A 20 kg crate initially at rest on a horizontal floor requires a 80 N horizontal force to set it in motion. Find the coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor is 0.41

Explanation:

Friction Force

When an object is moving and encounters friction in the air or rough surfaces, it loses acceleration and velocity because the friction force opposes motion.

The friction force when an object is moving on a horizontal surface is calculated by:

[tex]Fr=\mu N[/tex]          [1]

Where [tex]\mu[/tex] is the coefficient of static or kinetics friction and N is the normal force.

If no forces other then the weight and the normal are acting upon the y-direction, then the weight and the normal are equal in magnitude:

N = W = m.g

The crate of m=20 Kg has a weight of:

W = 20*9.8

W = 196 N

The normal force is also N=196 N

We can find the coefficient of static friction by solving [1] for [tex]\mu[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle \mu=\frac{Fr}{N}[/tex]

The friction force is equal to the minimum force required to start moving the object on the floor, thus Fr=80 N and:

[tex]\displaystyle \mu=\frac{80}{196}[/tex]

[tex]\mu=0.41[/tex]

The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the floor is 0.41

The acceleration due to gravity on the earths surface is?​

Answers

Acceleration due to gravity depends directly on the mass of Earth and inversely to the square of radius of Earth.

Answer:

9.8 m/s2

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity is the acceleration gained by an object due to the gravitational force. Its SI unit is m/s 2. It has both magnitude and direction, hence, it’s a vector quantity. Acceleration due to gravity is represented by g. The standard value of g on the surface of the earth at sea level is 9.8 m/s2.

Applying the Law of Conservation of Energy. If a car was released down the track from a height what happens to the potential energy and Kinetic energy as the car goes down the ramp?

Answers

Answer:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed,  although it can be changed from one form to another.    KE + PE = constant. A simple example involves a stationary car at the top of a hill.  As the car coasts down the hill, it moves faster and so it’s kinetic energy increases and it’s potential energy decreases.  On the way back up the hill, the car converts kinetic energy to potential energy.  In the absence of friction, the car should end up at the same height as it started.

This law had to be combined with the law of conservation of mass when it was determined that mass can be inter-converted with energy.

One can also imagine the energy transformation in a pendulum.  When the ball is at the top of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is potential energy.   When the ball is at the bottom of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is kinetic energy.   The total energy of the ball stays the same but is continuously exchanged between kinetic and potential forms

A. One skater must remain at rest.
B. Nothing is known about the final total momentum.
C. The final total momentum must equal zero.
D. Since they are on ice, this will not work. Neither can move.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps

Two ice skaters are at rest and facing each other. In order to move, they push off each other, then their net final total momentum must equal zero, therefore the correct answer is option C.

What is momentum?

It can be defined as the product of the mass and the speed of the particle, it represents the combined effect of mass and the speed of any particle, and the momentum of any particle is expressed in Kg m/s unit.

As given in the problem statement two ice skaters are at rest and facing each other. In order to move, they push off each other,  

By using the conservation of the momentum,

The initial total momentum of two skaters = the final total momentum of the skaters

Since, initially, they are at rest and their initial total momentum is zero  therefore the correct answer is option B

The tree branch in the preceding problem sags, and the child's feet rest on the ground. If the tension in the rope is reduced to 220 N, what is the value of the normal force being exerted on the child's feet?

Answers

The complete question is

A 45-kg child sits on a 3.2-kg tire swing. The tension on the rope is 470 N. The tree branch sags and the child's feet rest on the ground. If the tension in the rope is reduced to 220 N, what is the value of the normal force being exerted on the child's feet?

Answer:

Therefore the Normal force is being exerted on the child's feet is 252.36( 250N).

Explanation:

We are given

mass of child = 45kg

mass of the tire = 3.2kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

We have the first case in which the tire is in swing so tension in that case will be which is the resultant force.

Fr = Resultant force

Ft =  Tension force

Fg= Gravitational force

Fr = Fg + Ft

0 = -mg + Ft

Ft = mg

   = (45+3.2)*9.8

   = 48.2 * 9.8

Ft = 472.36N  ( which is close to 470)

In the second case the child is in the rest position, The resultant force will be zero.

Fr = Ft + Fn + Fg  ( Normal force is denoted by Fn )

0 = Ft + Fn + Fg

Fn =  -Fg -Ft

Fn = mg -Ft

    = 472.36 - 220

Fn  = 252.36N  ( close to 250N)

Therefore the Normal force being exerted on the child's feet will be 252.36N.  

Which is the correct equation for the force applied by a spring?

Answers

Answer:

B. [tex]F = -k*x[/tex]

Explanation:

The force of a spring can be easily calculated using Hooke's law which tells us that the force applied on a spring is equal to the product of the constant of a spring by the compressed or stretched distance of the spring.

That is:

[tex]F = k*x[/tex]

k = spring constant [N/m]

Janet jumps horizontally off a high diving platform with a velocity of 2.76 m/s and lands in the water 2.3 s later. How high is the platform? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s. Answer in units of m.

