Answer:

0.02

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction = μ

force of friction = Ff

Normal Force = FN, but

FN = -W

Ff = -μFN

so μ = Ff/FN

= 4N/200N

= 0.02.

Sati [7]

Answer:

  h = v₀² / 2g ,      h = k/4g     x²

Explanation:

In this exercise we can use the law of conservation of energy at two points, the lowest, before the shot and the highest point that the mouse reaches

Starting point. Lower compressed spring

              Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final point. Highest on the path

             Em_{f} = U = mg h

             

As or no friction the energy is conserved  

              Em₀ =  Em_{f}

              ½ m v₀²² = m g h

             h = v₀² / 2g

We can also use as initial energy the energy stored in the spring that will later be transferred to the mouse

                  ½ k x² = 2 g h

                  h = k/4g     x²

Dovator [93]

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
