The density of an object can be calculated using the formula Density = Mass/Volume.
Experimental Density:
Density = 153.8g / 20.00 cm^3
Density = 7.69g/cm^3
Percent error equation:
% Error = | Theoretical Value - Experimental Value|/Theoretical Value * 100
% Error = | 7.87g/cm^3 - 7.69g/cm^3|/7.87g/cm^3 * 100
% Error = 2.29%
Therefore a is the correct answer.
Hello
Here we must use the equation of motion
v^2 = u^2 + 2as; where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is the acceleratoin and is the distance travelled.
We select this one because the time of collision is unknown to us.
We know the truck stopped so its final velocity is 0; thus v = 0.
Converting the initial velocity to SI units, we get 3.89 m/s.
The distance traveled, s, is 0.062 meters.
Inserting all of these values into the equation,
0 = (3.89)^2 + 2(a)(0.062)
and solving for a, we get a to be
-122.0 ms^(-2)
The negative sign indicates the acceleration is in the opposite direction to the initial motion, which means the truck decelerated. This is consistent with the given condition.
The object is at rest is the answer.
Static friction is what you are looking for.
Kinetic friction is the force exerted on an already moving object, slowing it down.
