A horizontal force of P=100 N is just sufficient to hold the crate from sliding down the plane, and a horizontal force of P=350 N is required to just push the crate up the plane. Determine the coefficient of static friction between the plane and the crate, and find the mass of the crate.

Answers

Answer 1

"down/up the plane" suggests an inclined plane, but no angle is given so I'll call it θ for the time being.

The free body diagram for the crate in either scenario is the same, except for the direction in which static friction is exerted on the crate. With the P = 100 N force holding up the crate, static friction points up the incline and keeps the crate from sliding downward. When P = 350 N, the crate is pushed upward, so static friction points down. (see attached FBDs)

Using Newton's second law, we set up the following equations.

• p = 100 N

F (parallel) = f + p cos(θ) - mg sin(θ) = 0

F (perpendicular) = n - p sin(θ) - mg cos(θ) = 0

P = 350 N

F (parallel) = P cos(θ) - F - mg sin(θ) = 0

F (perpendicular) = N - P sin(θ) - mg cos(θ) = 0

(where n and N are the magnitudes of the normal force in the respective scenarios; ditto for f and F which denote static friction, so that f = µn and F = µN, with µ = coefficient of static friction)

Solve for n and N :

n = p sin(θ) + mg cos(θ)

N = P sin(θ) - mg cos(θ)

Substitute these into the corresponding equations containing µ, and solve for µ :

µ = (mg sin(θ) - p cos(θ)) / (mg cos(θ) + p sin(θ))

µ = (P cos(θ) - mg sin(θ)) / (P sin(θ) + mg cos(θ))

Next, you would set these equal and solve for m :

(mg sin(θ) - p cos(θ)) / (mg cos(θ) + p sin(θ)) = (P cos(θ) - mg sin(θ)) / (P sin(θ) + mg cos(θ))

...

Once you find m, you back-substitute and solve for µ, but as you might expect the result will be pretty complicated. If you take a simple angle like θ = 30°, you would end up with

m ≈ 36.5 kg

µ ≈ 0.256

A Horizontal Force Of P=100 N Is Just Sufficient To Hold The Crate From Sliding Down The Plane, And A
Answer 2

The coefficient of static friction between the plane and the crate is μ = 0.256 and the mass of the crate is m=36.4 kg.

From the given,

The force that opposes the crate by sliding is P = 100N

In X-axis, the sum of forces is zero.

ΣF = 0

Pcosθ - mgsinθ-Ff = 0

Ff = Pcosθ - mgsinθ

In Y-axis

Psinθ - mgcosθ - N = 0

N = Psinθ-mgcosθ

Frictional force, Ff = μN, μ is the coefficient of friction

Ff = μN

Pcos30- mgsin30 + μ( Psin30+mgcos30) = 0

μ = mgsin30-Pcos30/Psin30+mgcos30 ------1

The block is sliding with the horizontal force, F = 350N

X-axis

P₂cosθ - mgsinθ-Ff = 0

Y-axis

P₂sinθ - mgcosθ - N = 0

N = P₂sinθ-mgcosθ

μ = P₂cos30-mgsin30/P₂sin30-mgcos30   -----2

Equate equations 1 and 2

mgsin30-Pcos30/Psin30+mgcos30 =P₂cos30-mgsin30/P₂sin30-mgcos30

4.905m-86.6/50+8.49 = 303.1-4.905m/175+8.49

41.7m² + 123m - 1.516×10⁴ = 0

-41.7m² +2330m -1.516×10⁴(4.905-86.6)(175+8.49) =(303.1-4.905)(50+8.49)

83.4m² - 2207m -3.03×10⁴ = 0

m= 36.4 kg

Hence, the mass of the crate is 36.4 Kg.

