Answer:

  The net force on the block  F(net)  = mgsinθ).

   Fw =mg(cosθ)(sinθ)

Explanation:

(a)

Here, m is the mass of the block, n is the normal force, \thetaθ is the wedge angle, and Fw  is the force exerted by the wall on the wedge.

Since the block sliding down, the net force on the block is along the plane of the wedge that is equal to horizontal component of weight of the block.

                    F(net)  = mgsinθ

The net force on the block  F(net)  = mgsinθ).

The direction of motion of the block is along the direction of net force acting on the block. Since there is no frictional force between the wedge and block, the only force acting on the block along the direction of motion is mgsinθ.

(b)

From the free body diagram, the normal force n is equal to mgcosθ .

                           n=mgcosθ

The horizontal component of normal force on the block is equal to force

                           Fw=n*sin(θ) that exerted by the wall on the wedge.

Substitute mgcosθ for n in the above equation;

                           Fw =mg(cosθ)(sinθ)

Since, there is no friction between the wedge and the wall, there is component force acting on the wall to restrict the motion of the wedge on the surface and that force is arises from the horizontal component for normal force on the block.

A rope is tied to a box and used to pull the box 2.3 m along a horizontal floor. The rope makes an angle of 30∘ with the horizon
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

A) The work done by gravity is zero because displacement and the gravitational force are perpendicular to each other.

W= FS cosθ

θ= 90 ⇒cos90 = 0 ⇒W= 0

B) work done by tension

W= Tcosθ×S= 5cos30×2.30= 10J

C) Work done by friction force

W= f×s=1×2.30= 2.30 J

D) Work done by normal force is Zero because the displacement and the normal force are perpendicular to each other.

E) The net work done= Work done by tension in the rope - frictional work

=10-2.30= 7.7 J

Please answer ASAP .
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = gsinθ

a = 9.8sin30

a = 4.9 m/s²

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0² + 2(4.9)(10)

v² = 98

v = √98 = 9.8994949...

v = 9.9 m/s

A 26.4 g silver ring (cp = 234 J/kg·°C) is heated to a temperature of 66.2°C and then placed in a calorimeter containing 4.94 ✕
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by the silver ring = heat gained by the water + heat transferred to the surrounding.

c₁m₁(t₁-t₃) = c₂m₂(t₃-t₂) + Q..............Equation 1

Where c₁ = specific heat capacity of the silver copper, m₁ = mass of the silver copper, t₁ = initial temperature of the silver copper, t₃ = final temperature of the mixture. c₂ = specific heat capacity of water, t₂ = initial temperature of water, m₂ = mass of water, Q = energy transferred to the surrounding.

making t₃ the subject of the equation,

t₃ = [c₁m₁t₁+c₂m₂t₂-Q]/(c₁m₁+c₂m₂)........................ Equation 2

Given: c₁ = 234 J/kg.°C, m₁ = 26.4 g, t₁ = 66.2 °C, c₂ = 4200 J/K.°C, m₂ = 4.92×10⁻² kg, t₂ = 24.0 °C, Q = 0.136 J.

Substituting into equation 2

t₃ = [(234×26.4×66.2)+(4200×0.0492×24)-0.136]/[(234×26.4)+(4200×0.0492)]

t₃ = (408957.12+4959.36-0.136)/(6177.6+206.64)

t₃ = (413916.48-0.136)/6384.24

t₃ = 413916.34/6384.24

Thus the final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.
