Answer:
a) 0.64 b) 2.17m/s^2 c) 8.668joules
Explanation:
The block was on the ramp, the ramp was inclined at 20degree. A force of 5N was acting horizontal to the but not parallel to the ramp,
Frictional force = horizontal component of the weight of the block along the ramp + the applied force since the block was just about move
Frictional force = mgsin20o + 5N = 6.71+5N = 11.71
The force of normal = the vertical component of the weight of the block =mgcos20o = 18.44
Coefficient of static friction = 11.71/18.44= 0.64
Remember that g = acceleration due to gravity (9.81m/s^2) and m = mass (2kg)
b) coefficient of kinetic friction = frictional force/ normal force
Fr = 0.4* mgcos 20o = 7.375N
F due to motion = ma = total force - frictional force
Ma = 11.71 - 7.375 = 4.335
a= 4.335/2(mass of the block) = 2.17m/s^2
C) work done = net force *distance = 4.335*2= 8.67Joules
Answer:
Explanation:
If a car is moving to the left with constant velocity, one can conclude that
there must be no forces applied to the car . The net force applied to the car is zero.
Since there is no acceleration ,no net force is applied , hence no force acts on the car.
