Answer:c
Explanation:
Given
Alice launches with horizontal velocity
Tom simply drops straight down from the edge
Time taken by both the person is same as they have same initial vertical velocity i.e. zero so the time taken to reach the ground is zero.
Although Alice will travel more horizontal distance compared to Tom.
Thus option c is correct
Answer:
energy that is stagnant and cannot be changed
Answer:
mu = 0.56
Explanation:
The friction force is calculated by taking into account the deceleration of the car in 25m. This can be calculated by using the following formula:
v: final speed = 0m/s (the car stops)
v_o: initial speed in the interval of interest = 60km/h
= 60(1000m)/(3600s) = 16.66m/s
x: distance = 25m
BY doing a the subject of the formula and replace the values of v, v_o and x you obtain:
with this value of a you calculate the friction force that makes this deceleration over the car. By using the Newton second's Law you obtain:
Furthermore, you use the relation between the friction force and the friction coefficient:
hence, the friction coefficient is 0.56
