A semi is traveling down the highway at a velocity of v = 26 m/s. The driver observes a wreck ahead, locks his brakes, and begin

s to slide. The truck has mass m and a coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and the road of μk = 0.26.
Write an expression for the sum of the forces in the x-direction for the truck while braking.

Answer:

fcosθ + Fbcosθ  =Wtanθ

Explanation:

Consider the diagram shown in attachment

fx= fcosθ (fx: component of friction force in x-direction ; f: frictional force)

Fbx= Fbcosθ ( Fbx: component of braking force in x-direction ; Fb: braking force)

Wx= Wtanθ (Wx: component of weight in x-direction ; W: Weight of semi)

sum of x-direction forces = 0

fx+ Fbx=Wx

fcosθ + Fbcosθ  =Wtanθ

The constant pressure molar heat capacity, C_{p,m}C p,m ​ , of nitrogen gas, N_2N 2 ​ , is 29.125\text{ J K}^{-1}\text{ mol}^{-1
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Constant pressure molar heat capacity Cp = 29.125 J /K.mol

If Cv be constant volume molar heat capacity

Cp - Cv = R

Cv = Cp - R

= 29.125 - 8.314 J

= 20.811 J

change in internal energy = n x Cv x Δ T

n is number of moles , Cv is molar heat capacity at constant volume ,  Δ T is change in temperature

Putting the values

= 20 x 20.811 x 15

= 6243.3 J.

If Emily throws the ball at an angle of 30∘ below the horizontal with a speed of 14m/s, how far from the base of the dorm should
liubo4ka [24]

Emily throws the ball at 30 degree below the horizontal

so here the speed is 14 m/s and hence we will find its horizontal and vertical components

v_x = 14 cos30 = 12.12 m/s

v_y = 14 sin30 = 7 m/s

vertical distance between them

\delta y = 4 m

now we will use kinematics in order to find the time taken by the ball to reach at Allison

\delat y = v_y *t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

here acceleration is due to gravity

a = 9.8 m/s^2

now we will have

4 = 7 * t + \frac{1}{2}*9.8 * t^2

now solving above quadratic equation we have

t = 0.44 s

now in order to find the horizontal distance where ball will fall is given as

d = v_x * t

here it shows that horizontal motion is uniform motion and it is not accelerated so we can use distance = speed * time

d = 12.12 * 0.44 = 5.33 m

so the distance at which Allison is standing to catch the ball will be 5.33 m

Tammy leaves the office, drives 26 km due
fredd [130]

Answer:

72.98 km

Explanation:

Her displacement is simply the distance from her final position to her initial position.

Now, I've drawn and attached a triangle diagram to depict this her movement.

Point O is her initial starting point.

Point A is the first point she gets to after travelling north while point B is the final point after travelling north east.

From the triangle, the displacement will be the distance OB which is denoted by x and can be solved from cosine rule.

Thus;

x² = 62² + 26² - 2(62 × 26)cos 120

x² = 4520 + 806

x² = 5326

x = √5326

x = 72.98 km

The speed v of a sound wave traveling in a medium that has bulk modulus b and mass density ρ (mass divided by the volume) is v=b
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

As it is given that Bulk modulus  and density related to velocity of sound

v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho}}

by rearranging the equation we can say

B = \rho * v^2

now we need to find the SI unit of Bulk modulus here

we can find it by plug in the units of density and speed here

B = \frac{kg}{m^3} * (\frac{m}{s})^2

so SI unit will be

B = \frac{kg}{m* s^2}

SO above is the SI unit of bulk Modulus
