One uniform ladder of mass 30 kg and 10 m long rests against a frictionless vertical wall and makes an angle of 60o with the flo
yuradex [85]

Answer:

   μ = 0.37

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the translational and rotational equilibrium equations.

We set our reference system at the highest point of the ladder where it touches the vertical wall. We assume that counterclockwise rotation is positive

let's write the rotational equilibrium

           W₁  x/2 + W₂ x₂ - fr y = 0

where W₁ is the weight of the mass ladder m₁ = 30kg, W₂ is the weight of the man 700 N, let's use trigonometry to find the distances

             cos 60 = x / L

where L is the length of the ladder

              x = L cos 60

            sin 60 = y / L

           y = L sin60

the horizontal distance of man is

            cos 60 = x2 / 7.0

            x2 = 7 cos 60

we substitute

         m₁ g L cos 60/2 + W₂ 7 cos 60 - fr L sin60 = 0

         fr = (m1 g L cos 60/2 + W2 7 cos 60) / L sin 60

let's calculate

         fr = (30 9.8 10 cos 60 2 + 700 7 cos 60) / (10 sin 60)

         fr = (735 + 2450) / 8.66

         fr = 367.78 N

the friction force has the expression

         fr = μ N

write the translational equilibrium equation

         N - W₁ -W₂ = 0

         N = m₁ g + W₂

         N = 30 9.8 + 700

         N = 994 N

we clear the friction force from the eucacion

        μ = fr / N

        μ = 367.78 / 994

        μ = 0.37

For a caffeinated drink with a caffeine mass percent of 0.65% and a density of 1.00 g/mL, how many mL of the drink would be requ
slava [35]

Explanation:

First we will convert the given mass from lb to kg as follows.

        157 lb = 157 lb \times \frac{1 kg}{2.2046 lb}

                   = 71.215 kg

Now, mass of caffeine required for a person of that mass at the LD50 is as follows.

         180 \frac{mg}{kg} \times 71.215 kg

         = 12818.7 mg

Convert the % of (w/w) into % (w/v) as follows.

      0.65% (w/w) = \frac{0.65 g}{100 g}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{(\frac{100 g}{1.0 g/ml})}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}

Therefore, calculate the volume which contains the amount of caffeine as follows.

   12818.7 mg = 12.8187 g = \frac{12.8187 g}{\frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}}

                       = 1972 ml

Thus, we can conclude that 1972 ml of the drink would be required to reach an LD50 of 180 mg/kg body mass if the person weighed 157 lb.

A boy throws a baseball onto a roof and it rolls back down and off the roof with a speed of 3.75 m/s. If the roof is pitched at
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

a) t = 0.528 s

b) D = 1.62 m

Explanation:

given,

speed of the baseball = 3.75 m/s

angle made with the horizontal = 35°

height of the roof edge = 2.5 m

using equation of motion

s = ut +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

2.5 = vsin\theta \ t +\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

2.5 = 3.75\ sin35^0 \ t +\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 t^2

4.9 t² + 2.15 t - 2.5 = 0

on solving the above equation

t = 0.528 s

b) D = v cos θ × t

D = 3.75 × cos 35° ×0.528

D = 1.62 m

If a 340 N girl sits on a seesaw and is lifted 1.4 m in 1.6 s, how much work was done by the child on the other side?
blondinia [14]
In physics, work is defined as the total energy when an object is moved to a certain displacement by the application of external force. It is calculated by the expression W = Fd. For this case, the displacement is apparently zero, then there is no work in the system above.
