A box rests on top of a flat bed truck. The box has a mass of m = 16.0 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the box an
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1) 1.31 m/s2

2) 20.92 N

3) 8.53 m/s2

4) 1.76 m/s2

5) -8.53 m/s2

Explanation:

1) As the box does not slide, the acceleration of the box (relative to ground) is the same as acceleration of the truck, which goes from 0 to 17m/s in 13 s

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{17 - 0}{13} = 1.31 m/s2

2)According to Newton 2nd law, the static frictional force that acting on the box (so it goes along with the truck), is the product of its mass and acceleration

F_s = am = 1.31*16 = 20.92 N

3) Let g = 9.81 m/s2. The maximum static friction that can hold the box is the product of its static coefficient and the normal force.

F_{\mu_s} = \mu_sN = mg\mu_s = 16*9.81*0.87 = 136.6N

So the maximum acceleration on the block is

a_{max} = F_{\mu_s} / m = 136.6 / 16 = 8.53 m/s^2

4)As the box slides, it is now subjected to kinetic friction, which is

F_{\mu_s} = mg\mu_k = 16*9.81*0.69 = 108.3 N

So if the acceleration of the truck it at the point where the box starts to slide, the force that acting on it must be at 136.6 N too. So the horizontal net force would be 136.6 - 108.3 = 28.25N. And the acceleration is

28.25 / 16 = 1.76 m/s2

5) Same as number 3), the maximum deceleration the truck can have without the box sliding is -8.53 m/s2

An airplane accelerates from a speed of 88m/s to a speed of 132 m/s during a 15 second time interval. How far did the airplane t
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1650\:\mathrm{m}

Explanation:

We can use the following kinematics equations to solve this problem:

v_f=v_i+at,\\{v_f}^2={v_i}^2+2a\Delta x.

Using the first one to solve for acceleration:

132=88+a(15),\\15a=44,\\a=\frac{44}{15}=2.9\bar{3}\:\mathrm{m/s^2}.

Now we can use the second equation to solve for the distance travelled by the airplane:

132^2=88^2+2\cdot2.9\bar{3}\cdot \Delta x,\\\Delta x= \frac{9680}{2\cdot2.9\bar{3}},\\\Delta x =\fbox{$ 1650\:\mathrm{m}$}(three significant figures).

A cricket ball is dropped from a height of 20 m. Calculate: a) the speed of the ball. b) the time it takes to fall through this
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Initial velocity is 0 .. ( since it is just dropped)

now using V²= u² +2gh

=> (Vfinal)² = 0+2*10*20

=> v² = 20*20 = 400

=> v = √400 = 20m/s

for time taken

use V = u+gt

=> t = V/g = 20/10 = 2sec

Acid rain is a secondary pollutant.<br>T or F
aniked [119]
True, acid rain is a secondary pollutant


Examples of a secondary pollutant include ozone, which is formed when hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides combine in the presence of sunlight, which is formed as NO combines with oxygen in the air; and acid rain, which is formed when sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxides react with water.
