Answer:
11.625
Explanation:
L = length of the ladder = 16 ft
= rate at which top of ladder slides down = - 3 ft/s
= rate at which bottom of ladder slides
y = distance of the top of ladder from the ground
x = distance of bottom of ladder from wall = 4 ft
Using Pythagorean theorem
L² = x² + y²
16² = 4² + y²
y = 15.5 ft
Also using Pythagorean theorem
L² = x² + y²
Taking derivative both side relative to "t"



= 11.625 ft/s
Answer:
V= 6.974 m/s
Explanation:
Component( box) weight acting parallel and down roof 88(sin39.0°)=55.4 N
Force of kinetic friction acting parallel and up roof = 18.0 N
Fnet force acting on tool box acting parallel and down roof
Fnet= 55.4 - 18.0
Fnet=37.4 N
acceleration of tool box down roof
a = 37.4(9.81)/88.0
a= 4.169 m/s²
d = 4.90 m
t = √2d/a
t= √2(4.90)/4.169
t= 1.662 s
V = at
V= 4.169(1.662)
V= 6.974 m/s
Let's use Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (68 kg) x (1.2 m/s²) = 81.6 newtons .
Kinetic energy = 1/2 × m × v^2
16 = 1/2 × m × 2^2
16 = 1/2 × m × 4
16 = 2 × m
16/2 = m
8 = m
so the mass is 8 kg