How far from the base of the platform does she land? Answer and units of m.​

Answers

Answer:

(a) Let the height of the platform is h meter,

=>By s = ut + 1/2gt^2

=>h = 0 + 1/2 x 9.8 x (2.3)^2

=>h = 25.92 m

(b) By R = [Ux] x t

=>R = 2.47 x 2.3

=>R = 5.68 m

Explanation:

Explanation:

From the exercise we know the initial horizontal velocity and the time that Janet takes to land in the water

a) Knowing the formula for free falling objects, we can calculate how high is the platform

At t=2.3m the position of Janet is y=0m

So, the platform is 26m tall

b) According to dynamics the displacement of an object can be analyze using the following formula:

So, Janet lands 6 m far from the base of the platform

A baseball on the Moon and an identical baseball on the Earth are thrown vertically upward with the same initial velocity of 12 m/s. The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon is 1/6 that of Earth. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the moon? What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the earth? What is the difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth?

Answers

Answer:

a. 3.68 m b. 0.61 m c. 3.07 m

Explanation:

a. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the moon?

Using v² = u² - 2g'h where u = initial velocity of baseball = 12 m/s, v =  final velocity of baseball = 0 m/s (since it stops at maximum height), g' = acceleration due to gravity on moon = g/6 where g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s², so g' = 9.8 m/s²/6 = 1.63 m/s² and h = maximum height of ball on moon.

So, making h subject of the formula, we have

h = -(v² - u²)/2g'

substituting the values of the variables, we have

h = -((0 m/s)² - (12 m/s)²)/2(1.63 m/s²)

=  -(- 12 m²/s²)/2(1.63 m/s²)

= 6 m²/s²)/(1.63 m/s²)

= 3.68 m

b. What is the maximum height the ball reaches on the earth?

Using the same equation for the maximum height the baseball travels on the moon for that on the earth, the maximum height h' the baseball travels on the earth is given by  

h' = -(v² - u²)/2g where u = initial velocity of baseball = 12 m/s, v =  final velocity of baseball = 0 m/s (since it stops at maximum height),  g = acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s²and h' = maximum height of ball on moon.

substituting the values of the variables, we have

h = -((0 m/s)² - (12 m/s)²)/2(9.8 m/s²)

=  -(- 12 m²/s²)/2(9.8 m/s²)

= 6 m²/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

= 0.61 m

c. What is the difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth?

The difference in the maximum height the ball reaches on the Moon compared to on Earth is d = h - h' = 3.68 m - 0.61 m = 3.07 m

(b) Calculate the sound level in dB at a seat that is 32 meters from the stage, given that the intensity decreases with the square of the distance from the source.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]1\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

[tex]0.0039\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex]I_1[/tex] = Intensity of sound at 2 m away

Sound level = 120 dB

[tex]r_1[/tex] = 2 m

[tex]r_2[/tex] = 32 m

[tex]I_0[/tex] = Threshold of sound = [tex]10^{-12}\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

Sound level is given by

[tex]dB=10\log (\dfrac{I_1}{I_0})\\\Rightarrow I_1=10^{\dfrac{dB}{10}}I_0\\\Rightarrow I_1=10^{\dfrac{120}{10}}\times 10^{-12}\\\Rightarrow I_1=1\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

The intensity of sound at 2 m away is [tex]1\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

[tex]I_1=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}[/tex]

[tex]I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=\dfrac{I_1r_1^2}{r_2^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=\dfrac{1\times 2^2}{32^2}\\\Rightarrow I_2=0.0039\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

The intensity of the sound 32 m away is [tex]0.0039\ \text{W/m}^2[/tex]

An 80.0 kg fisherman jumps into a 37.5kg boat that is at rest. If the velocity of the fisherman is 5.60m/s when he jumps from the dock, what will be the velocity of the boat and fisherman after he lands in the boat?

Answers

Answer:

The velocity of the boat and fisherman after he lands in the boat is 3.812m/s

Explanation:

We will solve this question on the general Derivation for general case of a man jumping n the boat

m = Mass of the man = 80kg

M= mass of the boat 37.5kg

V(m, g) = Velocity of man with respect to ground = 5.6m/s

V(b , g) = Velocity of boat with respect to ground = Vo = 0m/s ( rest)

velocity of the boat and fisherman after he lands in the boat = V1

As there is no external force acting on the man then we can apply conservation of the Linear Momentum.

m*V(m, g) + M*Vo = (M+m)V1

[tex]V1 = \frac{ m*V(m, g) + M*Vo}{M+m}[/tex]

 On substituting the values we get

V1 = [tex]\frac{80*5.6 + 37.5*0}{80+ 37.5}[/tex]

V1    = [tex]\frac{448}{117.5}[/tex] = 3.812 m/s

Therefore the velocity of the boat and fisherman after he lands in the boat is 3.812m/s.

Answers

Answer:

F = 0 N

Explanation:

The direction of air resistance and frictional force will be same and opposite to the direction of the driving fore of dogs. Therefore, the resultant force can be given as follows:

[tex]resultant\ Force = F = Driving\ Force\ of\ Dogs - Frictional\ Force - Air\ Resistive\ Force[/tex]here,

driving force of dogs = 600 N

Frictional Force = 150 N

Resultant Force = 450 N

Therefore,

a
Lifting the box straight up, because the incline acts as a simple machine and reduces the force required
b
Lifting the box straight up, because it requires a larger applied force to lift it straight up
c
Pushing the box up the incline, because the force is applied for a longer distance
d
Neither method, because the work is the same in both cases, since using the ramp decreases the force by the same factor that it increases the distance
