Answer:
W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L, W = -μ mg cos θ L
Explanation:
Let's use Newton's second law to find the friction force. In these problems the x axis is taken parallel to the plane and the y axis perpendicular to the plane
Y Axis
N - =
N = W_{y}
X axis
F1 - fr - Wₓ = 0
fr = F1 - Wₓ
Let's use trigonometry to find the components of the weight
sin θ = Wₓ / W
cos θ = W_{y} / W
Wₓ = W sin θ
W_{y} = W cos θ
We substitute
fr = F1 - W sin θ
Work is defined by
W = F .dx
W = F dx cos θ
The friction force is parallel to the plane in the negative direction and the displacement is positive along the plane, so the Angle is 180º and the cos θ= -1
W = -fr x
W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L
Another way to calculate is
fr = μ N
fr = μ W cos θ
the work is
W = -μ mg cos θ L
Answer:
Mass of the sled in the snow 83.33 kg.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Given that,
Force applied to move the sled in the snow (F) = 75N
We know that
Newton's second law of motion is
F = ma (Or "force" is equal to "mass" times "acceleration".)
So if we move this around we can isolate mass and get mass
M = 83.33 kg
Mass of the sled in the snow <u>83.33 kg.</u>