Substitute the value of m in equation 1,

μ = 4.905(36.4) - 86.6 / 50 + 8.49

μ  = 0.256

Thus, the coefficient of static friction is 0.256.

a)    v = 517.99 m / s,  b) θ = 296.3º

Explanation:

This is an exercise in kinematics, we are going to solve each axis independently

X axis

the acceleration is aₓ = 5.10 1 / S², they are on for t = 670 s and reaches a speed of vₓ=  3670 m / s, let's use the relation

           vₓ = v₀ₓ + aₓ t

           v₀ₓ = vₓ - aₓ t

           v₀ₓ = 3670 - 5.10 670

           v₀ₓ = 253 m / s

Y axis  

the acceleration is ay = 7.30 m / s², with a velocity of 4378 m / s after

t = 670 s

          v_y = v_{oy} + a_y t

          v_{oy} = v_y - a_y t

          v_oy} = 4378 - 7.30 670

          v_{oy}  = -513 m / s

to find the velocity modulus we use the Pythagorean theorem

          v = [tex]\sqrt{v_o_x^2 + v_o_y^2}[/tex]

          v = [tex]\sqrt{253^2 +513^2}[/tex]

          v = 517.99 m / s

to find the direction we use trigonometry

         tan θ ’= [tex]\frac{v_o_y}{v_o_x}[/tex]

         θ'= tan⁻¹  [tex]\frac{voy}{voy}[/tex]  

         θ'= tan⁻¹ (-513/253)

         tea '= -63.7

the negative sign indicates that it is below the ax axis, in the fourth quadrant

          θ = 296.3º

0. The temperature of source is 500K with source energy 2003, what is the temperature of sink with sink energy 100 J? a. 500 K b. 300 K c. 250 K d. 125 K​

Answers

Answer:

c. 250k

Explanation:

The temperature of the sink is approximately 250 K.

To find the temperature of the sink, we can use the formula for the efficiency of a heat engine:

Efficiency = 1 - (Temperature of Sink / Temperature of Source)

Given that the temperature of the source (T_source) is 500 K and the source energy (Q_source) is 2003 J, and the sink energy (Q_sink) is 100 J, we can rearrange the formula to solve for the temperature of the sink (T_sink):

Efficiency = (Q_source - Q_sink) / Q_source

Efficiency = (2003 J - 100 J) / 2003 J

Efficiency = 1903 J / 2003 J

Efficiency = 0.9497

Now, plug the efficiency back into the first equation to solve for T_sink:

0.9497 = 1 - (T_sink / 500 K)

T_sink / 500 K = 1 - 0.9497

T_sink / 500 K = 0.0503

Now, isolate T_sink:

T_sink = 0.0503 * 500 K

T_sink = 25.15 K

Since the temperature should be in Kelvin, we round down to the nearest whole number, which is 25 K. Thus, the temperature of the sink is approximately 250 K.

A satellite of mass m, originally on the surface of the Earth, is placed into Earth orbit at an altitude h. (a) Assuming a circular orbit, how long does the satellite take to complete one orbit

Answers

Answer:

 T = 5.45 10⁻¹⁰   [tex]\sqrt{(R_e + h)^3}[/tex]

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second law

          F = ma

force is the universal force of attraction and acceleration is centripetal

          G m M / r² = m v² / r

          G M / r = v²

as the orbit is circular, the speed of the satellite is constant, so we can use the kinematic relations of uniform motion

          v = d / T

the length of a circle is

          d = 2π r

we substitute

        G M / r = 4π² r² / T²

        T² = [tex]\frac{4\pi ^2 }{GM} \ r^3[/tex]

the distance r is measured from the center of the Earth (Re), therefore

        r = Re + h

where h is the height from the planet's surface

b. The change in gravitational potential energy of the person + Earch system is:

Answers

Answer:

a)   W_total = mg (2h + d)   , b)     E_total = - mg (h + d)

Explanation:

a) We must solve this problem in two parts, the first for the accelerated movement and the second for the movement with constant speed

