The box slides down the wall unless an external force of magnitude 23 N is applied on it. The object is directed upward with an angle of 27° above the horizontal surface. Therefore, the mass of block is 1.90 kg

<h3>What is friction?</h3>

A friction is a kind of force which resists the sliding or rolling of objects over the surface of each other.

Applied force, F = 23 N

Coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.40

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μs = 0.30

θ = 27°

Let 'N' be the normal reaction of the wall acting on the block and 'm' be the mass of block.

Resolve the components of force 'F'

As the block is in horizontal equilibrium with the wall.

So,

F Cos27° = N

N = 23 Cos27° = 20.495 N

As the block does not slide so it means that the static friction force acting on the block balances the downwards forces (gravity) acting on the block.

The force of static friction is:

μs x N = 0.4 x 20.495 = 8.19 N   .... (1)

The vertically downward force acting on the block is (mg - F Sin27°)

mg - 23 Sin 27° = mg - 10.441    ... (2)

Now by equating the forces from equation (1) and (2), we get

mg - 10.441 = 8.19

mg = 18.631

m x 9.8 = 18.631

m = 1.90 kg

Thus, the mass of block is 1.90 kg.

Your question is incomplete, most probably the complete question is:

The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the box and wall are 0.40 and 0.30, respectively. The box slides down unless the applied force has magnitude 23 N. What is the mass of the box in kilograms?

a body dropped from a height reaches a velocity of 13m/s just before touching the ground. What is the initial height of the ball
SashulF [63]

Hi there!

We can use the following (derived) equation to solve for the final velocity given height:

vf = √2gh

We can rearrange to solve for height:

vf² = 2gh

vf²/2g = h

Plug in the given values (g = 9.81 m/s²)

(13)²/2(9.81) = 8.614 m

We can calculate time using the equation:

vf = vi + at, where:

vi = initial velocity (since dropped from rest, = 0 m/s)

a = acceleration (in this instance, due to gravity)

Plug in values:

13 = at

13/a = t

13/9.81 = 1.325 sec

A car traveling at 23m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 7 seconds. What is the acceleration?
Lena [83]

The car has an initial velocity v_0 of 23 m/s and a final velocity v of 0 m/s. Recall that for constant acceleration,

v=v_0+at

The car stops in 7 s, so the acceleration is

0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=23\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+a(7\,\mathrm s)

\implies a\approx-3.29\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

What creates an ionic bond?
natta225 [31]
Ionic bonding is the bonding between a positive metal with a negative nonmetal (metals are always positive while non metals are opposite). The meeting of a metal with a non metal creates an ionic bond.
