A box mass of 24kg is being pulled horizontally on a rough surface by an applied force of 585N. The coefficient of kinetic frict

ion is 0.23 between the box and the surface.

the normal force is the force applied opposite to the weight of the was box. So the normal force is equal to the weight of the box = 24 kg *(9.81 m/s2) = 235.44 N

the acceleration of the box be solve using newtons 2nd law of motion:

F = ma

a = F/ m = 585 N/ 24 kg = 24.38 m/s2

Answer:

a. 235.2 N

b. 22 m/s²

Explanation:

a) As there is no displacement in vertical direction, the normal force would be equal to the weight of the box.

N = mg

N = (24 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 235.2 N

b) Let the acceleration of the box be a such that net force acting on the box is F.

F = ma

F = applied force - force due to friction

Force due to friction = μ N

F = 585 N - (0.23)(235.2)

m a = 530.9

a = 22 m/s²

A star is moving toward the earth with a speed of 0.9 c (90% the speed of light). it emits light, which moves away from the star
Bad White [126]
The speed of light is constant in ALL frames of reference. That is 2.9 x10^8 m/s (290,000,000 m/s). It is independent of the motion of the light source.

(4%) Problem 10: The standard frequency of the musical pitch called "middle C" is 261.6 Hz. show answer No Attempt How fast, in
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

16.77 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Frequency of middle pitch, Fo = 261.6 Hz

Frequency of C sharp, f = 277.2 Hz

Velocity of sound in air, v = 298 m/s

Speed of sound from the source, Vs = ? m/s

Using the formula

f = Fo•(V + Vr)/(V + Vs)

← Doppler

Vr would be +ve if the receiver is moving toward source;

Vs would be -ve if source is moving toward the receiver

277.2 Hz = 261.6Hz * (298 + 0) / (298 - Vs)

277.2 = 77956.8 / (298 - Vs)

298 - Vs = 77956.8 / 277.2

298 - Vs = 281.23

Vs = 298 - 281.23

Vs = 16.77 m/s

Thus, the speed needed is 16.77 m/s

Alicia can row 6 miles downstream in the same time it takes her to row 4 miles upstream. She rows downstream 3 miles/hour faster
m_a_m_a [10]
Let us assume the upstream rowing rate of Alicia = x
Let us assume the downstream rowing rate of Alicia = y
We already know that
Travelling time = Distance traveled/rowing rate
Then
6/(x + 3) = 4/x
6x = 4x + 12
6x - 4x = 12
2x = 12
x = 6
Then
Rowing rate of Alicia going upstream = 6 miles per hour
Rowing rate of Alicia going downstream = 9 miles per hour.

There is an electromagnetic wave traveling in the -z direction in a standard right-handed coordinate system. What is the directi
wlad13 [49]

Answer: The direction of the electric field, E→, is pointed in the +y direction.

Explanation:

One can use the right hand rule to illustrate the direction of travel of an electromagnetic and thereby get the directions of the electric field, magnetic field and direction of travel of the wave.

The right hand rule states that the direction of the thumb indicate the direction of travel of the electromagnetic wave (<em>in this case the -z direction</em>) and the curling of the fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field  B→ (<em>in this case the +x direction</em>), therefore, the electric field direction E→ is in the direction of the fingers which would be pointed towards the +y direction.
