The box accelerates down the incline at 2.4m/s^2.

<h3>How do you find the acceleration of an incline box?</h3>

A mass m particle will slide down a smooth inclined plane if it is released onto it with a friction force F=0. We resolve in the direction of motion to determine the particle's acceleration as it slides. F = ma, mg cos(90) = ma, gg cos(90) = a, gg sin() = a.

By using zigmaFx = max, we will determine the acceleration.

However, we must first determine the friction force Ff.

Because cos 30 degree = 0.866 and Fy = ma y = 0 result in FN - 0.87mg = 0, we may calculate FN as (0.87)(20Kg)(9.81 m/s2) = 171N.

From Ff = mue FN = 0.30)(171 N)= 51N, we can now calculate Ff.

We get Ff - 0.50mg = ma x 51N - (0.50)(20)(9.81)N = (20kg)(ax) from the expression zigmaFx = max, where ax = -2.35 m/s2.

At 2.4 m/s2, the box quickens its descent of the hill.

A car is 200 m from a stop sign and traveling toward the sign at 40.0 m/s. At this time, the driver suddenly realizes that she m
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

4.17 m/s²

Explanation:

We are told the reaction time is 0.2 s. Now, during this reaction time the car is going to travel an additional distance of : x = u × t = 40 × 0.2 = 8 m

where u is the initial velocity of the car which is 40.0 m/s.

We are told that he had 200 m to stop before applying brakes. Thus, after applying brakes, he now has a distance to cover of; s = 200 - 8 = 192 m

Since vehicle is coming to rest acceleration would be negative, thus using Newton's equation of motion, we have;

v ² = u² - 2as

v = 0 m/s since it's coming to rest

u = 40 m/s

s = 192 m

Thus;

0² = 40² - 2(a)(192)

0² = 1600 - 384a

a = 1600/384

a = 4.17 m/s²

Define the reflection with diagram​
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The incident light ray which lands upon the surface is said to be reflected off the surface. The ray that bounces back is called the reflected ray. If a perpendicular were to be drawn on reflecting surface, it would be called normal. The figure below shows the reflection of an incident beam on a plane mirror.
