A student, along with her backpack on the floor next to her, are in an elevator that is accelerating upward with acceleration a.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

$\mu_k = \frac{2(vt - L)}{(g + a) t^2}$

Explanation:

As we know that backpack is kicked on the rough floor with speed "v"

So here as per force equation in vertical direction we know that

$N - mg = ma$

so normal force on the block is given as

$N = mg + ma$

now the magnitude of kinetic friction on the block is given as

$F_f = \mu N$

$F_f = \mu (mg + ma)$

now when bag is sliding on the floor then net deceleration of the block due to friction is given as

$a = - \frac{F_f}{m}$

$a = -\mu_k(g + a)$

now we know that bag hits the opposite wall at L distance away in time t

so we have

$d = v t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$L = vt - \frac{1}{2}(\mu_k)(g + a) t^2$

$\mu_k = \frac{2(vt - L)}{(g + a) t^2}$

Suppose Earth's mass increased but Earth's diame-

navik [9.2K]

Answer: It would increase.

Explanation:

The equation for determining the force of the gravitational pull between any two objects is:

$F = G \frac{m1m2}{r^2}$

Where G is the universal gravitational constant, m1 is the mass of one body, m2 is the mass of the other body, and r^2 is the distance between the two objects' centers squared.

Assuming the Earth's mass but not its diameter increased, in the equation above m1 (the term usually indicative of the object of larger mass) would increase, while the r^2 would not.

Thus, it goes without saying that, with some simple reasoning about fractions, an increasing numerator over a constant denominator would result in a larger number to multiply by G, thus also meaning a larger gravitational strength between Earth and whatever other object is of interest.

A snowboarder travels 150 m down a mountain slope that is 65 degrees above horizontal. What is his vertical displacement?

choli [55]

This can be answered using trigonometric analysis. This sloped path that is 150 m long is the hypotenuse of the triangle. The adjacent angle would then be 65 degrees. Given these:

sin 65 = h / 150

Where: h = vertical displacement = 150 (sin 65)
h = 135.95 meters
