The coefficient of static friction for both wedge surfaces is μw=0.4 and that between the 27-kg concrete block and the β=20° inc

line is μg=0.7.
If the wedge has an angle of 5° determine the minimum value of the force P2, parallel to the fixed surface on the left, required to begin moving the block up the incline.

Assuming  the wedge has an angle of 5°.The minimum value of the force P that is required to begin moving the block up the incline is: 322.84 N.

<h3>Minimum value of force P</h3>

First step

Using this formula to find the weight of the block

W=mg

W=27×9.81

W=264.87 N

Second step

Angles of friction ∅A and ∅B

∅A=tan^-1(μA)

∅A=tan^-1(0.70)

∅A=34.99°

∅B=tan^-1(μB)

∅B=tan^-1(0.40)

∅B=21.80°

Third step

Equate the sum of forces in m-direction to 0 in order to find the reaction force at B.

∑fm=0

W sin (∅A+20°)  + RB cos (∅B+∅A)=0

264.87 sin(34.99°+20°) + RB cos (21.80°+34.99°)=0

216.94+0.5477Rb=0

RB=216.94/0.5477

RB=396.09 N

Fourth step

Equate the sum of forces in x-direction to 0 in order to find force Rc.

∑fx=0

RB cos (∅B) - RC cos (∅B+ 5°)=0

396.09 cos(21.80°) - RC cos (21.80°+5°)=0

RC=396.09 cos(21.80°)/cos(26.80°)

RC=412.02 N

Last step

Equate the sum of forces in y-direction to 0 in order to find force P required to move the block up the incline.

∑fy=0

RB sin (∅B) + RC sin (∅B)-P=0

P=Rb sin (∅B) + RC sin (5°+∅B)

P=396.09 sin(21.80°) +412.02sin (5°+21.80°)

P=322.84 N

Inconclusion the minimum value of the force P that is required to begin moving the block up the incline is: 322.84 N.

La iluminación de la superficie de un patio amplio es 1600 lx cuando el ángulo de elevación del sol 53°. Calcular la iluminación
gregori [183]

Answer:

 I = 1205.69 Lx

Explanation:

The irradiation or intensity of the solar radiation on the earth is maximum for the vertical fire, with a value I₀

          I = I₀ sin θ

in this case with the initial data we can calculate the initial irradiance

         I₀ = \frac{I}{sin  \ \theta }

         I₀ = 1600 /sin 53

         I₀ = 2003.42 lx

for when the angle is θ = 37º

         I = 2003.42 sin 37

         I = 1205.69 Lx

Do the coil resistances have any effect on the plots?
PolarNik [594]
Because of the skin depth effect, the current at high frequency tends to flow at very low depth from radius. Then at high frequency the effective cross section of the wire is narrower than at DC.

Fro example skin depth at 100 kHz is 0.206 mm (0.008”), a wire more thicker than AWG26 could be a waste of copper, better use a bunch of thin wire (Litz wire) to rise the Q factor.
