Answer:

The coefficient of friction of the sled is 0.115

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the sled, m = 46.6 kg

Frictional force acting on it, F = 52.9 N

We need to find the coefficient of friction. Frictional force is given by :

$F=\mu mg$

$\mu=\dfrac{F}{mg}$

$\mu=\dfrac{52.9\ N}{46.6\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}$

$\mu = 0.115$

So, the coefficient of friction of the sled is 0.115. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

F=UR

52.9=U*46.6

U=52.9/46.6

U=1.135

A body A of mass 1.5kg, travelling along the positive x-axis with speed 4.5m/s, collides with another body B of mass 3.2kg which

Pie

Momentum before the collision
x-direction:
p = m₁v₁ = 1.5 * 4.5 = 6.75
x-direction:
p = 0

momentum after the collision is conserved:
x-direction:
p = 6.75 = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = 1.5 * 2. 1* cos -30° + 3.2 * v₂*cos θ
y-direction:
p = 0 = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = 1.5 * 2.1 * sin -30° + 3.2 * v₂ * sin θ

Solve the two equations for v₂ and θ.

Jo, Daniel and Helen are pulling a metal ring. Jo pulls with a force of 100N in one direction and Daniel with a force of 140N in

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

she is pulling with 40 N force

Explanation:

The ring does not move means that the forces are equal.

Let's call Jo's force x

We have the quation

140 = x + 100

x = 40

The 12.2-m crane weighs 18 kn and is lifting a 67-kn load. the hoisting cable (tension t1) passes over a pulley at the top of th

charle [14.2K]

I can't seem to figure out the angle between T1 and T2. So suppose, it is 10º; then T2 makes an angle of 35º w/r/t horizontal, and T1 makes an angle of 45º.
Sum the moments about the base of the crane; Σ M = 0. 0 = T2*cos35*L*cos40 + T1*cos45*L*cos40 - T2*sin35*L*sin40 - T1*sin45*L*sin40 - W*(L/2)*sin40 - T1*L*sin40 → length L cancels where W = 18 kN
0 = 0.259*T2 - 43kN T2 = 166 kN

Complete Question

An aluminum "12 gauge" wire has a diameter d of 0.205 centimeters. The resistivity ρ of aluminum is 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters. The electric field in the wire changes with time as E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004 newtons per coulomb, where time is measured in seconds.

I = 1.2 A at time 5 secs.

Find the charge Q passing through a cross-section of the conductor between time 0 seconds and time 5 seconds.

Answer:

The charge is $Q =2.094 C$
