When dealing with multiple forces acting on a body, it is advisable to draw a free-body diagram like that shown in the picture. There are four forces acting on the box: weight (W) pointing straight down, normal force perpendicular to the slope denoted as Fn, force used to push the box upwards along the slope and the frictional force acting opposite to the direction of motion of the box denoted as Ff. Frictional force is equal to coefficient of kinetic friction (μk) multiplied with Fn.

∑Fy = Fn - mgcos30° = 0
           Fn = (50)(9.81)(cos 16) = 471.5 N

When in motion, the net force is equal to mass times acceleration according to Newton's 2nd Law of Motion:

Fnet = F - μk*Fn - mgsin30° = ma
          250 - (0.2)(471.5 N) - (50)(sin 16°) = (50)(a)
          a = 2.84 m/s²

Which of the following represents a possible magnitude for the force of static friction when Xavier applied 72.1 Newtons of forc
lana66690 [7]

The possible magnitude for the force of static friction on the stationary cart is 72.1 N.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Applied force on the cart, F = 72.1 N</em>

<em />

Based on Newton's second law of motion, the force applied to object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

F = ma

Static frictional force is the force resisting the motion of an object at rest.

\Sigma F = 0\\\\F -F_f = 0

where;

F_f is the frictional force

F= F_f \\\\72.1 = F_f\\\\F_f = 72.1\  N

Thus, the possible magnitude for the force of static friction on the stationary cart is 72.1 N.

Are the units of the formula ma = mv2/2 dimensionally consistent? Select the single best answer.
Vesnalui [34]

To solve the problem we will simply perform equivalence between both expressions. We will proceed to place your units and develop your internal operations in case there is any. From there we will compare and look at its consistency

ma = \text{Mass}\times \text{Acceleration}

ma = kg \cdot \frac{m}{s^2}

At the same time we have that

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \text{Mass}\times \text{Velocity}^2

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = kg ( \frac{m}{s})^2

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = kg \cdot \frac{m^2}{s^2}

Therefore there is not have same units and both are not consistent and the correct answer is B.

If a 1 kg book has 46 Joules of gravitational potential energy how high is the shelf it is on?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

4.7m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1kg

Gravitational potential energy  = 46J

Unknown:

Height of the shelf  = ?

Solution:

The potential energy is due to the position of a body above the ground.

        Gravitational potential energy  = mgh

m is the mass,

g is the acceleration due gravity  = 9.8m/s²

h is the height which is unknown

                       46  = 1 x 9.8 x h

                       h  = 4.7m
