To unload a bound stack of plywood from a truck, the driver first tilts the bed of the truck and then accelerates from rest. Kno

wing that the coefficients of friction between the bottom sheet of plywood and the bed are fJK = 0.40 and fik = 0.30, determine (a) the smallest acceleration of the truck which will cause the stack of plywood to slide, (b) the acceleration of the truck which causes corner A of the stack of plywood to reach the end of the bed in 0.4 s.

Answer:

a) The truck must have an acceleration of at least 3.92 * cos(θ)^2 for the stack to start sliding.

b) a = 2.94 * cos(θ)^2 + 0.32 * L * cos(θ)

Explanation:

The stack of plywood has a certain mass. The weight will depend on that mass.

w = m * g

There will be a normal reaction between the stack and the bed of the truck, this will be:

nr = -m * g * cos(θ)

Being θ the tilt angle of the bed.

The static friction force will be:

ffs = - m * g * cos(θ) * fJK

The dynamic friction force will be:

ffd = - m * g * cos(θ) * fik

These forces would produce accelerations

affs = -g * cos(θ) * fJK

affd = -g * cos(θ) * fik

affs = -9.81 * cos(θ) * 0.4 = -3.92 * cos(θ)

affd = -9.81 * cos(θ) * 0.3 = -2.94 * cos(θ)

These accelerations oppose to movement and must be overcome by another acceleration to move the stack.

The acceleration of the truck is horizontal, the horizontal component of these friction forces is:

affs = -3.92 * cos(θ)^2

affd = -2.94 * cos(θ)^2

The truck must have an acceleration of at least 3.92 * cos(θ)^2 for the stack to start sliding.

Assuming the bed has a lenght L.

The horizontal movement will be over a distance cos(θ) * L because L is tilted.

Movement under constant acceleration:

X(t) = X0 + V0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

In this case X0 = 0, V0 = 0, and a will be the sum of the friction force minus the acceleration of the truck.

If we set the frame of reference with the origin on the initial position of the stack and the positive X axis pointing backwards, the acceleration of the truck will now be negative and the dynamic friction acceleration positive.

L * cos(θ) = 1/2 * (2.94 * cos(θ)^2 - a) * 0.4^2

2.94 * cos(θ)^2 - a = 2 * 0.16 * L * cos(θ)

a = 2.94 * cos(θ)^2 + 0.32 * L * cos(θ)

4. What are these parts commonly called?
patriot [66]

These parts are commonly called carburetor emulsion tubes. These tubes maintain the air-fuel ratio at different speeds.

The carburetor is a device of the combustion engine power supply system that mixes fuel and air in order to facilitate internal combustion.

The carburetor emulsion tubes are tubes that maintain the air-fuel ratio at different velocities.

These tubes (carburetor emulsion tubes) are small brass cylinders where the metering needle slides into them.

Do you think that individuals with the same disabilities have the same needs? If your answer is yes, how? /No, why?​
Blababa [14]

Disability is extremely diverse. While some health conditions associated with disability result in poor health and extensive health care needs, others do not. However, all people with disability have the same general health care needs as everyone else, and therefore need access to mainstream health care services.

Does the Diesel engine have engine knock or detonation problem? Why?
Luda [366]

Explanation:

Yes Diesel engine have problem of knocking.

We know that knocking is phenomenon in which suddenly large amount of power generates this large amount of power will cause the failure of diesel engine.

Actually when one set of fuel inject inside the cylinder to burn with already compressed air (in general up to 10-15 bar) then this fuel does not burn complete and accumulate inside the cylinder.After that second set of fuel inject inside the cylinder then that one set of fuel burns with second set of fuel and produces large amount of sudden power for engine and causes the breaks in the crank or connecting rod of engine.it leads to damage the engine.

a) A total charge Q = 23.6 μC is deposited uniformly on the surface of a hollow sphere with radius R = 26.1 cm. Use ε0 = 8.85419
dusya [7]

Answer:

(a) E = 0 N/C

(b) E = 0 N/C

(c) E = 7.78 x10^5 N/C

Explanation:

We are given a hollow sphere with following parameters:

Q = total charge on its surface = 23.6 μC = 23.6 x 10^-6 C

R = radius of sphere = 26.1 cm = 0.261 m

Permittivity of free space = ε0 = 8.85419 X 10−12 C²/Nm²

The formula for the electric field intensity is:

E = (1/4πεo)(Q/r²)

where, r = the distance from center of sphere where the intensity is to be found.

(a)

At the center of the sphere r = 0. Also, there is no charge inside the sphere to produce an electric field. Thus the electric field at center is zero.

<u>E = 0 N/C</u>

(b)

Since, the distance R/2 from center lies inside the sphere. Therefore, the intensity at that point will be zero, due to absence of charge inside the sphere (q = 0 C).

<u>E = 0 N/C</u>

(c)

Since, the distance of 52.2 cm is outside the circle. So, now we use the formula to calculate the Electric Field:

E = (1/4πεo)[(23.6 x 10^-6 C)/(0.522m)²]

<u>E = 7.78 x10^5 N/C</u>
