A man pushes on a piano with mass 190 kgkg ; it slides at constant velocity down a ramp that is inclined at 18.0 ∘∘ above the ho

rizontal floor. Neglect any friction acting on the piano.Calculate the magnitude of the force applied by the man if he pushes
(a) parallel to the incline and
(b) parallel to the floor.

Answer:

The magnitude of applied force,parallel to the incline is 575.38 N and parallel to the floor is 605 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the piano (m) = 190 kg

Inclined angle (\theta) = 18 degree

Considering gravity, g = 9.8 ms^-^2

And

Using, sin(18) =0.30 and cos(18)=0.95

<em>FBD diagram is attached with all the force acting on the floor and and the inclined. </em>

We have to find the magnitude of forces,when the man pushes it parallel to the incline and to the floor.

a.

When the man pushes it parallel to the incline.

Balancing the forces as  \sum F=0 .

⇒ F+mgsin(\theta) =0

⇒ F=-mgsin(\theta)

⇒ Here it is negative as the force is acting downward.

⇒ Plugging the values of mass (m) and angle (\theta) .

⇒ F=190\times 9.8\times sin(18)

⇒ F=575.38 N

b.

When the force is parallel to the floor.

⇒ Fcos(\theta)=mgsin(\theta)

⇒ F=\frac{mgsin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ F=\frac{190\times 9.8\times sin(18)}{cos(18)}

⇒ F=605 N

So,

The magnitude of applied force in inclined direction is 575.38 Newton and parallel to the floor is 605 N.

If Earth had twice the mass it has now, how would the gravitational force between it and the Sun change?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

a)The gravitational force would be twice as much as it is now

Explanation:

If the earth had twice its mass as it is now, the gravitational force between the sun and the earth would be twice as much as it is now.

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation "the gravitational force of attraction between bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them".

       F_{g}   = \frac{G m _{e} m _{s}  }{r^{2} }

G is the universal gravitation constant

m is the mass

r is the distance

let mass of sun  = s

     mass of earth  = e

 new mass of sun  = s

 new mass of sun  = 2e

input variables;

    F  = \frac{Gx e x s}{r^{2} }    ------ i

   F = \frac{G  x s x 2e}{r^{2} }    ------- ii

From the second equation;

      2F  = \frac{Gx e x s}{r^{2} }

      2F  = F

Therefore, the force will double.

The Power Rocket coaster track is 3,265 feet and the ride is 90 seconds long. What is the speed of the coaster in feet per secon
jeyben [28]
Not sure if you're in FLVS or not but, the answer should be 36. I'm doing the same assignment. Pretty sure all you have to do is divide 3,265 and 90. Hope I could help you out.
