A 20.0 kg trunk is pushed across the floor of a moving van by a horizontal force. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the trunk and the floor is 0.255, what is the magnitude of the frictional force opposing the applied force?

Answers

Answer 1

The magnitude of the frictional force opposing the applied force is 50 N.

What is the frictional force?

The friction is caused due to the relative motion between two uneven contacting surfaces.

Given is the mass of trunk m = 20kg, kinetic coefficient of friction μ = 0.255.

The normal force acting on the trunk N = mg

N = 20 kg x 9.81m /s²

N = 196.2 Newton

The friction force is

f =μN

f = 0.255 x 196.2

f =50.031 N

Thus, the  magnitude of the frictional force opposing the applied force is approximately 50N.

What is inelastic collision?

When two moving bodies after colliding stick to each other and move together is called the inelastic collision.

In inelastic collision , momentum is remains conserved.

Initial momentum =Final momentum

m₁u₁ +m₂u₂ = (m₁ +m₂ )v

where, u₁ and u₂ represents initial velocities of two hockey players and v₁ and v₂ shows the final velocities.

m₁ =m₂ =m and u₁ = u₂ =u

Substitute the values from the question, we get

2mu = 2mv

u =v

u = v x cos (θ/2)

u = 6.15 cos(90/2)

u = v = 4.35 m/s

Light does not pass through some materials. What do you think happens
to the energy of photons when photons strike a surface and are
absorbed? What indicators would tell you that the energy of the photons

has been transformed?

Answers

Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon)

A photon is a quantum of EM radiation. Its energy is given by E = hf and is related to the frequency f and wavelength λ of the radiation by. E=hf=hcλ(energy of a photon) E = h f = h c λ (energy of a photon) , where E is the energy of a single photon and c is the speed of light.

Which formula represents Snell's law?

Answers

Answer:

Snell's Law:    N1 sin θ1 = N2 sin θ2

n1 sine1 = n2 sin 82 fits this description

The formula that represents Snell's law is n₁sinθ₁ = n₂sinθ₂. Thus, the correct solution is option B.

What is Snell's law?

When light rays from one medium enter into another medium (rarer to denser medium), the speed of light rays is decreased when light rays enter from rarer to denser medium. This is called as refraction of light rays.

The laws of refraction give Snell's law. The ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence and the ratio of the sine of the angle of refraction is equal to constant (μ) is called Snell's law.

The Snells law, sin i / sin r = μ, where i is the angle of incidence and r is the angle of refraction. μ is the refractive index of the medium. The refractive index remains constant for the medium.

From the given,

Snell's law is written as, sin i / sin r = n₁/n₂, where n₁ and n₂ is the refractive index of the medium. Thus, n₁sin(i) = n₂sin(r).

Thus, the ideal solution is option B.

An elevator is moving with an acceleration of 2.5 m/s. Find the tension in the cables if the total mass of a man and elevator is 80kg. When;
a) Moving up
b) Moving down​

Answers

The tension in the cables are :  a) 984 N when moving up,

b) 584 N when movng down

Given data:

mass = 80 kg

Acceleration = 2.5 m/s

Determine the tension in the cables

A) When moving up

Tension in the cable = m*g + m*a

                                  = 80 * 9.8 + 80 * 2.5

                                  =  984 N

B) When moving down

Tension in the cable = m*g - m*a

                                  = 80 * 9.8 - 80 * 2.5

                                  = 584 N

Hence we can conclude that the tension in the cable are 984 N moving up and 584 moving down.

A coil with 50 turns of wire is wrapped around a hollow tube with an area of 3.6 m2. Each turn has the same area as the tube. A uniform magnetic field is applied at a right angle to the plane of the coil. If the field increases uniformly from 0.00 T to 0.88 T in 1.85 s, find the magnitude of the induced emf in the coil. If the resistance in the coil is 5.0 Ω, find the magnitude of the induced current in the coil.

Answers

Hi there!

Using Faraday's and Lenz's Law:
[tex]\epsilon = -N\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt}[/tex]

ε = Induced emf (V)

N = number of loops/turns
Φ = Magnetic flux (Wb)

Magnetic flux is given as:
[tex]\Phi_B = \oint B \cdot dA = B\cdot A[/tex]
Since the area of the loops remains constant, we can take area out of the time derivative. Thus:
[tex]\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt} = A * \frac{dB}{dt} = A * \frac{\Delta B}{\Delta t}[/tex]

Also, since the magnetic field is applied at a right angle to the plane of the coil, that means that the field is PARALLEL to the area vector of the plane of the coil. (points normal to the surface). This means we can disregard the dot product since cos(180) = 1.

Plug in the given values.

[tex]\epsilon = - 50 * 3.6 * \frac{0.88 - 0}{1.85} = -85.622 V[/tex]

The negative sign simply means that the induced emf is in the opposite direction in order to oppose the increase in magnetic flux, so the magnitude is simply:

[tex]\epsilon = \boxed{85.622 V}[/tex]

For the current, we can use Ohm's Law:
[tex]i = \frac{\epsilon}{R}\\\\i = \frac{85.622}{5} = \boxed{17.124 A}[/tex]

An object has moved through a distance. Can it have zero displacement? Justify your answer.PLEASE I WILL MARKK AS BRAINLIESTT

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

yes object can move through a distance  and can have zero displacement  

as displacement is the shortest distance between two points eg: if a person has moved a distance of 20 m and comes back to his original place by moving back 20m in such a case  distance moved by the person is 40m but his displacement is 0 as shortest distance covered by him is 0 as he is in his original place

Yes, it is possible for a body to have traveled a distance yet have a displacement of zero.

Distance traveled by a body is the length of the path covered by it.

On the other hand displacement of a body is the shortest distance between the initial and the final point of a body.

When a body is traveling such that it ends at the point from where it started its journey, it covers a distance but the displacement of the body is zero.

So a body that has moved through a distance can have zero displacement.

From the Gauss law, it is stated that the field inside the conductor is zero. Charge will lie only on the surface.

For question one it’s Hydrogen and Oxygen!
For the second question , it’s colour change since the temperature increases

For the first one the general idea is that Hydrogen molecules violently react with oxygen when the existing molecular bonds break and new bonds are formed between oxygen and hydrogen atoms. As the products of the reaction are at a lower energy level than the reactants, the result is an explosive release of energy and the production of water

Second one is harder to remember but, changes of state (colour) are physical changes whereas the other changes are purely chemical
