An object with mass m = 34 kg is pushed with 452 N of force to be moved across a distance of 4.6 m on a surface with friction. Initially the object is moving at vi = 0.82 m/s and after being moved across 4.6 m, the final speed is 2.5 m/s. What is the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the object in the unit of N?
The maximum ('terminal') velocity, vt, that a falling object achieves depends on its mass m, the acceleration g due to gravity, the density p of the air, the object's frontal area A, and the object's drag coefficient C, which is a dimensionless quantity. The equation for the terminal velocity is: 2mg V = pCA Part (a): A skydiver jumps out of an airplane (regrettably) without his parachute. To slow his descent, he orients himself in a 'spread eagle' position, thereby increasing his area A to 0.70 m?. His drag coefficient Cis 1.0, which is a unitless quantity. Calculate his terminal velocity in m/s if his mass is 85 kg, the air density p is 1.21 kg/m3, and the constant g is 9.80 m/s?. Show your work, and ensure that each numeric value has the appropriate units. Your answer should be rounded to the appropriate number of significant digits. Part (b): Convert the answer from part (a) to miles per hour using the dimensional analysis method we reviewed in class. Show your work, and ensure…
A spring-loaded device imparts an initial vertical velocity of 57 m/s to a 0.5-kg ball. The drag force on the ball is FD = 0.002v2, where Fp is in newtons when the speed v is in meters per second. Determine the maximum altitude h attained by the ball in meters considering the drag force. Use g = 9.81 m/s?
A ski that is placed on snow will stick to the snow. However, when the ski is moved along the snow, the rubbing warms and partially melts the snow, reducing the coefficient of kinetic friction and promoting sliding. Waxing the ski makes it water repellent and reduces friction with the resulting layer of water. A magazine reports that a new type of plastic ski is especially water repellent and that, on a gentle 210 m slope in the Alps, a skier reduced his top-to-bottom time from 61.0 s with standard skis to 43.0 s with the new skis. Determine the magnitude of his average acceleration with (a) the standard skis and (b) the new skis. Assuming a 3.40° slope, compute the coefficient of kinetic friction for (c) the standard skis and (d) the new skis.
