A factory robot drops a 10 kg computer onto a conveyor belt running at 3.1 m/s. The materials are such that μs = 0.50 and μk = 0

Response:

x = 1.63 m

Details:

mass (m) = 10 kg

μk = 0.3

velocity (v) = 3.1 m/s

Assuming that the weight of the computer is largely applied to the belt instantaneously, we can implement the constant acceleration equation below

x = v^{2}/2a

where a = μk.g, thus

x = v^{2}/2μk.g

x = (3.1 x 3.1)/(2 x 0.3 x 9.8)

x = 1.63 m

Russ makes the diagram below to organize his notes about how Newton’s first law describes objects at equilibrium.
kicyunya [3294]
According to Newton's first law, an object remains at rest until an external force acts upon it, or an object in motion continues to move at a constant speed without accelerating.

Thus, x can solely represent a body coming to a halt. Accordingly, the last option is the most correct.

The acceleration of segment D is m/s2. Rank segments A, B , C from least accelerations to greatest acceleration. Least
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

D, C, B, A

Explanation:

The derivative from a velocity-time graph provides the acceleration value.

Segment A

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{15m/s}{1s} = 15m/s^2

Segment B

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{5m/s}{1s} = 5m/s^2

Segment C

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{0m/s}{2s} = 0m/s^2

Segment D

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-20m/s}{1s} = -20m/s^2

Sorted from the lowest to the highest acceleration:

D, C, B, A

A window washer on a hanging platform cleans the outside of windows on a skyscraper. The washer hoists the platform up the side
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

The acceleration of the platform is - 1.8 m/s²

Explanation:

The net force on a body causes that body to accelerate in the direction of the resultant force applied.

Setting up the force equilibrium for the configuration:

ma = 800 - mg

100a = 800 - 100×9.8

100a = - 180

100a = - 180

a = - 1.8 m/s²

This indicates that the body is falling downward.

a) The force's magnitude is F=2.1*10^{-4}N

, and it acts in the direction from south to north, meaning upward. b) The force's magnitude is F=2.1*10^{-4}N

, with the direction pointing towards the west. c) The magnitude of the force is F=2.1*10^{-4}N

, indicating zero force since the magnetic field aligns parallel to the current (south to north). d) Our conclusion is that the magnetic force is not substantial enough to create impactful consequences at a standard household current of 1.5 A.
