Jake is helping Fin push a box at a constant velocity up an incline that makes an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal by applyin

g a 94.0N force in line with the incline over 2.30m. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the incline is 0.280, a) what is the work done by the pushing force, in Joules? b) What is the mass of the box, in kilograms?

Given data

The angle of inclination of the plane is theta = 30 degree

The applied force in the inclined plane is F = 94 N

The distance moved in the inclined plane is d = 2.30 m

The coefficient of kinetic friction is u_k = 0.280

The free-body diagram of the above configuration is shown below:

Here, the normal reaction force on the box is N, the acceleration due to gravity is denoted as g, the friction force on the box is F_f, and the mass of the box is denoted as m.

(a)

The expression for the work done by the pushing force is given as:

W=Fd

Substitute the value in the above equation.

\begin{gathered} W=94\text{ N}\times2.30\text{ m} \\ W=216.2\text{ J} \end{gathered}

Thus, the work done by the pushing force is 216.2 J.

(b)

The box is moving at the constant velocity, therefore, the pushing force will be equal to the frictional force and the component of the gravitational force in the inclined plane.

\begin{gathered} F=F_f+mg\sin \theta \\ F=\mu_kN+mg\sin \theta \end{gathered}

The expression for the normal reaction force is given as:

N=mg\cos \theta

The expression for the mass of the box is given as:

\begin{gathered} F=\mu_k\times mg\cos \theta+mg\sin \theta \\ m=\frac{F}{\mu_kg\cos \theta+g\sin \theta} \end{gathered}

Substitute the value in the above equation.

\begin{gathered} m=\frac{94\text{ N}}{0.28\times9.8m/s^2\times\cos 30^o+9.8m/s^2\times\sin 30^0} \\ m=12.9\text{ kg} \end{gathered}

Thus, the mass of the box is 12.9 kg.

Which electromagnetic wave would have a wavelength approximately the size of the tip of a pencil?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

That's simply because any electromagnetic wave longer than a microwave is called a radio wave. Microwaves: Obviously used for cooking in microwave ovens, but also for transmitting information in radar equipment. Microwaves are like short-wavelength radio waves. Typical size: 15cm (the length of a pencil).

Consider a block on a spring oscillating on a frictionless surface. The amplitude of the oscillation is 11 cm, and the speed of
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The angular frequency of the block is ω = 5.64 rad/s

Explanation:

The speed of the block v = rω where r = amplitude of the oscillation and ω = angular frequency of the oscillation.

Now ω = v/r since v = speed of the block = 62 cm/s and r = the amplitude of the oscillation = 11 cm.

The angular frequency of the oscillation ω is

ω = v/r

ω = 62 cm/s ÷ 11 cm

ω = 5.64 rad/s

So, the angular frequency of the block is ω = 5.64 rad/s