Let's look for work for the part that is in free fall

        y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

when he jumps out of a plane his vertical speed is zero

        y =y₀ - ½ g t²

        dy = 0 - ½ g 2t dt

the work in this first part is

        W₁ = ∫ F dy

        W₁ = mg ∫ g t dt

        W₁ = m g² t² / 2

the time it takes to travel the distance y₀-y = h is

         y₀-y = ½ g t²

         

         t =[tex]\sqrt{2h/g}[/tex]

we substitute

          W₁ = m g² 2h / g

          W₁ = m g 2h

now we look for the work for the part with constant speed

since the velocity is constant let's use the uniform motion ratio

          W₂ = F d

           W₂ = mg d

       

the total work is

           W_total = W₁ + W₂

           W_total = 2mgh + m gd

           W_total = mg (2h + d)

b) The change in gravitational potential energy

           U = mg Δy

in the part with accelerated movement

           U₁ = mg h

in the part with uniform movement

            U₂ = mg d

the total potential energy is

           E_total = U₁ + U₂

           E_total = - mg (h + d)

The atoms in your body are mostly empty space . And so are the atoms in any wall. Why then is your body unable to pass through walls ?

Answers

First of all, both are not a single sheet of atom. There are many layers of atoms, so the empty part gets beside each other, so there are less empty part. Secondly, there are so many atoms that the probability that they will have empty space at the same place necessary, is negligible.

This was something from logic.

A coin and feather are dropped in a moon. what will fall earlier on ground.give reasons.if they are dropped in the earth,which one will fall faster?

Answers

Answer:

When an object is dropped, the "principal" force that acts on that object is the gravitational force.

Thus, in the absence of air resistance and such, the acceleration of the object will be equal to the gravitational acceleration:

g = 9.8m/s^2

So, when we drop objects in the moon (where there is no air) the acceleration of every object will be exactly the same. (so there is no dependence in the mass or shape of the object)

Thus, if we drop a coin and a feather in the moon, both objects will fall with the same acceleration, and then both objects will hit the ground at the same time.

But if we are in Earth, we can not ignore the air resistance (a force that acts in the opposite direction than the movement of the object)

And this force depends on the shape and mass of the object (for example, something with a really larger surface and really thin, like a sheet of paper will be more affected by this force than a small rock)

Then here, when the air resistance applies, we should expect that the heavier and smaller object (the coin) to be less affected by this force, then the resistance that the coin experiences is smaller, then the coin falls "faster" than the feather.

Which one of the following statements concerning resistors in "parallel" is true? Question 7 options: The voltage across each resistor is the same. The current through each resistor is the same. The total current through the resistors is the sum of the current through each resistor. The power dissipated by each resistor is the same.

Answers

Answer: The correct statement is:

--> The voltage across each resistor is the same.

Explanation:

RESISTORS are defined as the components of an electric circuit which are capable of creating resistance to the file of electric current in the circuit. They work by converting electrical energy into heat, which is dissipated into the air. These resistors can be divided into two according to their arrangements in the electric cell. It include:

--> Resistors in parallel and

--> Resistors in series

RESISTORS are said to be in parallel when two or more resistance or conductors are connected to common terminals so that the potential difference ( voltage) across each conductor IS THE SAME but with different current flow through each of them. Also, Individual resistances diminish to equal a smaller total resistance rather than add to make the total.

However there is a centripetal acceleration acting on the ball that holds it in its circular motion (i.e. tension, or gravity). Since centripetal is perpendicular to the tangential direction, acceleration and velocity are in different directions.

A horse gallops a distance of 10 kilometers in a time of 30 minutes its average speed is?

Answers

Answer:

20 km/hr

Explanation:

Distance = 10km

Time = 30 minutes = 1/2 hour

Average Speed = Total distance / Total Time Taken

                           = 10 ÷  1/2

                           = 10 x 2

                           = 20 km/hr

Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Average speed = (10 km) / (30 minutes)

Average speed =  1/3 km/min

Most people would probably want to see it in a more convenient, more familiar unit, such as km/hour or m/second.

