The mass on the left has a downslope weight of  

W1 = 3.5kg * 9.8m/s² * sin35º = 19.7 N  

The mass on the right has a downslope weight of  

W2 = 8kg * 9.8m/s² * sin35º = 45.0 N  

The net is 25.3 N pulling downslope to the right.  

(a) Therefore we need 25.3 N of friction force.  

Ff = 25.3 N = µ(m1 + m2)gcosΘ = µ * 11.5kg * 9.8m/s² * cos35º  

25.3N = µ * 92.3 N  

µ = 0.274  

(b) total mass is 11.5 kg, and the net force is 25.3 N, so  

acceleration a = F / m = 25.3N / 11.5kg = 2.2 m/s²  

tension T = 8kg * (9.8sin35 - 2.2)m/s² = 27 N  

Check: T = 3.5kg * (9.8sin35 + 2.2)m/s² = 27 N √

hope this helps.   :)

Is the 3 in the molecule a coefficient, subscript, or element? 3H₂O₂

Let's look at the 3 possibilities and see what they are for </span>3H₂O₂ coefficient - This is used to indicate that multiple molecules are used for the formula. In 3H₂O₂ that indicates that we are talking about 3 molecules of H₂O₂ subscript - This is a small number set in a smaller font and placed low to the elements. It indicates the number of each type of atom in the compound. For the formula 3H₂O₂ there are 2 subscripts. Both of them being the number "2" set small and low just after the letters H and O. Those subscripts indicate that there are 2 hydrogen and 2 oxygen atoms per molecule. element - This is the abbreviation for the elements used in the compound. In <span>3H₂O₂</span> there are 2 different elements. H to indicate hydrogen, and O to indicate oxygen.

A rail car moving at 10m/s collides with and connect to another stationary car. What is their final velocity?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

read this it might help some

When a moving object collides with a stationary object of identical mass, the stationary object encounters the greater collision force. When a moving object collides with a stationary object of identical mass, the stationary object encounters the greater momentum change.

What does a “fixed amount of fuel” mean?
klemol [59]

Answer:

A "fixed price" energy tariff means that your unit price for gas and electricity will not change for the duration of the plan. A variable rate means your energy price can vary during the plan. If you have a fixed price plan and your supplier announces a price rise, your rates will not change.
