A wedge with an inclination of angle θ rests next to a wall. A block of mass m is sliding down the plane. There is no friction b

etween the wedge and the block or between the wedge and the horizontal surface.
Find the magnitude, Fnet, of the sum of all forces acting on the block.
Express Fnet in terms of θ and m, along with any necessary constants.
Find the magnitude, Fww, of the force that the wall exerts on the wedge.

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.

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 11 mL</h3>

Explanation:

To find the volume of the object we use the formula

volume of object = final volume of water - initial volume of water

From the question

final volume of water = 86 mL

initial volume of water = 75 mL

So we have

volume of object = 86 - 75

We have the final answer as

<h3>11 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

Calculate the change in internal energy of the following system: A balloon is cooled by removing 0.659 kJ of heat. It shrinks on
bixtya [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

-310J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system is the sum of the heat (Q) and work (W) done on or by the system. i.e

ΔE = Q + W       ----------------------(i)

If heat is released by the system, Q is negative. Else it is positive.

If work is done on the system, W is positive. Else it is negative.

<em>In this case, the system is the balloon and;</em>

Q = -0.659kJ = -695J    [Q is negative because heat is removed from the system(balloon)]

W = +385J  [W is positive because work is done on the system (balloon)]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

ΔE = -695 + 385

ΔE = -310J

Therefore, the change in internal energy is -310J

<em>PS: The negative value indicates that the system(balloon) has lost energy to its surrounding, thereby making the process exothermic.</em>
