° with the horizontal. (a) What is the block's acceleration
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a)  a = 7.72 m / s²,  N = 19.9 N  and b)   F = 25.5 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use Newton's second law, let's set a reference system with an axis parallel to the plane and gold perpendicular axis. Let's break down the weight (W)

    sin52 = Wx / W

    cos52 = Wy / W

    Wx = W sin52

    Wy = w cos 52

Let's write them equations

X axis

    Wx = ma

Y Axis

    N-Wy = 0

    N = Wy

a) Let's calculate the acceleration

    a = W sin52 / m = mg sin 52 / m

    a = g sin 52

    a = 9.8 sin52

    a = 7.72 m / s²

The force of the ramp is normal

    N = Wy = mg cos 52

    N = 3.3 9.8 cos 52

    N = 19.9 N

b) For the block to move at constant speed the sum of force on the axis must be zero,

    F - Wx = 0

    F = Wx

    F = mg sin52

   F = 3.3 9.8 sin 52

   F = 25.5 N

3) A driver in a 1000-kg car traveling at 24 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefticient of friction between
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

A) 37 m

Explanation:

The car is moving of uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance it covers can be calculated by using the following SUVAT equation:

v^2 -u^2 = 2ad (1)

where

v = 0 m/s is the final velocity of the car

u = 24 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

d is the length of the skid

We need to find the acceleration first. We know that the force responsible for the (de)celeration is the force of friction, so:

F=ma=-\mu mg

where

m = 1000 kg is the mass of the car

\mu = 0.80 is the coefficient of friction

a is the deceleration of the car

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

The negative sign is due to the fact that the force of friction is against the motion of the car, so the sign of the acceleration will be negative because the car is slowing down. From this equation, we find:

a=-\mu g

And we can substitute it into eq.(1) to find d:

v^2 -u^2 = 2(\-mu g) d\\d= \frac{v^2-u^2}{-2 \mu g}=\frac{0-(24 m/s)^2}{-2(0.80)(9.8 m/s^2)}=36.7 m \sim 37 m

Jerome solves a problem using the law of conservation of momentum. What should Jerome always keep constant for each object after
s2008m [1.1K]

Jerome solves a problem using the law of conservation of momentum. What should Jerome always keep constant for each object after the objects collide and bounce apart?

a-velocity

b-mass

c-momentum

d-direction

Answer:

b. Mass

Explanation:

This question has to do with the principle of the law of conservation of momentum which states that the momentum of a system remains constant if no external force is acting on it.

As the question states, two objects collide with each other and eventually bounce apart, so their momentum may not be conserved but the mass of the objects is constant for each non-relativistic motion. Because of this, the mass of each object prior to the collision would be the same as the mass after the collision.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. Mass.
