A group of physics students hypothesize that for an experiment they are performing, the speed of an object sliding down an incli

ned plane will be given by the expression v=2gd(sin(θ)−μkcos(θ))−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√. For their experiment, d=0.725meter, θ=45.0∘, μk=0.120, and g=9.80meter/second2. Use your calculator to obtain the value that their hypothesis predicts for v.

Answer:

v = 2.974

Explanation:

Perhaps the formula should be

v = √(2*g*d (sin(θ) - uk*cos(θ) )                    This is a bit easier to read.

v = √(2* 9.80*0.725(0.707 - 0.12*0.707) )   Substitute values. Find 2*g*d

v = √14.21 * (0.707 - 0.0849)                        Figure out Sin(θ) - uk cos(θ)  

v = √14.21 * (0.6222)

v = √8.8422                                                  Take the square root of the value

v = 2.974

Answer:

v = 2.97 m/s

Explanation:

As we know that the velocity expression for the given experiment is

v = \sqrt{2gd(sin\theta - \mu_kcos\theta)}

now we know that

d = 0.725 m

\theta = 45 ^o

\mu_k = 0.120

g = 9.80

now we have

v = \sqrt{2(9.80)(0.725)(sin45 - 0.120cos45)}

v = 2.97 m/s

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

A) 12.08 m/s

B) 19.39 m/s

Explanation:

A) Down the hill, we will apply Newton’s second law of motion in the downward direction to get:

mg(sinθ) – F_k = ma

Where; F_k is frictional force due to kinetic friction given by the formula;

F_k = (μ_k) × F_n

F_n is normal force given by mgcosθ

Thus;

F_k = μ_k(mg cosθ)

We now have;

mg(sinθ) – μ_k(mg cosθ) = ma

Dividing through by m to get;

g(sinθ) – μ_k(g cosθ) = a

a = 9.8(sin 12.03) - 0.6(9.8 × cos 12.03)

a = -3.71 m/s²

We are told that distance d = 24.0 m and v_o = 18 m/s

Using newton's 3rd equation of motion, we have;

v = √(v_o² + 2ad)

v = √(18² + (2 × -3.71 × 24))

v = 12.08 m/s

B) Now, μ_k = 0.10

Thus;

a = 9.8(sin 12.03) - 0.1(9.8 × cos 12.03)

a = 1.08 m/s²

Using newton's 3rd equation of motion, we have;

v = √(v_o + 2ad)

v = √(18² + (2 × 1.08 × 24))

v = 19.39 m/s

<span>As it is descended from a vertical height h, The lost Potential Energy = Mgh The gained Kenetic Energy = (1/2)Mv^2; The rotational KE = (1/2)Jw^2 The angular speed w = speed/ Radius = v/R So Rotational KE = (1/2)Jw^2 = (1/2)J(v/R)^2; J is moment of inertia Now Mgh = (1/2)Mv^2 + (1/2)J(v/R)^2 => 2gh/v^2 = 1 + (J/MR^2) As v = (5gh/4)^1/2, (J/MR^2) = 2gh/v^2 - 1 => (J/MR^2) = (8gh/5gh) - 1 so (J/MR^2) = 3/5 and therefore J = (3/5)MR^2.</span>

What is the initial velocity of the object represented by the graph? ___m/s Graph:
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

On a velocity-time graph… slope is acceleration. the "y" intercept is the initial velocity. when two curves coincide, the two objects have the same velocity at that time.
