A 5 kg block moves with a constant speed of 10 ms to the right on a smooth surface where frictional forces are considered to be

negligible.
It passes through a 2.0 m rough section of the surface where friction is not negligible, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the rough section μk is 0.2.

What is the change in the kinetic energy of the block as it passes through the rough section?

Answer:

The work done, W = 19.6 J

Explanation:

It’s provided that

The mass of the block, m = 5 kg

The velocity of the block, v = 10 m/s

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and rough surface is 0.2

Distance traveled by the block, d = 2 m

As the block traverses the rough section, it loses energy equal to the work done by the kinetic energy.

W=\mu_kmgd

W=0.2\times 5\times 9.8\times 2

W = 19.6 J

Thus, the change in kinetic energy of the block moving through the rough section is 19.6 J. Consequently, this is the required answer.

Answer:

19.6 J

Explanation:

mass of the block, m = 5 kg

initial velocity, u = 10 m/s

friction coefficient, μk = 0.2

distance, s = 2 m

Let v represent the velocity after passing over the frictional surface

Employ the third equation of motion

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 10² - 2 x 0.2 x 9.8 x 2

v² = 100 - 7.84

Thus, v = 9.6 m/s

initial kinetic energy, Ki = 0.5 x m x u²

Ki = 0.5 x 5 x 10 x 10 = 250 J

final kinetic energy

Kf = 0.5 x m x v² = 0.5 x 5 x 9.6 x 9.6 = 230.4 J

The change in kinetic energy, K =  Kf - Ki = 250 - 230.4 = 19.6 J

A water jet that leaves a nozzle at 60 m/s at a flow rate of 120 kg/s is to be used to generate power by striking the buckets lo
Ostrovityanka [2204]

Response:

216000 W or 216 kW

Details:

Power: This refers to the rate at which energy is utilized or consumed. The standard unit for power is the Watt (W).

In general,

Power = Energy/time

P = E/t........................ Equation 1.

However,

E = 1/2mv²..................... Equation 2

with m representing mass, and v indicating velocity.

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1,

P = 1/2mv²/t...................... Equation 3

Assuming flow rate (Q) = m/t,

Q = m/t................ Equation 4

Insert equation 4 into equation 3,

P = Qv²/2........................ Equation 5

Where Q stands for flow rate, v is velocity, and P denotes power.

Given: Q = 120 kg/s, v = 60 m/s

Plug these values into equation 5,

P = 120(60)²/2

P = 60(60)²

P = 60×3600

P = 216000 W.

Thus, the potential power generation of the water jet is 216000 W or 216 kW.

Justine is ice-skating at the Lloyd Center what is her final velocity if she accelerates at a rate of 2.0 meters per second for
Ostrovityanka [2204]

2*3.5 = 7m/s

You need to multiply the acceleration by the time (which must both be in seconds; if not, convert them to the same units).

A student solving a physics problem for the range of a projectile has obtained the expression r= v20sin(2θ)g where v0=37.2meter/
ValentinkaMS [2425]

The formula for range is:

R = \frac{v_o^2 sin2\theta}{g}

Given values are:

v_0=37.2m/s

where θ equals 14.1 degrees

g=9.80m/s^2

Using the equation above,

R = \frac{37.2^2 sin2*14.1}{9.80}

The calculated range is 66.7 meters.

Therefore, the range is approximately 66.1 meters.

A man is dragging a trunk up the loading ramp of a mover’s truck. The ramp has a slope angle of 20.0°, and the man pulls upward
Sav [2226]

Response:

(a) 104 N

(b) 52 N

Clarification:

Provided Information

Incline angle of the ramp: 20°

F forms a 30° angle with the ramp

The parallel component of F along the ramp is Fx = 90 N.

The perpendicular component of F is Fy.

(a)

Consider the +x direction pointing up the slope, and the +y direction perpendicular to the ramp's surface.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, decompose F into its x-component:

Fx=Fcos30°

To find F:

F= Fx/cos30°

Insert the value for Fx based on the given info:

Fx=90 N/cos30°

   =104 N

(b) Calculate the y-component of r using the Pythagorean theorem:

     Fy = Fsin 30°

Substituting for F from part (a):

     Fy = (104 N) (sin 30°)  

          = 52 N

The gas tank of Dave’s car has a capacity of 12 gallons. The tank was 38 full before Dave filled it to capacity. It cost him $2.
Sav [2226]

Answer:

$ 18.75

Explanation:

Given:

Dave's car has a capacity of 12 gallons.

If the tank is at 3/8 full prior to filling:

The cost of gasoline per gallon is $2.50.

The volume Dave needs to fill:

=1 - \dfrac{3}{8}

=\dfrac{5}{8} of full tank

=\dfrac{5}{8}\times 12

Dave must fill 7.5 gallons.

Total amount Dave will pay:

7.5 gallons x $2.50 =

$ 18.75

Thus, Dave will spend $ 18.75 to completely fill the tank.