(10 km / 30 min) x (60 min / hour) = (10 x 60 / 30) (km-min / min-hour)

Average speed = 20 km/hour

AvgSpd = (10 km / 30 min) x (1,000 m / km) x (min / 60 sec)

AvgSpd = (10x1,000 / 30x60) (km-m-min / min-km-sec)

Averge Speed =  5.56 m/s

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the gravitational acceleration:

We know that the original period is of 2.00 s, then:

T = 2.00s

We can solve that for L, the original length:

[tex]2.00s = 2*3.14*\sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m/s^2} }\\\\\frac{2s}{2*3.14} = \sqrt{\frac{L}{9.8m/s^2}}\\\\(\frac{2s}{2*3.14})^2*9.8m/s^2 = L = 0.994m[/tex]

So if we triple the length of the pendulum, we will have:

L' = 3*0.994m = 2.982m

The new period will be:

[tex]T = 2*3.14*\sqrt{\frac{2.982m}{9.8 m/s^2} } = 3.464s[/tex]

The new period will be 3.464 seconds.

(b) At 4.00 s after fuel ignition, what is the acceleration of the rocket, and (c) what thrust force does the burning fuel exert on it, assuming no air resistance? Express the thrust in newtons and as a multiple of the rocket’s weight. (d) What was the initial thrust due to the fuel?

Answers

Answer:

a) A = 1.50 m / s²,  B = 1.33 m/s³,  b) a = 12.1667 m / s²,

c)  I = M (1.5 t + 1.333 t²) ,  d)  ΔI = M 2.833   N

Explanation:

In this exercise give the expression for the speed of the rocket

         v (t) = A t + B t²

and the initial conditions

         a = 1.50 m / s² for t = 0 s

         v = 2.00 m / s for t = 1.00 s

a) it is asked to determine the constants.

Let's look for acceleration with its definition

         a = [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}[/tex]

         a = A + 2B t

we apply the first condition t = 0 s

         a = A

         A = 1.50 m / s²

we apply the second condition t = 1.00 s

          v = 1.5 1 + B 1²

          2 = 1.5 + B

          B = 2 / 1.5

          B = 1.33 m/s³

the equation remains

           v = 1.50 t + 1.333 t²

b) the acceleration for t = 4.00 s

           a = 1.50 + 1.333 2t

           a = 1.50 + 2.666 4

           a = 12.1667 m / s²

c) The thrust

           I = ∫ F dt = p_f - p₀

           

Newton's second law

          F = M a

          F = M (1.5 + 2 1.333 t) dt

           

we replace and integrate

         I = M ∫ (1.5 + 2.666 t) dt

         I = 1.5 t + 2.666 t²/2

         I = M (1.5 t + 1.333 t²) + cte

in general the initial rockets with velocity v = 0 for t = 0, where we can calculate the constant

         cte = 0

         I = M (1.5 t + 1.333 t²)

d) the initial push

For this we must assume some small time interval, for example between

t = 0 s and t = 1 s

        ΔI = I_f - I₀

        ΔI = M (1.5 1 + 1.333 1²)

[tex]PV^{1.4}=C[/tex]

Where C=Constant

[tex]\frac{dP}{dt}=-7KPa/minute[/tex]

V=420 cubic cm and P=99KPa

We have to find the rate at which the  volume increasing at this instant.

Differentiate w.r.t t

[tex]V^{1.4}\frac{dP}{dt}+1.4V^{0.4}P\frac{dV}{dt}=0[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex](420)^{1.4}\times (-7)+1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)\frac{dV}{dt}=0[/tex]

[tex]1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)\frac{dV}{dt}=(420)^{1.4}\times (7)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{(420)^{1.4}\times (7)}{1.4(420)^{0.4}(99)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=21.21cm^3/min[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\dot V=2786.52~cm^3/min[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

initial pressure during adiabatic expansion of air, [tex]P_1=99~kPa[/tex]

initial volume during the process, [tex]V_1=420~cm^3[/tex]

The adiabatic process is governed by the relation [tex]PV^{1.4}=C[/tex] ; where C is a constant.

