The crate, which sets on a 10 degree incline, has a weight of 3433.5 N and is subjected to a towing force P acting at a 20 degre

e angle with the horizontal. If the coefficient of static friction is µs = 0.5, determine the force P needed to just start the crate moving down the plane.

Answer:

P = 981 N

Explanation:

Given

Angle of the incline θ = 10°

Angle of the towing force φ =20°

Weight of the crate W = 3433.5 N

The coefficient of static friction µ = 0.5

Solution

Forces Acting along the ramp

$\mu N = Pcos(10^{o}+10^{o})+Wsin10^{0} \\\mu N = Pcos30^{o}+Wsin10^{0}$

Forces acting perpendicular to the ramp

$N + Psin30^{o}=Wcos10^{0}\\\\N=Wcos10^{0}-Psin30^{o}\\$

Substituting the value of N we get

$\mu[Wcos10^{0}-Psin30^{o}] =Pcos30^{o}+Wsin10^{0}\\\\\mu Wcos10^{0}- \mu Psin30^{o} =Pcos30^{o}+Wsin10^{0}\\\\\mu Wcos10^{0}- Wsin10^{0}=Pcos30^{o}+\mu Psin30^{o} \\\\P=W\frac{\mu cos10^{0}- sin10^{0}}{cos30^{o}+\mu sin30^{o}} \\\\P=3433.5\frac{0.5 \times cos10^{0}- sin10^{0}}{cos30^{o}+0.5 \times sin30^{o}}\\\\P=980.66\\\\ P = 981 N$

Would time travel ever be possible? If so how and through what extensive process would it might be possible.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

There are two ways we may, one day, be able to time travel forwards.

You may have heard of Cryogenics. This is when someone who’s died is frozen instead of being buried or cremated. The theory is they can be “woken up” in the future when we have the technology to bring them back to life. Or a machine or device could be developed so that some people age more slowly than others around them. This way they’d live longer and see a future beyond the average person’s life span.

Another very different way of travelling into the future is more like what you’d see in science fiction. This is might involve travelling in a rocket or spaceship at a very high speed, close to the speed of light. “We can’t establish equality with the speed of light but it is possible, in theory, to travel nearly as fast as the speed of light,” adds Dr Steane.

So imagine you’re in a spaceship travelling very fast away from the Earth and you stay in orbit for a year. You would age at the same rate as if you were still on the Earth, by a year, but when you returned, the earth may have aged hundreds of years. “This is way beyond the technology we have at the moment,” he says. “But... in theory, it is possible.”

After a surface interval my pressure group is D. I want to do a repetitive dive to 38 feet for 32 minutes. What will be my new p

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

New pressure group is N

Explanation:

The Repetitive Dive table has to be checked, the residual nitrogen for the maximum depth of 38 feet as a "D" diver, then add that to the actual dive time to get the total nitrogen time. The total nitrogen time and the maximum depth of 38 feet would put you on a pressure group N.

A wall, acted upon by a force of 20 N, does not move. The work done on the wall in this process is

prisoha [69]

0J

Explanation:

A wall that is acted upon by a force of 20N does not move suggests that no work has been done on the wall.

Work done is the force applied to move in the direction of the applied force.

Work done = force x distance.

Since the distance is 0, the work done on the body too is zero.

Work is only done when forces moves a body through a given distance.

In a flying ski jump, the skier acquires a speed of 110 km/h by racing down a steep hill and then lifts off into the air from a

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Approximately $\displaystyle\rm \left[ \begin{array}{c}\rm191\; m\\\rm-191\; m\end{array}\right]$ .

Explanation:

Consider this $45^{\circ}$ slope and the trajectory of the skier in a cartesian plane. Since the problem is asking for the displacement vector relative to the point of "lift off", let that particular point be the origin $(0, 0)$ .

Assume that the skier is running in the positive x-direction. The line that represents the slope shall point downwards at $45^{\circ}$ to the x-axis. Since this slope is connected to the ramp, it should also go through the origin. Based on these conditions, this line should be represented as $y = -x$ .

Convert the initial speed of this diver to SI units:

$\displaystyle v = \rm 110\; km\cdot h^{-1} = 110 \times \frac{1}{3.6} = 30.556\; m\cdot s^{-1}$ .

The question assumes that the skier is in a free-fall motion. In other words, the skier travels with a constant horizontal velocity and accelerates downwards at $g$ ( $g \approx \rm -9.81\; m\cdot s^{-2}$ near the surface of the earth.) At $t$ seconds after the skier goes beyond the edge of the ramp, the position of the skier will be:

$x$ -coordinate: $30.556t$ meters (constant velocity;)
$y$ -coordinate: $\displaystyle -\frac{1}{2}g\cdot t^{2} = -\frac{9.81}{2}\cdot t^{2}$ meters (constant acceleration with an initial vertical velocity of zero.)

To eliminate $t$ from this expression, solve the equation between $t$ and $x$ for $t$ . That is: express $t$ as a function of $x$ .

$x = 30.556\;t\implies \displaystyle t = \frac{x}{30.556}$ .

Replace the $t$ in the equation of $y$ with this expression:

$\begin{aligned} y = &-\frac{9.81}{2}\cdot t^{2}\\ &= -\frac{9.81}{2} \cdot \left(\frac{x}{30.556}\right)^{2}\\&= -0.0052535\;x^{2}\end{aligned}$ .

Plot the two functions:

$y = -x$ ,
$\displaystyle y= -0.0052535\;x^{2}$ ,

and look for their intersection. Refer to the diagram attached.

Alternatively, equate the two expressions of $y$ (right-hand side of the equation, the part where $y$ is expressed as a function of $x$ .)

$-0.0052535\;x^{2} = -x$ ,

$\implies x = 190.35$ .

The value of $y$ can be found by evaluating either equation at this particular $x$ -value: $x = 190.35$ .

$y = -190.35$ .

The position vector of a point $(x, y)$ on a cartesian plane is $\displaystyle \left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$ . The coordinates of this skier is approximately $(190.35, -190.35)$ . The position vector of this skier will be $\displaystyle\rm \left[ \begin{array}{c}\rm191\\\rm-191\end{array}\right]$ . Keep in mind that both numbers in this vectors are in meters.
