The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each second. The push force has a horizontal component of 20 N and a vertical component of 25 N downward. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor.
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
= 20 N, = 25 N, a = -0.9
W = 83 N
m =
= 8.46
Now, we will balance the forces along the y-component as follows.
N = W +
= 83 + 25 = 108 N
Now, balancing the forces along the x component as follows.
= ma
= 7.614 N
Also, we know that relation between force and coefficient of friction is as follows.
=
= 0.0705
Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.0705.
Answer:
2420 J
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Force (F) = 22.9 N
Angle (θ) = 35°
Distance (d) = 129 m
Workdone (Wd) =?
The work done can be obtained by using the following formula:
Wd = Fd × Cos θ
Wd = 22.9 × 129 × Cos 35
Wd = 22.9 × 129 × 0.8192
Wd ≈ 2420 J
Thus, the workdone is 2420 J.
v = average speed of movement of the Southwest Indian Ridge = 20 mm/year
d = distance moved by the Southwest Indian Ridge = 100 mm
t = number of years required to move distance "d"
distance traveled is given as
d = v t
inserting the above values in the formula
100 mm = (20 mm/year) t
dividing both side by 20 mm/year
t = 100 mm/(20 mm/year)
t = 5 years
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy = mgh = (5)(9.81)(7) = 343.35J.
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
We shall apply the concept of impulse .
Impulse = force x time = change in momentum
= 5 x 4 = 2 ( V - 3 ) , where V is final velocity of the object
20 = 2V - 6
V = 13 m /s
b )
Impulse applied = - 7 x 4 = - 28 kg m/s ( negative as direction of force is opposite motion )
If v be the final velocity
2 x 3 - 28 = 2 v ( initial momentum - change in momentum = final momentum )
- 22 = 2v
v = - 11 m /s
object will move with 11 m /s in opposite direction .