Rate of decrease in pressure, [tex]\dot P=7~kPa/min[/tex]

Then the rate of change in volume, [tex]\dot V[/tex] can be determined as:

[tex]P_1.V_1^{1.4}=\dot P.\dot V^{1.4}[/tex]

[tex]99\times 420^{1.4}=7\times V^{1.4}[/tex]

[tex]\dot V=2786.52~cm^3/min[/tex]

[tex]\because P\propto\frac{1}{V}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore[/tex] The rate of change in volume will be increasing.

SCALCET8 3.9.018.MI. A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed of 1.7 m/s, how fast is the length of his shadow on the building decreasing when he is 4 m from the building

Answers

Answer:

The length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s

Explanation:

The ray of light hitting the ground forms a right angled triangle of height H, which is the height of the building and width, D which is the distance of the tip of the shadow from the building.

Also, the height of the man, h which is parallel to H forms a right-angled triangle of width, L which is the length of the shadow.

By similar triangles,

H/D = h/L

L = hD/H

Also, when the man is 4 m from the building, the length of his shadow is L = D - 4

So, D - 4 = hD/H

H(D - 4) = hD

H = hD/(D - 4)

Since h = 2 m and D = 12 m,

H = 2 m × 12 m/(12 m - 4 m)

H = 24 m²/8 m

H = 3 m

Since L = hD/H

and h and H are constant, differentiating L with respect to time, we have

dL/dt = d(hD/H)/dt

dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H

Now dD/dt = velocity(speed) of man = -1.7 m/s ( negative since he is moving towards the building in the negative x - direction)

Since h = 2 m and H = 3 m,

dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H

dL/dt = 2 m(-1.7 m/s)/3 m

dL/dt = -3.4/3 m/s

dL/dt = -1.13 m/s

So, the length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s

The sound level measured in a room by a person watching a movie on a home theater system varies from 40 dB during a quiet part to 80 dB during a loud part. Approximately how many times louder is the latter sound

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\alpha=-3.01dB[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sound level intensity

 [tex]\triangle I=40dB-80dB[/tex]

Generally the equation for  intensity level  is mathematically given by

 [tex]\alpha=10log_{10}(I/I_x)dB[/tex]

Where

 I= Intensity measured

 [tex]I_x=Threshold\ of\ audibility[/tex]

 [tex]I_x= 10-12 W / m2[/tex]

 [tex]\alpha= 10 log10 \frac{I_1}{I_x} - 10 log10 \frac{}I_2{I_x}[/tex]

 [tex]\alpha= 10 log10 \frac{I_1}{I_2}[/tex]

 [tex]\alpha=10 log10\frac{40}{80}[/tex]

 [tex]\alpha=-3.01dB[/tex]

Newspapers often talk about an energy crisis-about running out of certain energy sources in the not-so-distant future. About which kind of energy sources are they talking

Answers

Answer:

Nonrenewable energy

Explanation:

Renewable energy is also known as clean energy and it can be defined as a type of energy that are generated through natural sources or technology-based processes that are replenished constantly. Some examples of these natural sources are water (hydropower), wind (wind energy), sun (solar power), geothermal, biomass, waves etc.

Basically, a renewable energy source is sustainable and as such can not be exhausted.

On the other hand, a non-renewable energy refers to an energy source such as fossil fuels that takes a very long time to be created or their creation happened long ago and isn't likely to happen again e.g uranium.

For example, fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, come from deep inside the Earth where they formed over millions of years ago.

In this scenario, the kind of energy the newspaper sources are talking about is a nonrenewable energy source because they are capable of being exhausted in the not-so-distant future.

A closely wound, circular coil with radius 2.70 cm has 800 turns. What must the current in the coil be if the magnetic field at the center of the coil is 0.0750 T

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 4.029 A

Explanation:

We can use the formula that the B field of a few loops all with current in same direction is permeability of free space (mu)* current * Number or loops divided by 2*radius. You are given B field, radius(convert into meters), number of loops and mu is 4pi * 10^-7. Solve for current and you get 4.029 Amperes.
