Answer:

80.4 N

Explanation:

As the block is at rest on the slope, it means that all the forces acting on it are balanced.

We are only interested in the forces that act on the block along the direction perpendicular to the slope. Along this direction, we have two forces acting on the block:

- The normal reaction N (contact force), upward

- The component of the weight of the block, mg cos \theta, downward, where m is the mass of the block, g is the gravitational acceleration and \theta is the angle of the incline

Since the block is in equilibrium along this direction, the two forces must balance each other, so they must be equal in magnitude:

N=mg cos \theta

And by substituting the numbers into the equation, we find the size of the contact force normal to the slope:

N=(9.2 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(cos 26.9^{\circ})=80.4 N

what is the property of an object due to its mass by which it resists any change in its position unless overcome by force ?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Mass as a Measure of the Amount of Inertia

All objects resist changes in their state of motion. All objects have this tendency - they have inertia.

If a car moves with a uniform speed of 2m/s in a circle of radius 0.4m, what is its angular speed?
REY [17]

Answer:

The car's angular speed is \frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

Angular velocity is usually measured with \frac{radians}{sec}, so I'm going to use that to answer your question.

The relationship between tangential velocity and angular velocity (ω)  is given by:

V = \omega R

Using the values from the question, we get:

2 \frac{m}{s} = \omega (0.4m)

\omega = 5 \frac{rad}{s}

Therefore, the car's angular speed is 5 \frac{rad}{s}.

Hope this helped!
